Casio HR150TER

Advantages: Good Price, Does that it says it will, Solar powered
Disadvantages: None that i can think of

...I bought this calculator at my local woolworths as i was after a scientific calculator and one that was cheap(i paid under £10 for this one which seemed a good price). The calculator is made by Casio which are a well known brand for making anything from calculators to TV's . The dimensions are 84x155x12mm and it is a light too which is a bonus. The keys are large enough for most people and all the writing is clear on and above the keys. This scientific calculator with has 249 functions (164 scientific functions) - including statistic functions. It is primarily aimed at secondary school student but i reckon it will be fine for almost any function unless you need the functions of a graphic calculator It is solar powered so it doesn't require any batteries in order to function however as with all solar powered products,you just...

Advantages: Good qualtiy, good performance
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Every good mathematician and scientist will know how crucial it is to have a scientific/financial calculator of a good quality to aid them in their work. It has many functions such as simple and compound interest calculation, day calculation, amortization, coversion, cost, sell, margin and statistics. It is operated by batteries and normally has a solar cell, even though this particular calculator does not have the solar power functionality but anyone who buys one from elsewhere will be able to sue their solar cell. The Casio has plastic keys and is also of an appropriate weight and size so that it is convenient to sue as well as being useful. It makes many financial aspects of jobs less complicated so i would recommend it to anyone thinking of buying it. It is expensive but worht it in the long run.... Read review

Advantages: Very good quality graphic calculator
Disadvantages: Speed of 'graph' calculations and lots needed to learn to use it

...The Casio fx-9750G is the calculator I now use at college. It seems to be the standard calculator to use now at AS and A level, as I know other sixth forms other than my college who now solely sell these to their students. The look and layout : - The Casio fx-9750G is a quite chunky calculator with dimesnsion of 178mm x 89mm x 21mm, as one might expect of a graphic calculator, but it is not unnattractive to the eye. It comes in an assortment of colours, mine being green, but all (that I know of) have a white cover and front surface. The calculator has some attractive, if pointless, curves in its body, but to be honest, when choosing a calculator I don't think look should have a great deal of influence. The layout of the calculator is very good. The screen, dimensions 36mm x 62mm, give ample room to carry out calculations and is... Read review
