    I really enjoyed seeing the clip from the designer! I think that cubers should know more about how the cubes they compete with are designed.

    As a Valk loyalist, I had to try this cube, and I broke my PB single twice in two days with the Power M. The lighter magnets appealed to me, and the weight didn’t really bother me at all. Can’t wait to compete with it!

      I never actually understood the difficulty in color neutrality (not trying to be mean at all btw). Can someone explain what exactly is harder about it than white cross solving?

    Patrick is a really cool dude. I got to be part of an interview with two of my friends immediately after he got the wr and he was happy, but not super like, braggy about it. In case you have seen it, I was the kid with the cringy voice who asked if he was going to win 4x4. He is a really humble and hard working dude.

    All 3x3s from reputable companies are excellent these days. I like how your reviews actually go in depth about what makes the cube unique from other modern 3x3s, instead of just saying "This is an amazing cube! Definitely get it!".

    @technopanda2444 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like how they show reviews even though they are not for the cube. It is nice to see reviews showing not only the upsides, but also the downsides to compare and contrast between cubes. Showing only positive comments can lead to thinking that a cube is basically perfect, even though there is no perfect cube, as it is all up to preference.

  • @TonyMeersmans
    @TonyMeersmans 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for showing not only sponsored Cubers that are 100% positive on the cubes that they tested but also those that have mixed feelings... Keep up the good work Cubicle.

      Not to show off, but when I started with CFOP I was accidentally already color neutral, like since the first moment. But I am not that good tho, I'm recently sub-17 with my GAN 356 X and i am still practicing.

  • @corpsentry3645
    @corpsentry3645 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Idk which one's better, I'm thinking of buying the Stickerless one because when it falls the tiles of the pieces won't pop off like my unmagnetized black Valk. But I wanted to snag the last black magnetic Valk since it kinda had better shades. Can you guys help me decide?

  • @woahaqua6532
    @woahaqua6532 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    For all the people saying that they are worried about their package, don’t be. The cubicle is a very popular service so it will most likely be a week or two late after the holidays. The package will send. If your order has a lot of cubes, it may take longer especially if it was a cubicle pro shop or cubicle labs... Hope this helped anyone!

  • @awesomefactor319
    @awesomefactor319 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review but you left something out. The extra springs. what are they how do they affect the cube and they just spares or do they change the profromence. It's like you reviewed a gan sm and just said oh there is on the springs in the box not acknowledging the ges system.

    • @cyotheking
      @cyotheking 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dang it...that's my fault. I even tested the springs but forgot to put that in the script...
      I personally thought they weren't very good. The cube got much more firm and I wasn't a fan. The cube is already pretty stable, so the extra stability wasn't for me. I also felt that the cube got slower.
