Texas TI-30 Xa Solar

Pros: Costs next to nothing, does all your basic functions

Cons: Doesn't graph, but what do you expect?

Review: First of all, let me start by telling you what this calculator won't do. It won't graph functions or equations for you, nor will it solve complex, multidimensional matrices. It won't calculate complex or two-variable statistics or...

Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, does complete most tasks, good for students up to Geometry. (8th grade)

Cons: Crowded Layout, battery powered, (should be solar), poor functionality, and only 3 memory slots

The Bottom Line: Only took 50 Bazooka Joe Comics to get me one of these. Just kidding basic calculator, for basic functions nothing more nothing less.

Review: It has always been my policy to try and find a good use for items I purchase. Most of the time these purchases are under researched impulse buys that were required to complete a task and made with such haste that one does not even consider the...

Pros: Easy to use, intuitive keyboard, sturdy and virtually unbreakable.

Cons: Very poor design of memory functions.

Review: As an initial warning, I must state that I have been using an TI-30 for the last eleven years, and I love it. This opinion may be a bit biased in favor of the TI-30.

Overview: The TI-30 is a basic scientific calculator, offering some...

Pros: Inexpensive, durable, easy to use

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: I recommend the TI 30Xa for its combined strengths in durability, ease of use, and affordability!

Review: I purchased this calculator as it was required for two of my high school classes, pre-calculus and physics. I was surprised at the affordability of the calculator.

This particular calculator is very easy to use. I would speculate that even...

Pros: Very Durable, Affordable, Easy to read display screen, easy to press keys,

Cons: Might be expensive at Gift shops ect. Recommend buying at Kmart, Target, Staples, OfficeMax ect.

The Bottom Line: NA

Ok, I have to say the TI-30Xa solar Texas Instruments calculator is by far the most useful calculator I ve ever used. It is ideal for Algebra students entering high school. I have been using mine for over 3...

Pros: Inexpensive, simple construction

Cons: All of the problems states above

Review: This calculator has behaved erratically since I bought it (and another of the same model for my partner) two years ago. The buttons are both overly sensitive to the point that you have to be extra careful not to brush against another number as you...

Pros: Never needs batteries, small

Cons: easy to lose

Review: It has gotten late and i decided to write an epinion on something but couldn't figure out what to write on, so i decided to write on the trusty calculator sitting next to my computer. I have owned this calculator for well over a year, and have used...

Pros: Large buttons that are easy to press and see.

Cons: On a standard slanted desk, calculator will wobble while pressing buttons

The Bottom Line: It can do anything you'll ever really need in life. For $12, if you break it, you can still replace it without breaking the bank.

Review: Introduction

Let me start by saying that I have been using this calculator for about 2 years and I think it's great! It has never failed me.

Pros

The buttons are large and the print on them is, too. It has...

Pros: Cheap, has solar panel, relatively big buttons, more than enough functions for scientific work.

Cons: reliability: I've seen couple of them dead; hard to read purple on gray.

The Bottom Line: Make your boss buy it to you for your work.

Review: I needed a calculator for my work in a molecular biology lab. It had to do logs, 1/x, constants and regression. So, I took a catalog and figured that TI 30X solar fits my needs and was the cheapest model of all listed. I had been working well for...

Pros: Solar, parenthesis, price, back-space key, 3 memory locations, stays clean, design

Cons: Somewhat cheaply made/plastic feel

Review: I have used this calculator at work for over 5 years and I have always had good results. The solar panel works well under fluorescent lighting. I especially like the 3 memory positions and parenthesis for performing longer equations without paper...
