Texas Instruments TI-83 Plus Silver Edition Graphing Calculator

Texas Instruments Updated: 2008-11-17 RSS

The TI-83 Plus Silver Edition has been discontinued. The TI-84 Plus Silver Edition is a great choice for many high school math and science classes.
This easy-to-use TI calculator, compatible keystroke-for-keystroke with the TI-83 Plus, is enhanced with more than 1.5 MB of FLASH ROM memory. Its upgradeable operating system includes several built-in Calculator Software Applications (Apps) and can store up to 94 Apps. Use the TI Connectivity Cable that is included to connect your computer to download Apps, games, data and more!

The TI-83 Plus family is 100% keystroke-for-keystroke compatible with the TI-84 Plus family. Consider the TI-84 Plus or the TI-84 Plus Silver Edition with an additional 3x to 9x more memory a USB connectivity cable and additional applications. Review the comparison chart to see why the TI-84 family may be right for you.

Count on TI calculators at exam time. You can use this TI graphing calculator on the PSAT, SAT, and ACT college entrance exams and AP tests.
