Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus Graphing Calculator Reviews By Customer
I will admit up front that I am an HP RPN snob -- I am 46 years old and have been making use of RPN given that I was a college student. So making use of ANY algebraic calculator can be a bit of a challenge for me.That said, this calculator is required by almost each and every student from 8th grade by means of college level classes and so I reluctantly plunked down the money and purchased one of these for my son. I hate it and I personally will not use it. IF I have to make use of a thing that calls for algebraic mode I use the HP 35s Scientific Calculator and this review is mainly in contrast towards the HP 35S (it would be unfair to compare it to my trusty HP 15Cs because those long went the way from the dodo bird).The TI is much heavier and bulkier than the HP 35-S. Even so, being created completely of low-cost plastic and not having its own protective case, it's going to get clobbered in my son's backpack -- which typically weighs a good 20 pounds on any offered day. But he has to have it so what option does he have...The keys are noisy and spongy compared to the HP (which has a good soft and crisp "tick" sound).I have a blue calculator (my son likes blue) and many in the labels are a lighter shade of blue printed on blue plastic -- what human aspects genius came up with *that* 1. You invest 5 minutes wanting to read the button labels just attempting to come across the function you want.The TI is lacking numerous with the native "math" functions which make the HP so appealing. If you are doing statistics, carrying out permuations and combinations on the HP is really a built in function. You are able to program them on the TI but that takes time and yet another degree of ability that most students won't have.And even though Algebraic calculators normally have the benefit of having the more intuitive "=" sign, this calculator doesn't even have that going for it -- you might have to hit

This calculator is a solid performer but tries to do too much with apps,etc when it just doesn't have the horsepower. I use this calculator strictly when I have to and only for math - e.g., exams and tests when I'm not allowed to use anything better. Still, even then, I feel like I'm in a time warp - seriously - a mini B&W screen for working with math, but high-res color displays for making phone calls?IMHO, the best graphing calculator, by far, is FluidMath (MathJournal is a clunkier option but handles higher level differential equations). Of course, FluidMath (& MathJournal) require Tablet PCs, but once you get over that hurdle, you'll never go back. With FluidMath (and to a much lesser extent, MathJournal) you just hand-write your math on a virtual sheet of paper on your TabletPC. You can write multiple expressions on the same page, create and compare one or more graphs, solve equations, copy typeset versions of your handwriting to Word, etc. Of course, Tablet PCs are bigger than the TI-84, but as a student I would be carrying a laptop with me anyway, so that doesn't really matter. Some of my classmates think it's cheating to use FluidMath, but several have put a Tablet PC on their Christmas list. My teacher didn't know about FluidMath, but now uses it daily during class on his electronic whiteboard. It's a brave new world that I've started in my school.So if you want to experience the future (and, ironically, the past) then get a tablet PC with FluidMath and start handwriting your equations the way God intended for you. And, please -- if there are any Department of Education people reading this - please get FluidMath accredited for exams so I can sell my TI to someone who will appreciate the last dinosaur.

I purchased this calculator for my daughters pre-calculus class. Sheused the tutoral to become familiar with the product and found it very easy to use. If I had to purchase it again, I would have gone with the silver edition to obtain more memory. I found the best price through this sight and delivery came before we had expected.

I was really satisfied with the purchase. I was a bit sceptical about acquiring a refurbished electronic product. The price tag was great, the service was wonderful and we are extremely satisfied with the product. I'd purchase from this vendor again without hestiation.
