Clavinova 625 or YDP-143 Arius?

I have tried out the YDP-143 Arius and liked it. I didn't like the feel of the fake ivory keys on the YDP-163 Arius.

Does the Clavinova 625 have similar keys as the YDP-163 Arius?

if anyone here knows?

Many thanks!!!!

I wasn't keen on either makes and bought a Kawaii stage piano instead. Much nicer to play, very close to the real thing. I also have a Yamaha U3 and used to play a friend's Steinway daily, so I'd like to think I have decent experiencefor comparison.

My Kawaii is more expensive though but IMO very much worth it.

Thank you ISeeTheLight, what model Kawaii stage piano do you have or is there just the one?

I have an MP10, new model is MP11. You'd need to find somewhere to try it, I bought mine in a shop in Denmark Street when I lived in London

It's more expensive. Another option is Casio - pianist friend has one as a spare (he also has 2 Steinway's...) and says it's very good for the price.

We bought the Yamaha p45 about a month ago and (at least for now) it ticks all the boxes. The p115 is supposed to be better, but I'm just returning to playing and everyone else is a beginner.
