Awesome! It’s closer to a toy than a serious instrument, however it’s lots of fun to play. could be useful for practicing while on the go, especially if learning fingerings for a piece or playing some baroque. But all in all, lots of fun and awesome for the price !
Probably the best as far as portable keyboards go
I’m a professional pianist and I know this isn’t made for serious players. As far as portable keyboards go, this one is the best I’ve tried. It’s really easy to pack up and carry, the piano sound is better than any other under $200 keyboard I’ve tried. The fact that it has the ability to use a pedal makes it stand out.
Would definitely recommend if you want something portable to play simple and slow songs. Anything beyond that is going to be difficult to execute on this or any other fold-up portable keyboard.
My one gripe with this one is that the black keys are too low and short. They should stick up above the white keys more and be a little longer. Also all the keys need to be just slightly harder to press. They’re so soft that if you even just rest a finger on it, you’ll play the key. This results in lots of wrong keys being accidentally pressed. For the price point though, this might be asking for too much.
It does what it says just the black keys are short you have to get used to it. No difference in sound when different pressure is applied. So happy it came with a foot pedal and it’s super convenient. The keys are a little wide. Had a lot of sound options

Prima Reisebegleiter !
Lsst sich gut mitnehmen, funktioniert gut. Tasten knnten ein wenig fester montiert sein.
This is pretty sick... (if you are a piano enthusiast and of good skill)
I’ve had so much fun with this product… you can throw it in your backpack and take it literally anywhere (aka rafting down rivers, hiking in the woods, etc).
One thing worth noting is that the built-in speakers are trash. This is fine though, because I just bring a nice waterproof speaker with me, and plug the piano in via aux cord. With the speakers, it actually doesn’t sound too bad.
Additionally, there’s a lot of flex in the keyboard, so you can grab two broomsticks (they can double as hiking sticks) and dual-lock them to piano when you’re ready to play.
Finally, perhaps the best feature is that it’s midi compatible, meaning if you’re a composer, you can input notes directly into your music software if it’s plugged into your computer.
Definitely worth the price in my opinion!
OK-ish sound clarity, even max volume sounds a bit low. But otherwise I love everything about it. Long battery life, comes with a pedal, audio-out for headphones, as well as ability to hook up to a laptop. All of these give me the freedom to travel and still ensure my kiddo doesn't miss her classes.

Sorprendente! :-)
El primero lleg con unas teclas que no funcionaban. El cambio fue rapidsimo!
Desde entonces, tras ms de medio ao de uso, sigue funcionando, suena bien o muy bien y tiene bastantes funciones.
Muy buena relacin calidad precio
My dad plays piano by ear and has been missing it while he’s been in the hospital. I bought this because it’s compact and easy to travel with. While no one should expect anything more than what it is—it’s great for the value and it’s portability.
It will not stay flat on its own though, so you will need a flat surface underneath it. I found a pergo board to lay it flat on and it worked perfect. But just keep that in mind. That would be the only downside to it, that the pieces do not lock in place. But again, for what it is, I think it’s great.
And most importantly, it’s making my dad very happy in the hospital! It’s doing exactly what I wanted it to, which is trigger his memory and his motor skills. He said it doesn’t sound like his piano at home.and I had to remind him this is not a baby grand piano, it’s an $80 keyboard.
Music is magic.
J’ai plus de 30 ans de piano/ MAO, et je trouve que l’ide du piano 88 touches pliables est excellente. Parfait pour partir en vacances si on veut bricoler un peu des sons, voire un peu pratiquer. Pour ceux qui recherchent une bonne qualit de son, passez votre chemin, personnellement je m’en sert uniquement avec mon Ipad et un bon DAW. Et le midi fonctionne parfaitement, je n’observe aucune latence.
Les charnires ont l’ait trs fragiles, donc je pense que c’est manipuler avec prcaution. D’ailleurs je conserve le carton d’origine pour le transporter, le sac en toile fourni avec me parait un peu juste.
La pdale de substain fonctionne trs bien.
Le gros bmol, c’est l’absence de sensibilit des touches, contrairement ce qui est indiqu dans la descritpion. Et a c’est vraiment dommage !
Donc en dfinitive, ceci ne peut tre qu’un clavier d’appoint. Il est ncessaire de le brancher du matriel connexe pour avoir un bon son, mais en aucun cas je recommande pour un premier apprentissage du piano. Pour cela, pour le mme prix, vous pouvez avoir un clavier numrique avec un toucher lourd.
This is a great practice too even for accomplished players. It's very portable and it's easy to bring anywhere.

Fun to play. But did not meet my expectations.
I think this is great for learning. And I’ll admit I bring this to work and practice my scales and play things out of boredom.
I really wanted a keyboard to upload music on my laptop. I have an HP and when I tried to connect it it wouldn’t work. I’m not sure if it’s because I got the smaller version. But if you’re thinking of buying for this reason. Rethink.
The speakers are decent. But there no velocity to the notes. So it sounds weird at first.
I highly recommend this keyboard for people who just wanna dink around with a keyboard. The portability is unmatched. But if you’re wanting a more serious instrument I would look around.
It was delivered with one key off. Luckily, I managed to install it back. Everything else is ok. Thanks!!

