Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus CE Graphing Calculator
The TI-84 Plus CE is a color-screen graphing calculator designed for high school and college math and science courses and many standardized exams. It combines familiar TI-84 functionality with a thinner, lighter design and a high-resolution backlit color display.
Key features
Display: 320×240-pixel, full-color backlit LCD that improves graph readability and supports color-coded plots.
Memory and storage: 3 MB flash ROM for apps and data, with approximately 154 KB of RAM for active calculations and variables.
Battery: Rechargeable lithium-ion battery with USB charging; typically lasts weeks under normal classroom use.
Processor: Faster processor than earlier TI-84 models for quicker graphing and program execution.
Compatibility: Supports most TI-84 Plus apps, programs, and data; compatible with TI connectivity software for file transfer and classroom management.
Built-in functions: Preloaded apps and features for algebra, calculus, statistics, probability, finance, matrices, complex numbers, and trigonometry.
Graphing capabilities: Multiple simultaneous graphs, parametric/polar/sequence modes, inequality shading, piecewise functions, and zoom/tracing tools.
Programming: TI-Basic programming language support; can run user-created scripts and commonly used classroom programs.
Connectivity: USB port for data transfer and charging; supports over-the-air class features when paired with TI classroom technology.
Exam use: Approved for many standardized tests, including the SAT and ACT (confirm current exam policies before test day).
Physical/design
Slim, lightweight body with a durable plastic case; key layout and functions closely match the TI-84 Plus family for ease of transition.
Color-coded keypad and menu system to help navigate features quickly.
Available in multiple colors depending on retailer.
Who it’s for
High school and college students in algebra, geometry, precalculus, calculus, statistics, physics, and engineering intro courses.
Teachers and educators who need a classroom-standard graphing calculator with broad compatibility and exam approval.
Notes
Verify the specific exam or course policy for permitted calculator models, as rules can change.
For extended storage, apps, or classroom management features, check the available firmware and connectivity options.
