Comix Desktop Calculator, 12 Digits Large Button Desk Calculator, Gold | Solar Battery Dual Power, 5 Inch Large LCD Display, Computer Keys, 4 Function Basic Calculator Office Business Home Use

When my old corded TI calculator decided after several decades that it wanted to do operations of its own, I began looking around for one with the old school keyboard layout (because I’m old). It has some features my old TI calculator didn’t. For instance, there is a slider that lets you select whether to round up, down or just cut off the extra digit(s). There is also a mark-up/down key. Apparently, these and other features are common on the newer calculators, but they were new to me. The screen is fairly good for a solar powered unit. It would be nice if its angle could be adjusted, but the numbers are large enough that the calculator can be placed so they can be easily read. What I especially like is that the keys have some travel. There is no guessing whether you pushed the key or not. What I don’t like about this unit is that functions solely as a calculator and not as an adding machine with some calculator features. The default data entry position is that all numbers are positive. To enter a negative number, the minus sign must be entered first prior to the number. That’s great, if all you are working with are equations. This entry logic is awful if you are trying to add up a long column of positive and negative numbers. I don’t understand why there can’t be on an otherwise great little machine a slider switch that would enable data entry to use adding machine arithmetic logic. How much can a small switch and some additional programming logic add to the unit’s cost? Looking around for calculators that can be used as adding machines, I found that Sharp has a number of paper tapeless units. The downside is that they cost over twice as much. That said, if you do not routinely add columns of numbers, for under $20 you can’t go wrong.

Really enjoy using this! Very easy, simplistic to use!! I had a Sharp 10 key print out (with tape) that I bought on here on Amazon, that has to many unusable functions, basically I NEVER USE THAT CALCULATOR. Too late to return it I’m sure. Oh well. Love this little Comix! Perfect size for a desktop, countertop. Not big and bulky. Came in great condition!! And the other thing that sold me was ALL of the amazing reviews this little calculator received!!!! That did it for me!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Very easy to use calculator!! Large keys & display. High quality. Love it.

I was looking for a large desk calculator without a printer that I could have on my professional desk, and I was also looking for a little bit of a vintage vibe and something that would work with dark mahogany furniture and polished brass or bronze. This calculator really fit the bill. Great value, and it's huge. Just exactly what I wanted. I'm knocking off one star though because the surface of the calculator is not actually metal or even metalized plastic, but rather appears to be just a sticker and there is a raised bubble on one end. That was a little bit of a bummer. But for the price, it's still a very good value.

A really good calculator for the desk. Easy to use.

I really like this calculator and this model's particular form factor and size. I was a little worried about this purchase since most everything is made cheaper today than 20-30 years ago. I must say this is a good purchase. Very inexpensive, but excellent quality. Most importantly the display and buttons/keys are top notch. I like the angle of the display, really just right. The calculator worked immediately from the solar cell but was dim. I put in the single AA battery and it was super clear and dark. I really like the auto shut off at about 10 minutes. The 'MU' button/feature is excellent to calculate the % increase and decrease of two values, up or down. The back arrow key is nice to correct a wrong key in value too. Good instructions too that explain how to take advantage of the round up and down and # of digits using the sliding switches. Great product! Thanks to Amazon for making it Prime too.

I regretfully urchased a large button calculator from Staples and it was horrible. The machine couldn't keep up with my fingers and the final number would often be wrong. I paid a little more for this one and what a difference. The keys have a nice feel and a positive "clunk" as you hit them. It doesn't care how fast I key in the numbers, it never misses anything. Have one for the office and ordered another for the house. A great value for an excellent price.

Ended up buying a second one for work! Nice big buttons and clear screen. Really is probably the BEST size calculator I've used. Some are just so mall and hard to see and the buttons aren't great.... this one IS exactly what you'd be looking for. Battery life seems to Holds up well.... and well.... it does math! No complaints, good quality!

Fonctionne bien et très pratique avec les grosses touches bien espacées semblables à un PC. L'affichage est facile à consulter, en résumé je suis content de mon achat.

Awesome calculator!good quality and nice appearance,large buttons and comfortable touch feel, perfect for office uses,love it!

Old school calculator. Big buttons, lots of functionality.

Just perfect That’s all I can say
