Welcome to this I/O Sam premiere of a brand new discrete numpad no one saw coming! As you’ve come to expect from this channel, you know we’re cracking this thing open and dissecting each and every part of this $130 numpad, to see if it delivers in the areas of quality, features, availability and if it offers good value for the money.
In the sound test chapters, we’ll try it with Glorious own Fox switches, as well as with Gazzew Bobagum & Boba U4T and Kailh BOX White. We also tested it with its stock ABS keycaps, as well as Drop’s LOOP V2 pudding, Skyline Rose, GMK Kaiju and MT3 Dasher.
Can Glorious repeat the success of its best selling GMMK Pro with this numpad? Let's find out! Grab yourself a hot cup of joe and come along on yet another I/O Sam journey into the ever expanding world of Mechanical Keyboards!
Today we’re checking out the brand new Glorious NumPad : a super premium, hot-swappable, wireless and fully programmable numpad/macropad.
