By Kyle Debruyn on April 28, 2010
This calculator got me through two years of advanced high school math, two and a half years of college calculus, and general use almost every day at work as an engineer/scientist. It is my calculator of choice for EVERYTHING from simple arithmetic to graphing complex equations, to solving integrals and differential equations. The battery life has been phenomenal -- I maybe change them out once a year, if that. I have used it almost every day for 15 straight years. Contains some very powerful features and functions for almost any math need you can throw at it. You can purchase a used TI-85 for not much money these days as well. True, it may not be as easy to use as the TI-83, but I would never give up my TI-85 for anything.

With a large number of features and a huge range of functions, the TI-85 is a graphing tool that is well worth its cost. It is fully programmable, using a BASIC-like programming language. Texas Instruments discontinued this line of calculators however, and though they may have had their own reasons, I know of at least two flaws with this particular calculator. The first is that there are some bugs in its programming, such as its inability to convert negative temperatures. The second and much more serious problem is that the screen is not reliable. Roughly half of these calculators have one or more lines or columns of pixels fail after a few years of use. As long as you aren't paying retail price, however, the $$$it might cost for a used TI-85 is more than worth it. Enjoy.

I used this calculator throughout all of my high school and college math classes. I got years of use and never any problems!

I used a scientic calulator for years. I bought the TI-85 my Senior year of High School and even though I'm not yet in college (five years later) I'm still a nerd that likes to play on it. most of time I just use it for basic stuff I can still do with a new TI-30X I bought granted I can graph with it and I've been looking hard at TI-89 for no other reason than I can. (more than likely would be my next purchase if I did buy another one) the sad thing is resources for this calulator are limited seeing as it's been discontinued but you know it's still more powerful with it's computing power over my GF TI-83 plus. it just lacks the storage of memory.

I've been using this calculator since 1993 with no problems whatsoever. It got me through an engineering degree back then and another more recently (just finished). During this second degree, I purchased a TI-89 and did not like it at all. While it does a lot of things that the 85 doesn't, I found it less intuitive to use for what I need. It does so much that it can be difficult to find the things you need to do.

The 85 handles complex numbers and simultaneous equations with ease, as well as definite integrals. For indefinite integrals and symbolic math, you may need a newer model.

Its an excellent investment for engineers. The Calci helps a lot in mathematical calculations. It has a Huge number of engineering applications. Few applications which I found VERY Useful are
(1) Inverse of a Matrix (2) Solving Quadratic and higher order Equations. (3) Plotting the graph of Algebric Equations which help in finding out the Maxima and Minina..

A Graduate Student

I received this product and when I turned it on you could barely see anything on the screen. There was no way that I would have been able to use it for my class. I would but a product like this in a store instead.

My TI-83 was stolen in my physics class one day (still pissed about that), so I bought this cause it was half the price and I was not gonna pay over $100 for another calculator. It worked great! It wasn't new, but that was okay. A few scratches here and there, but overall it did the job and I passed physics.
