Our take on the Glorious GMMK 3 Barebones Mechanical Keyboard

The GMMK 3 Barebones is a 75% wired mechanical keyboard kit from Glorious that ships without switches or keycaps. Its selling point is modularity: hot-swap sockets, a gasket-mounted plate, and swappable top frames and badges let you rebuild the board's feel and look without soldering. You supply the switches and keycaps, so the real cost runs well above the kit price. At $154.98 at Walmart as of November 6, 2026, it is the only new price listed, so there is no recent range to compare against.
