Fun fact, 7 months later all these issues are still relevant. Still an amazing keyboard though. Edit: I forgot to add, if you buy this keyboard get the Aura Keycaps if you like rgb. Makes it very pleasing to look at.
This review hit on many points. The software, the website, and the confusion this and that. I owned GMMK Barebone TKL version and I have the same questions/opinions with this review. Good job man.
I finally figured out how to get rid of all the moving rainbows. the software is pretty funky. Currently, on one of my boards I have no motion and key groups sorted by color. "F" keys white, number keys turquoise, letter keys red and so on.
I've got 4 Glorious Keebs. I believe that at least the first 4 nums of the serial number refer to the year of production. It's very possible that the next four digits refer to the month and day.
you stated out one point , i really like they dont print their big logo on the front ,every big name gaming keyboard they love to print their big name on top of it
@@JATCHOYT im planning on getting this keyboard. is it standard bottom row and stuff. i want bare bones. also is it clicky with the banana split or or is it thocky and deep. because sometimes it clicky but sometimes its deep
I just bought the keyboard and i love it. Also i was just messing around with the keyboard and you can chnage RGB profile using (Fn + Ins/Home/PgUp/ Del/ End/PgDn)
Great vid! Glad to see they moved to USB-C. That was one of my big comments about the previous version of the GMMK. Is it gonna be your daily driver moving forward?
Just bought the full ice white and was having issues with the software download as well. my digits are showing 1203 so it's definitely confusing. Subscribed, as I enjoyed how you explained everything and I facepalmed on the spacebar closing the software. I swapped my browns out for box whites and speed golds. :3
Honestly for about the same price point, I would recommend the NK65 over this (entry edition). Being able to use QMK/VIA software alone to change profiles is so important. Hope you get to review that next. This is also coming from someone that was looking for a pre-assembled hotswap board at the time and came across both. GMMK also only RECENTLY moved to usb-c and grabbing one of their boards was pure luck of the draw as some of their stock was still micro.
The NK65 would overall be a bit more pricey after having to buy switches and keycaps, but I am trying to get my hands on a few group buys, everything is selling out so fast though!
I have the original GMMK and was hoping to see there software updated. Unfortunately it seems like its still terrible. I hope that when they do there full new keyboard line they finally improve it
year and a half later and still has the same software problems. I have seen so many posts on different forums about the GMMK software being dogshit, and I have run into this problem myself. I tried downloading the software for my White Ice Fullsize and after updating the firmware (which it tells you to do) and running the keyboard editor, nothing would change. After shutting down my computer and coming back later, the rbg wouldnt even work on my keyboard and nothing worked to fix it. Im still trying to fix this issue and I will reply to this comment if I have found a fix/get my rgb back.
I have some questions to the rgb: Can i customize every single key by itself? If yes, can do i only have a option of like 8 colors or can i choose my own color with the rgb feature? With rgb feature i mean for exampe : Red: #2137 Green:#1234 Blue:#9872 I would really appriciate a reply from a person who already has this keyboard and tried it out because these things are really important for me, i dont want to get scammed like last time again
I feel like it's because most people tend to like plug n play instead of having to fuss with a proprietary software, hence they didn't really work on it that much. It's definitely not a deal breaker!!
The software says “device is not detected, the key settings can not be displayed!” And every time I either turn my pc off or open the software again it resets the rgb. Can anyone help?? Because it’s kind of annoying to have to re do the rgb every time I turn it on.
Glorious have said their newer "Glorious Core" software is gonna be compatible with more and more of their products over time and it seems a lot better, though at the moment it's only compatible with the MOW and the only product we know for a fact it's going to work with in the future is the GMMK Pro - the way they described it, it seems like it'll have better software eventually though, so if you're willing to wait for an unknown amount of time then this keeb is still one you'd wanna consider
Many people prefer their personal prebuilt/custom mechanical keyboard and with smaller sizes, it makes sense for them to take it to school or work rather than use less comfortable or unfamiliar keyboards. Many people also go to tournaments or LAN parties or even friends houses to game and would rather take their own keyboard as they are used the the layout and perform better on something they are familiar with! Believe it or not, keyboard portability is something many people take quite seriously :)
consultants and folks who travel to customer sites for work. Even folks who go into offices, some folks appreciate using their own computer hardware. I stopped using work provided keyboards and mice years ago. Once you go mechanical, you can't go back.
For anyone interested: They aren't limited edition anymore and you can get them whenever you want (to my knowledge)
Yeah i just bought it
Just bought it
@@bxb6665 nice
HOW DO PEOPLE GET IT IM SOO CONFUSED PLEASE HELP ME HOW TO GET ONE
@@lrk9171 go the there website (pcgamingrace) and look for it and purchase it
this was a really good review..havnt seen anyone look into the software side f things so closely, well done!
Indeed well done. Thanks for talking about the software!!
Every time I turn on my pc i have to fix the colors on my keyboard with that software
@@ShagMyster14can u put a link for the software?
I’ve never seen so many mice and keyboard users constantly squeeze and bend them. I can honestly say, I’ve never had that urge.
only 2k subs?
bruh you deserve 100k or more man, great review I'm buying one now
Fun fact, 7 months later all these issues are still relevant. Still an amazing keyboard though.

