Which does not mean it isn't an excellent tool, it's simply made for very different usage, for high school education. And although people here have proven the Prime can do the most amazing things ever done on a handheld calculator, it still may not be suitable if your expectations are for a device that acts in the spirit of a traditional HP machine.

Times change, even if some of us don't want them to...

I don't expect it to work in a traditional way. I just want to learn how to use it and found it's quite difficult. I found it takes too long to simply convert a value from one unit to another. I saw more than one post saying that it's for high school education and I really don't know what that means.

There is a shortcut for unit conversions, type in your number with its unit, then click > sto and then type in the new unit. Hit enter and you are done.
It’s not as good as hp48/hp50g but it is workable
