Product Description
Leery of "special edition" products, we regarded the TI-83 Plus Silver Edition with some healthy skepticism. It's silver--so what? As you may have noticed, in the post-iMac era, everything electronic seems to boast cool translucent or glittery casing. However, the features of the TI-83 Plus Silver Edition are substantial, offering useful, powerful extras at a remarkable value.

Leery of "special edition" products, we regarded the TI-83 Plus Silver Edition with some healthy skepticism. It's silver--so what? As you may have noticed, in the post-iMac era, everything electronic seems to boast cool translucent or glittery casing. However, the features of the TI-83 Plus Silver Edition are substantial, offering useful, powerful extras at a remarkable value.

While the mathematic and graphing tools are comparable to the TI-83 Plus, the Silver Edition boasts significantly improved speed and memory. Its processor is 2.5 times faster, and it has over 1.5 MB of memory--10 times that of the TI-83 Plus. These upgrades make the Silver Edition a significantly improved graphing tool, enabling you to work faster and save more of your equations and programs.

Like the TI-83 Plus, the Silver Edition has a large, easy-to-read 64 x 96 pixel LCD that fits 16 characters and 8 lines. Altering the contrast of the screen is intuitively easy, as is the key layout and graphing interface. Mathematic tools are substantial, including viewing equations, graphs, and coordinates simultaneously; advanced statistics and regression analysis, graphical analysis, and data analysis; and tools for engineering, financial, logarithm, trigonometry, and hyperbolic functions. The calculator is ideal for students in algebra, calculus, and statistics, as well as those taking the PSAT/NMSQT, SAT I or II, and AP College Board Tests.

The calculator is also rich in tools for those studying biology, chemistry, or physics, including a pre-programmed periodic table. Other programs included with the calculator include a spreadsheet, organizer for phone numbers, puzzle pack, probability simulation, and CBL/CBR applications.

The most exciting bonus of the Silver Edition is TI-Graph Link, which lets you connect the calculator to a computer and download programs from Texas Instruments' Web site (http://education.ti.com) and from enthusiast sites like www.ticalc.org. There you'll find thousands of programs and games for TI graphing calculators, as well as a TI-83 Plus tutorial, electronic guidebook, programming support, and discussion groups.

The calculator uses four AAA batteries and one lithium battery for backup. All batteries are included, as well as a hard slide cover, the TI-Graph Link software and cable, and a remarkably readable 60-page instruction manual. Overall, the improved power, faster speed, and included TI-Graph Link for a remarkably low price make this a truly special "special edition," and we have to admit that the silver casing does look pretty cool. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

Ordered on a Saturday....received on Monday. Can't get much faster than that. Product exactly as advertised. Would deal with this seller again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.


2 out of 5 stars Eh.   October 29, 2009
Lord Dubose (New York)
I bought this calculator for $120, and although I had some gripes with the convoluted combination of buttons I had to press in order to get certain results, it worked well and seemed fairly versatile. But one day, five months after I bought it, the display went completely wonky. I performed a master reset, which worked for three days, and then the display screwed up again. Shortly thereafter, the calculator stopped working altogether. I called customer service, and they advised me to try all the things I had already tried. They didn't seem to understand that it wasn't simply out of batteries, but dead. And now I can't return it, having lost the receipt when I moved shortly after buying the calculator (mea culpa, I admit), but for God's sake, I still have the packaging, which has a little box with a serial number and says "Proof of Purchase," but according to TI, does not Prove that it was Purchased. They gave me the options of 1.)Drop $120 on a new calculator, 2.)Drop $170 on our TI 84 Plus, now with extra unnecessary features, or 3.) Have a nice day, sir.

Arrived early, great condition, and my teenage son did not even know it was used!


5 out of 5 stars Good-quality calculator   October 20, 2009

My teacher asked me to get a TI calculator for my Algebra class. Then, I came up with buying one at amazon.com because it's cheaper than buying at local retail stores with the same quality. Also, the delivery was as described, not fast nor late. I will buy more at this website.
