With the Glorious GMMK 2, Glorious introduces a must-have for keyboard enthusiasts. This barebone model with 5-pin hot-swapping offers the perfect foundation for customization and personalization. Thanks to the 5-pin format, the keyboard is compatible with most available switch brands, including Glorious switches and Cherry MX. Because of the broad compatibility, a wide variety of keycaps can be installed seamlessly. The elegant aesthetics of the anodized, brushed aluminum frame are accentuated by RGB lighting. Eighteen presets offer variety, while the Glorious CORE software provides nearly unlimited customization possibilities.
The hot-swappable GMMK 2, with its 5-pin sockets, is compatible with all common switches. The integrated plate securely holds the switches in place, so no soldering is required and no dust can reach the PCB. Both switches and keycaps can be easily removed from the frame with the included tools. This allows the keyboard to be equipped with a mix of switches tailored to your needs and feedback preferences. Thanks to USB N-key rollover, any number of keys can be pressed simultaneously without ghosting or delay issues.
Robust and compact
The Glorious GMMK 2 features an aluminum top cover with a polymer base, providing a durable and sturdy foundation. Overall, this ensures a well-balanced weight that, together with the rubberized feet, offers stability even in intense gaming sessions. The aluminum is CNC-milled and has a finely anodized finish. Its soft brushed look creates an elegant appearance, and the clear white color rounds off the overall design.
This is the Compact model of the Glorious GMMK 2. With a clever hybrid design, this keyboard combines 67 keys in a compact frame that is close to a 60% form factor, with the added benefit of arrow keys. This saves desk space without sacrificing key functionality. Additionally, the compact size has a positive effect during long typing or gaming sessions, as your hands have less distance to travel. For improved comfort, the frame is angled at 7° to relieve your wrists, and this angle can be increased to 14° using the feet.
RGB lighting and control software
The appearance of the Glorious GMMK 2 is rounded off by impressive key lighting as well as diffuse side lighting. Each key features its own LED and is individually illuminated. The side-mounted LEDs light up your desk, creating a soft, atmospheric aesthetic—18 presets leave little to be desired. Alternatively, the lighting can be customized via Glorious CORE software for true RGB enthusiasts.
But the Glorious CORE software does more than color effects. It can also be used to assign key combinations and macros to keys, expanding the functionality of the Glorious GMMK 2 and adapting it to your personal needs. Although the keyboard is designed for use with Glorious CORE, it can also be customized with the open-source QMK firmware. This allows you to fine-tune and personalize your keyboard in great detail—your imagination is virtually the only limit.
Note: This version does not include switches or keycaps; they must be purchased separately!
