Serious hardware for serious keyboard enthusiasts
I have used mechanical boards for a few years now for the better gaming experience as well as the improved typing experience for working. I’ve always bought full size keyboards since that’s what I’m used to, and I have plenty of desk space. Glorious Gaming keyboards can be purchased on their site with complete customization for you, this board is a “prebuilt”, which means it’s the same components, but Glorious has chosen this combination to create a competitive board you can grab right off the shelf. Once you have the GMMK 3 PRO, you can get a good feel of how this one treats you, and sometime in the future, go full custom, but knowing exactly what you liked and what you might wish was more personal from the prebuilt. Keyboards are getting the attention they deserve and Glorious is in the forefront of the charge. This model is all pre-built, but the components and customization potential are all right here. You can mix and match the types of keyswitches, so you can have tactiles on your WASD and linears elsewhere, etc. Serious customization is readily available in custom colors and materials for cases, different internals including damping options, keyplate options, and of course nearly limitless options for keycaps. This allows you to change how your keys sound, feel, and look. You can not use HE switches on this board, though. I tried. If you would like to use Hall Effect (magnetic/adjustable actuation) switches, you’ll need one of the models with “HE” in the name. Those models will take the newer HE switches as well as the mechanical type the GMMK 3 PRO and most other boards can use. Opening the box, the lid exhorts you to first “Ascend”, then to “Stay Glorious”. No instructions were included for these two functions which I must admit I am not familiar with, so I’m afraid I can’t comment on those. When you take this keyboard out of the box, you can tell just by feeling the weight and materials, this a serious piece of hardware. It feels special, like it should. Setup in a physical sense was a breeze, you plug the included cable into the keyboard, then plug it into your computer. Like any other keyboard. There are a couple of toggles on the back flanking the USB-C port on both sides. While poorly marked, they are explained in the online documentation as a Windows/Mac switch on one side of the USB port, while the other side has a three-position slider to allow you to switch profiles saved on the board without messing around with software. I have yet to encounter another modern keyboard with a feature like this, nice. The software: Glorious CORE 2.1 is functional and appears to work at each task I’ve used it for. According to someone I know with a Glorious keyboard, this is a major milestone in the Glorious CORE software, so kudos there. I am an end user who got a really nice keyboard with ugly, unintuitive software. It has less charm and perhaps a less intuitive user interface than industrial motor control software I’ve used. It works, it’s ugly throwaway cross platform drivel, basically feels like a pretty Java app, a real let down. The LEDs are dim through the keys, even at 100%, this lighting is dim, If you like to see more light, grab a set of pudding keycaps or perhaps some with larger lettering so more light shines through. The included cable is a generic nylon jacketed zig zag you’d get in any mediocre accessory, it’s not pleasant in any way, so I consider it an unnecessary compromise that makes the out of box experience worse. It’s disappointing. When I first started using the board, I felt like I was reaching up to the keys without a wrist rest even though the actual height of the keys themselves is (as far as I can tell) identical to my previous keyboard. The sides flash when you have caps lock on, which is pretty cool until you notice there is no light change on the Caps key itself…. If you have big hands and are going to be doing a lot of typing, this may not be your best solution, it feels slightly cramped. I can only measure a ~5mm difference in width from my main keyboard, but I guess that matters. This keyboard sits right where I put it on the desk while I’m gaming. I don’t have to pull it back to my left hand while I’m in the middle of a match, much better than my last few boards. It even stays put on my slick desk mat thanks to the grippy feet and hefty mass. The action and consistency of the “Fox” (red linear) switches is excellent, precise and solid. I immediately noticed a difference in FPS games, the precision in