the effort and detail to change to white clothes, white watch, silver ring, and white mousepad is *chef's kiss*
Gotta go that extra mile 👌🏻
I only noticed the mousepad changing but now I see everything else. Appreciate the effort man ✌🏻
One of the many things to appreciate about his videos
This is why he’s the best
@@randomfrankp you gotta link your watches in the description man..... I need them XD
that sound test added 20 years to my life
randomfrankp will remember this
@@hughlevantjames905 probably lol
Make that 40
And 20 new wet spots heh
lol
Btw for people wondering you can get custom knobs for your GMMK Pro. You can use guitar knobs which have a huge variety to choose from. Just lookout for the outer diameter of 18mm.
Ty
Yes, this is the way. Much cheaper, more styles. The ones with abalone tops look sweet as well.
As a Japanese person it’s funny how our letters are aesthetic (on the key caps) 😂 just like how we think the English letters are cool And then butcher them with typos on shirts hahahaha
Do you know where to get those keycaps? I'm trying to put them on my keyboard
@@brandonpham489 its the Kuro Shiro R2 set, They're not available anymore so you have to pay aftermarket.
I want mine to have russian letters
Lines look cool 😎
These are actually latin letters, not english
0:32 what scares me is that he says "grab ANOTHER cup of coffe"

Man this looks awesome. I've had a regular gmmk for over a year and love it, but the fact that you can now build a really nice board with stuff from a single place is really cool.
I pre-ordered mine a few weeks back and seeing yours and Nathans reviews are making me want my board even more now. (went with the white gmmk pro, 62g durock L2, GMK minimal)
I’m in love with the sound of this keyboard. I have the Glorious Model O this is my next keyboard to go with it for sure
Found your channel recently and love your content. I did my first pc build back in September and ever since I've fallen in love with the tech world lol. Keep making dope videos man!

Yes i would LOVE to see a build of the white keyboard, looks TOO GOOD
I stumbled upon this channel early last year. I never knew that mechanical keyboards were a hobbyist thing before. I thought that a corsair or razer keyboard was the pinnacle of keyboards and I was pretty disappointed with the lack of superior alternatives.
The first video of RFP I watched was his $680 custom Grid 600 one. Now I've ordered a GMMK Pro. Already have my Black Ink switches, Durock Stabs, Suswatari Base + Monotone Keycaps, and a custom coiled aviator cable. My significant other isn't super impressed, but I'm having a blast.
S/o temporary, sexy keyboard is forever
Wait you can get non glorious switches and key caps?!
@@mannyfresh7065 yes
I've been waiting for so long and the review is finally here!
The fact that they sound so good without any modding needed is crazy
idk man, they sound pretty damn stiff
@@Kiwippy I think if you don't use the four screws between the corner screws on the bottom of the board the sound will be better. I really hope someone tries that out because i think that will add more flex and really let those gaskets shine
@@sentsuu the gaskets are pretty minimal to the point that its hard to even see if there is a difference between a well done top mount
@@Kiwippy I completely agree, that's why I wonder if they used Poron gaskets and unscrewed the bottom four screws if it would be better.
@@sentsuu possibly, but I just dont understand why the pcb needs 14 screws, like at that point even the polycarb plate is not going to flex at all
FRANK I’ve been waiting for this keyboard to come out since I’m pretty sure last year. Ever since I watched builds on the satisfaction 75 I’ve fell in love with the 75 percent keyboard layout. So glad you got your hands on these, great review man!
theory, i think glorious makes their money on everything else they're selling. the keyboard is cheap because they can sell the lube station, the switches, the keycaps. accessories basically. and that adds up a lot. like, im not going to buy the gmmk, but im buying the lube station. not going to buy their switches, but I'll buy their brush to lube the switches i am going to buy.
either way, cutting corners or not, i think glorious did a great job to introduce people to this hobby, albeit in a very beginner way. but that's ok, its finally a way to get started without going to geekhack
It’s also manufacturing it’s a company the cost comes from making the molds and the process of making the board
This video made my day better, i was extremely bored and in a bad mood and you just make my day better every time i see one of your videos thx
It’s the wassup guys I’m random frank p
same
I really wanted to buy this.. And it looks EPIC.
That white ice build truly is ICE! Can't wait to see the video for that build. Super clean and fresh!
I love how it looks! Definitely getting it later this year.
Just started watching recently and stumbled across this and I now actually own one! Did the white build you did but with the rain forest keycaps and I’m absolutely in love but they did lube the space stabilizers too much and I think I might have to take it apart and redo it myself because yeah it is literally getting stuck sometimes when I use it. Overall though very happy with the build! Excited to get more involved with the custom keyboard world.
I must say, the "Glorious" name is spot on!

