Review: Perfect Base for a Custom Build - I’ve been really happy with this barebones keyboard. It works great and feels very durable right out of the box. It comes with some test keycaps, a switch puller, and a keycap puller, which makes building and swapping parts super easy. It also includes a mini screwdriver and some extra small repair tools, which is a really nice touch in case you need to open it up or make adjustments. The RGB has a lot of different modes to choose from and looks really clean once everything is set up. It’s not too heavy, but still feels sturdy and well-built on the desk. Overall, a great base if you’re looking to build a custom keyboard. Would definitely recommend it.
Review: Great keyboard, but I've had to return it twice now - Bought a barebones GMMK 3 Pro only to find out after assembling the entire thing that the 8 and 3 keys on the keypad were dead. Thought it might be a bent connector on the switch and after testing 3 different brands of functioning switches, I confirmed it to be a bad keyboard. Exchanged it for a new GMMK 3 Pro, only to have the replacement have another dead keypad key. I have never had an issue with Glorious hardware before, but the quality control on these keyboards are terrible.

## Features

### ⭐ Great keyboard, but I've had to return it twice now
*by R***D on February 19, 2025*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good But With A Few Problems
*by C***A on October 18, 2025*

Overall, this is a good barebones keyboard for the price. You get a lot of customization via the software which is neat. Build quality doesn't feel the most premium but definitely not bad either. My biggest problem I have is when I updated the firmware to version 0009 it completed bricked the RGB and would not light up or respond on the software, the way I fixed it was FN + ESC then F1 + F3 + F5 (Hold for 10 Seconds.) Everything worked fine after doing the factory reset but I get some occasional flickering on the side RGB light that I did not have before updating the firmware. If you can get this keyboard on sale, I would recommend it, just don't update the software and save your self the headache.
