Digital camera reviews of HP 33S Scientific Calculator (F2216A)
Digital camera Review: 3 years+ and going strong
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using this calculator on an almost daily basis in an engineering company for more than 3 years. The 1st set of batteries lasted 1 year 4 months. I have just put in the second set of replacement batteries after another 2 years.
The readability of the display is not really an issue once you get used to it. I have the old version with larger number display, but closer together.
The silver casing is now becoming a bit scratched, but looks well used. The carry case does a good job in protecting the calculator.
I use the program facility for a few short (20 line) programs. Anything more complicated is easier on the computer.
It took a while to get used to the keyboard layout, but now seems intuitive. I certainly prefer the enter key in the bottom RH corner near the other main operators and the calculator has its own dedicated STO button (both unlike the HP 35S).
RPN mode is normally used, but it is easy to switch to algebraic mode to allow other people to borrow the calculator.
I do not need the complication of a graphing calculator. Anything more complicated can be done on a computer more easily.
A printed manual is included (unlike the HP 35S).
Overall, after more than 3 years use of this calculator, it has not let me down and with the recent price falls, I would certainly recommend it.
