When you look at Amazon for ‘BA II Plus’ you get calculators that look like this:
But my calculator looks like this:
They’re both BA II Plus but I think mine is the old version that was phased out a few years back. Is this still accepted for the CFA exams?

I have a BA II Pro, can confirm that the battery is impossible to replace.

If you are happy to pay the higher price, might as well get it.
The BA II Plus Pro, er, Pros:
Sturdier build and looks better (subjective of course)Designed for battery to be changed without having to need a screwdriver (but this is notoriously tricky)Discounted Payback Period feature (nice to have, not required for CFA)NFV feature (nice to have, not required for CFA)
Cons:
Some people complain that it’s not as responsive, and that’s important because you want to make sure your input is correct!Usually more expensive
