This is a fine calculator. It works great. Has more functions than I'll probably ever use. Then why do I not recommend it?
There is a design flaw.
I have attached 3 photos where you see the screen. You'll notice that when you turn the calculator on and look at it from an angle (as you would if you kept it on a desk while you were testing) the numbers are not legible. Your line of sight has to be almost perpendicular or direct to see it clearly. This does not affect the function of the calculator but it gets inconvenient when you have to hover over the calculator or lift it up to read it. In a test taking setting this constant movement was suspicious enough to warrant a warning from the proctor.
