 Great Calculator, If You Can Learn To Use It! August 31, 2010
Richard Pabst (Framingham, MA)
For background, I've used HP45, HP41, HP28 and others, and more recently the TI-83/84.
The HP50G is a great calculator, with more functionality than I am ever likely to use. And RPN is back, together with algebraic and equation editor/solver functions! But, as other reviewers have noted, the manuals are far, far poorer than HP supplied of old. I've ordered printed copies of the User's Guide and Advanced User's Guide, plus some supplementary material that should help.
I can see why schools use the TI-83/84; not nearly as powerful, but well-documented, easy for high-school students to learn, and a lot of online support.
Adding insult to injury- the package contained only the "Quick Start Guide", a little over 40 pages; have ordered a used copy (less than $10) of the User's Manual which should have been in the package. I don't want to spend the effort to convince HP to send me a new one ....
 HP50g totally amazing.. August 4, 2010
FedeSismo
This is a superb tool if you are studying engineer. It has thousands of math functions. Operating with complex numbers, plotting functions, calculating laplace transform are some of the things I learned to use in this last months, staff thats very useful for a electric engineer student. Im just getting starting with it and it seems like its capabilities are endless.
Its important to know that its not so easy to use,specially at the beginning.. In the first week I used to get very frustrated with it but as time passed by and putting some effort into it I ended up enjoying it.
I totally recommend it..
Better than the TI-83...much better than the NSpire July 9, 2010

Bought the NSpire a few weeks ago and was amazed at the poor quality of the display. Could barely read it and there was no way of making meaningful adjustments. Buy the HP if you want a better product...much better screen and has many of the features of the HP41 from 30 years ago...
Great Calculator, Horrible Documentation June 27, 2010
DCB (Fairhope, AL USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pros: RPN, nice keyboard, powerful
Cons: Terrible manual, flaky connectivity software
Bottom line: Best calculator out there for engineers (but be warned it is NOT allowed for either the FE or PE exams). More support from HP would be welcomed, as the documentation needs a complete re-write, and the pc link software needs updating. More apps would also be nice, but creating your own is not too difficult once you get the information required to create them.
Good but difficult to use. June 20, 2010
Bernardo S. Moreira (São Paulo, SP BR)
Definetly the best calculator i've ever had. Very complete.
But it's still very hard to use. I hope I get better on this.
