Size

There are a number of different key sizes found on synths and keyboards. There are "mini" and "slim" key sizes and full-size keys. Each of these keys has a unique shape and feel. But what's crucial is the whole package not just how many there are or if they're full size or miniature.

For example, there is the Casio SA 51, which has 100 sounds and 50 rhythms yet is smaller than other models. It's also portable and is a great instrument to practice with. In the same way, the MicroKorg XL has smaller arrow keys but larger space, enter and right shift buttons. It depends on what you need and how important portability is to you.
