Epomaker GK96S vs Glorious GMMK PRO

The media could not be loaded. At first, I absolutely loved this key board. It feels great to use, and being my first foray into mechanical switches I was pleased to like the Gat browns as much as I do. The aesthetics of the board are fantastic, and while it did not come with the multiple switch varieties others have noted, it did come with blue replacement caps for the standard orange ones

The replacement is exactly the same as the first and has the same issue, so that’s going to need some reworking on their side.. I think injection mold...

Epomaker GK96S is close but has the F row, I just wish the left handed version kept the arrow keys

Time to get more custom...and along came the highly-popular GMMK Pro, mostly because I couldn't find a reasonable 100% and I wanted a rotary encoder

keyboard feels good, sturdy, and, ok, but the leds, THE LED COLORS ARE TERRIBLE!! Even a $35 Redragon K552 keyboard have better led colors and brightness than this, come on Epomaker, poor colors, poor brightness and terrible software... by those reasons this keeb should cost a little bit less

It's really that which caught my attention. This manifests itself in not just a slew of optional extras that you can get for it, but a premium chassis...

This review might feel all over the place as I'm writing from my my phone. Keyboard is great! VERY solid and heavy and really feels like it will last a long time. Works well, though one problem I'm experiencing that I've never had with my previous Razer Cynosa is pressing certain keys the same time does not register an input. It doesn't happen all the time, though I may pressing more buttons at a time than the keyboard can handle (idk)

The overall typing experience of my Kailh Speed Silver and PBT keycaps build was quite good. I was surprised by how well everything fit together, resulting in a light and rattle-free touch-typing experience that’s made all the more impressive considering the GMMK Pro isn’t pre-assembled. While I wouldn’t say that it’s the best feeling keyboard I’ve used out of the box, the GMMK Pro is definitely up there.
