DALLAS, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments Education Technology (TI), a division of the global semiconductor company, today announced the launch of the TI-84 Evo Graphing Calculator, the latest and most powerful addition to the TI-84 series. Featuring a 3x faster processor, 50% more graphing space, and a redesigned keypad, the TI-84 Evo is a deliberate evolution of a platform educators and students have relied on for decades, built to meet the demands of today's math classroom and grow with students from middle school algebra all the way through college and future STEM careers.
The best TI-84 ever – evolution of a trusted platform
The TI-84 Evo is designed to keep pace with how fast students think and work, allowing them to see more of the math at once. New and improved math features — such as points of interest trace or the improved Lines and Conics app — give students more ways to engage deeply with concepts without skipping straight to the answers.
"The TI-84 Evo represents our commitment to continuous innovation in educational technology," said Laura Chambers, President of TI Education Technology. "We've taken everything educators and students love about the TI-84 series and evolved it to meet the needs of today's learners."
Improved usability
With the new icon-based menu of the TI-84 Evo, students spend less time learning the tool and more time learning the math. Mathematical expressions are presented in a clear format, and visual icons help students quickly identify the right functions. USB-C charging and an evolved interface round out an experience that's new, but still familiar, designed to feel approachable for first-time users and second nature for returning ones.
"I love that the TI-84 Evo keeps all the features you know and love about the TI-84 but enhances them and makes it even more student friendly and easy to use!" said Ashley Hawley (@algebra.einstein), Florida high school math teacher. "One of my favorite new features is that I can trace along the graph to find points of interest quickly so I can focus on interpreting function meaning in context."
Designed for learning, proven for testing
Approved for major standardized exams – including the ACT®, SAT®, IB® and AP® – students can walk into every exam with the same calculator they used in their class and homework, and that familiarity builds the kind of confidence that makes a real difference on test day. Research confirms this consistency matters: 94% of teachers and administrators say students perform better on exams when they use the same calculator for assessment, practice and instruction. (EdWeek Research Center, 2025).
Built to keep students focused — and succeeding
As 45 states move to restrict cell phones in classrooms, educators and students need tools designed for deep, uninterrupted learning. According to a 2025 EdWeek Research Center study, 81% of teachers and administrators say that students are better able to focus on math when they are using a handheld calculator. The TI-84 Evo is exactly that: a single-purpose tool engineered to do one thing exceptionally well — math. No notifications. No social media. No distractions. Just the focused, purpose-built experience students need to learn, practice and excel.
The TI-84 Evo is available in white (the standard color), mint, pink, purple, teal, raspberry and silver. The new graphing calculator is available for purchase at major retailers and instructional dealers nationwide. For more information, visit education.ti.com/evo.
