Touch
Realistic touch & motion: Responsive Hammer Compact keyboard action
The KDP75's Responsive Hammer Compact (RHC) keyboard action has been developed to represent the distinctive touch of an acoustic grand piano. Based on the highly-regarded RH keyboard action design, its spring-less mechanism and sturdy construction delivers consistent upward and downward motion, while improved cushioning material helps to reduce keyboard noise, resulting in a smooth, natural, and highly authentic piano playing experience.
Acoustic piano key weighting
Just as acoustic pianos utilise heavier bass hammers and lighter treble hammers, the RHC keyboard action also employs different hammer weights, appropriately graded for each playing range.
Such details provide greater stability during fortissimo passages, while preserving delicate pianissimo control, to satisfy the demands of even the most discerning pianist.

Not quite as good electronically as the pxs3000 $649 deal also going on right now. The 3000 has way better sound samples (rom).
Action is quite similar to the 3000, they're both light touch actions.
The Korg alternative lp380 is $800 w/ a much heavier action, (comes down to preference). Speaker quality, the Korg is still very much ahead. Just keep in mind, if you guys plug in your own speakers and subs, it's a different comparison.

The concept of "real feeling" is a marketing ploy, these are all simplified action mechanisms with thousands of parts less than an acoustic piano, it's not going to feel like an acoustic piano. The important part is they Works Well, and have significantly better precision and stability compared to acoustic piano actions <more parts, more wood = instability, imprecision>
Keep in mind, the OLD midi version, midi has optical galvanic isolation, so in some use cases it's actually better than USB.
on USB you can also buy a filter which sort of does the same thing, but it's inductor based not optical.