the board translates to the screen and you can feel the difference. Thanks to the incredible damping, the racket of my gaming has fallen drastically, which is nothing but good. I’m still terrible, but at least I’m quiet about it. I think I qualify as a “gamer”, perhaps not in skill, but surely in hours logged… and as a gamer, I often like to listen to my music or podcasts while I’m gaming. I like having a play/pause button, volume control, and quick mute at the ready. I don’t think this makes me unique. I like the rotary volume knob (metal and grippy, so nice!), and I like that clicking the knob mutes my audio by default. I did not know the little badge bar next to the knob is just a logo plate with a light on it even though it looks like a button. So, the play/pause key is (without changing keybinds) Fn-F7. Two key combo to play/pause. The way I figured this out required a flashlight. The secondary F-key functions are marked with faint paint on the vertical front faces of the keycaps. keys that are invisible without direct light shining on the board. Of course, you can memorize these locations, but this is a compromise that was unnecessary and is a glaring omission in my opinion. Looking at the bottom of the keycaps shows the translucent plastic that carries light is continuous underneath, so it was a choice to not have the secondary functions shine through. There are also secondary functions for lighting, for which some of the silk-screened icons are intuitive and others are just mysterious. Which is why---- My biggest issue with this board is the keycaps. I would even call them a disappointment. I understand it’s all about customization, and many of us are going to eventually get custom keycaps to suit our preferences, but these sure seem to be made to make you WANT to get some other set. The Enter key doesn’t say Enter or Return or even the down and right arrow, nope, it says “ASCEND”. Tacky. Cynical. Ew. I don’t ever want to be marketed to by my enter key. Ever. It’s a keyboard, not a lifestyle. This would be a non-issue if they gave me a standard return key in the box… The markings on the keys are non-standard to the point of being odd, instead of the 100 year old convention of putting the key markings one above the other (indicating a “shift”), they have the markings crammed together horizontally, not so great for hunting down that one punctuation key you never remember the location of. The keys have no lighting for secondary F-key functions, either direct from shine-through, or indirect from light coming up from under. So, gaming in the dark, you better have those Fn binds memorized, cuz you’re not finding them by looking. Nothing like trying to blindly hit Fn-F7 to pause my music to run to the bathroom to find I accidentally hit F8, which should have just paused, but stopped the music, so I get to Alt-Tab and mess with my music program rather than hitting play and going back to my game. This could have been avoided easily by making the not-a-button logo plate next to the volume knob a button. Play/pause, click twice for skip, etc. Other TKL boards I have looked at managed to keep this functionality even with the small footprint, so no excuse there. To me, this keyboard is gaming first. I think this would be a great keyboard for someone who plays primarily shooters and is most concerned with switch performance/feel and likes to tinker. If you’re looking to get a super-premium daily driver to happily use as-is out of the box, you can get more check-boxes for less, but in many cases you lose the complete customization options. For desktop work there are just too few keys, or it winds up being an exercise in figuring out what compromises I want to make with rebinds, since there are simply not enough keys here to keep me working smoothly. When used for gaming, the customization and compact size make it better than a lot of the mainstream boards and setting up rebinds and profiles can really improve your gameplay. The best part of using the GMMK 3 Pro is after you’ve spent plenty of time setting it up exactly the way you like, making use of layers, profiles and lighting, this keyboard will probably make you a better gamer, and once it’s completely set up to your preferences, it sure does feel like home. In general, this is a very quiet, crazy responsive keyboard. It feels smooth and precise in action. The cable and keycaps are both compromises in my opinion, but not showstoppers. With a little bit of customization, this is easily the best gaming board I’ve used.

This Thing's Heavy!
