The TI-83 Plus is an outstanding calculator for the k-12 classroom "and" the college student entering any mathematical field!! Whoever wrote the review that this is not a valid calculator for calculus and beyond has not had any experience with this machine!! I had a TI-85 in my college undergraduate (Math) and it is equivalent to the TI-83 of today (more features now). At any rate, most calculus and beyond will need an integration tool to crunch numbers and minimize time (such as mathematica) and so the TI has limits as any of the calculators do.
The TI-83 Plus integrates as well as any handheld tool available!!
The TI-83 Plus has been the best thing since sliced bread for the High School Math classroom!! I couldn't have survived without being able to use it. With the updated apps and compatibility with TI-Navigator and Connect, not to mention with TI Interactive!!
I simply love the way this machine easily allows me to visually represent functions as well as view them in tabular form and manipulate them dynamically!!
my daughter needed it for school and they are expensive at the store. She loaned her first one to a friend who lost it (and couldn't replace it) and we had to purchase another one. We saw it on e-bay and won the bidding. To our surprise and delight we got it for $53.00 which was a great deal. It was shipped quickly and it was delivered in great shape. It is just what she needed. The model was in excellent shape. Looked and works just like the first one we bought at the store brand new. Texas Instruments TI-83 plus Graphic Calculator will not only see my daughter through her pre calculus class this year but she can take it to college with her next year. These calculators are built to stand up to lots of work and will last her a long time. and no, she won't be loaning this one to anybody.
This is somewhat of a complex calculator but a must have for high school students these days. The kids seem to be more in tune with how it works than I am. I now have 2 in high school and another to follow next year and they all seem to be happy with the calculator.
TI 83+ owns the market, schools and colleges require it, textbooks use it in their examples. Luckily, it is a good calculator. The guys at TI know how to make a calculator, and seem to be just as good at marketing!!
Great item for Jr. High and High School alegbra. Students learn to check their answers with this calculator and to graph problems. Can be used for several years of algebra!!
Great calc, but after all my searching and bidding..came to find out that my brother had 2!!!!!I could not believe it..for future reference always ask a sibling first.. anyway great trans, and shipping was the cheapest for sure. thx doll
The calculator is exactly as promised and the seller even printed and bound the manual from the Internet to replace the lost original. I'm very happy with this transaction.

I received the item in good time, the seller answered my questions within a day, but the calculator didn't have a case. The description said that the calculator came with the front case, but I didn't receive it. The calculator works fine though.
Works great for college!!!!!!!!!!!! Easy to use and i have never had a single problem with it!!!!!!!!!! Bought this one because i lost my old one, this is a very durable, functional, and useful calculator for the money!!!!!!!!!!!
I needed a calculator for class and was going to buy one at wal-mart but decided to look on ebay. This guy is honest and wOnDeRfUl!!! He even met me up because we were really close to eachother! Thanks so much!!!
Glad to have bought the item, it's for my son and he's happy about this item. He said it works great though it did not come with the manual, he said it would help a lot. Would be nice to have it too. Thanks.
