Customer Reviews

Same as TI84+silver, just adds a port.
I called Texas Instruments asking what is the difference between this and the standard TI-84+Silver edition model. Basically, this is the teacher version with an extra port to attach a screen so that students can see what you are doing. Functionally there is no difference. TI basically said that if this version is cheaper (which it is by $20 when I wrote this) there is no real reason NOT to get this one rather than the "standard" version. When I received this item, it INCLUDED the additional display screen and a carry bag along with the calculator. Pretty good deal!

Since Its A Mandatory Product, Its all I Can Do
I bought the Viewscreen edition solely because amazon was having a sale on it so it was cheaper than the regular 84+ silver.
I don't have any problems with it, even after writing some rather complex programs.

However, I do not like the product itself.
I find the interface unintuitive, and so many of the most-used functions are buried in menus.
The LCD is also terrible quality. It takes forever to refresh so there is a noticeable delay between changes. That intermediate time results in a grayish screen that can really bug you. Also, the software included is not compatible with my Intel Imac. Luckily, I use parallels and a virtual machine and the windows version did the trick.

Hope this is helpful.
