Which HP12 to buy?

[Gamo]

If you're consider only the HP-12C there are various model.

I own three type

1. HP-12C (made in Singapore) the 90's version
2. HP-12C+ (made in China) the 20's version
3. HP-12C Platinum (made in Philippines)

For my personal experience on these three 12C
I like all of them each have pro and con so get
any 12C to try them out since they're not expensive.

The 12C Singapore give you true feeling of it original 12C like the USA edition.
The 12C+ China give you all the same functions with much faster computation speed.
The 12C Platinum give you more options and features that can be use both in RPN or ALG mode
plus large capactiy of the programming space and extra goodies like Back Space, Undo and X^2 functions.
