A self-professed keyboard enthusiast with a modest but expanding mechanical keyboard collection, I've also been testing and reviewing keyboards for gaming, productivity, and creative work for years. While this is my first time building a keyboard from scratch, I have been modding my own keebs since 2022. As a barebones kit, the GMMK Pro’s typing experience is heavily dependent on the switches and keycaps you use. I appreciated the 75% layout, but found that the stabilizers leave much to be desired and the gasket mount is a mixed bag. Only after I did serious modifications, which a user shouldn't have to do, did the typing experience become a good one. You can use any 3 or 5-pin switches you want with the GMMK Pro, but Glorious sent me a few sets of their new switches, Lynx, to test it with. The Lynx are Glorious’ new linear switch and feature a bottom-out force of 60g.The switches utilize a POM stem, polycarbonate upper, and nylon lower, which is the same as their tactile counterpart, the Glorious Panda.

Barebones keyboards are supposed to provide a helpful bridge between the simplicity of buying pre-built keyboards and the complexity of building your own unit from scratch. The price you’ll pay to build it to its entirety and the modifications you’ll have to make to it begs the question, “Why buy this?” With its build-quality issues, Glorious does not lay out a nice welcome mat for those looking to get into the hobby of building mechanical keyboards. The only thing that stops this being a perfect first time modular board is the fact that they may have well put the stabilisers in with PVA glue. I’m guessing most people in the hobby don’t mind taking electronics apart to remove the stabilisers and lube them properly, but if you think you can buy this board, plug some switches in and add some key caps you are mistaken.https://www.kustompcs.co.uk/peripherals/keyboards/mechanical-keyboards-accessories/tai-hao-cubic-profile-abs-double-shot-glacial-lake-150-keycap-set/

Some important notes on keysets - you can't fit 'any' keyset on this keyboard, need to make sure to have 1U wide keys to the right of the space bar (Alt / Fn / Ctrl) and since the PgUp / PgDwn / End keys are on different rows to full size keyboard, you need a keycap set supporting these alternate row profiles. There’s more to the world of gaming keyboards than first meets the eye. Keycaps, switches, and lighting are all customisable with the Glorious GMMK Pro range, but starting with a barebones keyboard can be somewhat daunting. Especially for budding enthusiasts. This is where the Glorious GMMK Pro Pre-Built Keyboard comes in. A blend of hot-swappable functionality and a fully formed keyboard, this is the perfect place to start! Hot SwappingAfter I had heavily-tuned the stabilizers, the GMMK Pro sounded great when paired with the Lynx switches but, I wanted to see how it’d sound with my Alpaca V2 switches, which are a bit deeper pitch than the Lynx and because I use the Alpacas in my daily driver at the moment, I applied Deskeys switch films to the lower housing to really test the sound and it sounded lovely. Introducing the all new GMMK Pro 75 Barebone Keyboard from Glorious PC Gaming Race. A 75% sized keyboard featuring an ultra-premium gasket-mounted hot-swappable design, the GMMK Pro naturally dampens keystrokes for a unique haptic and acoustic experience. This keyboard also utilises a fully programmable knob and modular PCB along with factory lubed and cut-screw-in stabilisers. There’s also no need to worry about latency here as it’s a wired keyboard – something that many gamers prefer over wireless options. Glorious GMMK Pro: Price & availability Individually machined and engraved, the GMMK Pro is presented in a beautiful, high quality aluminium frame, so you can be assured you're met with long lasting durability as well as style.

Because I got the keyboard-building kit version, I spent some time building the actual keyboard before getting around to testing it. After it was built, I tested it for two weeks, using it as my main keyboard for productivity and play. There are a ton of eye-popping, RGB preset animations embedded in the Glorious Core software, including Kamehemeha, which is a Dragon Ball reference, Ping Pong and of course one that’s called Glorious Mode, because it’s beautiful and vibrant. I preferred the look I achieved when I configured the colorway to match my GMK Laser keycap set and that’s the thing with this software and Glorious’ RGB implementation; it almost encourages me to want to use RGB more and more. The core concept of the GMMK Pro range is customisation, and this pre-built keyboard is no different. Equipped with the same hot-swapping technology, you can configure the keycaps and switches, which are easily removable with the included tools. This is enabled by the gasket-mounted, 5-pin PCB. As a result, you can mix and match switches to suit your gaming style or replace the GPBT keycaps with a colour scheme reflecting your chosen aesthetic.If you can afford it, however, you’ll be pleased to know that Glorious ships to the UK and Australia.