We’re u buy the aura key caps
@@lopezmestre1771 yeah
@@lopezmestre1771 should be able to buy them on Glorious's website but a good alternative are Hyper X's pudding keycaps

Such an underrated channel holy
nice review.. i watched a few others and they didnt mention some of the things you did, thanks for being honest about the products

It do be looking hella clean! You had great points of the software problems and thoughts how to make them better, keep up the great work!
Appreciate it! Doing my best!
As a recent victim of this GMMK software, this video is absolutely PRICELESS to me. Thank you for explanation, my life starts over again !!!!
Awesome video! Awesome quality for a small channel 👌 Kepp it up!
great review man.. i appreciate you not just reading the brochure from website but really going into a lot of these details

Hey, thanks! Yea they have incorporated some great changes for sure. I am maining this for a while until I build a custom mech keeb... one day

Nice! How are the new switches? I was thinking of putting silvers on mine
The software is definitely the worse part of this keyboard. Other than that, I love it. Wish I had gone with the compact tho.
I liked this review a lot. Not many people review the software's which I find really helpful.
Wow this concise and well put together big thumbs up!!

Yep! Would be amazing value if they fixed the few issues!
I have the original GMMK and was hoping to see there software updated. Unfortunately it seems like its still terrible. I hope that when they do there full new keyboard line they finally improve it
High quality video, very underrated

i hope they will add a choice between brown and red switchers
How could u have only 500 subs wtf u should have like 500000 subs nice vid bro

I really like this one but I don't get why they put the power port almost in the middle of the board, doesn't look very good.
i’m really thinking of buying this, i don’t know if i would go for a tkl or compact since im maining a ducky one 2 mini
I have some questions to the rgb:
Can i customize every single key by itself?
If yes, can do i only have a option of like 8 colors or can i choose my own color with the rgb feature? With rgb feature i mean for exampe : Red: #2137 Green:#1234 Blue:#9872

Really nice review. Can you please let me know if i can assign a mouse function to a key with the software?
wich switches did u use in the sound test and with wich switches are they coming build in? btw it was a really good review
Thanks! Board come with gateron browns
can i please get the name of the intro\back track playing in this video?
Kinda sucks that the full size doesn't have a removable USB cable
The okay and apply is for the onboard memory

i wish it was 5 and 3 pin.
i mean i guess its glorious heheehe
how come all the glorious boxes are always beat to fuck lol
Mine had to come to Canada so it went on quite a journey haha
The website literally says "Starts with 201802 or OTHER", I don't see how that's confusing.
when would you ever need to bend your keyboard? or take anywhere? laptops are for that
why would you travel with your keyboard? :/

"bad software" something that works can't be called bad, it may be confusing, but it works.
save the word bad for something that is actually bad.
Software is hot trash.
@@Red.exe7 compared to something like Razer Synapse, no, it's not.
