yamaha or casio keyboard?

ok so i really want to learn to play piano/keyboard and i want to buy a cheap but very good one. im 14 so i dont want a little kid’s one and i am also i very quick learner and i dont want a keyboard that i will “grow out” of fast so i’ve seen the yamaha ypt-210 keyboard and i’ve also seen the casio 61-Key Portable Keyboard but i dont know which one is better. yamaha is obviously the better brand but this casio seems like basically the same thing only like $20 cheaper

so what im asking is which one do you prefer and what are your experiences with either of these?

if you know of another keyboard that is just as good but roughly the same price please tell me too.

*thanks*

Which is better for a beginner digital piano, Casio or Yamaha?

I’m gonna be buying a first piano as I’m learning on a cheap kids keyboard at the moment. I was thinking of either the Casio CDP-200 or Yamaha P85, my budget is limited to around $1000 AUD. I won’t be playing any classical music, not soon anyway. Which is more suitable, Casios or Yamahas for beginners?

Thanks
Sadly, shops around here sell these pianos for ~$1000, I think you can’t really get any better for this price where I live. A real piano here would cost a fortune.
Also, portability isn’t a factor as I won’t be moving it.

can i play the same songs on a electric keyboard that i can play on the piano?

i have an electric keyboard by yamaha. i can’t find any websites to teach me songs that aren’t little kid songs. is there any way that i can play the same songs on the keyboard that you do on a piano? if not, do you have any links that can teach you how to play some songs on the keyboard? thanks.
