Common question: Numerical IPG or IPG v5?
Numerical IPG is the one i showed in the video, which has only 3 settings but is faster to change.
IPG v5 is the old one where you screw it in. You have more potential settings, but it takes longer to change springs and change settings.
I personally think the Numerical IPG settings are good enough, so I'd go with numerical for the convenience.
Numerical 🐐
yes gts3m
If it is the numerical ipg, then how did you get the other ges nuts?
I thought yellow magnets were medium or is it
Num IPG. By the way, if a Youcuber named N Perm popped into existence, would everybody hate him?
I love how there is a tutorial how to solve it in the package. As if someone that pays 60 dollars for a speed cube doesn’t know how to solve a 3x3
In my class lots of people cube, so this one beginner who was rich just bought a ganx and a weilong wrm and he didn't even know how to solve one :p
Flame Thrower that’s not so much being rich, that’s just being cavalier with your finances.

Good thinking

Technically, the instructions were not in Chinese, it was in Japanese...
Give me my woosh.
I left cubing for 2 years and they're already using freaking magnets and abolished the screws... Back in my day we had to actually screw the cube to tune it and had to carefully lube to avoid overshooting XD.
I wasted so much vasline for cubing and mastrubation in my old days😂
Aditya Singh that's literally like the only things it should be used for
sAvAƨ・サヴァス don’t put Vaseline in a Rubik’s cube. It slows it down.
WalnutTime some people like to slow it down to make it controllable
Vaseline breaks down the plastic, so it's kinda toxic the cube
Well it's better than the 1000$ stand

I bought it myself with my own money and personally I love the cube I’m still trying to get it dialed in to where I like it but I love the gan I just wish I’d have known that stickerless is now legal in competition before getting stickered....

My cube progression: original Rubik's with no spring or corner cutting (hell cube) to the Rubik's/GAN collaboration, to the 356x. Each step was pure bliss.
When there are more possible permutations on how to set up the cube than permutations on the cube itself. :D

@@diamboy Fyi, you're completely wrong on your calculations. Calculation permutations use factorials, not multiplication. It's really basic math.

The most depressing moment of Christmas is when a family member tells you the cube hasn’t arrived yet. And this happens on Christmas DAY
The GAN 356 X is incredible in my opinion. I very recently bought one from SCS with Cosmic set-up & it's the greatest puzzle I've ever touched. Buttery smooth, fast and super stable with a lovely blocky feeling. All of the different options for magnets & springs help you to find a feeling that suits you, which is nice because you wouldn't want to spend 60 bucks on a puzzle that didn't end up feeling right. Plus, it's pretty darn quiet.
My GTS3M has been collecting dust since I got the 356, I prefer the extra stability and smoothness of the 356 over the raw speed of the 3M; it just suits me better. For the curious, I'm using the strongest options for springs & magnets.
Overall, I think the GAN 365 X is definitely worth the money.
I think for high end speedcubers (I am certainly not one of them), cubes like this make a great deal of sense. I completely understand why someone would want one of these cubes, and deep down inside, I probably want one of them as well. Gonna have to hang with my Yuxin Little Magic.
Thx for help with choosing a cube!
Your vids are really, really good and informating. Keep it up dude!
The mechanical keyboard of Rubik’s cubes...
Lol
Eh sorta
Call them 3x3s not rubiks cubes
@treelon musk yep..
Mr Krypt Shut up pussy
Just got this cube it is really amazing and i love how smooth it is to turn. The customistaion is great however once you have the setup you want, it becomes pointless. I would recomend this to a person who dosent mind spending £50 on a cube and wants a really nice cube.
the algorithm has blessed this video
Just got the 365 x today and I love it! Thanks so much for the video it was very helpful in figuring out what the tightest setting was.

