Texas Instruments TI-1795 SV Standard Function Scientific Calculator

M. Gaston "watch guy": I have had many small calculators in my lifetime. I had the TI2500 years ago--one of the first small digital one with soldered in rechargeable batteries. It was an LED--a style in calculators and watches from the period which didn't last very long. Since those early days these small calculators have certainly evolved in function and charging ability. This one is shaped a bit different from many current ones. It is not a rectangle but you can either use it as a desk model or hold it in your hand and use it that way--if you hands are big enough. Functions are on the simple side for the most part--they are handled quickly and efficiently . I have taken a liking to this small unit. I usually use it as a desk model or while sitting in my lounge chair doing simple calculations--like for doing your taxes or figuring out the taxes on purchases. You can input the local tax rate into memory and use it to calculate things you want to buy--a lot easier than putting in the % rate each time you do a calculation--pretty common on most calculators today.
I also like the fact that it is "dual power" and the battery is relatively easy to change--a small cover on the back of the calculator is...

M: Nice size and big screen. Just have an issue of the button placements. I wish the mrc,m-and the m+ were either up on top or off to the left. they are close to the buttons you use the most and frustrating when you hit them and then have to work to clear them.

Valerie: I know that most people probably use the calculator on their phone but I prefer not to. I had one just like this for several years when it suddenly stopped working. I was so disappointed because i always loved it. I couldn’t believe that I found the exact same model on Amazon. I love it because the numbers are large, the screen is large, and it is so simple to use. So happy I found this! Great calculator. I hate the smaller ones so this is perfect!

Linda: This is a nice size of calculator to use, not so small that you have to hold it & aim carefully to hit the right buttons. These buttons are more similiar to those of an adding machine, so for those of us accustomed to that type of equipment, this is a nice size portable calculator. Buttons have a little 'click' when you hit them, so you know you made contact, unlike some of the smaller hand-held calculators that you can't tell just from feel if the number you hit registered or not & you have to look constantly.

gingergirl: I had one of these calculators for years, it's a great basic calculator. I recently dropped and broke it so it was nice to find it here so I could replace it.

Patricia: This review is for the SECOND version of this calculator, the slightly-larger, grey, BLACK and white model, with a rounded "mound" housing the keypad. I had actually ordered the older model -- the light-grey model, with the blue and white keys, slightly smaller, which I had had previously, but sadly lost. I had considered returning this newer model, but finally decided against it, as it is now listed as being discontinued by the manufacturer, so -- if I returned the newer one I did get, I very well might have gotten the same model back..........

I was, at first, extremely disappointed in the newer model. (Why both the newer model and the older model -- which look COMPLETELY DIFFERENT -- have the VERY SAME MODEL NUMBER is completely beyond me. I mean, people who work at Texas Instruments are supposed to be very intelligent and know what they are doing....but why they decided to give to truly different calculators the same model number is something I don't think I'll ever understand. I mean...what kind of "genuis" makes this very simple mistake? (one who wants to fool online and catalogue buyers, who have to trust that the packers will pack the right model,...
