Digital camera Review: DIFFICULT TO USE!
Summary: 1 Stars
i bought the calculator to school, after countless times of plugging it to the computer and trying to send stuff, it diddnt work. What infuriated me the most was that after paying 110 dollars for the thing, texas instruments website didnt give me an answer.Digital camera Review: Does the Job

I don't know anything about this calculator, but my fifteen year old son needed it for school and he likes it. Per him - It does everything he needs in his math class, plus he can play games on it and make cartoons!
I guess that is okay as long as he is making A's.
Digital camera Review: Does the job.

Bought this for my 14 year old daughter, as it was required by her Freshman math class. It does all she needs it to do, and her teacher indicates that it should serve her well through all 4 years of high school math.Digital camera Review: Easy to operate, does what it needs to do
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought my first TI graphing calculator in 1993 (the TI-85) and used that for several years until I was required to upgrade to an HP 48G+. Since those calculators had carried me through the past 16 years of college and work, I was wary when this year's "school supply list" required us to spring for a TI-84 Plus.
Since these calculators are often "required" for middle school through college these days, I understand how the manufacturer can get away with its exorbitant price tag. That being said, we were persistent bargain shoppers and pounced the day we saw the price take a nose dive.
The calculator is fairly straight forward to use, and batteries are included. We have found that school textbooks tend to have step-by-step tutorials on certain subjects, and that the teachers use the calculator daily in class (whatever happened to graphing with pencil and graph paper?). Because I have used a very similar calculator before, I have been able to instruct my student in every issue that has come up so far. We have not had to use the manual.
Overall, I have no problems with this calculator, which does what it needs to do. I do know these are a prime target for thieves at school (often turning up at pawn shops, where you can buy your own calculator back for about $45), so we are protecting the calculator as an investment. If your school gives you the option of using a TI-83, however, you can get essentially the same functionality at a lower price. (Go for it.)
Digital camera Review: Easy use- graphing calculator
Summary: 5 Stars
This calculator is super easy to use and is really great for high school math, and most likely college also! I love it.
