9:16 I was not expecting it to sound like an Amazon basics keyboard they had me in the first half ngl

[Nashness]

Glorious at it again. $500 dollars and it looks and sounds like it was bought at a Toys R Us.

[iamFreddyP_]

$500 for that?... i like the customization but quality seems to suffer.

[fishijoe]

9:26 I can't believe how bad this sounds especially for 500$

[AbdurRahman-opom]

this is the worst sounding keyboard for $500!

[jasonjennings]

They had YEARS to come up with a new keyboard. This was their chance. Why ruin any hopes of getting customers to return with a ridiculous, I mean RIDICULOUS price point? WTF are they thinking?

[PowGetRekt]

For those wondering, the cheapest HE option is a plastic 60% wired prebuilt option for $180.

[nunoespinha]

Going through the comments of the sound test made me think people were exaggerating but after listening....HOLY SHIT THAT SOUNDS LIKE CRAP 15$ KEYBOARD

[iDrowsyy]

price is $200 for a custom barebones... nuts

[statixfear]

Glorious went all-in with the marketing and the "customization" options. However, I've already seen quite a few videos and soundtests of this keyboard and I honestly cannot recommend anyone get this if they expect it to sound good out-of-the-box. Not sure if I've seen other videos fully mod their GMMK 3 to make it sound better... but what I can tell you is that there are so many other alternatives out there for around or even cheaper than this price point that sound better, even stock.

I got my GMMK 3 HE (non PRO version, which means I have plastic base instead of metal) for 159$ USD.

I know some people would argue it's a rip off for the characterics it has but tbh I don't see why. This keyboard has everything a PC gamer would need in a keyboard: 8K Hz, Hall Effect (Rapid trigger), every single part of the keyboard is customizable with no limitations like the rest of keyboards, Hotswappable with both MX Mechanical & Magnetic switches, good quality keycaps (PBT Doubleshot). I wish you good luck finding a keyboard with ALL of these options and customization; they either have one or another but not all of these together.

Now, the sound of his keyboard in the video I agree is horrible, but mine came with the Glorious Fox HE Lubed switches and it sounds good. So idk maybe he got ripped off on his keyboard, but you guys can find a good price like I did and I would really recommend this kb.

The original GMMK Pro really got me into the hobby, trying to make it flex more and sound better because I really liked it. Adding the Flex kit last year I still use it from time to time even today. However typing on a QK75n with Nixies and GMK Honor Dark which would total about $400, I just can't see the paying the price for this. I also just wrote a review for a $75 HE keyboard, it was plastic but worked great once they updated the software and sounded better than this IMHO. I would love a chance to review one of these to prove myself wrong but just reviewing for a retailer at the moment. Maybe I'll grab a barebone wired. It's definitely nice to see some real gasket performance :) Great review as always!

For the stabs being loud, I guess Glorious wanted to avoid the scandal of the first GMMK Pro : they had pads under their "GOAT Stabs" but since they ended over-lubing them, the pad got sticky and the keys had trouble goign back up and unstick from the pad. I think they wanted to avoif that, and removed the pad completely.

Could be wrong, but I remember replacing tham with a standed band-aid mod in mine back in the day to fix the keys sticking to the PCB and not going back up

[Cypher]

Half the price of a top-end phone for a glorious keyboard? What are they smokin over there

[TIBS]

Keydous had dual HE and contact-based switch compatible boards available in their NJ98-CP for a while now, at least since late last year. You should totally check that one out, it's genuinely really classy, and A LOT CHEAPER at around 100USD.

I just built mine online during Black Friday deals…went all whit everything with Lynx silent switch non Hall effects because I heard it doesn’t sound as good as regular Mx…I got it for 120$ discount for Black Friday. I am excited, the all white is going to match my all white aesthetic

[little_fluffy_clouds]

I own two of the original GMMK Pros in different colours, both heavily modded to look and sound fantastic. I’d like to thank Glorious for allowing me to skip their newer products by making them garbage in comparison

[Lord_Mad_Dog]

they include the option to use mechanical swithces in the same pcb as hall effect, but didnt make their he switches have legs? thats a really weird choice because gateron jades and lekker switches have legs to mount them to the pcb

[Darkwarwulf]

At 13:56 it shows the custom keys you can set. However, I don’t see a key for “Home”. Did they forget to add it to the software? They have the “Home” key in the older version of the GMMK software, but I don’t see it in this new version of their software.

are you looking forward to the wooting 80he? i sure am and I LOVE how transparent they are with communicating with the community!
