What type of mounting system does the Glorious Gaming Pro use and how does it affect typing experience?

The Glorious Gaming Pro features a gasket-mount design, which uses a cushioning layer between the keyboard plate and the case. This mounting system significantly reduces noise and vibrations, resulting in a quieter and more comfortable typing experience with a soft, cushioned feel.

Can I customize the switches on this keyboard without soldering?

Yes, the keyboard supports 5-pin hot-swappable switches with a south-facing orientation. This means you can easily swap out or upgrade your mechanical switches without the need for soldering, allowing for quick customization to match your preferred typing feel or gaming performance.

What makes the build quality of this keyboard stand out?

The Glorious Gaming Pro is built with a CNC-milled aluminum case that is anodised for a premium finish. This not only provides a sturdy and durable frame but also offers a high-quality tactile feel and stability, making it a robust choice for both gaming and daily typing.

How compact is the keyboard layout and does it include dedicated media controls?

It uses a 75% ANSI layout, which strikes a balance between compactness and functionality. Despite its smaller size, it includes 82 keys along with a rotary media encoder, giving you full control over media playback without sacrificing desk space.

Is the keyboard compatible with custom keycaps and other modifications?

Absolutely. Thanks to its modular design and standard ANSI layout, you can easily replace keycaps with your favorite sets. Additionally, the hot-swap switch sockets and removable USB-C cable offer flexibility for various customizations, including changing switches and modifying the case top.

What type of connection does the keyboard use and is the cable replaceable?

The keyboard connects via a USB-C 2.0 port and comes with a detachable cable. This allows for easy cable replacement or upgrading to different cables, enhancing portability and convenience.

How heavy and portable is the Glorious Gaming Pro keyboard?

Weighing approximately 1.51 kg (3.3 lbs) and measuring about 332 × 135 × 32 mm, the keyboard offers a solid, premium feel without being overly bulky. While it is designed primarily for a stable desktop setup, its size and detachable cable make it reasonably portable for gamers and enthusiasts on the go.

Does the south-facing switch orientation have any benefits?

Yes, the south-facing orientation of the hot-swap switch sockets helps prevent interference with larger keycap profiles, such as SA or Cherry profile keycaps. This ensures better compatibility with a wider variety of custom keycap sets and improves overall keycap fitment.

Is this keyboard suitable for both gaming and extensive typing?

Definitely. The combination of a compact yet functional 75% layout, premium build quality, gasket-mount cushioning, and customizable switches makes it an excellent choice for both gamers looking for responsive inputs and typists who value comfort and sound dampening.

Can I modify the keyboard’s top case or other physical components?

Yes, the Glorious Gaming Pro is designed with modularity in mind. Users can swap out the top case or other parts to personalize the look and feel of their keyboard, allowing for a highly tailored mechanical keyboard experience.

Product Description

The Glorious Gaming Pro is a 75% ANSI-layout mechanical keyboard designed for users who want a compact layout with full functionality. It suits gamers and heavy typists who value customization and a quieter typing experience. The keyboard supports hot-swappable switches, allowing easy switch changes without soldering, and includes a media encoder for quick volume control.

Key Features

75% layout with 82 keys plus a rotary media encoder, offering a balance between desk space saving and access to essential keys.
5-pin hot-swap switch sockets (south-facing) enable easy switch replacement and compatibility with a wide range of mechanical switches.
Gasket-mount design uses a flexible mounting system that reduces typing noise and provides a softer, more cushioned keypress feel.
USB-C wired connection with a detachable cable ensures stable connectivity and easy transport.

Build Quality

The keyboard features a CNC-machined aluminum case with an anodized finish, providing a solid and stable base. This construction enhances durability and offers a premium tactile feel. The gasket-mount assembly reduces vibrations and contributes to quieter typing compared to traditional mounting methods.

Typing Experience

The gasket-mount design softens keypress impact, resulting in a quieter and more comfortable typing experience. South-facing switch sockets improve compatibility with certain keycap profiles and reduce interference with LED lighting. Users can customize switches and keycaps to tailor the feel and sound to their preference.

Trade-offs

The keyboard is wired only, so it lacks wireless options for users seeking cable-free setups.
Its 75% layout may require adjustment for users accustomed to full-size or tenkeyless keyboards, especially regarding key placement.
Weight of approximately 1.5 kg makes it less portable compared to lighter plastic keyboards.
