I'm happy one can buy a mighty 4-stack RPN calculator today new. Greedily, I wish they had recreated the 32S instead, as it had a single Gold function key and far less busy silk screening. I say this as a former owner of a 32SII.

- nvy 3y agoPersonally I'm hoping for an HP48G or HP50G clone. I still use my 50g and it's great.
- fmajid 3y agoThere's the HP Prime
- trasz4 3y agoPrime is a completely different product, because it's aimed at a completely different target group: students, not engineers.
- ezst 3y agoPerhaps, but it doesn't mean that it's not the greatest for engineers, of does it? I've used a little bit of both and I don't see myself using anything but a prime nowadays. The new licensee (after HP completely dropped the calculators business 3 years ago or so) just put out a new os version, and there are hopes that another one soon brings up the CAS to a recent version of giac/xcas, which is completely unmatched in this field/market.
- fmajid 3y agoTo be frank, I had the HP-48SX, donated it and have gone back to my trust HP-15C (or reissues). For anything more sophisticated, I use a CAS on a computer, like SymPy/Mathics or inside Jupyter.
- russh 3y agoHP48GX with a sizeable readable font.
- Aardwolf 3y agoI'm the opposite on this, I like more labeled functions directly reachable with function buttons and less menu scrolling :) SwissMicros should really do the WP-34s imho: https://commerce.hpcalc.org/images/34s-angle-medium.jpg https://commerce.hpcalc.org/images/34s-angle-medium.jpg
