    That intro... editing skills! 🤯
    It's a great cube, specially considering the price. But I still prefer the WRM 2021 or the Tornado V2, as they fit better in my hands and are more adjustable.

    • @CubeManYT
      @CubeManYT  Рік тому +4

      Ayeee!
      Yup, the cube is great, but with other cubes offering more advantages for almost the same price, it’s hard to recommend.
      Although the WRM and Tornado feel great as well, tough choice…😅

      Yes. Your right. I bought the Tornado V 3 Pioneer and I bought also the Huameng Ballcore Maglev UV 3x3 recently. From the Cubicle. I think this Gan 356 M. Is just about as good as these. When I do PLLS for practice especially G Perms the transition is so smooth and Corner Cutting is Great on this 356 M.

    I just got mine today, found a store that sells it with discount, and managed to grab one for only 9$. It's worth it and it turns extremely fast even in the tightest setting, you can pretty much do U2 with one flick, although the reason I bought it is because of the black internals, it looks amazing. It's a great cube but there are other better options.

  • @obsidionyx
    @obsidionyx 10 місяців тому +4

    I really like the quiet sound and stability of the 356m, I don't like really fast cube as they easily become uncontrollable to me because of my turning style. I'm thinking of upgrading, should I go for Tornado V3 or Gan 13 maglev? I heard the Tornado V3 is very quiet but I also heard the strongest magnet setting on the Gan 13 is really good and make it very stable.

    • @CubeManYT
      @CubeManYT  10 місяців тому +1

      Hey! I think both the Tornado V3 and Gan 13 offer significant upgrades and are both really good.
      Personally I would go for the Gan 13 as I am used to the feeling of them and the 56 mm rather than the 55.5. Also the Gan has better corner cutting than the tornado v3, so if you have a tough turning style, I’d go for the gan.
      But you can’t go wrong with either!

    I currently have some random off brand speed cube that cost 5$ it sound really bad but it’s decent and I started cubing like a few weeks ago my time is 1 minute 26 seconds and I’m wondering if it would be a good idea to buy this cube when I get a time below 1 minute and start using it? If that’s not a good idea what should I wait for to buy this?

    • @CubeManYT
      @CubeManYT  2 місяці тому

      Hey!
      Buying an advanced cube in the first phases is not wrong, it only means you won’t use all the advantages of the cube, and by the time you will, there’s going to be a better one. So there is no said date or record to get a new one
      At the moment, I would recommend the RS3M V5, Ball core version, as it has a better performance for a lower price, it definitely won’t let you down! The 356M is not wrong, but it’s starting to be outdated.

      Both cubes are great, however, the Moyu Super RS3M V2 is newer and offers a bit more in terms of performance. The 356M has its pros and cons as well, but it is slightly older.
      You can't go wrong with both, but I would oct for the newest as it most likely has the performance you're looking for!

      Hey gleepe! Thanks a lot!
      The gan 11M is much more worth it than the 356m and that’s because of the features it offers and the increased stability it has thanks to it’s core magnets. So it is a bit more “futuristic” than the 356 m, but both are very very good!
