James: Starting with the not go great:
1) If my fingers press the number buttons slightly off center, often the calculator won't register that I have pressed the buttons. This happens often enough as I quickly punch the numbers that it's a noticeable annoyance, having to watch the screen to confirm that it has registered my entry, slowing me down.
2) The "Ans" button requires pressing the "shift" key first, if it's not the first entry in the next formula or calculations. This extra step consumes time and is inconvenient.
3) A bit bulky if you keep the lid on or attach the lid to the backside. Wish they had minimized the gap between the lid cover and the keypad.

The good parts:
1) Calculator performance is great. There are videos on the web that compare this calculator with a similar model from TI, and this calculator is superior in complex matrix calculations and graphing. You may not use these often, but given that they cost about the same, it's good to buy the better one.
2) Stylish design, with the muted texture giving this calculator a classy feel.
3) Great lighted screen, making it very easy to see in just about all indoor lighting conditions.

Brie: So, if you never delve into programming much, chances are you won't have too much issue with Casio Prizm FX-CG50. It's a really good calculator, especially if you are not a high-tech person who will easily miss programming features or lack of memory. If you are the average person, it won't stand out to you that the memory is lacking below even the TI-84 and will in fact run out of things get too big for it.

However, unlike the TI-84, it does not obsessively use decimals when it could be giving you the exact value that this calculator will give you. This is enough for many people to ditch the TI-84 decimal-obsessed calculator that has barely evolved for a decade. The TI-84 is very old, outdated, and causes work that is completely unnecessary in modern studies. Scientific calculators are not CAS and yet give exact values for radians and roots, so really there is no excuse for it in the aged TI-84 calculator. This calculator, however, does have both scientific and graphing abilities that give exact value where it can. So as far as graphing calculator feature, I give it a 4 out of 5. TI-84 is a 3 out of 5.

The Casio Prizm FC-CG50 has a more sturdy body than the TI line...
