[@tylermiller8142]

I have the non pro wired version of the 60% HE and it was $150. I Ike it more than any others at this price point and the future upgradability is nice. The machined aluminum (as a machinist myself) is unnecessary for 95% of people and is just to say they did

[@PowGetRekt]

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

theres also a full metal board with a knob on keychrons site (q1 he) and on wootings site any board with HE should have hall effect

[@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 waaaaay better, even stock.

[@uhm9355]

any mentions?

[@Snuffflux]

@@uhm9355 even the wooting 60 doesnt sound as bad as this, and one of the main complaints about that board is the sound. keychron also makes HE boards now which should sound way better than this. theres also a new HE board from nuphy, and the drunkdeer keyboards have been a popular budget HE recommendation for awhile.

[@MarbsMusic]

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!

[@matthieuzglurg6015]

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

[@TIB1243S]

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.

[@STKReacts]

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

[@Finnisher_DAD]

You can immediately cut around 150 USD from the price by going wired only. I just tested out a basic 75 % barebone configuration wired and the price was 104 USD. Adding HE would have cost only around 35 USD more.

[@evorick]

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

[@Zekim1201]

Glorious seems to be the only company that sells clicky he switches, I give them a thumbs up for that. Although, they're prices are unreasonable.

[@Twilight-zone204]

Love your content. Keep up the good work❤

[@BinarPilot.]

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 wooting is plastic, keychron is metal and or wood frame with plastic body, and the cheapest wireless gmmk3 that includes hall effect is 299, bare bones for 250. Wired is 179 and polymer body. The cheapest pre built full board is still 120 with no hall effect, wired only, and says aluminum body in the description but polymer in the comparison so who knows. Edits for the one board I missed

[@Saberknight7931]

While Frank was looking over the different customizations for the keyboard, Im here looking at how the price keeps getting higher. Crazy to get a prebuilt for 500 dollars.

[@canyouread]

The quality is something I'd expect from a $40 keyboard, not the base $130, and definitely not the $300+ ones.

[@Billy_The_Frog]

Maybe the keycaps dont look as good in real life, but i think they look pretty sick here. Also nice that glorious decided to provide the option of hall effect switches, it shows that they did their research unlike a certain other company that starts with the letter "L". The price is EXTREMELY steep though. I don't know if I would pay that much for this, but I guess it technically offers more functionality and customizability than the Asus azoth extreme.

[@CoolStop2]

ye i love wooting even the wooting is considered too expensive and this is almost double the price for a worse keyboard

[@asterisk4424]

Yeah I'm buying a Boog 75 at that point. I like what they did with the customizer because you can really create something that's unique to you, and maybe if you don't get HE switches it'll sound decent or even good but some of the prices they're charging for things is insane. I will say at least a modest setup can hit around $200 but that's with no keycaps/switches and still pretty high for what you're getting. They need a serious price decrease if they're genuinely trying to sell this.

[@ronsun297]

[@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

You can have that quality with Epomaker for less much money.

this keyboard is a serious case of 1 step forward and 2 steps back. Some of the new aspects of this keyboard are definitely improvements over the old version, but Frank does a good job of illustrating that his keyboard is going to need to be modded to fix it.

[@TheGrandPrixGT00]

I have to say... this keyboard really is something, but WOW there's a lot of disappointments from my end already. Even if I HAVE the ability to use a keyboard wirelessly, I typically NEVER will... But the fact that you can do that with this keyboard, is definitely something else, and something amazing, I'd love to have that. And I absolutely LOVE that Red theme, and I love the look of this layout better, in the form factor of it at least. I like the more rounded and smooth edging, vs the harder lined edges. But man, for $500, what is Glorious doing over there! Man, there are SO many better keyboards out there right now that are so much more competitive for half this price point, and yes, we all know you can build one for half the price you got yours at, but once you start with a keyboard like that, how could you stop! Like how you could not want that Atom Purple clean looking top plate? How does that knob switch be off-centered bother me THAT much! I don't know. I may be bias in my saying so, but I prefer many many many other keyboards to this one. And they're definitely nowhere near this price point. For instance, the keyboard that I'm using right now. It's called the "Redragon Elf" and it's got a completely clear shell, with clear button keycaps that I put on it, and the backlighting is amazing. Now granted, they don't have their own amazing firmware like Glorious, and I'll always be slightly bias towards Glorious. I think some of their things are top notch and out of this world. But wow, have they gone above and beyond with this keyboard. But that knob switch being off centered, I just couldn't order one for that SINGLE reason. But I will say... DAMN does that Red look sexy. I am a man of Red, and when I see something bright Red and beautiful like this, I want it immediately. But I couldn't do it just because of that knob placement :( L O L Beautiful keyboard though Frank, keep us updated please. Really looking forward to seeing more of this keyboard! Thanks!

