With an unknown launch date, this seems to be a very poor version of the Casio SK-1. Documentation is sparse, and online reviews seem to be unfavourable in general.
The SK-10 is a reduced function version of the SK-1, so it has many of the same abilities including 1.4s of 8-bit PCM sampling (one sample only), 32 mini keys, 13 envelopes, portamento, vibrato, five PCM tones, 11 drum patterns, three synth tones. It also has basic step and chord programming on board.
It’s difficult to get detailed information on this keyboard except to see that those who rate the SK-1 think this is a very poor imitation, and not worth bothering with.
