I would have added this calculator to my "Love It!" list, if I thought it were possible to actually "love" a calculator. When I thought about it, though, no matter how much I like a particular graphing calculator, it still has to do...
Pros: Lots of advanced features, allows for tricky calculations Cons: Very complex and sometimes difficult to use
Last year, my roommate looked at me quite quizzically when I pulled out a scientific calculator to balance my checkbook. Was it overkill? Perhaps. But what she didn't realize is that I'm perpetually dumb when it comes to mathematics, and this certain...
Pros: battery life, sleek look :) Cons: too old, no custom features
I have at one point in time owned and operated almost every TI graphing calculator, and it would only be proper to review the TI-82 and give the advantages and disadvantages of this unit.
As cleverly stated in my title, it is obvious that the...
Pros: just about everything you could need for math class Cons: when the batteries die, it erases whatever programs you've put in the calculator (games, messages, etc.)
This handy little instrument was my companion throughout many a complicated high school math lecture. It remained by my side through chemistry, earth science, astronomy, and meteorology. It was my aide during my placement test for college mathematics....
Pros: good basic machine, reasonable price Cons: none for me
For a statistics course at our local university, I had to purchase this calculator. I am really glad I did! At first, I was intimidated. The user's manual is larger than the calculator itself. However, our teacher walked us through the functions we...
Pros: Your best bet financially as well as power-wise for High School! Cons: Outdated, support may be little now, no complex numbers, etc...
(Note: this review covers the old, old, old school TI-82 - yes, the boxy one!)
Back in 8th grade, I was told that new calculators were recommended for next year's Honors Geometry class. Ah, it seems like yesterday that I coaxed my parents...
Pros: Easy to use, cheap, and has all the necessary features for high school students. Cons: Is outdated by new calculators, and probably not enough features for college students
I bought this calculator a long time ago, for my Algebra 2 class. It worked fine for its time. There were better calculators on the market, but this was the cheapest and the teacher for the class recommended the TI-82.
Pros: Inexpensive and Easy to use Cons: Blue LCD figures, on screen, is hard to read
When I entered my first year in high school, I was told that I needed a new calculator. Not the $5 ones from K-mart but a $100 one. I was shocked! I couldn't believe why I needed a $100 calculator just for school. As time passed, I began to use it not...
Pros: Versatile and all you need in most environments. Easy to use. Cons: Battery life, and 28k memory size.
I have used multiple calculators through the years; Texas Instruments, Casios and others, but the TI-82 is the only calculator I have actually 'enjoyed' using. There are multiple reasons why I fell in love with this calculator and there are many...
Pros: Lots of Functions, Durable, Fast Cons: Hard to use at first, may be discontinued
At first, like many people, when I heard about an $80 calculator, I was surprised, and was thinking that it could not possibly be worth that much. Boy was I wrong. The TI-82 is the best calculator that I have ever had.
Pros: Good entry level calculator for algebra and pre-calc. Cons: Does not have advanced level calculus features.
I acquired my TI-82 earlier this year. I thought that I could have a second graphing calculator that I could keep at my office so that I would not always be carrying my TI-86 back and forth to campus. I came into the calculator second hand, with no...
Pros: Can do many many functions. Good battery life Cons: Can cause you to fail out if you have games on it. Is really hard to get it to do what you want it to do unless you are experienced with graphing calculators. The screen isn't really that high of resolution.
This was the second TI graphing calculator I bought. Before I owned this one, I had the newer TI-83, which has a couple of added features, and is only slightly easier to use. Why did I buy this you ask? I simply wanted to play the Final Fantasy game...
The other reviewers are correct when they say that the TI82 is a good calculator. It's very useful and fairly easy. However, there have been improvements since this calculator came out.
After Texas Instruments made this calculator, they came...
Pros: It is a true beauty in a world of shielded hatred of users Cons: I want to buy one with my epinions money, but I need about 60 more dollars
I felt that my Most Popular reviewer position was in danger, so I decided it was time to impart upon you all my opinions on the SINGLE GREATEST CALCULATOR OF ALL TIME...The TI 82.
You'll notice that the TI82 is not the highest numbered...
