Texas Instruments - TI 83 Reviews

Out of all of the TI graphing calculators, this has everything you need through Calculus II, and is very well priced. You can get the silver addition for an aesthetically pleasing case.  You can get the more expensive models, but this really has everything you need.  It is easy to use, and pretty much self-explanatory.  I used this throughout high school and college math, and it was more than enough.  Lots of features I haven't even discovered yet.  Can be used to store information, play games, and of course, do schoolwork.  It's also widespread and available in… read full review »

This is one of the most useful items on my desk.  I use it on  a daily basis and it's much more convenient that my past calculators.  The computer access on the calculator is the most helpful tool I've ever used.  I also want to add that I have had plenty of calculators to measure up,, but none of them have compared!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! —… read full review »

I have had this item for several years now now and have never ever had an issue with it.  It takes a bit to learn but once you do, it will do anything you want it to do.  It has served me well, so far so good...but I will keep my fingers crossed!  I actually took a calculator class so that I could get the most out of my calculator.  I needed to use it for all of the math classes that I needed to take for college. — The only problem I have had so far is that I have had to replace the battery one time. —… read full review »

I never would have bought this calculator if it wasn't a requirement for my college algebra class. I also needed it for a Statistics class, and each time I learn a new way to use it I am even more impressed. Although I have listed as a con that it should come with a personal trainer, I understand it is not possible :) The instruction manual is a little tedious, but if you get everyone to show you what they know about it, pretty soon you'll be a master at it, and you'll as impressed with it as I am.… read full review »

We used this calculator a lot when I was in high school. It's high price tag used to scare a lot of people away when I worked in an electronics store. What people don't realize is that this calculator can do anything! You can even upload games. I also continued to use it throughout college and even now.… read full review »

This is the best calculator i have ever used. The only problem i have with it is that my memory keeps erasing. You can type messages in it, do any kind of math and even play games. This calculator does everything except breathe. I'd be willing to pay the price for a calculator that is as great as a… read full review »