"If I had to switch, this is definitely the cube I would switch to"
*picked the gts2m as his new main*
*ok now its the wr*
liveraiddd if he had to switch
He didnt switch yet
RadioYT
???
He mained the gts3m and said that if he had to switch he would swap to the Gan X but then he swapped to the gts2m
Listen to 5:21
he uses the gan 356 xs now
This seems like the perfect cube for me. I have a problem with tensioning and how precise it is and the Gan 356 X makes this so much easier.
And say I buy a cube and don't like the magnets, I can change it whenever I want. I'm all for customizing anything and this cube lets that happen. Thanks, GAN, you never fail to disappoint.
I have trouble understanding "never fail to disappoint" 🤔️
@@yiprogrammer He meant that gan never fails to dissapoint us. Meaning it always surpasses expectations
I saw this video a while ago and decided to get the gan X. Now I saw the video again and I agree totally with your opinion.
I recomend this cube 100%.The only downside is the price but in my opinion it's worth it.😊
Hey, J Perm. Lovely video, been watching it everyday while waiting for my GAN X that i ordered 5 days ago. I've noticed your dell laptop, it looks sick. Could you please tell me what model of DELL laptop that is? Kinda looking for a cheap laptop to buy as well.
wow this suddenly popped up in my recommended. i havent cubed in 6+ years and comparing how this cube works to when i had to take it apart to mess with the tightness of the screws and then lubing it with special sauce brings back hella memories
I dont even own a rubix cube or intend to but this seemed interesting
Magma Fang this is literally exactly what I was thinking
RUBIX
might as well call it Roblox
Okay buy a cube and get addicted like all of us
@@ChepFrosty lol
Although I don't have this cube, it's OK for me to watch the entire video of yours because not even a single part I noticed that I was bored. It was just so interesting!!!!!!!!!!!
4:04
is it just me or is that sound satisfying
The time-lapse magnet changing sound is soooo satisfying
Yes,I have the GAN 356 X.If you ignore the price,it is the best cube ever,excellent corner cutting,no overshooting or pops and it improved my timing from sub 30 to sub 27 in 1 day.
Getting this for Christmas👍👍super excited!!
hope you like it!
In my country this cube is not aviable so I'm still using gan 356 Air SM
Me too
Just got my 356 Air SM and I love it. All I have had are Rubiks brand cubes. I started on an original from the 80s, old color scheme also, blue opposite of the white. Still my best time is on that old thing. But I dont see it taking long to beat that on my new cube. IMO $60 on a cube really is not that bad in the grand scheme of things. Cubing is a pretty inexpensive hobby, $60 is alot for just a cube, but thats nothing compared to many hobbies out there. For example one tire for my mountain bike costs $60, set of brake pads, $40. So totally worth it.
I had a moyu weilong gts 2m as my main for a while then i got this cube and I was hooked. Customised it with yellow magnets with yellow springs, i got my pb under 15 seconds with this cube and my average is under 20 seconds when i was struggling to get 19 seconds with my previous main. This cube is very goood, would recommend
I read the title "IS THE GAN 356 X WORTH $60?" and said "No, it's worth 61.99$!!!'
more like $69! hahaha
get it?
‘cause “69”
Steven Gordon hahah omg your so funny help I’m dying
Zachary Schmid right?? also, it’s spelled “ur”
BOI IT'S WORTH 60.01 GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT

@@Twitchte im pretty sure you can
@@JPerm mgc, gts2m, little magic m are all good for cheap
Ordered. Great review, sir!
3:59 when he puts them magnets in it sounds sooooo good
Always good content
I got mine when Gan first posted it for pre-order on their site, so I've had a bit of time to mess around with it.
Right now my setup is Green springs at 0.6, the strongest magnets, and some weight 5 on the pieces. Seriously, it's a fantastic cube. My PB hasn't been set on it for single, but I'm far more consistent on it and I've broken my PB averages multiple times since getting the cube. I completely agree that the 354 had a great feel to it that I was hoping this cube would also have, and I'm glad to report that it's just overall a better version of the 354.
I did actually order a 354 from Gan on their new Infinity setup, so I'm hoping that it also is better than the original 354.
thanks for the opinion! I think your setup matches how it is out of the box, which is a really good setup already, and I love how we can just use 0.6 to specify the tightness rather than try to describe the screw depth haha
@@JPerm Funny enough, I remember when I got my first speed cube back in like 2009 and it was an Alpha V... I put sharpie on the screw so I knew exactly how far I wanted it to be screwed into the core if I took it apart again. Having this specific number is such an awesome way to be able to share tensions with people.
I just solved my first cube yesterday and you inspired me to do it! I love your channel

