Korg - Liano L1 - Portable Digital Piano with Premium Soft-Touch Keyboard - Black

I researched electronic pianos thoroughly and chose this "Liano" from Korg as the best combination of features, quality, and price -- for what I required. Just starting to learn to play piano for the first time, this is what I like about the "Liano". -- full size 88 keys with weighted action (to resemble real piano). (professional players may say it is not perfect, but it is pretty good) -- Headphone socket so practice does not disturb others (even in same room) -- Small and light enough to be easily moved or hidden away when not in use. -- Mains or battery operated (I am looking forward to using it in the garden in summer) -- Good piano sound. It can be switched to choice of different piano types, including harpsichord, organ, etc. But I only use the piano. And it does sound like a piano. -- Good price. Cheaper than all rivals (that may offer extra features I don't need) -- Connectivity to piano teaching Apps, eg on iPad. This lets me have lessons from A.I. teachers at any time. In summary, I love this "Liano". If you are buying this or any similar product, I suggest you also consider getting: -- foldable piano stand of adjustable height -- piano stool, adjustable height -- headphones (to practice in silence) -- dust cover for keyboard when not in use.

You'd be surprised how quickly, even as a person used to weighted keys, how easy it is to adjust to the unweighted keybed. The reverb is barely detectable so get a cheap behringer reverb pedal to give the pianos & organs extra. Add a behringer multi FX pedal & pretty soon your Liano with its 8 poxy sounds becomes kind of a synth all of its own. So cheap it would be rude not to.

It has a small headphone jack so no adapter needed (nice), it has USB-B port which I had no trouble connecting to my mobile with a USB-A to B lead and a USB OTG adapter (A to C) so I could get the included Skoove app playing through the keyboard speakers instead of the mobile speakers. This worked fine on my Pixel 6, just didn't work on Samsung S20 FE phone where I couldn't hear the audio. If I figure out why I'll update this. That was slightly annoying, but you can still use a mobile with the built-in Mic. Another nice thing about the Skoove app is that they allow you to share the account and login to multiple devices and the progress is kept locally so you can all be at different levels if you want the whole family learning. Just a shame there is no PC option, only iOS and Android. The sound on this is pretty good (to my ears which are not the best), there are holes at the back and a cavity inside the keyboard to make the sound resonate a bit more, it's much better than the small speakers on the top would have you believe. The keys feel nice, the KB is not too heavy, I just need to find some rubber strips because the criss-cross stand we bought only has rubber on the front and back, and this keyboard isn't very deep, so it rests on the rubber at the edge of the stand and the back of the keyboard just rests on the metal of the stand. Hasn't moved around too much though. I usually find something wrong with things I buy, but I came up short here. Recommended.

light, great sound, everything is a plus

Super quality and good sound

Full size keyboard with excellent sound options. Comparative light weight. Keys can be adjusted for weight.

I’m an experienced musician and wanted to take up piano. This is my first electric keyboard and it does not disappoint! Brilliant and genuine grand piano sound and touch sensitive keys. So happy I bought this and will Keep it forever.

Arrived quickly through the box had seen some action. First impressions were good. Not much to it, but good basic sounds. No CDs, no manual in the box - all downloads for the software/extras. Far enough on a cheap package. So, I went to check the downloadable 'apps' listed on the piece of card in with the music stand, to find that only the piano lesson 'trial' was PC/Windows compatable. Everything else 'iphone', 'ipad' 'iOS'. No use to me as 'iDon'tHaveOne'. That's a big fat minus point Korg, and should be mentioned. Then for some reason I decided to play down all the keys and... oh dear. A dead key (see video). So, not really too impressed. So back it went, and I waved goodbye as Hermes (Evri) dragged the box down the drive to the van. Interesting that Amazon don't pick up their own returns I thought. Now waiting for my refund. Two stars, as if you are a beginner (and all your keys work) it's a cheap way to see if you want to learn or not. For anyone else it's probably not a good option (unless you use Apple).

I’m having fun with this cute keyboard. Getting used to non weighted keys was an adjustment but I’m getting it. I’ve always been a fan of Korg. Overall great product for price point.

I purchased it in 28k Never played real acoustic piano But this keyboard is what you can get best in the price

Ich habe das Korg Liano über Amazon Rückläufer bestellt. Ein paar schwarze Kratzer an den Tasten ließen sich problemlos wegpolieren. Das Korg hat keinen Hammermechanismus und wiegt von daher wesentlich weniger. Es lässt sich eben auch in der Wohnung leicht umstellen und man kann es auch mitnehmen. Der Klang und der Anschlag sind gut. Es lassen sich verschiedene Klangarten einstellen. Auch lässt es sich mit Batterien betreiben. Ein Fusspedal ist auch dabei und ein Gutschein für Skoove, der Klavierlern App. Rundherum ein guter Kompromiss für Anfänger. Für Profis gibt es sicherlich Bessere.

Excelente producto, venía muy bien cuidado. Cumplió prácticamente al 100% con mis expectativas.

It's like right after you have your piano tuned by a professional piano tuner. But, you have to wear the quality headphone like mine, Sennheiser HD569. The sound of Korg is simply 'Supreme!' I never heard such a beautiful sound from a digital piano. I would have preferred the more weighted keys, but, because of the beautiful sound, everything else is just a spec of dust.
