Particularly for brushing up on math. Plenty of free apps online. Graphing is beautiful. Super fast! Highly recommended. If you’re tired of using calculator apps. Want the tactile feel of real keys, this is the one. The multitouch screen is a real plus. And for you RPN fans, this does allow you to set it for RPN entry. Just not in CAS mode. Battery charge lasts long. Lots of memory for apps. The screen is bright and text is very readable. Absolutely no issues or complaints from me. I use it in my electronics work. Buy it!

It is very difficult to learn its workings. Pedagogical material to help in this regard is sparse and hard to come by. There was no documentation that came with the product. The user guide (on HP's site) is more than 600 pages long. I would have to follow a course to show how to do things. It looks pretty powerful in what it can accomplish. I didn't suspect such a rough learning curve. Nice to have, tough to digest.

I'm a practicing engineer and use the HP Prime in my work. The calculator treats complex math as a complex data type which makes calculations easy. In addition HP has a virtual HP Prime calculator which runs on a Windows computer. Programs developed on the virtual calculator can be readily transferred to the physical calculator or shared with coworkers.

Although RPN (Reverse Polish Notation) is still available as an entry mode on this calculator, it is no longer the native entry mode. The user will have to get used to using Algebraic and "Textbook" entry modes to get full benefits from this device. This is especially true using the CAS (Computer Algebra System) features of this unit which does not provide for RPN entry.

The HP Prime (G2) calculator is the most powerful calculator I have ever used. It is fast, and has a color touchscreen display, which no other calculator has, which makes it easier to use. Besides the CAS mode, it also supports RPN, which in my opinion makes it an Engineering necessity.
