This calculator works especially well for left hand fast addition for accounting plus so many other functions. The dual LCD is terrific and clear with the upper screen able to record 300 entries and display them in history with forward and back buttons for double checking your work. The keys are comfortable to use and the size and layout is much like older best designs of Sharp Calculators.Cons --- Had a difficult time finding the info about how the 2nd button works as a function key that gives many keys a 2nd function. The instruction sheet is crazy tiny. I downloaded the PDF from the Sharp Website but still found it difficult to find specific details. For instance, it can turn itself off over time if unused but if you want to turn it off you need to hit a combination of the 2nd key and the C key together. That was buried somewhere unexpected in the instructions. Other than that the keys are a little sloppy with movement but accurate with good location feel non-the-less and I might opt for a slight design placement of keys due to my use of older Sharp calculators.Sharp needs to improve their instructions and especially separate the English language page from Spanish.Overall I'm significantly impressed keeping 5 stars for a great Sharp innovative product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No ink, no paper, a joy to use. No entry edit. *by on Reviewed in the United States October 25, 2019* This review is for the compact version EL-1501.I work from home a few days a week and my desk, complete with dual monitors has little space left. I absolutely need a printing calculator as I am prone to inverting numbers.This calculator gets the job done. It’s lightweight, no power cord to get in the way, the readout is big and bright. The readout is easy to read. The secondary “paper” screen needs to be adjusted for best viewing angle though.This functions just like the office calculators I have been using for the last 40 years. The keys are large enough to use comfortably and are not too sensitive.I love the results screen that lets me review my entries. It did take me a minute to figure out how to get back to input mode after reviewing on the upper screen.Forget about trying to read the manual! It’s 1 folded page with instructions in English and Spanish. The type size is about 1/4 of that of a phone book. You’re better off downloading the PDF manual and zooming in.I like this so much I purchased a second one for my desk at the office. Since we are no longer allowed to keep anything on our desks and must clear everything off when we leave, we have to carry everything back and forth in a little caddy and store our stuff in a small locker box. This is small enough and very light so toting back and forth is a breeze.Batteries are rated to last about a year with normal use. There’s also an auto shutoff which helps.One last thing I want to address: It seems that some reviews for the larger version complain about not being able to clear the upper screen. Some have stated that you need to press the tiny reset button while others have listed magical voodoo motions to clear the screen.Not so with the smaller model. All you do is press the “2nd” key followed by the back arrow key and poof! All gone! Plus the keys are right next to each other. Maybe it works differently on the larger model.This calculator is a joy to use. It’s a bit more expensive than the compact printing calculators, but well worth it as there’s no additional ink or paper costs.I just wish it had the edit feature of its bigger brother. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great calculator *by on Reviewed in the United States May 15, 2024* I love the back lit display, it folds down when not in use. it's portable because you don't have to plug in. Buttons are easily read. The only thing is missing is just instructions on how to use some of the functions. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sharp El-1501 Compact Cordless Paperless Large 12-Digit Display Desktop Printing Calculator That Utilizes Printing Calculator Logic - Scotch Classic Desktop Tape Dispenser, Black, 1-inch Core, Made from 100% Recycled Plastic, 1 Dispenser - Casio MS-80B Calculator – Desktop Calculator with Tax & Currency Tools | General Purpose | Large Display | Ideal for Home, Office & Everyday Math --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/124646562-compact-cordless-paperless-business-calculator-12-digit-display-with-5](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/124646562-compact-cordless-paperless-business-calculator-12-digit-display-with-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
