On the other hand, you will find everything that you’ll really need . You’ll find simple easy to use apps for things like lists, graphing, tables, conic sections, and a handful more. Graphing The other useful apps include: lists, matrices, dynamic functions, an app for graphing conics, recursion, financial functions, and an app for simultaneous equations and polynomials. Because of its low price, the screen on the Casio fx-9750GII isn’t anything special. You’ll get an average resolution (for a graphing calculator), non-lit, LCD screen. It’s much like the screen on the original TI-84 Plus. In the normal calculation screen you can fit 21 characters across, and 7 rows down. Incredibly easy to use: just think about where you'd expect the facility to be and how you'd expect to use it, and there it is! It is a very durable calculator though. It comes with a slide on case that covers all the buttons and the entire screen. This calculator would easily survive a drop off a desk. Conclusion

Taking everything into account: ease of use, features, build quality, display clarity, suitability for school/college use, nothing else comes near. Most owners don't even scratch the surface. The Casio fx-9750GII is a little bulky. It Doesn’t have a ton of fancy features and apps. It doesn’t have a computer algebra system like some of the most expensive graphing calculators (like the TI-Nspire CX CAS, or the HP Prime). But for the price it can’t be beat. You won’t have any trouble getting through any high school math class using just this calculator. Features and Capabilities The Casio fx-9750GII has virtually no competition in its price range. For an extremely low price you’ll get a calculator with almost as many features as the ever popular TI-84 Plus. Even though this calculator has a very low price, you shouldn’t overlook it as incapable. I was very surprised by the low price, and I wouldn’t have batted an eye if this calculator was on sale for a price closer to 2x as high as it is. The following list includes the features that the Casio fx-9860GII has and the Casio fx-9750GII does not. Anything not on this list is the same for both calculators. Once you figure it out the first time, graphing is a breeze. You just have to enter the graphing app and then you will be able to enter functions in a list and then press [F6] for draw and your lines will be graphed. From the graphing screen, you will be able to calculate things like intersects, maximums and minimums, and more.

Both of these calculators have low prices when compared with the rest of the market but there is still a significant price difference.

Programming is dead easy (the language is similar to BASIC) and with every text character and mathematical symbol available, together with the full range of programming commands you'd expect, you can write your own software to cover almost anything not built in - incredible! The only other difference between the software is that the Casio fx-9860GII has 3 additional apps that do not come on the Casio fx-9750GII. The first of these and probably the least used is the "E-ACT" (short for eActivity). This is used to create more complex programs mostly designed for teaching students a math concept.

From any screen, you can press the [MENU] button and be taken the main menu where you can run any of the 14 main apps on the calculator. The calculator doesn’t have anything super special or out of the ordinary when it comes to apps. For example, there isn’t anything like an app for unit conversions, or a computer algebra system.

The most obvious difference between these two calculators is their screens. The Casio fx-9860GII has a 2.97 inch screen (diagonal) and the Casio fx-9750GII has a 2.56 inch screen. This may seem like a small difference, you can see the difference in the image below. The system is definitely still usable, I’m just a little disappointed that Casio didn’t think this aspect through a little better. I’d rather see a way to enter a menu that took up the whole screen without abbreviations. Finally, there's the Geometry app which allows you to draft shapes and/or lines and do other things like attach measurements of angles or line segments. This would really only be useful for a geometry student who wanted to experiment with different 2D shapes. Intersection points, maxima, minima, gradients and areas under curves are found in seconds. Curves may be expressed parametrically or in polar form, when needed. Virtually every advanced statistical function is built-in, including Chi-Squared GOF, t- tests (both 1- and 2-sample), ANOVA and all the basic functions as well.

You make your selections using one of the 6 corresponding “F” keys. Doing all of this menu navigation on such a small percentage of the screen is tedious. You can only see 6 command options at a time (5 if the option to scroll is taking up one of those slots). And each selection can only be 3-4 characters wide so there are lots of abbreviations that are hard to understand.
