Aldi was meant to have a replica one that has solar power too for only $4.99. But it was recalled lol.
I wouldn't like to risk taking a replica into a uni exam… but that's just me!
It looked like a rebadged Casio. It maybe have been recalled because it wasn't a rebadge but a fake.
If you look closely at this pic, you can see it doesn't have the 'empty fraction' symbol, which allows you to write a fractional expression as you would on paper- ie, you can see the whole thing all at once, not some 2km long string. I pity those students who have to use this
Yes. Also it uses the hat symbol for the power button and not a visual representation. Definitely not rebadged.
I am now more convinced that it was recalled because it took liberty with Casio’s design. Probably after a complaint from Casio.
I think Casio’s visual representation is the best of all calculators for school kids.
Im still waiting for it to go on sale for $8.90, thanks for posting.
Previous sale: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/231590An excellent calculator, approved for use in most school and uni mathematics courses (possibly all). A great price too.
My Fx 100AU still going strong!
My casio fx100s is still going strong. I love it. The engineering notation just made my life easier.
I remember destroying my casio fx100c so Mum would buy the new at the time, casio fx100s.
FX100 does so much more than the 82 and there are cheaper calculators that do the same.
Unless you're a student who has to use an approved calculator in class or in exams I don't know why you'd want to spend anything on one.
If you just want a basic calculator, there are a thousand phone and computer desktop apps. Many built into your computer. Find one that's reputable and accurate and you won't need a calculator.
A spreadsheet even more. Libre Office Calc is free. MS Excel costs but is the standard.
Specialized math software does even more.
