HP Financial Calculator 17BII+ (Black ) Customer Reviews5 out of 5 stars 2010-04-26By Dianne (Chicago) I had the HP 17B II for many years and it finally died. It wasn't available anymore so I figured I should buy the "+" since I was hoping it would be essentially the same calculator. I wasn't looking to reinvent the wheel, I just wanted a good calculator that I could use when I wasn't using Excel on the computer. It has been the perfect acquisition. The real test will be how long will the batteries last as well as the calculator, but for the month I've owned it, it is working quite satisfactorily. 5 out of 5 stars 2009-07-11 By This new HP 17bII+ in silver cover is more than beatiful, HP fixed the problem in the types. Now there are more smooth and clear. This calc, in my opinion is better than 12C (any version). 5 out of 5 stars 2009-07-07 By Su Doku (WDC, USA) I really like this calculator. It's the same size as the HP10bII, but slightly rounded to fit more comfortably in your hand. The keys/buttons are much larger. It has a nicely lined case that closes with a magnetic snap. The manual is well-written with a good amount of illustrations, examples and details. My only criticism is that the set-up instructions written on the first two pages do not include "setting the clock" (page 142). I have used HP calculators forever. I own the HP11c, HP12c (original and upgrade), HP10bII and now this one. There are a lot of arguments or comparisons. Here's my summation: I have never bought anything that I didn't think was worth what I paid for it, or more. Quality, value, capability and capacity are my most important criteria. The buttons on this calculator feel solid and fine - providing enough tactile response, where I can input numbers (and know that they are correct) without looking at the screen. That's good enough for me. Now some specs... It uses two CR2032 batteries (which were dead in my retail purchase) that require a pen to remove. It has 250+ functions, a clock with date/time with alarms. It offers switchable input between algebraic or RPN. The size is 3x5.5 inches (+/-) 2mm. Orange, red, or blue secondary functions have been replaced by a row of 6 multi-function keys with various menus. There are a few yellow-marked secondary keys (5 arithmetic, 3 memory, 3 data, 4 menu and "OFF") for quick access and one dedicated input/clr data key. But compared to all the other HPs, this keyboard is very clean and easy to read. The left and right sides are slightly rubberized for a solid grip and the bottom has non-slipping feet. While it takes time to work with a calculator, I think all my other HPs will soon be sold or given away as gifts. And, my original HP12c is now a keepsake. 5 out of 5 stars 2009-05-28 By Amazon User No problems, and was just right for what I needed for my graduate school work. 2 out of 5 stars 2008-06-05 By El Steve (Long Beach, CA 90814) The touch sensitivity on this calculator is so bad, I can't type in numbers for fear of them not getting registered. It is frustrating when you're in meetings, trying to calculate something, only to have trouble inputing into the device. I used to have the HP 17BII, and that one was heaven. Solid as a rock, but it seems that when they made this new model and added a "+" sign to the title, they had it manufactured using cheap parts and shoddy craftmanship. Don't buy this. Awful.
