Where it sits
Its price class holds 45 digital pianos between €940 and €3,750 (EU street prices) – the Yamaha CLP-835 sits in the middle there. The Yamaha P-525 from the same brand sits around €275 below it – but with wooden keys. At a comparable price the comparison also lists Roland FP-90X and Casio AP-750.
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
