Amazon.com Product Description Calling all engineers--Hewlett-Packard's HP32SII Scientific Calculator is the calculator for you. With 384 bytes of memory, 26 variable keys, more than 100 built-in scientific and mathematical functions, and RPN data entry, you'll find everything you need for efficient and fast calculating in this compact unit.We like Hewlett-Packard's HP Solve feature, which lets you solve for any variable without having to rewrite your equation. And, like most scientific calculators, the HP32SII can perform decimal/hour/minute/second conversions, polar/rectangular/angle conversions, unit conversions, base conversions, and arithmetic. The LCD can display one line with 12 characters and is bright enough for most environments. The calculator runs on three LR44 batteries, which come with the unit.

Like the Man said, THE ROLLS ROYCE of calculators August 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have a 33s, and it is a piece of trash compared to this one. It is cluttered with stupid keys like the % key, and the upper keys. It does have more memory, but it's usually # of variables and registers that limit programming, so the extra memory never comes into play. Also, some idiot decided to put the keys in a V shape. In addition to this, the 33s has a cheap apprearence and feel.
Then there is the 35s with painted key functions, and the stupid "i" key. You don't need this for complex numbers or an identifier. There is no sum key either. It is also too bulky, but does have the standard nice feed back feeling on the keys. But it also has the 4 stupid shift keys. It also lacks an e key which is essential.
The 32sii is the ABSOLUTE ROLLS ROYCE. It has a well made appearence and feel. It is easy to program and has as many variables and registers as the others. It also has well thought out keys and positions. It is not cluttered with stupid keys of the others. It does have a sum key which is very useful. It also has a large number screen without the stupid clutter of two lines and baby numbers. There is just no comparison. The 32sii is the best one ever made.

I've been using HP calcs for 33 years, starting with the HP 35 I bought new in 1974 up to the HP 50G that I just bought a couple weeks ago. I still have 8 HP calcs, and greatly value them all, but the one model I would choose to be marooned on a desert island with is my trusty 32sII. (I would, of course, want a lifetime supply of batteries.)
Brilliant! September 9, 2006 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is an excellent engineer's calculator. I am a Electrical Engineer and have used this for more than 5.5 years. RPN is great and this calculator looks simple yet powerful.
I have used TI82, Casio fx-4500PA and a few other Casio calculators in the past. These look fancy and more "engineering" than HP32SII BUT they don't perform as quickly or as well as HP32SII.
I am using this HP32SII on a daily basis!

When my old HP 32s broke, several years ago, I run to the store and bougth a 32sII, even though I was not doing too much technical calculations anymore. I was used to this unit, that had been with me several years while studying, helping me to solve a huge amount of engineering problems.
If you're looking for a scientific calculator without graphics, you can't be wrong with HP32sII. RPN notation is very convenient, Quality build is very good, I've always liked its keyboard (somewhat harder than cheaper calculators), and the size and weight of the unit are comfortable.
This device transpires confidence.
Finest Calculator Ever Made April 19, 2006 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I lost my HP32SII last week and I'm heart-broken! Simply put it was the finest calculator and engineer's friend. The replacement model 33s has none of the feel and simple beauty that the 32SII has. The RPN mode is so easy to learn and makes long calculations a breeze. The keys are firm and give positive feedback when you press them. The size is just fine for pant or shirt pockets. Try any TI, Casio, etc. calculator out there. None compare to Hewlett-Packard's Scientific Calculator 32SII.
