Overview
Not a basic scientific model, this is a full-color graphing calculator that links several views of the same problem on one screen. Files move between the handheld, a computer and a tablet, and a rechargeable battery powers it.
Students sitting the main entrance and AP exams gain a calculator the test boards accept, plus software for homework on a computer. The limitation is the software license, which is time limited, and the screen is on the smaller side.
Who it's for
An algebra, precalculus or science student who wants one approved calculator for class and exams is the target. Buyers who need symbolic algebra should check the listing for that function before ordering.
Pros and cons
- Approved for several major exams
- Student software included
- Shares files with computer and iPad
- Screen size is modest
- Software license is time limited
- Plastic case only
- Listing gives conflicting size figures
Performance notes
The calculator links tables, graphs and equations so a change in one updates the others. A rechargeable battery means no spare cells are needed during a semester. The included software duplicates the handheld interface on a computer, which helps with homework and teaching.
