Btw they say 8k polling but won't disclose the scan rate. It's more than likely fake 8k. The switches look like they're made by Oetemu who already sells tactile and clicky HE switches. They are terrible and feel really bad so I bet they are the OEM. I have no idea why glorious used such bad switches at the price point. Btw can you test their switches in a wooting? Is their polarity the same? I would be interested in trying their lynx silents in it if they work.
You are probably spot on about the scan rate, I would not be surprised at all. According to u/Aztaloth on Reddit: "These share polarity with the Gateron Double rail magnetic switches used in Keychron boards" and they have used the switches on both boards interchangeably, so that would be your best frame of reference for switch compatibility. Very disappointing about the choice of the red switch, especially at this price point, and when the Lynx switches are far superior. IMO the Keychron boards are overpriced as well, so I can't say if it would be worth using the Glorious switches in another board. I have had a great experience with Gateron magnetic switches in other boards (Wooting and Polar65), and am looking forward to swapping out for Jade Maxes in the Apex Pro Mini when those arrive.
@@SkyCapGG Do you have a wooting on hand to test with? That doesn't make a lot of sense because oetemu doesn't have other switches that match the polarity of the KeyChron, and the magnet orientation is up/down not sideways like the Keychron to make this possible.
@@sharkosaurfps Unfortunately no, I sold my 60HE a few months back. I do have a link to the OP that shares they were compatible. www.reddit.com/r/glorious/comments/1fffs4y/24_hours_with_the_gmmk_3_pro_he_a_mini_review_the/ I believe these switches were made specifically for Glorious, so I am not sure if it is indeed Oetemu that is the OEM. I actually use the HE Board Sheet v2 google sheet (Which I believe is yours?) as my first stop for info on switch compatibility and OEMs, though didn't find these on there, or at least as any reference to Glorious. I do see Oetemu listed as the switch for several other brands (MonsGeek, Keydous, Yunzii) whose compatibility does not appear to be referenced on any of the switches on Gateron's site.
Talked to glorious support, and they said this kb doesn't have SOCD/Snap Tap. So...Why TF would you get this over any random 100$ gaming kb? I'm so pissed! Seems not even the top of the like GMMK 3 Pro HE wireless supports it. 209$ in my country for the 3 he 65% and its a joke. Commonly accessible boards like the Apex pro TKL Gen 3 (but also TKL 2023). Razer huntsman V3 pro line, Blackwidow V4 Pro line have both rapid trigger and snap tap. Cheap aliexpress kbs like drunkdeer have it. Wooting 60he and 80he have pioneered it, and both are the same price as this gmmk 3 he. The only thing I hate is that the wooting doent have volume knob/scroll. If anyone wants this 3he for the fps tech, dont bother. Get a wooting or an apex pro. Im currently deciding, if the volume scroll and play/stop button on the apex pro tkl is worth more to me than the wooting 80he capabilities.
I also ordered the 3 he BEFORE I learned it only has rapid trigger and not snap tap. Cancelled order yesterday. also, seems the whole glorious company is woke af. Just look their ads, webpage and just basic vibe. Worthless overpriced garbage!
gamakay has a budget 75 and has socd with update and its on sale for 89 bucks. plenty of room to upgrade and mod, not sure on the material of the case though.

A Q for the people reading this: do you think SOCD will come soon with an update?
