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.

    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

    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!

    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.

    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!

    At 13:56 it shows the custom keys you can set. However, I don’t see a key for “Home”. Did they forget to add it to the software? They have the “Home” key in the older version of the GMMK software, but I don’t see it in this new version of their software.

    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.

    Don't bother. Yeah, other option can be so called cheaper, but if top end 500 bucks flagship look and sounds like this, why even bother to get lower price ones. I have GMMK Pro and still use it everyday, with custom keycaps, artisan keycaps, switches, Knob (this Knob cost 30 bucks), and other small stuff, all of it combined include GMMK Pro it self it still only cost me around 350 bucks, I don't know what was Glorious thinking but this thing is average looking and ridiculously over priced.

    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. Normally half a g is going to get you a REALLY nice board and good keycaps and switches and probably a good cable and some other stuff. Of course you can find more expensive options but at this price point they seriously messed up. I wouldnt be surprised if this doesnt lose them their remaining customers

    Yeah not a chance, the 129 starting price is not for the "pro" keyboard its for the standard model. Sounds just as not thought out as the first pro board, I understand customization and such are a nice feature but quality should always come over quantity, their mantra with this board like you said in the beginning is "a billion customization options" doesnt matter if every last one is still a shit product. I remember when glorious used to be a budget and competitive mouse company, no longer man, really missed the mark hard with this one.

I'm pretty happy with my DrunkDeer HE keyboard though and the price doesn't make this an easy sell. I suspect they'll tweak it over time like they did with the original, so I'll keep an eye on it.

    I hate to be that guy. Board sounds like shit. Also saying again and again oh starting price is this $119. Thats with a bone stock nothing board. I dont see an justification in you talking about it without showing it. Thats like saying hey yea this bmw 7 series is cool, but you can still get into a bmw for 5 grand. I wont show you or tell you which one specifically is 5 grand but its possible. Shitty car salesman tatics. I really thought you had some backbone when it came to reviews. You went out of your way to flame Logitech. I appreciate you being honest there. This just feels like a scam. Call it as you see you see it. You know for a fact you can buy a wooting pbc and do something significantly better for cheaper. Not to mention like everyone is saying. Rapid trigger is being pulled from most games anywho. Id highly recommend saying use switches like this for people who wanna do racing games but dont want a controller. What do I know though. I'm just a consumer. NOT a tech reviewer who has seen hundreds of keyboards. You really gotta ask yourself though. . . Does this really feel better than a 200 dollar board that I would pay someone 300 bucks to assemble? No.

    $500 for no internal, or external weight, when it has essentially the same internals and features of prebuilt aluminum HE boards at the $120 or lower range is just egregious. cant believe they had so much time to catch up with how fast the keyboard market has evolved and yet they STILL fell flat with this release. I would pay 140$ max for the prebuilt variant shown in this video, especially for a company with the size and manufacturing capabilities as glorious easily being able to get the price lower just from having access to more machines.
