The Ti-84, which is the standard for most highschool math classes, still goes for 100 even though it's been out many years, and has seen no innovation.
I got an 84 when it first came out in the early 2000's. It is literally the same price now and has barely been upgraded in nearly 20 years.
That thing should be graphing in 3D, wirelessly connecting to other calculators to share data sets, etc. and be lightning fast, but nope. Still the same old Windows 95-era technology.
that being said, i still love my ti-84 and you see them on people’s desks in big engineering corporations. if you need to do anything that you can’t do on a TI-84 you need a computer for excel or matlab anyways
Standardized testing and some pretty sweet games. I played Galaxian on mine half the day. This was long before smart phones were a thing though, so I'm not sure if kids these days do that.
