Our Take
The GO:PIANO88 fills a unique role in Roland's piano range.
Many entry-level digital pianos offer 88 keys but are heavy furniture-style instruments that stay in one room forever. Others are portable but only provide 61 or 76 keys, limiting long-term learning.
The GO:PIANO88 strikes an excellent balance. It gives beginners access to a full-sized keyboard while remaining light enough to move easily around the home. For students, apartment-dwellers, holiday house dwellers, or anyone short on space, it's one of the most practical ways to start learning piano.
The Bluetooth functionality is also a major advantage, and less common at this price point. Being able to stream lessons, play along with songs and connect to apps makes practice more engaging, particularly for younger players.