Concept is amazing, but do not expect a concert piano/keyboard quality to come from this. I love how compact it is and that is a full sized keyboard, but it’s basically 4 mini toy keyboards fastened together. All the way down to the keyboard clicks. I just wanted to try it out to see but am returning i
MARAVILLOSO
Me parece maravilloso, por fin un teclado para poder llevar a cualquier lugar, siempre me ha parecido una faena no poder llevar mi instrumento por ah.
Suena bastante bien, y tiene muchsimos tipos de sonidos y para transportar en caso de que os cueste como a mi.
Una p. pasada! disfrutarlo!
Comodissima da trasportatare
Si studia praticamente ovunque, la pieghi e la apri in pochi gesti. Ingombro minimo
This is a great travel keyboard. Here are the pros and cons:
Pros-
Light weight
Full size keys
Reasonable sound
Cons-
You need to be careful not to break the hinge as it looks fragile.
No carrying case
I have a piano and a quality keyboard. I wanted a keyboard I could travel with. This product just fits my needs. I am a beginner and try to practice at least 30 minutes a day and am making good progress. If I am out of town, I wanted access to a keyboard for practice so I could continue my daily practicing. When I am at home I use my piano or more expensive keyboard.
In order to make the keyboard light and portable, only one small speaker was included. If you want better sound, plug-in some good earphones and it will improve the sound greatly.
Calidad-precio excelente.
Compr en Amazon Warehouse. Barato, bueno, bonito y excelente servicio. Es casi un juguete a primera vista, pero una muy buena compra al final. Sino necesitas teclas sensibles es fenomenal… incluso conectado a DAW.
Eine kleine Tastatur, einfach zum Mitnehmen und ben, mit normaler Tastenbreite!!!
Fr mich unwichtig:
Klang, Funktionen, Aussehen
Fr mich wichtig:
+ kleines Gert
+ einfach zum Mitnehmen
+ normale Tastenbreite (hat 16,5cm fr eine Oktave, also 7 weien Tasten)
+ Akkubetrieb
+ Kopfhreranschluss
Was hat es noch +/-
+ 4 Oktaven auf 2 zusammenklappbar
+ 2 eingebaute Kontroll-Lautsprecher (klingen natrlich sehr schwach)
+ Klang ber Kopfhrer ist je nach Kopfhrer entsprechend besser
+ 128 verschiedene Klnge (Voice) nicht besonders, aber zum ben mehr als ausreichend
+ 128 Rhythmen (Styles) nicht gerade von Yamaha aber ausreichend zum ben
+ 2 Oktaven rauf oder runter verschiebbar
+ Demolieder, Tempo, Metronom, Lautstrkeregelung ist ok, und Auswahltasten
+ USB-Stecker Versorgung und Aufladung (wie beim Handy)
Was mir nicht so gefllt:
– das vordere Gelenk zum Klappen
wirkt filigran und schwchlich, und muss mit mindestens drei Finger, davon 2 Fingerngel, bedient werden. Ich versuche behutsam damit umzugehen.
– die Tasten haben alle einen sehr geringen Hub, ca. 5mm, es geht aber trotzdem gut und leicht darauf zu spielen.
– Manche Tasten haben Materialspannungen und sind teilweise bis zu 1mm nach unten gebogen, strt aber erstaunlicher Weise auch nicht beim Spielen, sieht aber optisch wirklich nicht gut aus.
– Das Tastendesign hat mir anfangs gar nicht gefallen, man gewhnt sich aber daran.
Zu beachten:
Es muss auf einer geraden Flche aufliegen. Auf den Knien ohne guter Unterlage (Brett) wird es bald kaputt sein.
Man muss es gut behandeln, aber das muss man eine Geige auch.
Anfnger sollten sicher auf einer richtigen Tastatur lernen, aber fr zwischendurch ist es sicher auch fr Anfnger OK.
Zusammenfassung:
Unterm Strich ist es bis auf die Optik genau das, was ich gesucht habe, und es gibt nichts vergleichbares, alles Andere ist fr meine Ansprche nicht geeignet.
I’m a person with tiny hands who has always had an interest in learning piano but with no space for a regular keyboard, and I think I’m the ideal customer here haha. I needed a keyboard with midi output so I could game-ify learning and play around with some production software. My laptop is running Ubuntu and I got it working after semi-minor fiddling around. I don’t need all 88 keys (yet lol) so you can see in the picture I have the right side folded against my wall, which is convenient for my desk size anyway. I’ve always been interested in music theory overall and have wanted to try to make some music, but it’s so so tedious without a physical input. I’m gonna make a baroque-dubstep banger and tell everyone to check out my silly foldy piano. I can’t speak to the quality of the speaker on it because I’m using headphones through my laptop. I’m not subjecting anyone to off-rhythm scales out loud. I think $100 for an impulse buy on a hobby that may or may not stick is a little ridiculous of me, but I’m going to use that to force myself to do at least 100 hours of play time, so I think it’s worth it. No regrets. Also if anyone else is in the “I’ve gotta be kinda quiet” boat with me, it’s not super clacky or anything. The key hits are about the same volume as a computer’s keyboard.
Impressive
This is wonderful for travelling and has a convenient carry bag. Easy to assemble and the sound is surprisingly clear and has a good tone. Very happy!!! My family are thrilled!
Great to take with so you can practice.
Loved the foldability and the sturdiness. 88 keys as well. Sound was ok but much improved when we wire plugged a small speaker in. Judy great for a beginner to continue practice when way from home. I’d imagine good fun at a party to.
A really useful bit of kit.
This keyboard is really good. It has so many voices and rythms.
