What one Redditor said

The GMMK Pro might not be the fanciest board around, but it's one of the OG boards when it comes to this kind of look : thick borders, knob, rounded edges. Overall very clean

Their only good keyboard was the GMMK Pro... Even that was kinda iffy 😂

Gmmk pro got a lot of hate back in the day for being stiff, dead sounding, so keep this in mind also. For $50 though, you're getting a lot tbh.

I like the GMMK pro... it’s pretty much all metal (unless they added a polycarbonate plate instead of stock aluminum) so it’s durable. ...the GMMK pro is VIA compatible so if their software gives you

I Had to machine the base... literally, to correct Glorious' mistakes and get the gasket mount working. ...Out of the box it was completely shit!

My gmmk pro just stopped working like a year ago... trash

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative2

The GMMK Pro is actually garbage. ...I constantly had double inputs/lack of input the entire time I owned it. DO NOT BUY A GMMK PRO.

My brother and I both bought a GMMK Pros on release day and the PCB ended up dying after 1-2 years. several switches wouldnt activate, replaced switches and they were dead slots.

A GMMK pro is a steal!

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative2

Then mine arrived and 10 keys either wouldn't register or would double register. The hot swap sockets were shit.

Barebones GMMK Pros randomly go on sale for $80, and that price not going to lie, it’s great. ...it works great! Had it for like 3-4 years.

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative3

it took me quite a lot of work to make the board acceptable, as it was terrible when new...

r/MechanicalKeyboardsneutral84

still uses just the gmmk pro

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative42

This sub needs a PSA discouraging the purchase of GMMK products

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative26

Good now you know to never buy gmmk products again

r/MechanicalKeyboardsnegative5

I think whatever they're doing with their firmware, it aint right. ...Wouldn't ever consider buying another GMMK product though.
