I use a TI-36x pro for classes that don't allow graphical calculators.

Other than that i use Matlab/MathCAD on my computer. Been wanting to get the Nspire though.

Pic related for when youre not allowed to use phone & laptop.

Otherwise I use my fucking laptop which has a better processor than the one they used to send people to moon so it should be able to draw me a graph or two if i want. Hell it can probably even emulate your pathetic calculator in a VM or something.

I mean, not that hard to do

Pretty sure that the Ti-nspire calculators fit that bill

I use a Casio fx-300ES I got about 5 years ago. I have over the years become interested in an exploit in the calculator that can do really weird stuff to it, and may allow arbitrary code execution. So far, the only really useful thing that I've found that's possible is tricking the calculator into thinking it's a fx-991ES. Messing up the ram can be good fun, though. Pic related is an emulator (different calculator, but the same ROM) I have partly through the upgrade exploit. Unfortunately, most of the information is in Chinese, and very few English speaking people have an interest in the exploit or even know about it.

A lot of classes won't let you use an Nspire for actual testing.

Looks like that one but no colour screen

Literally eats batteries for breakfast though
