LED Back-Light Calculator Desktop SMT-200 / Added Sound Function (White)

This item has a lot of negative reviews and was cautioned with its high return rate. It was the only battery operated calculator with a backlit display at a great price point. I took my chances and ordered one. There were many negative reviews about the backlight not working. Mine works fine. You can turn off the confirmation beep if needed. Yes, the decimal key is located in an awkward position. That was not a dealbreaker for me. I’ve had it for over a week now and it’s still working perfectly. I hope this review helps with deciding to purchase.

I work from home, and ordered this for my home work station. I rely upon a calculator every day, and I love this product! The calculator sits at a high angle so I can see the numerical values, and the keys are big and clear so I always hit the right one.But what I love the most about this calculator is the LED backlight, which is a very unique feature. It makes seeing the numerical values so much easier!!! And this is an essential feature that I had been searching for. And once I stop using it for a few seconds, the LED backlight fades to save battery time. Every other calculator is boring and dull (from a lighting perspective) compared to this.

It seems to be a nice calculator but I was disappointed that it's not a musical calculator like my 1970s school days had. Its the same sound. I'm keeping it though because its easy to read and I like the dual power as opposed to just solar.

So disappointed in this purchase. Chinese writing all over box And instructions. Finally saw two little lines telling what to do for operation. I ordered because of poor Eyesite and expected it to light up numbers so I could see but light is barely on and shuts off right away. I won't bother sending it back, Probably throw it out. I scanned all the LED calculators and they all lock the same. I needed one that advertised "lighted" and this is a 1 out of 10. 10 being worst.

Chirp/beep a little annoying when you first turn it on but you can easily turn this function off by just pushing the music note key! You also have to get used to the fact that the decimal point is in the upper right corner of the calculator but that becomes second nature after a few uses! The backlit BLUE LIGHT makes it much easier to read then a regular calculator! Overall this is a great UNIQUE calculator that you will find no where else! I LOVE IT! Very pleased with this purchase!!!!!

I bought this because I thought, erroneously, that back lit meant the screen and the keys would be visible in a dark room so that I can still work while my granddaughter sleeps at night. The screen does light up but not the keys. Overall this is the only thing I found that I did not like about this item. The keys are spaced nicely so that you can see them in the light and not hit the wrong keys. All the functions work, it is a nice little desktop calculator for doing basic math functions.

I've been so disgusted trying to read LCD calculators, and have often wondered why I can't just pay a little bit more for one that I can actually read. Finally, browsing around, I found these little beauties. They are exactly what I was looking for. First off, there is a nice backlight, which makes them easy to read. LOVE THAT! Then, they have a sound function which can be turned on or off. Personally, I love having it on so there's an audio clue whenever a button is pushed. Speaking of buttons...the buttons are HUGE, making them easy to find and easy to use. My only quibble, and it's one that I'll get used to, I'm sure, is the placement of the decimal key. It's up at the top instead of down at the bottom where I keep looking for it. Not a big deal, but moving it to the bottom would make these perfect.

I use a calculator for basic "at home" tasks, but was having trouble seeing the numbers. I searched and searched, but could never find one with a light. Then one day, I found this one, and it meets my needs perfectly. I wish it had an "Off" button, but that is such a minor annoyance, it's not a real issue. This is the first calculator I have ever had with the "decimal point" button at the top - all my other calculators had it at the bottom, which makes more sense. I keep hitting the "equal" button that's at the bottom, but I'm getting retraining my brain to remember better at remembering it's at the top. Again, not a huge problem, just a moderate annoyance. Other than that, it is a basic calculator that does what I need it to do. I recommend it.
