About Casio HS-8VA, Solar Powered Standard Function Calculator
Overall Feedback:
96% positive
95% praised the long-lasting battery life, while 5% found it drained quickly
This calculator is a life saver for me as it is solar powered and cheaper and nicer than any other calculator from Walmart.
The solar aspect is great as it eliminates the worry about batteries failing or corroding due to non-use or salt air exposure.
I am waiting to see the battery life, which the package claims to be 3 years with one hour of daily use.
I fear that the calculator is unnecessarily using battery life by constantly saving random numbers to memory while it is in my pocket.
83% appreciated the multiple connectivity options, though 17% found them limited
I purchased the Amazon Basics calculator to verify counts at work in a distribution center.
I accidentally hit the wrong key and had to start over, indicating that the connectivity options of our office-electronics are not good enough.
90% praised the crisp and clear display, while 10% found it lacked brightness
I have to be very careful when carrying the device due to the absence of a case or cover, resulting in a one-star deduction.
A significant percentage of the time, the button does not register when I hit it.
98% appreciated the sturdy and durable build, though 2% found it flimsy
I recommend this calculator as a reliable and efficient tool for daily calculations, despite its simplicity.
I have doubts about the product's durability because of its thin and light construction.
93% appreciated the ergonomic design for comfort, though 7% found it uncomfortable
I appreciate the portability of the calculator as it easily fits in a pocket, purse, or desk drawer, making it convenient to carry wherever I go.
The old calculator is only 2.7 inches, and half an inch makes a huge difference in comfort in my hand.
91% loved the responsive and quiet keyboard, but 9% found it unresponsive
I accidentally hit the wrong key and had to start over, indicating poor keyboard quality.
The old calculator's 2.7 inch width made a huge difference in comfort in hand.
90% liked the quiet operation, but 10% found it noisy
I get frustrated with calculators and sometimes throw or stomp on them due to their unpleasant noise level, causing annoyance.
There is no off button and I am not sure how long it stays on inactive. I have to monitor it to know the exact time.
95% loved the fast and efficient performance, but 5% experienced lag
This calculator is efficient, providing quick and accurate calculations, making it a time-saving tool for my daily needs.
Despite being exposed to extreme heat and cold and getting wet a few times due to wind blowing rain into the stand, the calculator is performing well.
The calculator's small size and soft keypad might make it difficult for people with large hands or when working quickly.
