Great set of clone keycaps
To start this review off, I do not know what the quality is like for GMK authentic keycaps and I am basing this off of my experience using this keycap set daily for the last month. Like others, I cannot afford the resell price of authentic Olivia keycaps so I have bought these as an alternative.AppearanceUnless you’re a dedicated enthusiast or are actively looking for differences in the details, this set does make it seem like you have GMK Olivia keycaps. As others have said, the legend is not perfect as some letters look uneven especially on the Backspace and on the CapsLock keys. The molding is also different from GMK since these are produced in a different factory.Texture and FinishThe other keycap sets I have tried were a 9009 dye-sub clone sold by another brand on Amazon. For comparison, the other keycap set was extremely smooth whereas the PBT on this one has texture. I have seen that the textured feel is more like GMK and so far, I have been enjoying this over the completely smooth keycaps. I game often and the legend has stayed clear which is thanks to the double shot PBT whereas my dye sub keycaps have fading over the WASD keys.One thing I will say is that there is smudging and it will occur on the keycaps especially if you are paying attention to it. Even after wiping the keycaps down, moderate use will cause the smudging to come back.FeelTyping and gaming on these feel great.Overall,In my opinion, this is a great keycap set to buy if you want your keyboard to have that GMK Olivia look. If you accept that you’re not going to have the best quality and understand that what you have is a clone, you’ll be satisfied with these keycaps.

They're beautiful and thy sound amazing!
I love the aesthetic of Olivia keycaps, and these definitely provide it at a much lower price then the original GMK Olivia keycaps. They also made my keyboard sound more creamy and marbley than my dye-sub PBT keycaps do, which perfectly matches my sound preference.My only gripe is that there is a little extra material around the edges of many of the keycaps, but I fixed it easily by running the cutting edge of a pair of scissors over it.All in all, great keycaps!

Great Clones of real Olivias with only slight printing issues
These are honestly pretty awesome for the price. They are very think and sound perfect for any build and the colors themselves are spot on. The only issues are some text inconsistencies but its so minor that I wouldn't even think about getting real Olivias when these exist at this price. These are basically just as good just without the price tag of "Authentic" keys. Its kind of ridiculous to pay for that when the design could have been made with the Color Fill tool in MS paint. There is no stolen art or anything besides the text itself.

Really good quality clone
I am very impressed with the quaility of these caps. They are very thick and consistent throughout the set. There is no issues with the double shot. They really look alot like the origional GMK olivial set. As a matter of fact my set came with a sticker on the outsize of the box that said GMK olivia white. Definatly wasnt packaged like a true GMK set though. They are a little on the smooth side so keep that im mind if you always have dry hands. Cant say enough about how good they look, feel and fit the board. The only real grip with these is the spacing with the 1.25u keys are a little off but its not the biggest gap to notice. Also the pink enter novelty key is a bit wider at its base than the rest of the rows which sticks out a bit on the end of the board. You really have to take a close look to be able to see this issue.

Good colors, poor legends, just ok for the money
The colorway is pretty accurate to the original GMK Olivia sets. This is advertised as "Thick PBT", but I would not really call it thick. It is pretty average at best. Some keys feel thinner than others. The legends on a number of keys are also poorly done. "Backspace" has a much thicker font than the rest of the keys. Some keys, like "K", "H", and "T" are also thicker/bolder than the others.Decent for a clone set, but should be cheaper based on quality control. Other sets for a similar price, like AKKO ASA sets, are much higher quality.You get what you pay for, but should be paying less for the flaws.

Pretty good for the price tbh
As other reviews point out, these keycaps are of pretty good quality if you don't mind about slight letter inconsistencies, you won't be inspecting your keyboard up close every day to find that one letter looks a bit bigger than the next one.Another thing is that the blacks are not pitch blacks, and they don't look pitch black on the pictures either. These are a very dark gray, you won't notice this if your keyboard is not pure black, and if you do (I have a non-transparent Keychron V1), they don't look off. I believe they're about the exact same color actually, but the keys look satin-ish as they're PBT while the case is ABS plastic so they look slightly brighter at an angle.Pretty good keycaps for the cost IMO.

Cute, BUT MISSING KEYCAPS, DON’T BUY IF YOU WANT FACES
The keycaps look high quality enough for clones, though for some reason my package came without ANY of the face keys that were advertised in almost all the photos, which was one of the main reasons I wanted to purchase this product. Alongside that, I for some reason got a red 0 key from another color way they sell. If they can somehow fix this I would likely give them a 4-5 star.

Looks as advertised, great alternate set.
If you're not interested in paying the ridiculous prices for the GMK Olivia's, these are a great alternative if you want the same aesthetics. I did not have any issues using it with my Keychron V1 build.If you have non standard sized keyboards like mine, there are smaller keys on the bottom rows for those instances. Also, note that the keycaps aren't textured and are smooth.Will update if there are premature wear issues but otherwise a great value set.
