Got the new version of the Folding Piano 88 about a month ago with touch-sensitive keys but...
There are still shortcomings. The biggest are the small size keys. It's not easy to move to a keyboard or piano with regular size keys learning a song on the Folding 88. The keys that have very little depth means it's hard to control the loudness. When you play chords especially there is not a lot of room for your fingers to go down slowly to get a soft sound. It's easier to play soft & loud when doing single notes than intervals & chords. Look under the bottom of the blue box you see "THIS IS NOT A TOY". On the other hand don't think anybody would use it for professional performances either.
The keys are more solid. When playing the plastic noise is hardly noticeable. For travelling this is still the smallest keyboard found. There is a 49 version of the keyboard. a keyboard that is already very compact and under $200, don't know why people would get the 49 instead of the 88.
Found a listing on Amazon for the Carry-on Folding Piano 88:

Colour White
Number of keys 49

In 2 places you see "Professional". Anybody who tried the keyboard would think this must be a joke. The ad is for the 49 key version, not the 88.
