Where it sits
Its price class holds 56 digital pianos between €435 and €1,650 (EU street prices) – the Yamaha Arius YDP-S35 sits in the middle there. At a comparable price the comparison also lists Korg C1 Air and Casio PX-S5000.
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
- USB-MIDI for learning apps, notation software and recording
- Built-in speakers – ready to play without extra gear
Against it
- No Bluetooth – learning apps only work by cable
- A piece of furniture with a fixed place – needs assembly, and moving it takes two people
- Discontinued model – the successor is the Yamaha YDP-S36
