Overview
A Natural Textbook Display shows expressions as they print in books, while an icon-based menu makes the functions easy to find. The color screen draws graphs, and three-dimensional graphing is listed.
An improved Catalog function supports classroom use, and the exam list covers the major tests. The listing prints the screen size without a unit, so treat that figure with care.
Who it's for
High school and college math students who sit major exams. Buyers who prefer a rechargeable model should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Exam approval list
- Hard case and USB cable
- Screen size has no unit
- Memory size not listed
Performance notes
Fractions and roots appear the way printed math does, which cuts entry errors. Icon menus shorten the path to graphing tools. Run time depends on the batteries and screen use.
