FP-30x or ES120 for returning player?

I’m returning to piano after nearly 10 years. I played roughly 10 years from kindergarten til high school and now I have some time and want to get back to it.

I want to learn to play some pop songs, soundtracks from my favorite movies (John Williams, Hans Zimmer, etc) and more chill relaxing songs (Surfaces specifically). I also want to practice music theory again, but that has less to do with this choice I think.

From my research I know the Roland has the heavier action and a very good sound, but some people find it too heavy for faster songs. I’d prefer it for the price over the Kawai so I can buy a nice stand and triple pedal for it to look nice in my apartment, but will still spend the money for the Kawai if it will suit my needs more.

Sadly, I don’t have a store near me to try out the keyboards.

Thank you!