***Introduction:*** Is this a device of a quality which fits the cost? Let’s talk about that. ***General Quality:*** The Glorious GMMK 3 PRO has many features that feel premium in quality. Firstly, the chassis is a very satisfying - and heavy - aluminum. My friends and I were all startled by the weight. The keys are made of a sturdy, textured plastic that feels almost like cerakote - very fitting for the aesthetic of the chassis. ***Typing Experience:*** The typing experience is mixed, with varied-size keycaps equaling varied input pressure required to activate them. The shape of the keys is like a vertical channel, which makes it easy for fingers to land confidently. The home row indicators are prominent enough to make finding them with your index fingers quick, though unintrusive. The travel is smooth and quiet, although the spacebar makes a markedly louder and distinguished sound compared to the rest. You may end up driving co-workers and/or significant others crazy by the sound of it, should you find yourself typing often. ***Volume Knob and Controls:*** The “volume” knob (programmable to function as other things) is a quality, knurled aluminum, which would be satisfying to interact with if the actual sensor underneath were fundamentally different. The look is that of premium audio equipment, but the feel is that of an inexpensive middle mouse wheel. ***Lighting and Color Options:*** Key color options are numerous, including activation of specific keys with specific colors, key regions, or the whole keyboard. You can actually set very specific color and behavior options using the Glorious CORE Software. Colors shine through with a low to medium brightness - not bright enough to dazzle in a regularly-lit (office) environment. If you prefer you can use the software set up “macros” - which allow you to perform custom actions via button combinations. ***Customization and Key Cap Swapping:*** The ability to change out caps to integrate better with a Mac system is definitely welcome, though the space available around the key caps to use the included plastic cap-puller is minimal. Only the metal puller was narrow enough to be able to fit around the escape key - you have to slide it over the cap to get to the bottom of the base, and I didn’t want to scratch the cap, so I didn’t try pulling esc. I did successfully pull the Q cap, however, utilizing the additional room available where other caps are staggered. I didn’t try replacing any switches. ***Device Integration and Toggles:*** There is a toggle on the back of the keyboard to swap it to easily integrate as a Mac-specific device. There is another, 3-way toggle I’m not sure about (documentation was lacking)—perhaps a switch for custom typing/macro modes. ***Conclusion:*** Overall, I like the device for many reasons, but the inconsistent weight of keypresses, mixed with the annoying sound of the spacebar, the non-premium feel of the programmable knob, and the potential to scratch your key caps while changing them, knocks the rating down for me to a 4 star. -HighlyExcellent

I love making it my own!
This is the keyboard for actual gaming rig enthusiasts. It brings about the love for really customizing each component of your keyboard, actually spending time, trying out different things from time-to-time. This is a tinkerer’s dream—from the multi-component hardware adaptability and flexibility, to the software tweaks like lighting and key bindings. For me, for the most part, it is more the usability more than aesthetics. I am totally for the key clicks, the right amount of feedback and the comfort of how it the presses work for my gameplay. The endless design options are so tempting, if they aren't just so expensive. But that's what I like about this is keyboard makes it easy for even just simpletons like me on making customizing very very easy. Ease of use and build quality I love how Glorious kept me interested in customizing it—there wasn’t anything scary about dismantling it, as I used to not want to change other components for the fear of breaking something. But this keyboard is simple to dissect, with keys, plates or screws that are pretty simple to figure out. Also, It has so much compatibility with other OEM or aftermarket components that I know I can replace them should I snap something out of anxiety. This specific keyboard though has a very solid build, from the actual default build, the sturdiness and quality of the components. I know some of my buddies don’t prefer the 75, but the weight of this keyboard makes it perfect on my desk and still keep everything intact when I smash that W repeatedly. Customization In time I know I will replace the keys with other colors that will match my cherry red desk, perhaps when the foam layer starts to flatten. The key return for me at default is perfect, no mushy bounces or misclicks, so definitely no drive for me to change any hardware components. For now, the lighting customizations really help because when I play my dark scene games or I want to play GTA or Star Wars in the dark, I just need to know I see my appropriate keys, and the key customization can be very specific per key with matching brightness levels. This doesn’t mention yet the key combos I can create—but I can also create custom keys per game which I can tie to profiles. Each profile can be switched easily using the switches at the top of the keyboard, so I matched it with my top 2 games with the last being a generic key build. I am happy this makes it easy for me, not just in my daily gaming performance, but also in upgrading how gaming rig looks. I know I am the only one who really appreciates how my desktop looks like. But that’s why I customize it for me. And Glorious knows how to cater to my desires. I recommend.
