no geral é muito boa, mas é bem pequena, pensei que era um pouco maior. mas mesmo assim, cumpre a função e o preço vale a pena pela boa marca

I’m not sure why there are so many negative reviews regarding the size and display size.
As you can see in the photo, the display is larger than a typical calculator. However, the numbers are narrower. As a negative review mentioned, there are no comma’s in the display, but there is a decimal point.
I purchased the Amazon Basics calculator on the left to use at work in a distribution center to verify counts. While it worked perfectly in most instances; Sometimes I needed something smaller when I was operating certain types of equipment. That is why I ordered this Casio. It was small, inexpensive and I wouldn’t cry if anything happened to it at the DC.
It is small. It is light.
If you have large fingers, you may have problems with the buttons.
Because of it’s light weight, you may forget you have it in a pocket. Or forget it and lose it.
So far it’s worked perfectly for how I use it. While I need + 1 reading glasses often at work for my equipment mounted computer and RF Gun, I do not need them to read the screen on this calculator with the lighting in the warehouse.
If I were to lose this calculator, I would probably spend $2 more for the slightly larger Casio to try it out, because is seems to have a little more substance to it.
Overall, I’m happy with this calculator. It fits pretty much anywhere and is doing exactly what I bought it for perfectly.
You will have to be careful with it though. Because it’s so thin and light, I doubt that it is very durable.
There are reviews about this item not being returnable. In my case, the calculator works fine and a return wasn’t necessary.
Due to the cost of the calculator and shipping, I understand why it wouldn’t be returnable due to “buyers remorse”. However, if it arrived, wasn’t working and can’t be returned, that is another issue.

This practical pocket calculator is basic and easy to use when you don’t need an overload of functions designed for mathematicians. Its simple design is nicely laid out.

J’ai cette calculatrice depuis plus de vingt ans et je m’en sers encore régulièrement et elle fonctionne toujours à merveille. Quand mon fils a eu besoin d’une calculatrice pour le primaire j’ai tout de suite cherché ce modèle. Très heureuse qu’elles existent encore!

This little calculator has a very rare feature. After it has turned itself off, IT RETAINS THE CONTENTS OF ITS MEMORY, which can then be accessed simply by pressing the Memory Recall button. Useful feature.

Feels smaller than I thought it would be, but works well enough. My preschooler uses this as his go to “cell phone” and that is now its main function in the house.

This is a cheap calculator that “feels” cheap when you use it. It works, and it’s small if portability is important to you, but you may be better off just using the calculator app on your phone.

The calculator arrived on time and in good condition. Very small and lightweight so will fit in a pocket easily and should be very handy. Bought as one of the gifts for a Samaritan Purse Operation Christmas Child older boy box. Hope it’s useful. 🙂

This run on solar power so you won’t need a battery to use it. Use it under the sun or even in your office or room light. The size is small so you can carry it around in your pocket. The display is readable. It is easy to use just like any calculator. The color is pretty standard to a calculator, nothing really makes it stand out aside for its quality and solar capability. You will find answers to your math questions immediately after you put in your data.

I’m often in the middle of something on my phone and need a calculator; this small, user-friendly one saves me having to juggle phone apps. It is my second one; the first one lasted about five years, with frequent use. I was so glad to find the same one available as this model has been exactly what I needed.
