...you cannot do on the Casio fx-83EX. But even now, at university, i still keep this calculator as it is so easy to use and has useful functions that you sometimes don't even get on the very expensive calculators!

Advantages: Easy to use, great natural display Disadvantages: None!
This is a really useful scientific calculator, and I'm glad i managed to get my hands on one! It's fairly inexpensive, very easy to use and the natural display helps lay things out well.
LOOK:
This calculator looks just how a scientific calculator should; sleek and well designed, but with enough funny symbols to make einstein ponder. The natural display is great. You can display fractions and roots, even frequency tables easily on the screen.

It has a fantastic stats mode; you can see frequency tables layed out on the screen, and at the press of two quick buttons you can get standard deviation, root-mean-squared deviation, and any expression from within the formulae!
All the simple functions are easy to find and use aswell, so it doesn't have to be used for fancy equations.

Advantages: Easy to use, large screen, large buttons Disadvantages: not solar powered
The Casio FX 83 ES is a definite must have for all those taking GCSEs or A levels. Although the Casio FX 83 ES is a little more expensive then most other calculators on sale, the Casio FX 83 ES is capable of everything from the standard addition and subtraction to more complex things like trigonometry and algebra. The case is very slim so the calculator does not take up a lot of space in bags or pockets while at the same time being very durable and ... ...The only disadvantage with the Casio FX 83 ES is that it is not solar powered however the batteries used can easily be found for sale at DIY shops and even major supermarkets. The instruction booklets that are supplied are very useful because not only do they teach you how to use the calculator there is also an appendix also teaches you both simple and complex mathematical operations. All in all this calculator is perfect for those doing GCSEs and ...

Advantages: Lightweight, easy to use, long battery life Disadvantages: So easy to use you wont want to stop using it!
I have been using this product for a long time now and I have to say that it has never let me down!
It is a stylish piece of equipment with great ergonomics and a very easy to read display.
I have to highly recommend this product for any students undertaking their GCSEs or higher - it is a scientific calculator so is ideal for courses such as A level chemistry.
The only downside to this calculator is that its so easy to use that you're mental ...

Advantages: QUICK AND USEFUL FOR STUDENTS> Disadvantages: CAN BE QUITE HARD TO HANDLE FOR INEXPERIENCED
...but I have had another Casio calculator and that has served me well too. Not the smallest of calculators but are very mathematical and are brilliant for working out the difficult equasions and sums and are useful for key stage 3 exams, GCSE's, A level's etc. I will not be changing my calculator unless the battery runs out. From my opinion, Casio are very reliable and so is this calculator. It looks good and just has a good feel about it. Once you ...

Advantages: User-friendly, natural display, long-lasting batteries Disadvantages: Probably can be confusing for inexperienced mathematicians
I have now owned the Casio fx-83ES for many years, it's gotten me through my GCSEs, my A-Levels and is still going strong now I'm halfway through my Maths degree! This calculator has all the functions you will need to complete practically any Maths qualification, and plenty more to boot.
What really sets it apart from the competition is the natural display, which allows users to see clearly what they are doing, as opposed to other calculators which ...

Advantages: great Aesthetics Disadvantages: Confusing interface
I own this calculator myself and it does pleasingly have allof the basic requirements any user might expect from a basic scientific calculator. However its interface is stunning for the price you pay for it. That is, the graphical layout is adaptive to the input that you create, this is especially useful if you are a visual thinker as it means you can view what you are doing in a much simpler way and eliminates the need for consistent use of graphics.
... ...more traditionally budget calculator has. by this I am naturally referring to the graphical frequency layout, especially useful to staticians.
However the only quarrel i have with this product is that with all of these features the controls do take time to learn. But as the battery life is very long i am sure you, as i have, will adapt and find this calculator a superb choice. ...

Advantages: Plenty of functions, and a sleek and slender look. Disadvantages: Higher price, and a little bit more complicated than other calculators
When I first saw this in the supermarket, I was a bit skeptical, because it was a higher price than the rest, and the others seemed to be just as benifical. However, after having a quick read about the product, I chucked my doubts to the side and purchased it, and I'm glad I did. It was well worth the money, probably the best scientific calculator on the market! It is fairly easy to use, and even looks better than most other calculators! I would ...

Advantages: Natural Display, cheap Disadvantages: Takes a few minutes to get used to.
This calculator, from a students point of view is perfrect. A calculator can't do much more than this without infringing on the exams boards banned calculator list. It is the newer, updated version of the FX 83MS (also a good calculator).
The natural display function of the calculator is the best of the additions from the 83MS and is extreamly useful as it gives exact answers wherever possible. It took a couple of times using it to get used to switching ... ...when decimal places are needed, but this is not hard to pick up.
This calculator is ideal from Key Stage 3 all the way to A2 level of maths and would also be fine for every day use. It has a protective case for when it is not in use and an extensive manual explaining the different functions of the calculator.
Strong, nice looking and very well working calculator. Recommended. ...

...importantly, needs a calculator.
Casio has always been the brand to go for when choosing a calculator for this purpose. Other brands, like Texet, have tried to take over the market but Casio provides the format that everyone is familiar with.
The main advantage of this is that it does what you need it to. It adds, subtracts, squares, cubes, multiplies, halves, divides and has many other functions. If you are on a GCSE or A-Level course then this ...

Advantages: It can to everything a calculator could be asked of Disadvantages: so many buttons and can be confussing to begin with
I had this calculator whilst I was in education and I can tell you now, it is one of the most reliable out there that I've come across. It was a little tricky with all the buttons, but once you know which button does what job then it really is a great bit of kit to own. Friends of mine had a different model to mine and personally there just wasn't any comparison. They all commented on how user friendly this one is when they borrowed it and eventually ...
