Name is kind of misleading or I got the wrong product
The keyboard is compatible with the clear holy pandas. Does feel nice. Found out that I did not get the GK64X, but the GK64 Lite. No Bluetooth, but it still does have cable capability.

Mediocre at Best
This was the base to the first keyboard I ever built, and the keyboard I have currently fell back to because I adore the 60% layout. Whenever I got this keyboard, it honestly was very straight forward in building. It is plate mounted, so there is 0 flex, which was expected, but something that I did not expect was how loud the pinging in the keyboard was anytime I would type. After a lot of loving, completely replacing the stabilizers, and taping and foaming up this keyboard, I have gotten it to something that I can deal with. I would not recommend this keyboard unless you are getting it for under $50 like I did, since there are just so many MUCH stronger, budget base keyboard kits

Solid starter board
It's a solid little kit. I used this for about a year and didn't have any issues

Decent for the price
Stabs need a bit of help but pretty good overall. I do like the split space bar option as well.

Overpriced for Current Market (Bought on sale for $40)
I think that there are other products out there that are more worth while to buy than this one, especially if there is not a sale ongoing.
- Plastic case that has a lot of empty space in the back
- Stabilizers with loose fitting stems
- No switches
- No keycaps

Good hardware held back by terrible software.
The keyboard itself is great. Everything about it feels and looks great when it comes to the hardware. The built in RGB profiles are fine if you just want the rotating color spectrum / obnoxious rainbow or basic RGB key press animations (with LEDs off until key is pressed.) The software for RGB control and customization, however, is terrible. It's very difficult to use, clunky, confusing, unclear on what settings do what. It appears there is no way to have a static color that temporarily changes color of an individual key when it is pressed, and no way to use the built in button press animations with a static light. There are also no custom profiles that I can find for download and no real tutorials on how to use the software, aside from a handful of videos on youtube from people who are equally as confused about how to use the software but are stumbling their way through figuring it out.
That being said, I'm hopeful that the software gets better or this keyboard becomes supported by QMK. Until then, I can deal with the stock RGB profiles or just not use RGB at all. The keyboard itself is worth a buy unless customizable RGB is a dealbreaker for you. If that's the case, I can't recommend it.

Great for starting out or building a budget board
The driver is a little bit weird, but the case itself is pretty and works well.

My First Custom
Honestly, I’m pleasantly surprised by the GK64 Lite. This was the base for my first build and the sound and form was shockingly satisfying. The case, PCB, stabs, and plate are fully assembled and all you have to do is add your switches and key caps (and custom cable if you go that route). I personally tried to keep it as inexpensive as I could, so I used Halo True switches and the Matcha XDA profile keycap set, but even going that route it turned out pretty solid. I achieved a sound that I thought was only achievable in a more expensive case. I genuinely recommend this for a first board! My only gripe about this board is that the “white” LEDs on this board are more of a light blue. Other than that, once you adjust to the single unit shift key it’s all smooth sailing from there. The drivers don’t allow you to change the LED effects, there are some different settings, but almost all are rainbow puke.

FifthPinneddid yours also come with pre-foamed and pre-lubbed stabs? I check reviews for it and it doesn't include that so I'm not sure if it's a recent addition or something