Love the fade in intro, it’s subtle but nice touch:)
that Superbad clip caught me off guard man😭
Glorious to other gaming brands: Take note boys
Every other company, "WRITE THAT DOWN"
My God your profile picture hurts my soul🐕🦺 🗡 0-o
Almost all the companies I buy from do that
We already know what color randomfrankp is going to pick, that dark teal ughhh such a good color
I reserved mine back in November! I can't wait for when mine finally comes in
Besides being asked to subscribe many times throughout the video like I don't know how UA-cam works, the production value and overall effort into making this video is top notch.
0:00 me whenever my step sister is stuck
Lolz
LMAO that was perfect
This made my day
The way he says randomfrankp is so satisfying
IKR?
It feels so strong and manly every time

@@vav413 ayo you know i dont mean it like that
I always enjoy your videos they entertain me and expand my knowledge and they brighten up my days keep up the work.
Thanks for the review! I'm still waiting on my batch to be available
Thanks! Been waiting for this one for awhile. Seems the consensus is "Gateway to the hobby board". Not sure if that's what I'm looking for personally, but I know a lot of people will be happy for the $$
This keyboard is more for newbies. It's the new DROP CTRL.
@@RoMeeHang but cheaper and far nicer
When both randomfrankp and badseed tech uploads at the same time 💯
The keyboard comes with your Social Security Number engraved on the bottom too!
And about such an amazing product *-*
i secretly think that they are family related
Thank you Frank. Im always impressed with your editing chips. Nuts on chin indeed 😂
Great job on the vid! As always appreciate the honesty @randomfrankp !
They probably (hopefully) don't need to cut many corners and can instead rely on their larger manufacturing capacity. Bulk comes cheaper than the very limited sets we're used to with custom keebs.
Taeha did say Glorious confirmed they stamp cut a few metal parts instead of customary CNC-machining. But that's internal and if it means a 200 - 300 dollar drop in price I'm on board.
When are they putting the aviator cables and the keycaps on their website?
You can order them with your GMMK pro as soon as you get the notification to buy it (if you reserved it). I guess they will be available for purchase when the keyboard finally goes on sale.
@@KyriacosAristides ok thx
the amount of time ive waited for this
I have been waiting so long to hear your thoughts on this board!
8:59 Typing test
i've never clicked a video this fast in my life
Excellent effort! Constantly looking forward to your videos :) Keep up the great work !!
This is what everyone needed, off the shelf custom.
Another good looking keyboard 👍
When this gets fully released I'm buying this, those panda switches sound SOOO GOOOOODD
you know that the keyboard itself doesn't come with the switches, right?
putting Lubed and filmed Alpaca V2s in mine but.
Glorious Pandas are really good especially since they are nearly half the price of Holy Pandas.
@@projugofastall yep, I’d buy both the empty board and the pandas
loved the layout it looks like my current IDOBAO ID80v2, will get one of these soon when it ready.
Whoa, can’t wait for that unboxing video! That’s one good looking keyboard!
Everglide Aqua Kings! Yes, please do a full review video of those switches! I'm very interested in them and would like to make sure my purchase is an informed one.
yes pls
so damn nice... why there is always something better coming out once you get anything?...
Love the Reviews man. Keep it up!
I love frank he gives so much information
This board looks great! The features it offers are stellar. The sound test could be a little bit better imo, but something telling me it might sound better without the case foam. As for the keycaps, I think they look pretty bad, and probably sound pretty bad compared to higher quality keycaps. It’s the small details they did on this board that makes it impressive, like south facing switches, pcb mount stabs, and via/qmk comparability. Those are feature you rarely see at this price point. I think I will be picking up the black one once the availability gets better.
One of the keycaps used was EPBT Kuro/Shiro which is pretty high quality. $114 from where I looked it up
Hey, where are the keycaps from the video. Looked on the website and couldn't find it
They’re on per order bro
Loving the keyboard reviews Frank. Gimmee more of em!
Definitely wanna see a build video for the all white one. it looks so sick
While the 75% form factor is nice, Glorious should follow up with some more form factors. While this is more of a personal preference, I would also like to see a 96% form factor! (Since it saves space while retaining a numpad, which some pros will probably like)
And a year later they did (unfortunately they changed from 100 to 96 instead of both).
It's gonna be a great day when you hear what's up guys from randomfrankp
why do people sometimes spell his name with a b
The b wasn't even necessary
@@idioticmonkey didnt mean to add b
Damn that second sound test sound so gooooood.
Bless the glorious with their beautiful keyboard with the approaching price range to go customize this is 10/10 look and price that I really might want to invest on
Where’s his mousepad from, it looks so good, any help would be appreciated
I believe they're NovelKey RandomFrankP mousepad.
PLEASE i need to know what keycaps you used for the white board, the black one white with black accents and Japanese sub legends looks so nice!!!
Yh same they look so good
I also want to know!
The japanese ones are called Keycaps PBT XDA DSA Height Standard Five-Sided Sublimation Process Keycap Compatible with GH60 / GK64 / GK61 / 68/87/104 Black and White Japanese they are sold out on amazon tho, good luck if you can find them somewhere else, maybe try searching simillar keycaps at Banggood or AliExpress
@@saltidis thank you
The keycaps is epbt kuro shiro from limited group buy. Its not the xda dsa you can found on amazon lol.
Exactly what I was waiting for
I bought one just because of this video all this time later, and i love it
"nuts on chin"??? 😂😂😂 Your vocabulary never fails surprises me
I was just about to send to my parents and then that gem popped out.
@@scottnash70 you were going to show your parents a video of someone talking about a keyboard for 20 minutes?
@@scottnash70 yeah why would you do that?
@@maybeoptify Because she's a touch typist that can hit 100 wpm, and she's currently enjoying the Niz Plum 87 electro capacitive keyboard that I got her. I'd go so far as to say she get much more out of that keyboard than I ever could as it is designed to get out of the way of fast typists. Me? I pause to think, then look up and see a row of "aaaaaa" across the screen.
But the one thing that most TKLs are still missing is the rotary encoder, and look at the knob on this one!
Shoot, you're right. What was I thinking?
@@scottnash70 makes sense, but wouldnt it be more fun as a surprise?
Without any modding, it sounds surprisingly pretty good. For that price point, I always prefer to build my own
Honestly - I was preparing to cancel my Batch 1 reservation today. So much negative chatter about this board. But man, Glorious has killed it and this video has me super duper pumped to get my board and play around with it. Thanks Frank! You the man.
what an amazing vid from an amazing youtuber keep it up and I can't wait to see what's next in line
never clicked on a video so fast

