Awesome power, the ultimate in HP calcs

As of 10-03-2017:

Enough cannot be said about this unit. It is the pinnacle of calculator greatness. The physical design is superb, and the function set is complete. Given the immense power of this unit it is still quite easy to use. The HP 50G may be more capable, but I find the HP 48GX more useful, and it still has all of the power I shall ever need. Guys, there is a reason that this calculator, along with the previous HP 41 series greats, was considered mission critical for NASA missions. This also speaks volumes regarding the reliability of this unit.

The HP 48GX is an achievement of Human Engineering, and it has inspired other feats of Engineering as it has served as a powerful problem solving tool time and time again.

**********************************************************************************************************
I have used a numbe of HP calculators, which I shall list in chronological order from earliest experience to the most recent:

HP 41CV (an established legend)
HP 42S (perhaps the most revered non-graphic hp calculator)
HP 32SII (a solid work horse, very usable)
HP 48G (immensely powerful)
HP 48SX (another classic)
HP 48GX (the pinnacle of raw calc power)
HP 35S (nice tool, but keyboard quality issue, other could be a candidate for a future legend)
HP 15C LIMITED EDITION (great calc, holds true to the original)
HP 48GX (my latest purchase on EBAY)

I think that all of the units were great and set HP apart from any other calculator manufacturer by far. I have used the 42s and 32sii models more than any other of the above. The 42s was my primary go to unit before I mistakenly thought that it had stopped functioning. I then went to the 32sii and the 48GX, which I used during Grad School. I found myself a little intimidated by the 48GX at one point. With great power comes a steep learning curve one might say :) However, I have recommitted myself to mastering it, and what a tool.

For an Electrical Engineer this tool is awesome, in part because of its ability to easily and conveniently handle complex numbers, which is a key point for those of us who deal with microwave circuits. The object oriented programming takes a little getting used to, but it is way more powerful and efficient than the keystroke programming found on the 41CV, 42S, 32SII, and other units. The expandability is something else about the machine about which I have become more appreciative. I brought the EE Pro and SPICE48 pacs a while ago, and I do find them useful on occasion.

To sum it up, the 48GX is the Electrical Engineers dream tool, and this puppy will never go out of style.Lire l'avis complet...

Great little machine

The GX is the top of the HP48 line - fast, and comes with 128K memory. It's a great tool whether just for day-to-day calculation use, whether you want to program repetivie tasks, or do a little bit of function graphing. The keys still have the classic feel of the HP line which is terrific when added to the greatly improved under-the-hood CPU. Great little machine.Lire l'avis complet...

Last of the great RPN calcs!

This is the last really great HP calc that is pure RPN. I've been a fan of RPN since my first HP (a 35) in 1974, and dislike any other interface format for a handheld device. Sure, the newer HPs (HP 49g, 49g+, 50g) have slightly more capability, but the 48gx has at least as much capability as most scientific and engineering professionals would ever use. Fortunately, these newer models also have RPN, as well as algebraic interface options, but they lack the big "Enter" key that we RPN fans have come to love.

If you've never tried it, get an HP with RPN capability and use it (in RPN mode, if there's also an algebraic option) for a week. You're almost certain to be converted by RPN's efficiency and ease of use. If you're fortunate enough to find a 48gx at a reasonable price, you'll soon be hooked on that big "Enter" key that seems to be located in exactly the right place!Lire l'avis complet...

Hewlett Packard HP 48GX 48G+ 48G Graphic Calcualtor

Many HP Calculator collectors consider the HP 48 to be the pinnacle of HP design and quality. Although the color scheme was a controversial jump from the standard Blue/Orange/Brown, many Engineering students in the late 1990s moved to the top-end HP model because of the expansion cards, and powerful RPL programming capabilities.

The HP 48GX is third in a series of closely related calculators. The 48GX has 128k RAM and 2 Expansion Card slots. The related 48G+ has 128K of RAM also, but lacks the card slots. The 48G has only 32K of RAM, and like the 48g+ does not have any expansion capability. USE CAUTION buying or selling any of these three on ebay because the look and operate the same except for memory size and expansion. Look closely at the top- left and top-right hand sides of the FRONT of the calculator to tell the difference. The Model number (48GX/48G+/48G) will be on the top left hand side of the calculator.Lire l'avis complet...

