Frequently asked

Does the Gateron G Pro 3.0 Red come pre-lubed?

Yes. Like the G Pro 2.0 before it, the 3.0 Red ships factory pre-lubed, so it feels reasonably smooth straight out of the bag with no prep required.

How heavy is the Gateron G Pro 3.0 Red?

It's a light linear, actuating around 45g with a bottom-out near 50g over 4.0mm of total travel. That makes it easy to press for long typing or gaming sessions.

Is the housing shine-through for RGB?

It is. The 3.0 pairs a transparent PC top housing with a frosted light-guide surface, so per-key RGB reads brighter and more evenly than on older G Pro switches.
