Here's the problem people have with this keyboard...

Earlier Vinyls, 14.06.2020

You will read it in a lot of reviews: the PSS-A50 is trying so hard to punch above its weight it ends up disappointing.

Granted: Yamaha was full of good intentions with this keyboard but did have to make a few compromises.

Now look at it from the other angle: this is a below 100€ keyboard. For a fraction of the price of a Reface, you notably get:
the same keys than the Reface series with velocity sensors,
a compact but playable format,
tons of voices + some effects (pitch, modulation, etc.),
100+ 'arpeggios' (loops you can play over)
a basic but fun one track recorder
a MIDI connection to use it as a master keyboard,
and a lot more...

So yes, the only speaker doesn't sound great,
yes, the usability of some functions is questionable,
and yes, "overall it could have been better".

However at that level of price, I challenge you to find any competitive keyboard that does better.

Just take the time to learn how to make the most out of it.
Definitely having a ton of fun with mine x Garageband.
Highly recommended as a travelmate or family mini-synth.

Amazing keyboard for the price

IngvarJackal, 07.10.2020

The sounds are very good, the keybed is also very good and comparable to Reface series.
Arpeggios are very fun and good in this keyboard.
Arpeggio hold button is a little annoying to hold in some playstyles, the looper has no quantization (so it requires a good precision to press), the output and speaker are noisy.
I use this keyboard as a cheap and light supplementary instrument to play basslines and pads, and I'm totally satisfied with it.

The best midi keyboard with its own sound

Koronator, 19.02.2021

Best choice if you are looking for a midi keyboard with small keys. It is ahead of all competitors in terms of price and quality. The big plus is that there is a speaker, own sounds, an arpeggiator, the ability to work and sketch out arrangements directly on the synthesizer. Best buy for the money.

Not perfect, but very handy and fun to use

Cripes, 27.03.2020

Compact and light with 37 keys, runs on 4xAA batteries or USB power. Built-in speaker. Small selection of voices can seem a little bland. Arpeggiator is a great feature which takes time to master.Basic short phrase recorder is also very handy for sketching ideas. Doubles as a MIDI keyboard so great for travellers. No sustain pedal socket and only a combined headphones/output socket, which can be a little hissy. Everything involves compromise but Yamaha have steered a sensible course with this mini keyboard. Recommended.
