Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Glorious GMMK Modular Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Barebone Edition: Compact 60% Size With DIY Assembly, RGB LED Backlit & Hot Swap Switches by Macaiah Arreola

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great kit for a relatively cheap mechanical keyboard

The aluminum body feels and looks good, the LED backlighting for each key looks great, especially with the pudding keycaps and transparent switch housing, and overall I am very satisfied with this product and now I use it as an everyday car. There are two minor complaints, however. First of all, the stabilizers suck. I have a few quiet switches, so for the most part my typing experience is low volume and a very comfortable sound profile, but the stabilizing keys ruin it; They are loud and click. Luckily, they're easy to remove, so modifying or replacing them isn't difficult. However, they are supplied pre-lubricated. So unless you care about the sound, they still feel smooth out of the box. The second issue I personally have is that the scroll lock indicator doesn't seem to work. In MS Excel I can press the Scroll Lock button and the program says it actually turns on, so the button works and I still have that feature, so I've decided not to get a replacement as I need that feature I don't use it at all (because let's face it, who here even knows what Scroll Lock does?).

Pros
  • Impressive, boring packaging
