Evaluaciones de clientes para HP Prime

I can not rate a product, you have not send yet.

I could "play" with the HP Prime for a hour. The keyboard feeling is good. You can type pretty fast without looking. The touch screen is clear and very responsive. It's intuitive to handle. The gestures make sense.
But HP choosed a very awkward color combination for the blue and orange inscriptions. These have nearly no contrast, You can barely read.. You have to wobble the calculator around to be able to read the inscriptions. This maybe worsened by the unprecise engraving. The keys just look cheap ! Probably after a while you can memorize the most often used keys and then it might be not so frustrating.

I got it yesterday, so I dont have graet experience at the monent. But because I'm using HP-calculators for more then 30 yaers, I was able to get used quit quickly. For me the big improvements: the color-display, the touch-display, the speed, the absolut compatible, but separated fields of calculation, the usability. Only I'm missing hardly the "last-x"-function or/and an "undo"-function.

I am going to adopt this for my college classes. The emulator is terrific also. Being able to show the operations on a computer projected image makes explanations so much easier.
Jose and staff provide excellent service.

Now I have my HP Prime for more than two weeks, and so I'm able to share some insights.

First of all, one must know that a HP Prime is basically two calculators in one housing. One is a classical calculator, residing at the Home screen, and performing calculations with 12 digits BCD, and the other resides at the CAS screen, performing calculations with 48 binary digits precision. Their interaction is very limited.

Now the pros: You get a very advanced, feature-rich tool with outstanding new concepts, like multi-touch screen. Leading-edge technology, five points.

And the cons: A very buggy, premature firmware, with legacy restrictions coming from HP39GII, like sums up to no more than a counter of 1000 elements, frequent freezes, sometimes no other way to power on than by paperclip reset. Bleeding-edge technology, one point.

At the end, I give three points for a something mixed impression. I hope for frequent Firmware updates, thus resulting in more points in the future. Conclusion: If you primarily need a reliable tool, and have no other calculator to fall back on, don't buy the HP Prime now. If you have some fallback possibilities, and if you like the fun of playing with one of the most advanced tools available now, get one ASAP!

Kind regards, Ralf.

SU PORTABILIDAD ES CLAVE, ADIOS AL ORDENADOR PORTÁTIL CON PROGRAMAS DE MATEMÁTICAS, SU POTENCIAL ES INCREÍBLE. LA POTENCIA DE CÁLCULO EN LA PALMA DE TU MANO, LA VERSATILIDAD DE UN INSTRUMENTO DE MEDIDA EN LA PALMA DE TU MANO, LA SIMULACIÓN MATEMÁTICA EN TIEMPO REAL EN UN ABRIR Y CERRAR DE OJOS, ¿QUE MAS NOS OFRECERÁ HP CON ESTA CALCULADORA DE PROCESOS?.

Gros consomateur de calculs, j'avais abandonné HP (67 - 41) pour une Ti 89. Mais je ne m'y suis jamais totalement fait.
Je retrouve avec la HP Prime, ce que j'aimais dans une calculatrice de poche.
Le Firmware a été adapté par HP et les bugs (la majorité ?) semblent corrigés (2013/11/25)
Et un service sur 'thecalculatorstore' impeccable.

One of the calculator which is really good is graphing calculator online. It is used solve simultaneous equations, plot graphs and many other variable calculations and it is available online so you do not have to worry about carrying it acalculator

It s an exellent ( amazing ) calculator, the best on the market for HP
Color, agree in exams, full fonctions, RPN

IThe best since the HP41