Ive been waiting for this keyboard for soo long... holy
Thank you @randomfrankp, I've been searching for a keyboard and wanted to buy the Ducky one 2 sf but this is sick too!
If anybody could link me those White / Black keycaps that he used for the white build, I would much appreciate.
second this

@@MySufferin they are on a waiting list. Damnnnnnn :(
Now I'm waiting for the glorious audio release
hoping they release open backs since they seem to really fucking love holes on their mice
Yeah I think they should do a open back, closed back, and an amp/dac
Okay the for glorious board, that white looked SICK
Looks great! Would love to see how the RGB looks using the polycarbonate plate on the black keyboard.
11:40 he said it again
I liked the part where he talked about keyboards
Oh my god, that is the most amazing-sounding stock keyboard I've ever heard. Definitely gonna buy one.
same bro, added a lifetime worth to my life
the video quality is always top notch 👌
My god Glorious knows their customers toooo well...
I just think them saying “goat stabs” is like shooting them selves in the foot. I’d be totally satisfied if they just called them pre clipped and lubed stabs
8:08 The RGB is gonna look "nuts on chin"...
right i'm like what. I had to rewind it LMAO
Keep Up The Good Work Man!
I tried liking this video probably 10 times! Great video Frank!
claim your i cant afford any of the gaming gear that randomfrankp showcases tickets here.
Dude once again Glorious has killed it. These boards look and sound fantastic and the fact that they've launched product lines to accompany them in keycaps and switches is just awesome. This board is going to bring so many newbies to the hobby. Man I love this company, great job Glorious, doing the PC community proud once again
Omg perfect form factor, with the F1-F12 keys present. Need a black one!
I want to see that white build! Those keycaps look awesome
8:07. Did he just say "nuts on chin"
This is kinda sus
i’ve watched the whole video looking for the catch..
it’s too good to be true.
The catch is that its not the high end custom experience everyone wanted it to be. Still, for $170 it is a great value
watch Taeha's review then.
@@noidsuper you but also, you are not paying what you would pay for a high end keyboard, this is more targeted for those who wanna step into the custom keyboard market.
@@noidsuper I would just take the blue pill and buy this keyboard, the world of custom mechs aren’t for the faint of heart lol
@@GSekong true
Thanks, your video made me decide to get the GMMK Rainforest lol.
youve helped me learn so much abt tech thank you so much!
You almost uploaded at the same time as Taeha lol
Bad seed too
@@yen5625 Glorious planned it so that all the reviews would be released at the same time
@@larryl9297 wait rly?
Yeah that’s what I thought, like GPU reviews, they usually release really close or at the same time
@@haka2622 they didn't plan it, its just the review embargo being lifted. Same thing happens with most computer component reviews.
"EXTREMELY budget friendly price of $170"
oh god
Comparatively, yes, it is.
Glorious bringing it's A game for 2021!!
dude im in batch 2 too get this board, im so hype!
"only 9.99 each" lmfao thats for a different color.
But I mean hey their Model O Wireless is abosultely OP bcuz I have it so cant complain
