So HP calculators have been … well not frequent. And from the perspective of a casual calculator user HP might as well not exist. If you wanna buy a new useful scientific calculator it’s TI or Casio and maybe sharp. However with the recent announcement that there would be a collectors edition re-release of the HP 15c it looks like the new owners of the HP calculator brand do care! Well at least a bit. So what do you think they will do next? Do you believe HP still has a great calculator in them? What would be your dream HP calculator?

    Well i personally was more thinking non-graphing calculators. I personally feel once i want graphs and complex programs I’m better off using a laptop. I feel like when comparing the HP prime smartphone app and the real HP prime, then there is something to having physical buttons that does help.

      I’m not really a numbers guy, but tactile buttons for alphabets in an interface is also super cool. Aka mechanical keyboards or whatever.

        I miss the slide-out keyboard on my last non-smart phone (probably back in 2009 or so).
