- Is the TI-84 Plus CE allowed on the SAT and ACT?
- Yes. The College Board and ACT both permit the TI-84 Plus CE. It is one of the most common calculators in test rooms.
- How is it different from the older TI-84 Plus?
- The CE has a color screen, a rechargeable battery and a slimmer body. The older Plus uses AA batteries and a monochrome screen. Menus and key layout are nearly the same.
- Does it have a computer algebra system?
- No. It graphs, solves equations numerically and runs programs, but it will not simplify or factor symbolic algebra. For that you need the TI-Nspire CAS.

- Most owners get several days of normal class use per charge. Heavy graphing drains it faster. It charges from a wall outlet or a computer with the included cable.

- The calculator, a rechargeable battery, a charging cable and a printed guidebook. A slide cover is included on most versions.
