So, let me regale you with the tale of the Helect Standard Function Desktop Calculator—a seemingly innocent device that turned my life into a chaotic comedy of mathematical errors, embarrassing situations, and a surprising surge in my popularity.It all started innocently enough. Picture this: a romantic dinner with a date. Being the smooth operator that I am, I decided to show off my mathematical prowess. Little did I know, my attempts at calculating the tip on the bill would lead to a mathematical miscalculation of epic proportions.

These seemingly innocent buttons are like mischievous little gremlins.

Clear, easy to use, great occasional calculator (I had some old fashioned ledgers to cast, all on XL now!)

I had been relying on a solar powered Casio desk calculator for a few years, but it was limited to 8 digits and was stopping me doing some of the calculations I needed. This looked like a similar thing but with more digits.First thing to note - it's a lot bigger than you imaging: 12 cm across by 15 long.Also there's no instruction manual. Well, there's an instruction manual in many languages which has a picture of all the buttons saying things like "GT - General Total", but doesn't explain how any of them works.Also, it has a solar panel but really it's reliant on an AA battery to work. Without it, it only works in bright light. On this January day it won't even turn on without a battery.Other than that it's fine. Nice solid clicky buttons, readable display, and of course cheap.

great screen, so much easier to use than my last desk calculator

Ideal for basic arithmetic.

Works well. Just what I needed a good size basic calculator.

Lost my calculator after having it for 38 years God knows where it went. So I searched and decided on this as I liked the display and the fact that there were different colours so it would be easy to know which button was pressing. Really good I like it a lot and would definitely recommend. Do note that solar power is backup and you do need to use one battery

Not as good as I expected it to be. Though it is a nice size and buttons are nice and big but I was expecting better quality.