[@Zac-wb7hu]

Id recommend looking at keychron or wootings websites over this. Keychron has a tone of starter boards but q1 he and K2 he both have hall effect. People swear by wooting and the sound test on their page for the 80 he is so much better. Doesn't hurt that they're all cheaper when you match features

[@forg.a]

you can get a maxed out mode sonnet instead of this for cheaper lmfao

[@Dexx1s]

lol no. I own a GMMK2 and was really hoping that they'd actually just remake the GMMK2 or GMMK Pro with wireless support. Instead, they gave us this? They literally took out QMK support...why? Don't take out the only way for Linux to customize the keys then say you support Linux, especially when you have no intention of porting Core to Linux. 3000? In a $500 board?!?! That battery size is pitiful. I didn't even notice that R.Ctrl is gone. I actually use that key FFS. Yes really, you are losing functionality. Why remove a key that every other keyboard keeps? It didn't even add anything in its stead. I thought the comments were probably going overboard regarding the sound. Oh dear god what have they done? Is that a plastic toy? This release was bad enough for me to finally unsubscribe from the newsletter. Thanks for eradicating any possibility of buyers remorse I could have with my Lemokey P1 Pro. Don't compare this to a Razor or Steelseries. Those are a whole separate market. Why not compare it to the Keychron Q1 HE or the Wooting boards? You know, the boards that people would actually compare this to? It's meh in almost every market.

[@dylan10182000]

Just so everyone knows, $500 isnt completely unheard of in the keyboard space, however... It is completely insane to spend $500 on a board that looks and sounds like that.

$500 for no internal, or external weight, when it has essentially the same internals and features of prebuilt aluminum HE boards at the $120 or lower range is just egregious. cant believe they had so much time to catch up with how fast the keyboard market has evolved and yet they STILL fell flat with this release.

This is what glorious came up with, for the alu 65% HE board its $300 and an extra 50 for some wireless? this is truly astonishingly bad even for a company i had no hope in like glorious

[@fbimartybyrde7810]

Clear example of why companies are bankrupt today, how are you going to get a rapid trigger for 500 dollars, having competition for less and with better performance, logitech is not far behind, you are going to know an 8k mouse for 300 dollars when there are mice with the same $70 setup

[@baodu7768]

You Should give Keychron Q1 HE a try for the price and quality is way better.

[@clementfilancia3053]

YIKES 🥶

[@Rymc]

Jesus it sounds rotten, Glorious should change their name to Shameless.

[@ChaoticRenny]

I'll play around with it, if i can get it cheaper than a wooting maybe if not rooting gets my money

[@randyronaldclamana1759]

Twice the price as Keychron Q1 HE? Hmmm

[@imabot9]

This is what I've been waiting for! THIS IS CRAZYYYYYY

[@DeividasGedgaudas]

You should rather build a custom one for $350-$500 rather than buying this. This is one is not worth the price AT ALL!

[@KrispysRC]

Shout out @randomfrankp for saying it sounds like shit straight up instead of sugar coating it. I respect that. Glorious is an ass company has been for some time now. Way better options out there for cheaper and way better customer service... Wooting cough!

[@RobberClobber]

customized a 65% for 450 bucks and I didn't even add anything crazy xD ...no chance its worth anything close to this.

[@xythiera7255]

The want insane money as soon as you add metal to the case its not worth it at all over a Wooting or a Keychron

[@RobberClobber]

@@xythiera7255 yeah I've got multiple keychron pros and a few nuphys and I guarantee they are better hahaha

[@sturmiilennart1920]

Is it also possible to change or turn of the LEDs at the side of the Keyboard?

[@metalskinn460]

Being able to use MX style switches or Hall Effect switches on the same board is sweet but the rest is just nonsense. I'd still rather choose the Asus RoG Azoth over this if I have wanted a gamery board or go with a Neo or Qwertykeys board.

[@folmaren]

So happy I didn't go with this keyboard now. Gonna stick to my drunkdeer keyboard for sure.

[@hitch31997]

For anyone that has one, I would like to replace the stabs. Does it support PCB screw on stabs or is it plate stabs only? Also 3months later and we still don’t have the video of the other builds

[@SP-by4vb]

I'm not sure what happened but the keyboard I got sounds fine. I got mine from bestbuy stock gmmk 3 pro HE wireless.

[@randomfrankp]

What plate do you have?

