I had high expectations from a $300 plus keyboard. I built a full gaming pc and had used a Glorious 60% GMMK 2 and was impressed with it for under 100 on sale. I thought I would try their flagship keyboard for myself. I was highly disappointed. All the stabs stick! Yes I followed their note in the box to use the 100 plus times. I probably did each 500 they still stick. I should not need to disassemble the kb to remove excess lube and hope it works. (I did not I returned the item instead)
The worst part is the seemingly great frame it has, I was really happy with the weight of it, however the case was not straight. Sitting it on my desk it wobbles as use type because it doesn’t sit flat. Ok maybe it’s my desk, granite counter hmm ok. Nope still like a teeter toddler.
I returned it and went for, I’m still coming to grips with this, a Razer Blackwidow v4 75%. I hate to admit it but it’s great. Dumped the oem keys for cherry profile and it’s perfect. Sorry Glorious you really need QC and a price check. I did buy this on sale for 299.99 yuck. Maybe just get a bare bones if the frame is straight.

This keyboard is roughly $300 and is very heavy. Soke might call that well built, I call it a weapon if thrown. The build quality is… fine the best part of the whole keyboard is that it has a good frame and the bones arent too bad. The problem lies with the factory lubing, it gets so bad that pressing the enter key or shift has it where it slowly raising back up or even gets stuck. It is mushy. The software is fine but nothing crazy. The accents on the sides don’t “pop” out enough in my opinion for them to exist. All in all: it’s too expensive, too bulky and over lubed, but the frame is well built and the volume knob is very nice and tactial. I would stray from the prevuilt version: just because the prebuilt is the only one that has those switches, it does not justify the cost. If anything, stick to the frame and build it yourself or dont pick this thing up. I should also note the stock foam (hardly any) is lack luster and this is probably why they felt the need to overlube the switches so much to compensate for the pinginess of the keys.

This Glorious keyboard should be deemed a beginning keyboard creators blueprint. This keyboard is a bad boy…its not cheap it aint even affordable but ofcourse I got it in spite of that to customize myself and the switch and keycap combos you can do will amaze you. You can learn alot just by disassembling and reassembling it creating the keyboard of your dreams. If i dont like what im typing on its going to affect the quality of my work..with this keyboard it was the weight for me

a very comfortable keyboard to type with and knowing the switches are hot swappable makes it easy to try new switches without having to buy a whole new board.

Great sound, and feels great to type on.
Feels great for gaming and greatly customizable with different tyles of everything.
If you have the extra funds to purchase this (it is pretty pricey) its worth it.
Also the wrist rest is very comfortable and soft feeling.

This is a great keyboard. however the stock stabilizers on this are weak and the keyboard has no flex to it (if you’re into keyboards with flex). The volume control knob is really nice and this thing feels absolutely premium other than the weak stabilizers especially in the space bar. Overall though I would buy another.

Excellent keyboard, however it's missing the HOME key, which I used all the time. However, there are other options. Overall, I'm very happy with this keyboard. It also doubles as a self-defense device, because it's so heavy you could really do some damage to any attaker!

I personally think if you habe the funds to buy this or the barebones kit it is a great entry into the custom keyboard world. The switches they come eith ate pretty nice especially if you enjoy the feeling of linier switches. My one complaint would be that the software for it is a bit limited but otherwise this is an incredible premium keyboard.

Although a bit pricy, for somebody that doesnt want to struggle with building their own keyboard or doesnt have the technical know-how, its a fantastic option and works well out of the box. The hot swappable pcb is great and the switches have a great feel out of the box

Very heavy keyboard but I love how it feels and it hasn’t faltered on me yet. Typically I will start getting squeaky keys within a couple months but this one hasn’t shown any signs of wear and tear.

The most expensive keyboard I will ever buy. Hard to say if it’s worth its price, but the way the keys seem to melt while you type is something you won’t get from another keyboard.
