but I will say at least so far the pad have the same feel and quality as Akai's LPD 8 Akai Professional LPD8 Ultra-Portable USB Pad Controller for Laptops, they are fairly thick for mini pads and have a nice bouncy feel to them, not like those nightmare cheap pads they put on the earlier MPD models Akai Professional MPD32 USB/Midi MPC Pad Controllerl.

The Akai MPK mini Mark two is a sufficient little midi controller great for use on the go

Also an important thing to note is that the controller has a plastic smell out of the box that is strikingly similar (in my opinion) to lighter fluid

All I can say is that for $100, I have not come across a better portable midi controller

Excellent and affordable MIDI controller.

The lack of weighted keys and a somewhat rigid uni-controller are the only reason I deduct a star, but otherwise it's very well done.

One of the best MIDI controllers I have used

Overall, this is the nicest portable MIDI controller I've found.

Worked well until the C, D and A keys on the lower octave all stopped working across all platforms
