- Reviewed in Canada on August 24, 2020Verified PurchaseAmazing little travel keyboard. It's not a "real instrument" but rather something to bring on a bus or train. I can't look at screens in cars or vehicles because I get sick. This is a great little travel keyboard with good sounds. Not the best for input output though. Only has USB and headphone jack. Works as a midi controller too!
- Reviewed in Canada on March 13, 2020Verified PurchaseNice and portable with lot's of cool features... like touch response, phrase record, 42 voices, etc.
Also nice to have a head phone jack (jack can also be used to plug in external powered speakers).
Very happy with this purchase.

- Reviewed in Canada on May 7, 2020Verified PurchaseI wish the arpeggiator pattern did not reset to the default when switching to different voices and allow to continue playing previous pattern. Also, Yamaha should consider bundling this keyboard with some music production software like competitors do.
Overall, great little unit. Solid and has many options. Good keybed. My 8 yo kid is loving it. Definitely good for the price.

- Reviewed in Canada on July 4, 2025Verified PurchaseI was expecting full sized keys so this could be my travel keyboard so I can keep up my practice. But the keys are child size so would do me more harm that good. Looks like a good product otherwise. I have a full sized yamaha keyboard and am very happy with it. This would be good for a child, just does not suit my purposes.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 12, 2020Verified PurchaseIn general it is excellent keyboard. accurate amazing quality of sound. Good features.
Few things I wish it had more differently sounding instruments, like more sophisticated synths. Lacks proper electric guitar selections. strings aren't that diverse. some instruments sound too low compared to others. Base selection is too low volume. Great that you can connect to apples garage band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Customer Service from Chamberlain Music is good.
Verified PurchaseAfter three weeks the keyboard stopped working. I contacted the seller, Chamberlain music and they replaced it straight away with a new keyboard. No problems since.

5.0 out of 5 stars muy entretenido para tocar, no es solo para niños
Verified Purchaselo mejor: por el tamaño es perfecto para el escritorio como input para el DAW, pero también es portátil y de pilas para trabajar ideas en cualquier lugar. No lo considero un instrumento infantil.
El arpegiador es increíble: tiene muchos arpegios que además son congruentes con el programa seleccionado, por lo que los arpegios para piano son armónicos, y los de batería pues son patrones de batería bastante reales. Puedes dejar sonando un arpegio automático con un instrumento y cambiar a otro instrumento para hacer la melodía encima. Ya que tiene una grabadora (de memoria algo limitada, sin overdub), pero puedes dejar reproduciendo en loop 2 capas y tocar encima otras dos capas, por lo que se pueden ejecutar hasta 4 instrumentos: inicias un arpegio con bateria, cambias a bajo, y grabas un loop de esas 2 cosas. después reproduces el loop y pones un arpegio para la armonía y puedes dejarlo tocando y cambiar a otro instrumento para la melodía.
También es muy intuitivo: mi hija le agarró la onda el primer dia.
Además ya conectado al DAW de una pc usando el midi usb, las posibilidades se multiplican ! ya que los arpegios los puedes enviar para capturar el midi en el piano roll, y separar por canales los instrumentos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect travel keyboard!
Verified PurchaseI needed a small keyboard for my kids to practice piano during our vacation, the keyboard we have is a standard one (88 keys). I ordered this mini keyboard and I’m very pleased with it. It has everything for practice on the go, the size is perfect, It’s battery operated and the sound is pretty good; they keys response is amazing. Keep in mind the size of the keys are smaller. I agree with one of the reviews about when you take it out of the box it gives you the feeling of a toy, it’s smaller than I thought, lighter and it looks fragile, but once you try it, play it, you can tell it’s not a toy! it worth every penny. It’s fragile, so you will need a storage case for it. I ordered the LTGEM EVA Hard Storage Case for Alesis V25 | 25 Key USB MIDI Keyboard Controller - Travel Protective Carrying Bag (outer dimensions 22.2" L – 9" W – 3" H.) and it fits like a glove. I’m attaching pictures.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice "not a main usage" keyboard
Verified PurchaseHas MIDI !!! Cannot stress how rare it is at this price range on a *keyboard*
Small enough and light enough for keeping in front of PC, on the lap in bed or wherever I feel like catching 15 mins of piano/keyboard learning.
Keys are just over a cm wide, so yeah feels cramped as compared to proper full size keys on the larger keyboards.
This is not for a beginner or someone looking for their 1st keyboard. There are cheaper or better choices for those!
