NumWorks Graphing Calculator

As a long-time user of graphing calculators and teacher of maths at IB Higher level/AP/A-level I can say without doubt that this is the best calculator for any pre-university maths course. I own and use Ti 84s, Ti Nspires, Casio FX-CG50s and have used the HP Prime in emulator form, and finding this calculator has been a breath of fresh air. It is so much easier to pick up and learn to use, more powerful, more flexible, and overall better thought out than the exam board accepted alternatives. It's lightning fast and significantly cheaper than the Ti/Casio/HP alternatives.Best of all you can try before you buy! There is a free emulator app that you can use on your phone, iPad, or computer. I used it for a good year and a half on my phone before I bought the physical calculator as I could no longer justify being a bad example to my students and constantly getting my phone out in class.If you need a graphing calculator for your maths course then get this one. You'll save at least £30 on the competition and find your life easier. If you currently are using an alternative and possibly finding it tricky to learn (looking at you Ti 84, looking at you...) then download the app to your phone or tablet, and try it for free. Be warned, however, if you do then you will want to purchase a physical copy as it is that much better that you'll end up addicted.The only negative that I can think of to offer in the way of balance is that if you are a student then your teacher is less likely to be familiar with it to help you as it is the new kid on the block. To this I always say Google is your friend, and the online tutorials and help pages are easy to find and follow (again, those of you with Ti's will know that this is a refreshing change).

This must be one of the most powerful but thinnest and smallest graphing calculators! Performing better than the Ti-Nspire CX II, GC50 and only slightly below the HP Prime, the super intuitive interface and minimalist design makes it the best option for any exam! (allowed for IB and A Level etc) Not to say the amazing value at £89! Only missing a CAS (which has been removed in recent updates and can only be added by a custom OS), and also I can’t not mention the controversy of Numworks locking down custom OS flashing both on software and hardware with the new versions…

Intuitive Design and Powerful

Good machine, visibility of button labels could be much better, as could the documentation that may be OK in an instructional setting, but which is not up to professional engineering standards. An extra 10% effort by the makers, would deliver 100% gain.

I am a big nostalgic of my TI 92... but at the same time I was not very proud to see that teenagers still use the same repackaged calculator 20 years later!That new calculator is a refreshing change! Thin, light, and with such an easy to use interface. I remember the user guide of my Ti 92, thick as a dictionary. I didn't even bother looking for one, finally a calculator with a user experience of the iPhone era, not from the 80s when the best was the Commodore 64...And this is really a modern device: color screen, rechargeable battery, stunning graph display. And, cherry on the cake, it's an open source device: using the provided USB cable I could very quickly update my device - and they already had built a Python app!Last but not least, it comes with a free simulator on the manufacturer's website which is very cool.So happy to recommend this to all the teenagers and looking forward to a new generation of coders who will have learnt to program on their calculator using Python and ASM or TI-Basic!

Very happy with purchase, does everything I need it to do.

Originally bought a Casio Cg50, but changed it for Numworks. Numworks is easy to use, sleek and constantly updated (numworks listen to feedback). Overall great calculator at a good price 5star product !

Purchased as a gift for my son-teenager, he loves match and physics, and study in the highest rated school, useful calculator.
