A very good device for 100 bucks, a cool high-quality state employee for beginners and unassuming users. allows you to learn how to play an instrument

Pros
  • it has everything and even more than you need. good sound, comfortable, stylish, full-sized keys, good built-in speakers, connects to PC as a MIDI device
Cons
  • -does not recognize the force of pressing, you have to show off with crescendo and diminuendo, legato and staccato. - there is no power supply, but I did it myself, since the radio mechanic is to the heap), the power supply plug is 4.8mm x 1.7mm outer and inner diameters, respectively, 9-9.5 Volts 1-1.5 Amperes (possible for 2 Amperes, then finally it won’t warm up during a long game), the pulse stabilized power supply is required

He would cost seven thousand, but with a power supply, of course - this is his true price category. Suitable for finger training, pleasant pastime, solfeggio. For piano lessons, don't even think about it. Pros below: Compact, lightweight, nice looking. Can be used as a MIDI keyboard. Has some cons: The speakers are small, so the sound through them is a squeaker. But in headphones or through good acoustics - decent enough (except for the piano: well, it's not Yamaha or Korg).

In general, everything is not bad, but I expected more.

The synthesizer is not suitable for playing classical pieces - no pedal, insensitive keyboard. But for everything else, it is very good, there are very pleasant timbres, rhythms. And the price is nice. Has pros: Lightweight, compact, intuitive interface, decent sound for a synthesizer Has some cons: Weird headphone jack. When headphones are plugged in, the sound is rattling and disgusting, but if you move the headphone plug, you can find a position in which the sound is normally heard. Tried on

The best thing I've ever used, a great item for everyone!

Its pros: A lightweight synthesizer was chosen as a hobby gift for my daughter. Without unnecessary functionality, outwardly elegant. Intuitive. Its cons: No power adapter included, ordered separately. Approached)) Adapter as in models 200 and 300. At 9 Volts

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

Cool thing for your money! Full-sized keys, which creates the illusion of playing on a real piano. They are unweighted, of course, but I don't think anyone should expect more from a synthesizer. As for the sound . I'd be lying if I said that the sound is excellent. No, he's not great. But again, you should not expect high-quality sound from it. What is there is perfectly acceptable. For study (for beginners), for children who may be abandoned the next day after purchase, or just for fun (I took

Pros
  • Described in the body of the review
Cons
  • Can't find it to be honest

In fact, when I bought it, I was looking for a MIDI keyboard, but with primitive synthesizer functions, so that I could sometimes play without connecting to a computer or phone. But the disadvantage I have pointed out, of course, does not allow it to be used for anything other than as a child's toy. Well, what, even the most minimal expressiveness, can we talk about if you can’t play quieter or louder? Any music extracted from this "instrument" will sound like a drum roll. Very surprised by the

Pros
  • It is light, the sounds are pleasant, the return of the keys is five for this price range, and the fact that the keys are not glossy, but rough, too. Music stand included.
Cons
  • Unfortunately, all of the above advantages are crossed out by one huge drawback - there is no sensitivity to velocity. Yes, no matter how you press the key, the sound will still be the same volume. In light of this, the music stand looks like a mockery.

A good product, I advise you to try it.

For the price, this is an excellent product. The keyboard is quite wide, but of course, absolutely virtuoso works cannot be played on it, after all, it is not full-sized. The sound is like that of a synthesizer, you can hear that electronics, and not a real piano, digital pianos certainly do not sound like that. The keys are also synthesizer, that is, the weight is almost not felt when pressed (very little), but this is still normal, it can be worse. I think that for such a price you can hardly

Pros
  • Parameter price / quality - worthy Good sound The keys are generally similar to the real ones. Compact
Cons
  • It's just a synth. and there was no power supply included, I had to buy separately for 1200(about 10% of the cost of the synthesizer)
