Its price class holds 49 digital pianos between €830 and €2,825 (EU street prices) – the Korg E1 Air sits in the upper third there. The Korg G1B Air from the same brand sits around €450 below it. At a comparable price the comparison also lists Yamaha P-525 and Kawai CN-301.
Strengths & limits
In its favour
- 88 weighted keys with hammer action – the fingers learn the right force from day one
- Three pedals (damper, sostenuto, soft) are included
- Bluetooth for apps and a wireless connection
- USB-MIDI for learning apps, notation software and recording
Against it
- A piece of furniture with a fixed place – needs assembly, and moving it takes two people
