Our take on the Kawai ES920

The ES920 is Kawai's top portable digital piano, built around the Responsive Hammer III action with triple sensors and let-off simulation. Its Harmonic Imaging XL engine offers 256-note polyphony and 38 sounds, and Bluetooth MIDI and Audio let it pair with apps and stream playback. At 17 kg with 2 x 20W through twin 8 x 12 cm speakers, it competes with the Yamaha P-525 and Roland FP-90X: lighter and simpler than the Roland, with a more piano-like action feel than many slab rivals. It suits gigging pianists and home players who want a serious action without a cabinet.

Questions and answers

Is the ES920 good for gigging?
Yes. At 17 kg it is one of the lighter 88-key pianos with a serious action, and Bluetooth MIDI helps with setlist and sound apps. Add a soft case and a folding stand for transport.
How does it compare with the Yamaha P-525?
Both are premium slabs with wooden-style actions. The ES920 adds Bluetooth Audio and an OLED display; the P-525 has a longer track record and a broader dealer network. Play both if you can, since action feel is personal.
Does it come with a stand and pedals?
The piano ships with a single sustain pedal. The matching stand and triple pedal unit are sold separately, so budget for them if you want a home setup.
Can I use headphones without disturbing others?
Yes. There are two headphone jacks, so a teacher and student can listen together, and the sound switches to headphones automatically when plugged in.
Does it work with piano learning apps?
Yes. Bluetooth MIDI connects to apps such as Piano Marvel and Flowkey, and Bluetooth Audio lets you play along with streamed tracks.
How many sounds does it have?
It has 38 sounds, led by several acoustic and electric pianos, plus strings, organs and harpsichord. Polyphony is 256 notes, so sustained pedaling does not cut notes off.
