Customer Rating:
Summary: Great!
Comment: I use this for advanced algebra I and it works great as a scientific calculator! (I still have to have a graphing calculator, but that is too big to carry around all the time.) I use this for everything I do math-wise and it works great!
Pros: well...it does what it's meant to do, and does it well. And at a great price, too!
Cons: I left it in my binder without the cover, and I think making it turn on and off all day long broke it. We tried replacing the battery but that didn't work. Also, I like a slide-on cover better than the span-on cover that this calculator has. Still, I am completely satisfied with it!

Summary: TI-30x IIS
Comment: I have order this calculater a while ago. I was mad that the price of shipping is not clear. Moreover, I have recieved this item a week later than it supposed to be diliver. Therefore, I wrote a letter to the customer service. They reply me right the way with a full refund on the shipping. I recived the item with good quality eventually.

Summary: Annoying key problem.
Comment: First of all: I own a bunch of different calculators from the TI line,the TI-30, the TI-84, TI-89, and I owned a TI-83 at one point.
Ok, this calculator, the TI-30X IIS works, but I have an issue with the buttons.
The keys feel sticky almost.
Some times you push them, but the number doesn't register. You have to press with exactly the right amount of force to get it to register. And the tolerance for that force is very small. If you press down just a tiny bit to hard, or use just a tiny bit less force, the key-press doesn't register.
That said, the calculator works, and it has two lines of text.
The only reason I got this calculator was that I needed it for General Chemistry.

Summary: Don't buy! Get TI-30XS instead.
Comment: ----------------------
Update: TI just released the TI-30XS MultiView Calculator for a similar price and it is much, much better. The buttons work great and they've also improved on a lot of other features.
----------------------
I bought this calculator to take the FE exam. There are only a handful of approved calculators and so I chose this for the following reasons:
- Two line display
- I've been using a TI-83 Plus for almost 10 years and I thought that this would be easy to learn
- Solar - don't have to worry about batteries
- Inexpensive
I've been sorely disappointed with this calculator. The buttons are horrible! What good is a calculator if I can't type the information correctly? Also, the case is awkward and flimsy. Don't expect the same type of quality that you get with the graphic calculators, TI cut corners on this one. I don't recommend this calculator if you are going to be under tight time constraints because you will waste a lot of time fixing typing errors.
I've also had issues with the transition to a non-graphing calculator. It hasn't been as straight forward as I was hoping and the documentation is awful. I figure, if I'm going to have to learn a new system, I might as well go with a better calculator. I will likely go with the HP 33S Scientific Calculator (F2216A) and save this one as a backup for the exam.
