Hello everyone,
I wanted some advice for purchasing a digital piano. My budget is about 500 euros (I know it's little, but there's a crisis).
I am not interested in sounds, effects, or similar things. I would just like it to be as close as possible to an acoustic piano, both from a sound and keyboard perspective (I know it's difficult, especially given my budget).
On the web I found these:
Yamaha P105
Yamaha p35
Korg sp170s
What do you think?
Thank you all in advance,

Hi arm. I opted for the P105. The action feels identical to that of the P35, but I find the sound to be decidedly better.
A world apart from the old P60s.
I don't know the Korgs.
In my opinion, a P105 will be perfectly fine for you. Don't expect double escapement or "world-class" dynamics. For me, since I do this professionally now (and given the genre of music I play), it is more than sufficient.
Compared to the action of an EXCELLENT 131cm Yamaha upright, you can exploit the pianissimo a bit more.
Compared to the action of a Yamaha C1 or G1, I find it significantly lighter.
You will notice this during fast passages. For example, Chopin studies MUST be played on a Coda; you can't ALWAYS prepare them for me on the Yamaha P105.
But if you limit yourself to two or three little things for pleasure and an "Anema e core" every now and then, it is more than enough.
In fact,
it has a great sound with its native speakers for being a 500 euro keyboard.