[@SP-by4vb]

@@randomfrankp it’s aluminum switch plate with fox HE switches

[@NotoriousRKB]

the prices are a little high. And while I love the exo shells it suck that you cannot get an exo bottom plate for wireless

[@8bittim]

On the price subject, i can understand why it GETS so expensive. You're able to customize every portion of this board. Yeah. Its gonna be pricey if you don't go for the base option, which falls in line price wise with other HE boards. So the price actually doesn't bother me much, because YOU set the price. The look is actually really good and im interested in giving a 75% a go. Im going to opt for thocky pandas because those linears sound awful. I suspect that you could greatly improve the sound just buying switches from another manufacturer. If this is compatible with gateron jades, thats a huge win. Sound is extremely subjective, yes those switches sound awful but i think that different switches will help. Installing a strip of poron beneath the space bar is a simple mod fix too. Software looks intuitive and easy to use. Overall, this board can range from something in line with monsgeek and others, or you can deck it out and make it stand out from the competition for a clear premium. I've never owned a glorious product before and stayed away in the past but this genuinely seems like a cool product that i think more people should give a chance. You set the look, price, and sound depending on what you use. If you're not satisfied, mod it or switch out the switches. That simple

[@deltaeternum9270]

Can you apply multiple layers for RGB? IE static color with reactive ripple on key press?

[@johncapistrano5913]

that red on gray keycaps hurts my eyes wtf is that color combination

[@emilyshabang]

People were outaged by the Asus ROG Azoth Extreme, mainly bc it didn't have hall effect switches.....but it sounded great, was way better in the attention to details, and had nicer materials used. If I was determined on getting a high end prebuilt keyboard, it would be the Azoth Extreme hands down at least that $500 price point. Hall Effect is nice and all but Im guessing that CS2 won't be the last game to ban those switches. So that might not be all that important, at least until they are more common place in keyboards. Personally, if the trade off is that much wobble and cheap sound then Im not interested in them anyway. Obviously, wouldn't suggest spending $500 on a keyboard but of the two the Azoth Extreme has a way nicer construction and is more refined

[@michellepainter9057]

They didn't ban the switches. They banned the 'Modes' running scripted software the keyboards were using. There's a little more to it than what KZbinrs are putting in their thumbnails/titles.

[@forg.a]

the azoth is ass quality too

[@EChere]

Why does it sounds so much like a membrane keyboard

[@Escobar720]

I know this might be random but a long while back you showed you making a cup of espresso and Ive dying to show my gf. Could you do a short or a video on it or if youve upgraded then how you brew your new cup?

[@MrSkullhead0]

So what I think people don’t realize is Hall effect switches do NOT sound good. No Hall effect board sounds good unless you maybe get a custom chassis for the wooting PCB. Wooting has made it clear that they will be working on Hall effect switches that sound good too. I am not defending glorious here. I am not a fan of this board for multiple reasons. But just thought I’d let people know Hall effect has a way to go in terms of customization.

[@scourgetaz6019]

People going to say it’s expensive, and I agree. But the customer service you get from glorious is top tier. I’ve had 2 problems with my glorious keyboard in 2 years and both times glorious sent me a replacement part at no cost. They are fantastic

[@fatchicken75]

Okay…? Good customer service doesn’t at all justify an overpriced trash product, but I won’t tell you what to waste your money on

[@scourgetaz6019]

@@fatchicken75 i would never spend 500 on one. that is way to much. i spent 200 and that is good. you can spend the same at logitech or ducky and get terrible customer service

[@timberw1lly]

I'm still rocking my original GMMK pro with the Flex Kit. While this is cool, im not filled with a desire to upgrade, regarsless of the various configs and price points.

[@serenity3157]

The sound profile 💀

[@VarjoPira]

17:00 That'd drive me crazy as well.

[@KyranOh]

This is really cool, IMO. Their HE switches sound terrible, I'd be curious to hear this board with Lekker V2s or gateron jades

[@StaticNebula26]

They're likely incompatible, there's no standard for HE switches so these outemu manufactured switches likely have different magnets and sensors on the pcb compared to an HE board made for gateron HE switches

[@KyranOh]

@@StaticNebula26 I just spoke with their live chat and they confirmed they can only guarantee support with their brand of HE switches, they don't have enough research / testing with other brands of HE switches in their new GMMK 3 PRO HE keyboard. That is crazy to me... I am curious to see another youtuber provide insight on the feasibility of this

[@StaticNebula26]

@KyranOh for sure i know that grain gold HE switches work with gateron boards (they're literally the same design and there's some legal battle around it iirc) if you don't know grain gold, they make the latenpow and geon hall effect switches along with extremely good and cheap mx switches

[@HouseLightweight]

I have a GMMK Pro did some mods for the perfect sound I gotta be honest I've bought some 70 dollar plastic body keyboards off Amazon that sound better than that GMMK Pro 3. Anyone know if Glorious offers replacement PCB for their OG GMMK Pro?
