I'm truly surprised there was no easy way to map those buttons. It would be a lot more useful if someone can figure it out. I actually think the screen on this thing looks really nice and crisp.
That reminded me of one of those stripped-down Chinese e-dictionaries that had to be stripped down to allow them to be taken into Singaporean primary and secondary schools. I tried one at a Popular, and noticed that it had bits of familiar UI and UI transitions. I could tell that it was running a heavily locked down and stripped down version of Android 4.4 with its stock UX, but it was so locked down that I couldn't break out of the dictionary software on the retail demo unit I tried.
I love how our teachers told us we'd never have a calculator in our pockets all the time and now we've gotten to that point. So much to that we've put android on our calculators
how old are you exactly? I mean you must have been school-age between 1954 and 1966 for a teacher to have made that comment as calculators shrank to pocket size by 1967, 71 if you were looking for true pocket-sized portability.
@@hdofu I was born in 1985 and I've heard that line from teachers before. It's more about a calculator not being something people used to carry around with them on a daily basis.
About ten days late; but, I just want to add my voice to the chorus of people who thought this video was fun, interesting, and would like to see a sequel where you finally figure out how to get the buttons mapped. Honestly; I enjoyed this more than the ROG Ally stuff. If you could get the keyboard working then I expect this would be great as a portable DOSBox.
If you could build a version of Armbian that would run on it, it could be a decent cheap raspberrypi alternative SBC for running mainsail/klipper for 3D printers. You could probably even use the touch screen with klipper/screen to control mainsail.
Looks like there are solder pads open for another chip. Imagine if you had that chip and the paste and necessary passives to hot air rework it on the board.

Now $88 and out of stock
He found one for 10 🤷🏻♂️
@@rphntw1nNo🙋🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
@@rphntw1n He didn't. The PCB board is even more than that.
Will the video did get 3 million views so it's normal maybe back then it was 10$ when no one knew about it
that calculator already looked like it can play doom etarnal
This is the exact content I am looking for that no one else provides on RUclips.
Subbed for more future calculator content.
Taki, this is easily my favorite of yours, and that is an impressive achievement.
Parents: "Aw look at our boy he really loves to study he can't leave his Calculator..."
Him:
I'm truly surprised there was no easy way to map those buttons. It would be a lot more useful if someone can figure it out. I actually think the screen on this thing looks really nice and crisp.
Other RUclipsr: *play with ROG Ally
Taki: Hmm.. What can I do with this Calculator… 😂
XDDD
🤣
The fact this calculator runs faster than my phone
Don’t think my math teacher would allow this, he’d sure be impressed though
that's why it looks like a basic 8-function calculator, just don't slide your finger down.
I remember having a PC back in the day that couldn't run doom3 and it cost £1000 wow
Cool video 👍 looking forward to see more items!
I mean, you weren't _running_ Doom Eternal on it. The title is a little misleading.
That reminded me of one of those stripped-down Chinese e-dictionaries that had to be stripped down to allow them to be taken into Singaporean primary and secondary schools.
I tried one at a Popular, and noticed that it had bits of familiar UI and UI transitions. I could tell that it was running a heavily locked down and stripped down version of Android 4.4 with its stock UX, but it was so locked down that I couldn't break out of the dictionary software on the retail demo unit I tried.
its not surprising you got doom to run. it is surprising this type of stuff only costs 10$ these days
*_If It Exist, There's A Doom Port For It It._*
I remember playing snake and that box game on a texas instrument calculator back in the day. And now this, what a time we live in.
Hacking these days means "I installed an app".
Suspected it would be streaming doom running elsewhere, and it was.
I found this online and it's much more like $100, im curious where you would have found it for $10
Where can I get one of these? My searches ended up with DHL shipping calculator 😂
"damn I really wanna play doom eternal" the one guy in class who owns a calculator "I gotchu fam"
I love how our teachers told us we'd never have a calculator in our pockets all the time and now we've gotten to that point. So much to that we've put android on our calculators
how old are you exactly? I mean you must have been school-age between 1954 and 1966 for a teacher to have made that comment as calculators shrank to pocket size by 1967, 71 if you were looking for true pocket-sized portability.
