The TI-84 Plus CE will never hold you back from accomplishing any mathematical task you'll encounter throughout high school and most college courses. The ability to create programs and use numerous built-in applications allow for more advanced operations too. Besides the new features, its MathPrint™ functionality, simple user interface, and hundreds of powerful built-in functions are nearly everything a student would desire.

Additionally, though not very important, it is available in a multitude of fun colors. The 320x240-pixel color screen along with a rechargeable battery and slim exterior is a large step towards modernizing calculators. Though TI's monopoly discourages innovation, as demonstrated in the picture, the Ti-84 Plus CE is actually a nice upgrade from its predecessors. Once adopted by the majority of schools, it became the standard, and its popularity has remained mostly constant and unquestioned. Its popularity be attributed to both Texas Instruments' marketing and its comparatively low price (though still overpriced-that's capitalism folks!). The TI-84 Plus series has dominated high school classrooms for over decade.
