People can argure TI has been doing the same thing with their devices, the difference is though TI hasn't really hurt the major math functionality, Numworks on the other hand removed a significant portion of the calculator's math functionality by removing user access to Open Source CAS which frankly leads me to think they deserve to be hit in their wallet.
Great update video, could be just a bit louder. Question about the firmware, do you keep your eye on the numworks website for the updates or does it automatically update once you plug it into the computer with internet connection? And just to confirm, your jailbreak video is still relevant?
The jailbreak video is still relevant! The NumWorks will only update if you go through the steps on the NumWorks website. Don't worry, it's safe to plug it into your computer 😉
Even though the mini USB connector may seem dated in comparison to the micro USB B connector, I find the mini USB connector to be far more durable over a lifespan of use.
Ti Calculators are a bit like Fluke multimeters, they are expensive, they are the most used and well-known by electricians (similar to how Ti calculators are the most well-known and used by schools), and they have been making some of them for a very long time (think the Fluke 87V and Ti-84 Plus, which were actually released the same year).
Great videos! Could you do a video showing how to install CAS OS for non-CAS enabled TI-Nspires? I've looked around for a while and found a couple of guides, but most of them are quite old and have dead links that render them useless today, I would love to know if this is still possible now.
Sounds like a cool idea! I'll do some research now, but I'll need to get a non-CAS Nspire to do an accurate tutorial. It does sound like a great video idea, so I'll keep it in mind for sure!
@@TInyHackerCalcs I did get one a few months ago, and now I'm finally getting around to mentioning it. I've been super busy at work, so much so that I said the heck with it and retired.
I was just going by the price on Casio's website at the time, but things can definitely be a lot cheaper if you look around. I felt like it made the most sense to compare prices on the official websites just so it was a more even benchmark.
Great video! It's a bit quiet but you still did great with the editing! Even with the ridiculous restrictions, Numworks is still a very solid calculator especially for the price. I wish I had some more experience with it to make some content.
Haha, thanks! I made this one quieter since I felt like my past ones were a bit loud, but it seems I made it a bit too quiet! 😛 I do highly recommend the NumWorks, but I'm hoping to make some content related to other calculators again soon also. There's just a lot going on with NumWorks that hasn't been documented by other channels yet, so I feel like that's important too.
@@ianthehunter3532 That's unfortunate. I was aware that it was slightly more expensive in Europe but I didn't know that it was that much. The best bet would probably be to wait until it's back in stock on numworks.com then.
What is the coolest graphing calculator in your opinion today? Is there something better than HP prime? I like playing with them as they are. Not really into changing firmwares.
I don't personally have experience with the HP prime. It's hard to say what is necessarily "coolest", but the NumWorks with Upsilon is definitely my favorite for math stuff out of what I've used (way easier to use than the Nspire CX II for sure). The TI-84 Plus CE has significantly worse hardware and is a lot more limited but is definitely the way to go if you're interested in community software or making your own stuff for the calculator, since it has the largest collection of resources (other than older models like the 83 and 84 Plus monochrome calculators).
Buy a used TI off eBay or Goodwill. I bought my kids the HP Prime, but all the teacher instructions were based on TI. I ended up getting them TI ones later on.
Sorry if this us unrelated, but i need some quick advice, I am considering getting a Nspire but I have no idea if the CAS or the II really add anything, so far I still dont know if some programs just wont run because of the model. All I know so far is the color screen is needed for most stuff.
You want the cas version unless you are getting it explicitly for the ACT which is the only reason this model even has to exist because there proctors can't be bothered to come up with ways to use TI's test mode functionality.
@@TInyHackerCalcs just did, It's gonna be a huge help for my statistics class. I recently lost my ti-84 charger, so I've been without an actual calculator for a while, and this works great.
Yup, but only in Portugal and France. I was hoping to do an N0120 review, but since I live in the US and NumWorks didn't want to send me one, there wasn't really any way for me to get it.
Haha! I don't work at NumWorks, and I doubt they'd hire me after some of the videos I've made 😛 I'm also a he, but my voice is still kind of high pitched lol
Lack of AAA is a huge issue you silly kid. Regular built int accumulators are a huge issue and are used only by huge anti-environmental people. Micro is also more prone to physical damage. Only mini or USB C if you want to use it for a long time. Perhaps you should learn a bit more before you start making some reviews...
You bring up a good point: batteries (in general) are not good for the environment. However, built-in accumulators are not only used by huge anti-environmental people, unless most people using cellphones and laptops are huge anti-environmental people. Almost all modern calculators other than CASIO models do not use AAA batteries as well. The average student will use their calculator for 3-5 years and probably not much after that, and the port and battery will almost always last that long. Also: What makes AAA so much better? This is a calculator review, not a battery review, so I prioritized research on the calculator itself.

I'm about to order one tomorrow. Thank you so much.
Enjoy the new calculator! I'm glad the video helped!

I agree, the mini USB definitely seems a lot more durable.
micro usb cables get loose so easily
Yes and now it's much better with the usb c port

Hi Tiny! Nice review, I might have to get one of these. :)
You should! It's one of my favorite calculators.

@@MrWaalkman You'll have to let me know what you think of it 😀
I don't think that the casio fx-cg50 is ACTUALLY 120-130$ because most places will have a discount and i found my casio fx-cg50 for only 83 dollars.

The purchase button doesn't seem to work anymore, are they out of stock on their website?
You can try buying it on amazon if it's not working on the numworks website. It's the same price in both places, so it should be fine!
@@TInyHackerCalcs Unfortunately it's around 40 € more expensive in Europe :(

The web emulator is pretty cool though.

The CAS model has a Computer Algebra System, and the II is just a newer version (Faster, etc.)

Can you do a comparison video between The HP Prime, Numworks, and Ti-nspire cx ii CAS?
I could try to do a comparison at some point, sadly not right now though since I don't own an HP Prime 🙁
Could you do a tutorial on how to jailbreak with phi on the N0110 because I haven’t seen any documents or video showing how to jailbreak for the N0110
You can jailbreak it using a tutorial here: guide.getomega.dev/ I'll keep that in mind, maybe I'll make a video tutorial in the future!

ti-nspire cx seems to be the best calculator to play game (you can emulate gba games :D)