A reference among graphic scientific calculators

I would like to say THE reference but I know that they are Pro TI & Pro HP users then I don't want to initiate the usual polemic :)

Anyway, this calculator is wonderful, you will find a huge amount of programs on Internet and I am sure that you will find the one suitable for your needs and activity.

This calculator still belongs to the HP glory's day. What I want to say that its construction is rock solid.

There are 3 different models:
- HP-48G : With 32Kb memory and no expansion slot,
- HP-48G+ : With 128Kb memory and no expansion slot,
- HP-48GX : With 128Kb memory and 2 expension slots.

You can find 2 versions of this calculator differentiated by the display. One version shows a blue writting on green display, the other shows a black writting on yellow display.

The 2 expansion slots can receive additional memory expansion cards or applications cards.

The 48 series has a built-in infrared communication system to exchange datas with other calculators or to access a HP82240A/B infrared thermal printer.

This series is the dign successor of the 48S & 48SX that initiated this generation of RPL (its programming language) calculators.

It is not necessary to put a lot of money on this calculator because it is a very common model that can be found used around $120 maximum with a pouch, the owner's manual and the quick reference guide if you want to take the time.Lire l'avis complet...

Hewlett Packard 48gx Calculator. Get answers quicker.

When I used this calculator during my semester in Trigonometry consistently had my answers quicker than anyone else fumbling with their TI-83's. This is due to the RPN input style. Even better now, and in good quality is the HP-50g with which you can use it in Algebra mode or RPN. But, the older 48gx has the best quality as far as solidness and key function.Lire l'avis complet...

hp 48g graphing calculator

It's a great calculator for advanced math applications. One of the great features is the ability to stack the input figures for clarity. Also, the rpn feature becomes standard once you are accustomed to it, second nature. This particular calculator has been replaced with the 48gx, I believe, which is not as user friendly for my applications. I think hp should reconsider bringing this model back. It is an overall great calculator for almost any engineering/ scientific related equation as well as simple math computation.Lire l'avis complet...

engineers and scientist only

This calculator is a must have for engineers. However, one should understand that to take full advantage one has to learn how to use it. The best time to learn to do this is to when you are in school where you can use it to solve the toughest problems you will ever face. Such as solving electrical circuits using the matrix function and polar quardinates. This can solve the problem with practically writing nothing down, without you would spend a long time iterating. Another good time is when you are practicing for you EIT or professional engineering license. Other than that, in the professional world, with the many software programs, spreadsheets, and other things, you probably wont use it to its full extent. But once you do you will never want to be without. All you HP users know what I am talking about. So in short, it you have the time and are forced to learn, get it. If you are new to the HP world and the 48 series, you may want to look at cheaper option, unless your rich then go for it and learn at your own pace.Lire l'avis complet...

HP48GX Calculator with Manuals & Sparcom ME PAC

This calculator, HP48GX, item is in excellent condition as are the manuals and the Sparcom Mechanical Engineering software PAC. The "black" LCD screen is beautiful! I can read it easily because of the excellent contrast. I purchased these items for three main reasons. 1. I really like the quality of the calculator and the excellent user manuals all from Hewlett Packard. 2. The Sparcom "Pocket Prefessional" Mechanical Engineering software PAC is exceptionally suited for my work with ease of use. 3. The black LCD. I can't say enough positive words to describe these items!I am excited to use all of this and I know I will enjoy these items for years to come! RussLire l'avis complet...

Best RPN graphing calculator for Math & Engineering

This is my 3rd HP 48G series calculator since 1993 and one of 14 HPs in my calculator collection. I think it's one of the best scientific, graphing, RPN calculators. The newer calculators might be fast and come with more memory but the HP GX is probably more than enough for any math student, engineer or scientist and it will last longer.

Replacement of the CR2016 Lithium Coin Cell Battery from the Ram card might be little tricky.

I cannot comment on the COGO surveying card as I have no need to use it. Lire l'avis complet...
