From the manufacturer

Enjoyment That Stays With You
The luxurious tone and expressive ease of playing stays true to the basics of a real piano. It almost plays itself, releasing the sound and music you have within. Start your day with music and a huge smile on your face—the ARIUS piano makes you want to play more and more.
Beautiful, Powerful Sound Sampled From The Acclaimed Yamaha CFX Concert Piano Grand Piano
The YDP-165 features a piano Voice sampled from Yamaha’s flagship CFX concert grand piano—a renowned piano that delivers sparkling highs and a powerful resonant bass combined in a superbly expressive sound.
The YDP-165 has the same detailed sound—from the lower keys to the higher keys—full of clarity and rich in colorful harmonic content. It gives you extraordinary expressive power and nuance, that authentically responds in your daily practice as well as your most emotion-filled performances.
Authentic Acoustic Piano Playability And Half-Damper Pedal Control
With an 88-key piano action, the GH3 (Graded Hammer 3) keyboard reproduces the touch of an acoustic piano, from a naturally heavy feel in the lower key to a lighter touch in the upper octaves. The GH3 keyboard provides a grand piano-style response and feel, allowing rapid note repetition and authentic expressive control. Moreover, there’s a half-damper feature that authentically replicates the damper action on a grand piano, providing rich expressive variation.
Harmonic Resonance Like That Of A Grand Piano - Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM LITE)
One of the allures of the grand piano is the sympathetic resonance created by the vibration of the entire instrument. The YDP-165 elaborately reproduces this rich sympathetic resonance through a groundbreaking technology called Virtual Resonance Modeling Lite (VRM Lite). VRM Lite creates a richly varied sound by simulating the complex sympathetic tones created when the vibrations of the strings are propagated to the soundboard and other strings, corresponding to the timing and intensity of key playing and pedaling.
Rich, Powerful Sound Provided By The Tone Escapement Construction
The YDP-165 uses a newly developed tone escapement construction on the back of the cabinet that emanates sound from inside the piano. This allows you to experience the natural sound radiation and three-dimensional resonance like that of an acoustic piano.
Rich Variety Of Built-In Songs And Intuitive Operation with Smart Pianist App
Naturally, the YDP-165 has an authentic grand piano sound, but it also features various other built-in instrument sounds, for a total of 10 Voices—including electric piano, organ, vibraphone, and strings.
The YDP-165 also has 353 built-in songs, including 50 famous classical songs, and 303 comprehensive practice exercises from famous methods, such as Beyer, Burgmüller, Czerny, and Hanon. The instrument is also compatible with Yamaha's free Smart Pianist app—simply download the app to your smart device and connect it to the instrument*.
With the Smart Pianist app, you can easily operate the various Voice functions of the instrument and use it to call up scores of the built-in songs. It also features a comprehensive Piano Room function for changing the tonal quality and resonance settings of the piano sound.
* A cable connection is required. Make sure to purchase the correct cable for your smart device.
Features For Greater Listening Comfort When Using Headphones
The YDP-165 employs new technology that corrects the sound balance optimally according to the volume you set—giving you an exceptionally natural sound that’s easy to listen to and is gentle on the ears, even when playing for a long time.
It also has Stereophonic Optimizer effect that lets you enjoy the natural, spacious sound you experience sitting in front of an acoustic grand piano, even when wearing headphones.
Stylish Design Matches Your Room Interior
While based primarily on straight lines, it has a stylish design that incorporates elegant curves that are typical of a grand piano. Moreover, you can choose from a variety of color variations the one you like to suit your interior and personal taste.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!
Verified PurchaseI was in the market for a digital piano to supplement my 108 year old upright (that has seen better days). My main needs were something smaller that still offered a full 88 keys, and getting as close to a real piano in feel and sound as I could with my budget. I looked at several different options based on what I needed but I kept coming back to the ydp-165. Delivery was a little longer than scheduled originally, though at the time 鶹 did not personally ship/sell the item so it was no problem waiting an extra day! I will say the box with everything in it coming off the truck is about 140 pounds, so I’d recommend at least one other person to help if you decide to order. The instructions for putting it together are printed right on the box (I found watching a couple videos on YouTube left no need for written instructions, it’s really simple!). Once we got it put together I was surprised at how sturdy it was! With the pedal support(?) screwed down to rest on the floor it can handle a wide variety of dynamic range without feeling shaky or bad quality. If you are considering the 165 I can highly recommend! The weighted keys are Yamaha’s new-ish GH3 action in action lol, and although it is not and I doubt ever will be EXACTLY the same as a “real” piano,I think they got impressively close. As a classically trained musician I had very high expectations, in the band world at least Yamaha has always offered quality instruments at a great price for every budget! I knew I (most likely) could not go wrong with this purchase. This piano would be great for beginners, younger students/older students, to even professional musicians. If you are between the 145/165 it is well worth the extra cost.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE!!!
Verified PurchaseI am a music teacher and church pianist. I had an upright acoustic piano but wanted to downsize to something digital. I did a lot of research on a lot of makes/models and got this one. I am SO GLAD I did. I absolutely love all its features! It sounds GREAT. Highly worth the money. And it was at my house the very next day after I ordered it. I LOVE my Yamaha YDP!!!!!
