IT ALL ADDS UP
Advantages: It does sums
Disadvantages: No clock, no scientific bits, bit ugly
...of this product is the Sharp Elsimate EL-334. It can take ten digits and mine is a grey-beige colour with the following design:
Tax buttons are dark yellow
The digit buttons are a dark mauve
The memory buttons are light blue
The On/off (C.CE) is pink
This mixture of colours is, frankly, vulgar. However, the layout of the calculator is fine and features a natty little "back arrow" button that allows to correct a figure on the display before you ...
...for some reason, you're adding up 100 and 100 and you accidentally type in 101 instead, you can press the back arrow button and 101 will be replaced with 10, leaving you free to enter the correct "0".
Another good feature is the "00" button. If you're typing in high round numbers like 10,000 you can press this twice instead of "0" four times. This would, I assume, be great for accountants and those who use high, round figures on a daily basis.

Casio MS-8V Calculator
Advantages: Robust design, easy to use
Disadvantages: None
...divide and multiply.
The Casio MS-8V does the job rather well, and that's good enough for me. I don't want to belittle my job as it can get a bit stressful at times, so the ease of use of the calculator makes MY job easier.
The Design
----------------
The casing is of a robust design, black in colour and generally gives a sturdy strong appearance; the look of a calculator gives the impression that it can take some stick. It hasn't got wings attached ...
...don't add up.
The buttons are nice and large. I have fairly large fingers, so guys like me appreciate just pressing one button at a time; I think it adds to the ease of use as well. Power
--------
This particular calculator is solar powered. In case you needed to know the battery inside the case is a solar cell battery 1.5 volt. Should you ever need to replace it (I doubt it) the battery number is LR54X1.
Features
------------
The display has ...

Excellent device
Advantages: Easy, durable
Disadvantages: None
I have searched far and wide for a simple calculator which has simple functions for what I need it to do. One day, our receptionist at work sent around an email asking whether we need any stationary, so I thought, YES, I need a calculator. I was secretly wishing that this calculator would fill the void in my work life;)
The next day, this puppy landed on my desk. I was so impressed with the functionality and usability of the calculator. It operates ...

Casio casio
Advantages: Durability, usability
Disadvantages: it lacks a few features as your maths gets more in depth
The best feature that you get with this model is its durability, i have had mine for well over 5 years. Being an avid mathematician, i use it time and time again and never has the screen blurred or ran out of battery, which is impossible as it has two way power. The natural display feature means that we can write equations and fractions the way we see them, and don't have to mess around with buttons that we would usually have to tamper with on other ...

Casio Calculator
Advantages: Functions, colour, 2 way power
Disadvantages: too complex to use
I bought this calculator for my A level examinations. It is terribly handy, I do a lot of maths and be it calculus, vectors, complex numbers or statistics, this calculator will help you a lot. Not only does it boast 403 functions, and most of the keys look like that should be on a UFOs spaceship, if you read the handbook and know how to access and use the functions it is great. These functions are not ones that allow you to cheat ( sadly :P) but ...
