GLORIOUS Custom Gaming Keyboard - GMMK 85% Percent TKL Barebone - USB C Wired Mechanical Keyboard Kit - RGB Hot Swappable Switches & Keycaps - Black Metal Top Plate

Glorious GMMK TKL barebone: a wired tenkeyless kit with hot-swap sockets, RGB and a black metal top plate. Add your own 3-pin plate-mounted switches and standard ANSI keycaps.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Hot-swap sockets let you plug switches in and out without any soldering
  • + Standard ANSI layout with a standard bottom row, so most third-party keycap sets fit
  • + Metal top plate, built-in tilt stand and a 1 year limited manufacturer warranty

Trade-offs

  • - Sockets do not support 5-pin switches unless you clip the extra plastic legs, per the listing
  • - Listed as a barebone, so plan on buying switches and keycaps separately before it can be used

Prices change often, so check the current price and availability on Amazon.
