 Great calculator November 13, 2009
M. Lettner (Rogers, Arkansas)
I am one that has used a TI-86 all through high school, college and into my professional career. I had to have a different calculator to take the PE exam so my company likes the HP 33s so they let me borrow one. After getting used to it for it takes a bit to get used to, I was hooked on it. I like that it is very powerful but very small calculator. Very big display and easy to see equation and you can choose RPN or Alg. Of the calculators I have used (TI-35, TI-86, TI-89, HP-48, HP-49, & Casio 15) this is my favorite. Use TI-89 or HP-49 if you are needing a graphing calc., but if you don't then this is great for an engineering student or engineer.

Another great HP calculator. I've owned HP's since 1973 beginning with HP-35, HP-65, HP-41CV, and HP-48GX. A real added feature with the calculator is that is can do some functions using complex numbers. It is I believe the only remaining HP scientific calculator that uses RPN.

I was a long time user of the HP 48 series. I used that all through college. I'm a Civil Engineer by profession w/10 yrs experience. I mainly use the simple functions so this works great for me. The 4 buttons on the top of the calculator "eng, solve, modes, display" take up a big portion of the calculator. I'd prefer to have a larger screen. I really enjoyed larger screen of the HP 48 since it allowed me to see several lines that I'd already entered and swap lines when doing series of things, like closing a traverse. I know this one stores numbers and I can do all the functions of the HP 48 I just don't want to change how I was doing it before I liked seeing 3-4 lines at a time.
I like that this calculator is smaller and can fit in my front pockets. My old hp48 would have to balance on top of all the books and papers I was carrying to a conference room. I just put the hp33 in a pocket while I walk.

Warren White (North Carolina)
HP-33- it's one allowed for several national professional certification tests. You should get one, if that is what you plan to use, several months ahead of the test date, as it needs a fair amount of practice to familiarize yourself how it works. Once you learn, the 33 can be a real weapon though.
 spend more and get the HP 35s September 26, 2009

As a long time user of an HP 15c, I needed a new calculator. Wanting to stay with reverse polish notation (RPN), and needing a calculator which could be used with the professional engineer's exam, I bought an HP 33s. It's hard to distinguish the colors on the keys, the comma and decimal point in the display are hard to see and virtually indistinguishable. The V shaped layout of the keys are awkward. I think this calculator is a waste of money if you really use a calculator on a regular basis (say for work). It's now sitting on my shelf and I bought an HP 35s which also has RPN and is much much better. I still prefer my old HP 15c, which I still use after more than 20 years (it's on its last legs and I'll mourn the day it dies)!!
