Do ppl still use dedicated scientific calculators in the age of pocket computers?

Scientific calculators were some of the first pocket computers.

Does your pocket computer have physical buttons?

[–] tal@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

I suppose it could, if you wanted to carry a foldable USB or Bluetooth keyboard or keypad.

The age of pocket computers ended with the Atari Portfolio. What we got now is the electronic form of Soma.