@@hdofu I was born in 1985 and I've heard that line from teachers before. It's more about a calculator not being something people used to carry around with them on a daily basis.
@@hdofu I was born in 1994 and all my math teachers said that growing up. It only really stopped when iPhone came out lol
@@zackhickey4922so true. I can confirm that I only ever heard that in elementary school, and I was born in 2000
@@wolfetteplays8894 2005 kid here, still heard it.
Wow this is some cool stuff. Not exactly practical but something fun to use.
Hacking into stuff and running doom is the new trend
About ten days late; but, I just want to add my voice to the chorus of people who thought this video was fun, interesting, and would like to see a sequel where you finally figure out how to get the buttons mapped. Honestly; I enjoyed this more than the ROG Ally stuff.
If you could get the keyboard working then I expect this would be great as a portable DOSBox.
This is so fucking stupid...
I love it!
XD
No you didn't. Those calculators are more than $10... and super hard to find in the U.S...
The prices when up since then and he bought it from someone for 10 dollars
This is very cool - kind of reminded me of the digital pregnancy test that had doom working on it. Do you have a link to buy the calculator?
Now an entire generation of children will have another distraction in class! Thanks Taki!😂
Imagine your math teacher walks to your desk just to see you playing Pokémon on your Calculator That’s running android.
This beats the crap out of the games we had running on the TI-84s !
Anyone remember dope wars??
If you could build a version of Armbian that would run on it, it could be a decent cheap raspberrypi alternative SBC for running mainsail/klipper for 3D printers. You could probably even use the touch screen with klipper/screen to control mainsail.
ive never felt older than i do right now seeing a calculator with a touch screen for the first time in my life
Boss: "Ok, so we're thinking of making a budget calculator. How much RAM should it have?"
Engineer: "Yes."
Looks like there are solder pads open for another chip. Imagine if you had that chip and the paste and necessary passives to hot air rework it on the board.
When you have a history test but you bring the calculator in
Lol, this calculator can emulate more systems than the RG350 😅
well it has way better specs
This video is going to make the price go up because other youtubers are going to try to make the same videos after this. You just opened an android calculator floodgate.
Yup. And i hope that it serves a point to people don't over complicated simple devices
Play store:free time saving
aint no way in hell a touch screen calculator cost $10 tf
imagine something like this back in the 90's. it's insane how spoiled we are today that we can emulate dreamcast (albeit poorly) on a $10 calculator.
having mario 64 on the go would have looked like witchcraft in the 90s
The ds existed...
@@anonymous-rm3ut in 2004 yes...iam talking like..playing a mario 64 emulation on a school bus in 95
Let's not forget 80s babies from avgn, playing old school stuff and even newer gaming console on a calculator?? Hell taki has played miiu and that emulates 80s/90s consoles plus has a ips screen and it requited taki to review it otherwise racist people will just say its cheap crap made by Chinese when its pretty fun
brother i am a 2000’s kid and even then this would be unheard of. A 10$ calculator that can run ds games.
Bouta pull out the doom eternal calculator middle of the math test
What was that? I suppose I was still sleeping and dreaming all of this.
But in case if I don't... Does it mean we can have a nice powerful enough console FOR 10 BUCKS?
I VERY MUCH enjoyed this random video!!! It is insane to me that $10 worth of computing power can do so much these days... My first computer was a 286 with 60 MEGABITES of storage 😳
this is made using recycled parts that they would have trashed anyway that's why it costs 10 dollars
Now that's a lot of bites, hopefully the worker's teeth were alright after making it
Dude...wau.Thats amazing : ) good job
No way this calculator is $10
Correct, it’s $74.
@@Super_Bros. that makes a lot more sense
