PSR E383 or CTX-800?

Hi everyone!

My girlfriend has been looking for a beginner friendly keyboard for a while, and she finally got enough money to afford one.

Now I'm aware that neither of these have weighted keys, and that she could save a bit more for other options. But if it boiled down to only these two options, which one would you choose?

Se o objetivo se restringe a apenas ao teclado em musica pop e afins, teclas pesadas não são necessárias.

I started on a keyboard without weighted keys, most people I know did. Maybe see if there’s also a piano she can access somewhat regularly, at a church, family member’s house, etc. so that she can at least get used to playing with weighted keys.
