Where it sits
Its price class holds 54 digital pianos between €570 and €2,150 (EU street prices) – the Yamaha Arius YDP-165 sits in the middle there. At a comparable price the comparison also lists Roland FP-60X and Roland F-107.
Strengths & limits
In its favour
- GH3 action with escapement simulation – close to an acoustic piano
- 40-watt speakers fill the room
- Three pedals, classic piano look
Against it
- For LEARNING, the surcharge over the YDP-145 adds little – it adds sound and furniture
- Fixed build, ~42 kg
- Being phased out (2026) – successor: Yamaha YDP-166
