Nice review! Thanks, Adam

What apps are being shown in this video. That connect to the keyboard to light up the keys.

Thanks for the review, can you replace the battery when it wears out from recharging? Bit concerned about the ecological credentials of the instrument, nice as it may be.

Sounds pretty cheesy to me does it sound better plugged in? Or recording directly?

You're right, the sound on its own can be a bit on the basic side. It's a good option for beginners or casual playing, but for a more 'professional' sound, you might want to consider a higher-end keyboard. Plugging it in or recording directly might offer some improvement, but the core sound will remain ..cheesy..

Thanks for the good review! But I want to ask is it possible to turn off the light that appears on the keys?

Thanks for the nice feedback. Btw. The under-keys lights can be turned off in the menu.

Thanks for a very good video review. One question that I don’t think was covered in the video. Are the keys sensitive to the amount of pressure you put on them?

Hi. Thanks for your feedback. And - yes, the keys are touch sensitive, they have 4 levels of the dynamics, so very basic.

Thanks for the review. It's good news, but 88 keys are too many on a semi-weighted keyboard. Am eagerly awaiting a true weighted hammer action piano in a folding instrument. Speakers can be separate if necessary, or the two parts could be separate to distribute weight. There must be a market for a more professional version of this folding keyboard.

thanks for the comment! You're absolutely right. The portability of the this keyboard is a huge plus, but it's tough to get that pro-level weighted hammer action in a completely foldable format. It's definitely a technical hurdle for any manufacturer at this point. Speaking of foldable keyboards, I actually just reviewed another one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZXl4k8Zyoq7Al5c.html - and while I was hoping it would be more "pro-oriented" its also geared towards beginners and maybe students - it has a similar semi-weighted action and even fewer sounds, plus no split feature... Anyway, for serious performers who need to be on the go, I dont think there are any foldable keyboards out there yet that can actually compete with a traditional weighted-action instrument... kind regards.

@@FamilyPopTV Indeed. Well, my solution was to buy a Yamaha P-121. It's too big for public transport, but it is the most portable piano with a graded weighted action that I have ever found. Sadly, it seems to be deleted now.

hi, is there an app that controls the light in the piano keys, in order to guide the users to press the right key?

Do you want online piano classes ? That would be your light in the keys.

Thanks for the amazing review 10/10 👍

I would love to try performing on the street. So on what surface would I place this piano ?

You'll probably need a simple and lightweight X-folding stand.

I heard there are only 3 levels of volume for each key based on how hard you press it. Is thay true?

Hi. Thanks for the comment. Yes, the keys having only 3 or 4 levels of velocity. Not much but it's still enough for a beginners and enough to have some dynamics when playing.

Looks pretty good. I do have a question. This is a fairly low priced full sized keyboard so I'm expecting my question to be answered no but I'll ask anyway. Is there any potential to actually output the sound to an amplifier to get a better sound out of it? There, I said it......thanks, Ed...... 🙂

Hi. Yes, it can be plugged into an amplifier via the headphone output (stereo mini jack). I regret not mentioning this in the video. Hope it helps, thanks for the comment.

@@FamilyPopTV Indeed it does help and I've purchased one, being over 70, though I have a 'portable' Yamaha CY-88, it's not what I'd call really portable for me any more at my age. This fits the bill very nicely, sounds like a very nice instrument in spite of it's low cost. Thanks very much for your review.

I'm glad you decided to get this portable keyboard. Portability was the main factor that convinced me to buy it too. THis plastic piano obviously not going to sound as good as your professional-grade CY-88, but it's still a cheerful instrument and it does the job. By the way, 70 is just a number and I'm glad to hear that you're still actively playing the keys - I'm 47 this year, and I can't seem to force myself to sit down and practice anymore...I think I've just lost it... My fingers feel like pieces of wood, that's lack of practice. And thanks for your comment. It's always nice to hear from other keyboarders!

@@FamilyPopTV Yes, 70 is a number but it's a big number. Things have changed but I still play piano and ukulele. Both are still fun for me. My practice these days consist of playing songs, so not real practice but it's fun and it keeps me going. You have a very nice touch on the piano, you should definitely keep it up and I'd suggest just find something that hits your heart, you'll practice when that happens. You'll WANT to. Anyway, this will certainly help me be more portable with an instrument that until now has not been terribly portable in the real sense of the word. It's one reason I took up the ukulele, it fits all the bills. I have a teacher's certificate for ukulele from James Hill, look him up, he's very interesting and listen to some of his music. It will dispel any notion that the ukulele is a toy. When I was working, I put together 5 women to play in a Christmas part. We did a 1/2 hour set and it was very well received. I'd been teaching them for about 3-5 months, depending on the student and that's what I had to work with. The joy on their faces when the concert was done was amazing and it just pumped me up so much. I used to play for the seniors in Squamish (it's where I live) but then covid hit so it's much harder to do what I did then. I played both ukulele and piano. i really enjoyed seeing their eyes light up to the music. I'm hoping restrictions are lifted somewhat so I can do my thing with them again. Anyway, before I end up writing a book, I'd better sign off. Keep playing and love it. Find the things in music that make your heart soar and you will practice and love practicing.....

Hm and location

Is it possible connect it with the tablet by USB? , ...than I will connect the tablet to my Bluetooth headphones...

@Carolina-mw4po

Bluetooth earphones have latency due to the bluetooth protocol involved before the sound is heard. You'll have to use wired headphones from your tablet jack output. If your tablet has no headphones output, you'll got to connect your tablet usb to a usb splitter, then connect the keyboard to one of the usb splitter output, and a sound card to other of the usb splitter outputs. A pretty simple usb sound card adapter would be enough. Hope this hepls.

@Carolina-mw4po

On the other hand, it is way probable that this keyboard has a builtin bluetooth midi send. That one won`t have any latency and it`ll keep your tablet usb port free to connect the sound card adapter. This way you can get rid of the usb splitter.

Oops, bletak bletuk? But, aha - it's got light. How about that rather distanced middle E and F keys?

Looks like quite a bit of latency

It sounds terrible

Se stai zitto capiamo come suona!😂

Dont buy it, the feeling on the keys is very toy-like. If you're used to a good keyboard, this will be a disappointment
