Positive key feel November 10, 2009 John Nitardy (Des Moines, WA, USA) I have always appreciated HP calculators, because of their positive feel of when you have depressed a key. This remains true of the HP35S, which I recently purchased. I have tried other calculators, because my great HP 11C was stolen. I decided to go back to HP and pay the price to have this feel.
No paper manual November 5, 2009 Steven C. Calkins (Byfield, MA USA) When this calculator first came out it came with a nice paper manual, the latest version only includes a CD. I can download a manual if I wanted it electronic. I miss the old fashion paper manuals.
HP35S November 1, 2009 Richard Touch Great HP calculator as usual. Price is excellent for the lowest cost RPN function calculator.
Nostalgic October 16, 2009 Just Anonymous (Georgia, USA) It's very hard to review a calculator because they tend to have so many functions and features that it's hard to do a quick review on it. However, I'm very glad that HP released this classic calculator.
At the end of the day, you can buy a calculator that has more features/functions than this one for less money. Some of the Casios have more features but that's not the reason most people buy this particular calculator. I bought it because I owned one of the original HP 35s and then a more modern HP 15C. The 15C still works but its too valuable to carry around. I grew up before computers when a good calculator was so much faster than a slide ruler (so that dates me a bit).
I don't do a ton of heavy trig or engineering anymore and I think the people at HP knew that the buyers of this calculator didn't do those kinds of calculations -- they designed it for the things that we use calculators these days. It's easy to use for what most of us use it for: small math problems, conversions from metric system to imperial, conversions from C to F degrees etc that makes you like this calculator. It has a ton of very easy to use features like that which makes it very nice. This calculator doesn't have memory expansion although it is programmable.
I do wish that they had put the stack manipulation buttons closer to the Enter Button, that's my biggest gripe.
Overall, if you grew up in the 70s or 80s, this is a great updated calculator to the titans of that era. Enough features so make it a true scientific calculator, not too many that its incomprehensible, very easy to use, looks great.
I wouldn't characterize it as a carry calculator, its a bit on the big side, my 12C is much better form factor to carry so this 35S sits on my den at home and it's always ready.
It's a great trip through memory lane but if you're a true scientific or engineering student, you can probably get one of the graphing calculators or some other super feature rich calculator.
A handy scientific calculator October 9, 2009 David P. Schulz This calculator exemplifies HP's quality. I'm very happy with it as a general purpose scientific calculator. The User's Guide is only available on line (it is printable) and it is very complete.
