This handheld electronic calculator has an off-white plastic case and an array of twenty rectangular plastic keys. These include ten digit keys, a decimal point key, four arithmetic function keys, a change sign key, a percentage key, a square root key, a clear entry key, and a clear key. Above the keyboard on the right is the on/off switch. Left of it is a switch for setting a constant and left of this a switch for setting the position of the decimal point.
Behind these is an eight-digit red LED display. A mark behind it reads: UNITREX (/) mini handy 80R. A jack for a power adapter is along the back edge.
The back has a compartment for a nine-volt battery. A mark on the back of the cover of this compartment reads: A17D03893. Text on a sticker attached to the calculator at the base of the back reads: UNITREX mini handy 80R (/) EIKO BUSINESS MACHINE CO. LTD. (/) DC 9V 0.45W MADE IN JAPAN.
