Casio fx-300MS Plus 2nd Ed Scientific Calculator, 2-Line Display

This calculator is amazing. Reliable and perfect for my daughter for every day use at school. It easy use, the display is clear and easy to read . The size is ok for hand held. It works for easy to advance calculations. It look likes its built to last for long time.. I highly recommend to students and who need a dependab calculator..

This is a fantastic calculator with the usual Casio layout. I can read the display clearly in any lighting conditions (well, except for a very dark room), making it excellent for use outdoors or in a dim room. Numbers aren't as large as on most basic calculators, but their boldness and excellent contrast ensures they are just as legible. If your trusty fx-115MS finally died on you, this is as close as it gets to a direct replacement. Do NOT spring for the current fx-115ES unless you work in a well-lit office environment. I mainly use my calculator to work out angles and dimensions for woodworking and 3D modeling (at home) and machining (at work). I don't know how sturdy or dust-proof it is, but I absolutely trust it over my fragile, expensive smartphone to have in a work environment. Or any environment. I can't stand touch screens. Speaking of which...you may struggle to use this calculator with thick leather gloves, but with skinnier mechanic-type gloves you shouldn't have any issues. Spacing for the main number keys is 1/2" x 7/16" (13mm x 11mm) and spacing for the smaller keys in the upper block is 7/16" x 3/8" (11mm x 9mm). Definitely not as big as a basic calculator's keypad, but it's been perfectly fine for me.

My college kid is using it, and he likes it

For the price, this is a great calculator. It has all the standard functions I need as an accounting student. The layout of the buttons is slightly clunky, it's hard to explain. But I appreciate that there is a "Delete" button to undo a single character instead of having to completely clear and then re-type an entire equation when I make a mistake. I wish the screen were easier to see from all angles. From straight-above the calculator, the screen looks clear and easy to read. But if I have the calculator on my desk as I use it, I generally don't have my head positioned immediately above it. So I see it at an angle, which makes the screen much harder to read. A brighter background would help. Still, it's a good calculator for the price!

Great for Algrebra and reasonable priced.

Takes a little getting used to at first, but it becomes easy with practice. Like most Casio products, it’s reliable and packed with useful functions. The solar and battery power option is a big plus.

nice and work great

Works perfectly! I needed a non-graphing calculator for school, and I’m going to be honest — I looked for the cheapest one possible. But this one has worked great! I would choose this one again if I were to go back in time.
