    Interesting keyboard

    The build quality of this keyboard is very good overall. It feels great to type on. The frame is sturdy. The RGB is rainbow colors (although you can pick blue), and has different modes and lighting effects. You can also dim the RGB or turn it off. The keyboard seems to work in Ubuntu linux also. One time, I had a repeating character that wouldn't stop for a bit, but was able to get it working again. I've been using it about 9 days and had only one issue. The only critique with this keyboard, is that the company tends to prefer small key layouts overall. I would love to have a full sized model with standard layout. At this price point, I think this is a good value overall. It's competitive with other brands keyboards and it's possible to repair/replace components on this keyboard such as switches and keycaps. That's a big selling feature versus some other options at best buy.

    Super clean, durable, and of course, customisable. The caps and switches are easy to replace and interchange and the aluminum frame helps with weight and durability. Will 100% buy another im the future.

    Fantastic Keyboard

    I've never been too invested in keyboards since if they work that's good enough for me but this keyboard is something special. The build quality is superb, it's solid and weighty so it won't move around on your deskt and doesn't feel cheap. The fact that it uses a USB-C to USB-A cable is fantastic as it is easily replaceable of the cable fails. The mechanical keys are great, I normally like the clicky type but these are just as good hit aren't as loud. The key caps are also gret, good print quality on the legends and just feel great to the touch. And lastly the ability to switch the switches to what you prefer, change the key caps, and the replaceable cable makes this keyboard a great keyboard for both daily use and gaming; and the customizability is the cherry on top. I highly recommend that you at least give this keyboard a try.

    Sturdy build quality, insane RGB brightness and patterns, quietest key presses, very satisfying noise and fast input from keys. I mainly play Overwatch 2 or elder scrolls online and this is the best keyboard I've ever used. I used to use steel series apex 7. The hot swappable keys and size of this keyboard just feel premium compared to razr or steel series.

    New to keyboard building and this is a great starting point as putting together a keyboard from scratch always seemed overwhelming for me. Key switches sounds great and not overly clicky which I like since I use it for my corporate job. lots of good built in RGB lighting options. I switched out keycaps for the Glorious pudding caps and the process was very easy. The keyboard feels heavy and well built.

    Super nice keyboard, the keycap sound is amazing, its not annoying and not that loud but sounds and feels super nice, Also having it as a 96% keyboard is awesome because you still get the numpad but the length of the keyboard is shorter which is super nice for gaming and having more mouse room.

    My favorite keyboard thus far. I dont like keyboards being too clicky and loud especially because my wife sleeps near the computer lol. Keys feel very sturdy and nice deep sound when typing. I had to get used to the 96% because i am used to full size but this made it very easy to do, i didnt want a tenkeyless. Love this over my steelseries and that was my favorite for a while.

    I’ve had this for a couple months now and the keyboard itself is amazing. Solid construction, had 0 issues with it so far and software to use the RGB is simple and user friendly. Just be aware that the 96 keys needs time to get used to, and there are some keys you are missing so make sure those aren’t essential for you or to remap them.

    Upgraded from their original GMMK - mostly happy

    I bought this keyboard a little over a month ago. For the past several years I have been using a tenkeyless original GMMK, which I have loved. I just wanted a numpad since I am typing a lot more numbers these days with my new job. Given that Glorious' numpad cost more than a whole keyboard, I just bought a keyboard. The good... I love how easily customizable these keyboards are. With my last one, I had switched out certain switches for a different feel/sensitivity based on my preferences. The last one had a microusb connector, and the cable kept coming loose - I had to replace it with a generic one and it worked great after that. Since I loved that keyboard so much and the cheapo original cable was my only issue, I wanted to replace it with the same brand. This new keyboard is quieter than the previous model. Even when you put "silent" switches on the old one, it was still pretty clicky. This new keyboard, while still clicky, is much more muted and feels quiet in comparison. The red switches included are slightly heavier than the browns that came with the last model, which I think I like so far. I might switch it up later though - which is super easy with these keyboards. This new model is also much heavier than the previous one, you can barely budge it unless you purposefully give it a shove. It feels sturdy and well made. This new model also has gone with USB-C for the cable, which is nice. I bought their coiled cable along with it, so I am not sure if they have better quality included cables these days. The coiled one is nice though (and should be for the cost!). Now for my complaints. 1 - There is no indicator for the caps lock key. The previous model had a small red LED, which was helpful. 2 - my quote key sometimes doesn't work unless I hit it multiple times. I contacted Glorious and they said others experience similar problems and suggested swapping a switch, resetting the keyboard, and/or updating firmware (mine is the latest though). I am considering just exchanging it. 3. still not much support for Mac - but then this is meant for gaming, so I understand that. I just wish they would at least give a MacOS version for their software. There are many software engineers in this world (myself included) that prefer mechanical keyboards and use Macs. 4. The previous model had the key puller tool mounted on the bottom, but there is no holder for the tool on this one

    I love this keyboard. Compact with a full ten key. It is the size of ten keyless but with all features of a full keyboard. Lighting is awesome and keys feel perfect. It also is very interchangeable with different keys and caps.

    Wanted to replace my old keyboard and found this one in store. Smaller than the one I originally had but I liked the reduced sound the keys made compared to my previous one and didn’t really notice the size difference of the keyboard once I started to use it. Would recommend getting one especially with the different amount of options you can customize the keyboard to your liking.

    This keyboard feels fantastic right out of the box. The linear switches are smooth and quiet, and the hot swappable feature makes customizing super easy. Build quality is solid, and the 96% layout saves space while keeping all the keys I need. Perfect for gaming and work.

    LOVE IT! my only issues is that my letter "D" doesn't always work. I haven't tried to take it off and put it back on yet though. That might fix the problem. Other than that, its great. There are a lot of ways to customize the color combinations/ effects. Its also a lot heavier than I thought which I really appreciate.

    Went through many different keyboards from minis to full size and once I found this one I have never looked back. Metal base with enough weight to keep it firmly planted with good switches, have had it for a while and its still going strong

    Pretty solid keyboard. Slight decrease in size from a standard tenkey keyboard takes some getting used to if you use the whole keyboard, but I used this daily when I worked from home and it was solid for gaming as well.

    Easily modifiable. Heavy so it doesn't slide. Using different switches on different keys makes a bigger difference than I thought it would. Good looking to boot. Would still recommend even if it didnt have rgb.
