Unlock Your Calculator’s Power
By Amazon Customer on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2022
Set Amazon search category to Books. Type “HP Prime Calculator”. Find textbook quality Arithmetic, Algebra, and College Math resources for the cost of a fast-food meal. Don’t let the inexpensive prices fool you. These are great resources that help you unlock your calculator’s power. Best Math Tool in Today’s Classroom. Most powerful Math assistant allowed in today’s classroom. With phones and other Internet electronic devices being banned, the HP Prime Calculator will give you a virtual assistance that allows to acquire and become proficient with any math skill from arithmetic to advanced calculus. HP Prime Calculator is a real sleeper, the usefulness of Matlab or Wolfram Mathmatica in a tool that is easy to use. Textbook style input by templates with vibrant color touch screen allow for easy entry of math problem, plus flyout popup menus and soft key tabs make work a pleasure. Its textbook output with built-in power functions and applications is easy augmented by your functions. Start your understanding of your calculator by using your familiarity with Arithmetic to concentrate on the Prime’s interface and textbook style input and output feature. After the quick review of your Arithmetic, use the Algebra and College Math textbooks to learn advanced features of your calculator be viewing their hundreds of applications. The same applications can serve as invaluable aid for High School Algebra, Advanced Algebra, and Statistic courses. Let the eBook listed serve as a handy reference. It can be viewed on your phone, tablet, or computer. Note that the Arithmetic and College Math paperbacks found includes references to YouTube videos using screenshots and virtual emulator. These screenshots and emulator allow you to see your calculator in action. A web reference is given in the paperbacks for free parallel web-based material that is digital linked to all the paperbacks’ references and their YouTube videos. See Amazon Book HP Prime Calculator. Search listing for explanations of the shown screens in this review. HP Prime Calculator has a download identical virtual version for Windows and Mac and plus HP connectivity program that allows you to use your computer for work at home and then easily transfer your work to your handheld HP Prime Calculator for classroom use. To augment your HP Prime handheld classroom Calculator, there is a free/lite version of the HP Prime Calculator for iPhone and Android phones and tablets. Plus, a paid Pro version with programming. The phone and tablet free/lite and Pro version allow you to have a HP Prime with you at all times. Using variables for functions and nested functions you can accomplish limited programming but extremely powerful programming tasks on any versions of HP Prime, free/lite, Pro, virtual, or physical calculator. Below, we give you some possible starting points for variable creations in math courses. We like programming through variables as it works for handheld, virtual, pro, and free/lite versions. Search the internet for text and video instructions on how to use these powerful variables. You can easily add these variables to your handheld. Using copy and paste highlight the desired collections of functions you wish to add. Transfer them to your virtual Window or Mac HP Prime Calculator. Next backup the virtual and use this backup to restore your handheld HP Prime Calculator. Remember to rename handheld as it now has virtual name. Note for copy and paste are in computer form but will show in calculator in textbook form.

The internet search function is your friend. Lastly, we not that the HP Prime Calculator is two calculators in one. A quick startup would be to use the simpler HOME calculator arithmetic side. The other calculator is the CAS, Computer Algebra System, an algebraic, calculus, and advanced math calculator that requires more time and resources to master. With Covid-19 and the use of virtual schooling students have fallen behind. As there are two calculators in one with the HP Prime Calculator the HP Prime HOME side can be used to learn the calculator for students in Algebra and Advanced Math courses but can also be used as a bridge to help upper elementary middle school student with gaps in their arithmetic knowledge. Search Amazon and the web for resources on using the HOME HP Prime Calculator side for these younger students. Giving them a crutch to temporarily plug their gaps while preventing them from falling further behind is valuable use of the HP Prime physical Calculator.

Disappointed – Avoid This Calculator
By MK on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2025
I had high hopes for this calculator, but it’s been a frustrating experience. First, the 0 button broke not long after I started using it, which is pretty essential for, well, math. It didn’t even come with a power brick—just a cable. And that cable only works if you angle it just right while charging, which is super annoying. Worse, the calculator won’t charge using a regular adapter—it only works when plugged into a laptop. That’s incredibly inconvenient. But the worst part by far is the battery. It fluctuates like crazy. I charged it to 100% before a test, and suddenly it dropped to 75%, then when I plugged it back in, it read 0%. I don’t know if we got a defective unit, but the battery issue is unacceptable. Save your money and look for a more reliable option.
