Certainly, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I can't say I like the look of either instrument...it's the blue color that takes away from it most of all.
Funny, 'cause Korg were sorta the leader with the "silver sleek" look several years ago, but sadly, the designers must have wanted a "new" look....unfortunately, I think it gives these keyboards a more toy-like look...almost cartoonish...the PA500 a bit more so.
I hope keyboard companies return to black finish...it always looked rich and professional.
