OOPS, we took it apart! - Mountain Everest 60 Keyboard

OOPS, we took it apart! provides a deep look at Mountain Everest 60, a modular 60% keyboard with an attachable numpad option. The video opens by framing the Everest 60 as a compact, enthusiast-friendly board that preserves a NumPad option through a detachable extension, appealing to users who still want number input without committing to a full-sized layout. The host walks through the packaging, hot-swappability, and the silicone-damped chassis, explaining how the foam layer and silicone contribute to weight and sound. They also highlight the three switch options Mountain offers, including a 55 tactile variant that the host personally enjoys, and note how pre-lubed factory switches can vary in feel. The overview also covers the kit contents, such as a handy keycap and switch puller, a USB-C hub style connection, and the surprising magnetic feet system that lets you adjust tilt subtly or reorient the numpad on either side. The initial segment sets up expectations for how the Basecamp software controls RGB lighting and profiles, while acknowledging that the Basecamp interface can be a bit finicky during a beta phase. By the end of the unboxing and quick impressions, the host teases the forthcoming teardown and real-world usability tests, focusing on whether the Everest 60 lives up to its modular promise and pricing.
