Size

Keyboards and synthesizers come in different sizes for keys. These include "mini" keys, numerous "slim" keys and full-size keys. Each features a distinct shape and feel, but what's important is the complete package, not just the number of keys and whether they are mini or full size.

Casio SA51, for instance, has 100 sounds and 50 rhythms however it's smaller than the other models. It's also easy to transport and is a great instrument to practice with. The MicroKorg XL also has smaller arrows, but a larger space, right-shift and enter buttons. So it is dependent on what you require from your keyboard and how much portability is essential.
