Amazon.com Review

There are many inexpensive scientific calculators on the market, but few boast the two-line display and other advanced features users get with the TI-30x IIS. The display shows the equation you are creating on the top line, and the numbers or symbols you are currently entering on the second line. Once the equation is solved, the results are displayed on the second line, and you can use the four arrow keys on the front of the calculator to edit the original equation in any way you like for a recalculation. Better still, pressing the up arrow repeatedly lets you browse through a cache of dozens of previous calculations, meaning you can look back to see the answer to a problem you solved two minutes ago, two days ago, or whenever.

The device uses solar power when possible but can fall back on the internal batteries (which are included) if there isn't enough light. The buttons wiggle around a little too much and require a firm keystroke to register input, but the fact that input can be followed by looking at the output on the first line helps to cut down on mistakes. There is a shift key that doubles the functions of most buttons, and although the TI-30X IIS isn't festooned with as many buttons or functions as some other calculators we've tested in this price range, it's still very capable. There are three angle modes (degrees, radians, and grads), scientific and engineering notation modes, and even one- or two-variable statistical modes. Five variables can also be assigned to their own memory slots. The documentation is lacking, as everything is presented on a single folded sheet of paper, but Texas Instruments did manage to pack several illustrated examples on the page. The calculator comes with a snap-on cover that fits on the back of the device when you are using it. The calculator carries a one-year limited warranty. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

Two-line display
Relatively inexpensive
Handles one- and two-variable statistical calculations

Cons:

Weak documentation
Buttons wiggle a bit too much

Amazon.com Product Description

The new two-line TI-30X IIS with the memory retention feature retains previous entries, memory values, and individual statistical elements, and is a great value for general math, algebra, trigonometry, statistics, science, and much more. It allows you to enter, delete, insert, and edit individual statistical data elements, and displays trigonometric functions in degrees and radians. It performs common and natural logarithms, fractions and fraction/decimal conversions, and degrees, minutes, seconds/decimal degrees conversions. The calculator features durable plastic keys and a protective cover, with a quick reference card and guide for easy assistance.

nice calculator.......2007-05-14

good stuff! buy one! has all the keys and functions you need!

Does what it's supposed to. Nothing more........2007-05-12

This calculator is a very basic scientific calculator. I recommend getting it if your school has a rule against graphing calculators and/or you are a cheap person who doesn't want to buy TI82 or higher or equivalent. I've never regretted buying this to replace the first one I bought for 5 dollars earlier that broke from old age.(I guess you can't expect a lot for 5 dollars postage)

I hate the buttons on this calculator!.......2007-04-09

I had to get this calculator for a professional engineers' exam (it was one of 4 approved calculators to take into the test). I've been using it to study and HATE how difficult the buttons are to press. I'm quite speedy on my Texas Instruments TI-82 but this one is painfully rigid. I originally thought it was a good idea to go with an approved calculator that resembled by TI-82 to most so I wouldn't have to relearn where all the functions are. Now, I'm second-guessing that decision and hope I'm not too fast on it during the exam so that I don't come up with wrong answers. My fingers are crossed but I really do not like this calculator so far... if you have a choice, go with another one.

Probably why the professor recommended it.......2007-03-09

This calculator is easy to use for the statistics problems I need it for. The probability key is pretty intuitive. Worth the money.

great calculator.......2007-02-26

i bought this calculator for my biostatistics class. it has been great except for one thing. i can't figure out how to do factorials on it. other than that, it's perfect. highly reccommended.
