Comment: What does another excellent, but smaller Canon calculator -- the Canon
LS-82z -- "want to be when it grows up"? Right! THIS calculator -- the Canon LS 85H calculator!``The smaller calculator -- also reviewed for me by Amazon -- is an excellent little machine. But I can see how its smaller size, (and in particular, smaller keys), would be a problem for those using it on a continual basis. Men especially, as they tend to have larger hands than women....
The slightly larger, Cannon LS 85H calculator, being reviewed here, is almost as perfect a general-purpose calculator as one can find these days! A handy size, which is at home either on desk-top or pocket/purse.
"Man-size" keys, which are still not overwhelmingly large, which a person with the largest hands, and also one with the smallest, can use
with the utmost of ease. The eight-digit display is large, and very well spaced. Nice little "extras", found in most -- but not all -- other general-purpose calculators: a percent key, a square root key, and a sign change key. (The sign-change key does not appear on the smaller, LS-82Z).
True, the larger LS-85H calculator has an enclosed, "wrap-around" display, (enclosing the entire top part, all together), rather than the "picture-frame" display, (in which the numberic display is indented, and "framed" by the rest of the top of the calculator) of the smaller calculator. (And I, personally, find the "picture-frame" display far more attractive). But the larger LS-85H calculator stays on for approximately 3 minutes before turning itself off...approximately a full minute more than the smaller machine, and this may mean more to many users.
About the only things missing from this calculator are an "off" key, (not found on the LS-82z, or on most other calculators, either), a "resume" key, (found, at present, only on the large and somewhat cumbersome Sharp (R) VX=2128R calculator -- but a feature that would be welcome on ANY calculator!), and a "live" battery, (you know -- an
"AA" battery, or even two --which can easily be replaced. Like they used to have when calculators first came out?)
Oh, oh...wait a minute! I see that Canon ALSO has, (or had), another model that looks ALMOST like this one does, but which has, as a model number, LS-85H 4050A001AA! Looking at the description of it....YES! It has a live battery! AA! Sadly, there was only one of these for sale......and, yes....this reviewer has done what the vast majority of people would do under the same circumstances....grab it! Hopefully, Canon will produce more of this "AA" powered portable calculator....as will all other calculator manufacturers! Replacable lithium batteries are just NOT easy to replace! (I see that Canon DOES have a larger, 12-digit "AA" powered calculator, still on sale! -- Canon 7438A003AA). It got one 3 star review....but if I wanted a larger, 12-digit calculator which uses a "AA" battery, I'd try this one for sure.
Anyway, the Canon LS-85H, which is the main calculator being reviewed here, is a good, basic, little machine, with size, keys, and basic features, that feel, and respond, "just right". Great for "Goldilocks", or anyone else you know -- even yourself!
