Old, but still worth buying?
Review of Casio FX 82 Solar by NotMyToothbrush

TI83 is really good and relatively easy to use
Review of Texas Instruments TI 83 by kittkatt333

Advantages: It comes in several colours including pink, user friendly, good size screen, good memory
Disadvantages: The TI cable with link port is not included with the calculator, keys occasionally stick

In my opinion the main problem with this calculator is the price, I bought it to do the IB & it was expensive for a calculator. It has a very plastic feel to it, however it has proved to be very durable & has certainly lasted longer than other gadgets of ... Read review

A chocolate fix that adds up.
Review of Tobar Large Chocolate Calculator by danielclark691

Advantages: fun gift, very much like chocolate without the calories!
Disadvantages: smell can get annoying after a while.

I am sure a lot of you will have heard of Hawkins Bazaar and I used to receive a copy of their catalogue from time to time. This is a number of years ago and I paid just under £10 for this Chocolate Calculator. The calculator looks like a bar of milk choc ... Read review

Review of Casio MX 8 by jo-1976

Advantages: Large screen, generous buttons, easy to use, dual power
Disadvantages: Not pocket sized but still lightweight and small enough to transport easily

Mental arithmetic is not one of my strongest points by any means and I find the monthly task of recording and then adding up all my mileage for work a pretty onerous and loathsome task. Fortunately, I have a reliable and very easy to use calculator to as ... Read review
