Smart cubes for the masses
I'm a 35 second average CFOP solver with a PB of 26 seconds. I use full PLL (a bit slowly) and two look OLL. I did have a Gan 365i2 but unfortunately it broke so I got a refund and ordered this cheaper one instead.First thing to notice is that the cube is a lot less crunchy then the 365i2. It seems to be very well lubricated and turns very smoothly. As I said earlier, I'm not particularly fast so I couldn't compare it to the very best speed cubes, but it feels like the fastest cube I've ever used. It comes with extra springs and screws so you can customise it to your preference, but I'm finding the default set-up to be just fine. Other differences between this and the 365i2 are the non rechargeable battery and lack of a gyroscope. I did like the gyroscope on the 356i2 but the extra cost just isn't worth it.The CubeStation app has come in for some criticism and some of it is justified. However, it is improving and there are some great features. I like the weekly world wide leader board which takes the average of your best 20 solves for the week and ranks them globally. This is great for comparing times with others, and gives motivation to try and get a top 20 solve to improve your average. You can have battles with others online which doesn't really interest me so I won't comment further. There's also a section on algorithms which I did look at but it does seem a bit complicated, maybe I'll take another look at some point. The app is still a bit cluttered and because it's originally in Chinese there are bits that haven't been translated well. There is so much more they could do with the stats section and hopefully they will develop it. I'd like to see- Stats on different PLL cases and time taken on each- Breakdown of how long to solve each F2L pairs- Similar analysis of AO5, AO12 and A100 that are used in the Go Cube/Rubiks Connected App- Ability to download the data so that I can carry out my own analysis in ExcelAs is said above, they are regularly updating the app so hopefully they will start to implement some of these things. If not, I'm sure that online timers such as Cubeast will be adding compatibility in the near future.For me, the whole concept is brilliant. Not worrying about timers and pressing the spacebar every time you complete a section of CFOP is massively liberating. I can't see that I'll ever go back to doing that. The cube is great and the app is improving. Best of all, for a price of £35 this is absolutely amazing value. Hopefully the availability issues will be sorted soon - when they are, this will become the most popular smart cube on the market.

Teaches new algorithms
We weren't sure how different it would be from normal cube but it has many helpful features. Improves timing, kids learn new algorithms, compete with players Etc. also eliminates need for a separate timer. Proving to be useful.

App no longer supported/working
Was great when the app worked, but not been working since early Jan - disappointing.Have one very upset son who can no longer use this cube with the App for tutorials.

Cube is Great for me !
I am just trying to get faster at solving a cube, before purchase, my PB was 43 seconds, however after I got my first solve with this particular cube it dropped down to 38 secondsIt has smooth turning and magnetic positioning and I am very satisfied with this cube.

The cube itself is amazing already
The cube itself is great. It's my first magnetic cube and the difference is staggering. The app works well even though there are many strings still in Mandarin. But the best part is that some other apps work with it as well, like csTimer, so you are not stuck with just one.

Good but battery not working
It would not turn on. I needed to change the batteries when I purchased it. Gan support were responsive. It is fiddly to change the batteries, but cube worked well after that. I was hoping for more tutorials for beginner, but the android app was relatively basic.

Perfect for new started to learn how to solve or even pros to learn how to get better and fast 💯💯

All is good, except the CR1632 battery
The battery CR1632 was already flat out. Have to buy a new one to replace it.
