The financial people I know all own 12Cs and they've been in continuous production since '81 although the innards are just a very boring ARM processor now.
They do what people want, the keyboard feel is infinitely smoother than tapping on a phone, etc.
I have an HP-41 app on my phone that the author gave to me when I was doing some product reviews early-on in the smartphone days. But definitely not the same as the physical HP calculator.
Yeah, the 12C was the standard in business school. But I needed a new calculator and the 41 with its various modules worked fine and was more general purpose.
