How is this different from the TI-84 Plus and is it worth getting this or a regular 84-Plus?

I don't know much about the other one. But this one is so great with the different colors while graphing

There are actually three versions: TI-84 Plus, TI-84 Plus Silver Edition, and TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition. The Plus C SE is the one on this page. TI-84 Plus SE is better than the original (and antiquated) TI-84 Plus in that it has more onboard memory. Additionally, I believe it has Math Print (newer formatting) as well as customizable plates. The TI-84 Plus C SE adds a higher-resolution color display to the TI-84 Plus SE. This allows more information and detail to be shown on the screen. Plus, graphs have different colors as opposed to black and green on the others. It's also rechargeable, so no more replacing the AA batteries.If you can get a good deal, go for the Plus C...I have it and it's an EXCELLENT calculator. Otherwise, the TI-84 Plus SE is just as good. I wouldn't recommend the original TI-84 Plus, though.

Actually I have seen a video in you tube combating between Casio calculators and this one. They are all deal with graphing, however Hp prime is faster than the others and easy to use. Watch this video http://youtu.be/2yfYeCGWZrs and the other video to decide which suitable for you.

Although the capabilities are virtually the same as the TI83's, I think the the interface is much better in Casio, specially when you are working with graphs

The BA plus (not the pro) is likely what your prof is looking for. Check your syllabus and with prof. The Plus PRO does a few more things than the Plus, so I would check but you are possibly safe with the cheaper Plus. Never hurts to make sure.

Get the plus. You can decide later on to purchase a second one to link with it. Totally worth it. I have a classic as well and the plus is newer model and sounds better. Its a little bigger and louder, and longer battery life.

I believe it was regular but I hadn't purchased a calculator for years and didn't use it a lot. I have already had to change it out

If you awill just use this for algebra then you might as well not get it...i have this calculator and it was very uselful for Calculus and trig but just for Algebra it might be unnecessary my Algebra teacher in college doesnt even let us use a graphing calculator so i would say you dont really need it and beside this way you could save some money

Haven't used the HP. The Nspire cx CAS is very nice. I have no complaints. The user interface is simple enough to use for quick computation and capable enough to do a lot more. I have the TI Software but haven't tried to write my own programs yet, but this software will make it quite nice should I need to. I'm guessing you'll be working with complex numbers, matrices, linear algebra stuff and the Nspire is a champ for all of those and more. By the way, make sure you get the CAS version.

It depends how much you use your calculator. As far as I know it's still working well and we ordered it a while ago.

Easily. Most people don't use these calculators to their full capacity. The other model is nicer to look at and probably a tad easier to use. Both should have the same capabilities.

I believe it is a separate purchase. I was pretty satisfied with it, although I personally think I could have designed it better. I propped it up additionally to optimum configuration, but overall it worked well. I had my calculus book (hardback) on the left; I'd work problems on paper on the right; Upper left was the full-size paperback solutions manual; Upper shelf right I had the TI-84 plus manual and/or the calculator itself. Talk about a workstation.

The BA Plus/Pro is much faster, more accurate, and cheaper than the HP 12C. It is also much more user-friendly as HP 12 C uses reverse polish notation and the BA Plus Pro uses algebraic notation. You simply cannot go wrong with the BA Plus Pro. If you don't need a calculator as advanced and you just need basic finance such as TVM, etc, the BA Plus is a better choice.

Unknown the TI-NspireCX Cas was requested by my child's school that is the only reason I upgraded from the TI-84.

Yes it is a very good calculator...I use this calculator for college all the time..I love it...but it is not in common use teachers and most don't know how use it...they only know the a Texas brands most likely...you might have to learn how to use it on your own...but it is not that hard to grasp ...just watch simple YouTube videos about it...this calculator is simply amazing

From what I gather the Ti-S6 is slightly bigger, heavier and thus more powerful than the Ti-S5. As a result, the Ti-S6 is probably more suited for beginners or those players that need more help generating pace. The Ti-S5 is by no means a players racket, but it has a smaller sweet spot and requires you to generate more pace through your swing. If you can hit the bill with a little pace and want more control, I'd go with the Ti-S5. If you struggle to hit the ball hard and need the bigger head to make good contact, go with the Ti-S6.

Thanks for your comment. I was going to purchase this, however seeing as how all of the information entered was the same sans age and you got two very different answers, this calculator seems faulty.
