Portable And Playable: New Yamaha PSR-E323 And PSR-E223
With the new PSR-E323 and PSR-E223, Yamaha's technical innovation, design quality and worldwide distribution have led to the addition of powerful specifications and features to its entry-level products. Though perfect for the beginner, in part because the models feature Yamaha Education Suite capabilities, these keyboards provide plenty of room for the novice player to grow.