GAN 356 X : *Gives You Best Feeling*
GuanLong: Gives You Nightmares
Can you also make a video on which is the best cube according to you on the market for all events.
i just ordered one from cube depot because it was just such an amazing price and i can't wait
Stock option for numerical is fast had to tighten but the ges color was perfect (it comes with green pre-installed) and magnet strength was perfect! Worth the price.
I can see how they are worth it and I'm not even a speed cuber. I'm just starting out.
I've watch so many reviews and comparisons and can't ever recall not one person calling any of the decent speed cubes like the X Man Bells and stuff (around 15 to 20 U.S. dollar cubes) the perfect one. This one they don't like the tension, this one they don't like the corner cutting, this one they don't like the magnet strength, the list goes on and on. Most pro cubers have quite the collection looking for that perfect cube.
Meanwhile a cube like this, though it can be a pain to set up with some trial and error, can be that perfect cube you've been looking for. Buy 4 20 dollar cubes looking for that perfect one you'll have spent more then the very most expensive Gan you can get. Pain in the ass to set up? Probably. Worth it though? I definitely think so.
Grimmsha72 if you do want a good starting out magnetic cube, search up Yuxin kylin v2 m, not really necessary to spend that much when that cube is 10 dollars and gets you almost the same times, but if you think you want to get the very best, for me, buying it made me enjoy solving cubes more lol
Who hates it when the gan logo is fading away?
Love the way you make videos! Make more you have a talent in it
The gan 365 x was my main for two month and i've never having bad feeling about it,i thing that because of the numerical ipg and the changeble magnet that make the cube feel more stable but also faster in my opinion.i personally prefer the green spring set on 0.6 and the strongest magnet
Please start making some of your 3×3 solves video in slow motion
And critique your own solves and suggest which move you can do instead please 😇

Ik this video is old now, but it's fascinating to me because I just started cubing early this year, my first good cube was gan 11. Needless to say hardware has vastly changed in just 3 years. But I love tinkering with things. I wish i started cubing in my teens or even my 20s. Boy was I missing out being busy making poor life decisions. Thanks again for teaching me how to cube. It helps me stay sober because I need to have a properly functioning mind in order to continue improving.

But I have already ordered GAN 356 X so I don’t need other cubes :)
The Mr. M is good. If you use Roux. Otherwise its to blocky
I tried this cube at a comp a few weeks back. It was incredible. Do you think that it is worth it to upgrade from the SM? I average around 16 seconds.
I wouldn't call it a direct upgrade over the SM since it feels quite different. I certainly think it's better though. If you liked it so much then maybe you should! up to you

Great video, this is my main cube....I'm still a new beginner and have remembered 5 algorithms so far however I always say the algs when I perform the moves, do you eventually just perform the algs and don't need to say them in your head while performing them? When I see you going so fast I can't imagine that you are saying the algs inside your head while solving the cube at that speed? Please advise....thank you!
I got this for Christmas a couple years ago. It was definitely better than my current main at the time (a MoYu stickerless of some kind) but I never really played with the settings much. But I've been thinking about learning CFOP lately, so I've been "derusting."
I really wanted this cube,but i was in a comp and nobody sell a gan 3x3 but there was a gan 4x4 so long story short i wanted the gan 356 x but i bought the valk 3 power m cause it is very suitable for me and this story doesn't mean at all but i just wanna share my story and i know that the valk 3 power m elite is coming at 2019 and the valk 2 m is almost out too (22nd december) so i'm just gonna buy valk 2 m or not valk 3 power m elite.

Hey JPERM,

I'll end up getting one but theres a really good chance i wont use it, hopefully that will change, i have a habit of just grabbing my little magic and solving with that, id say 5% of my solves are done on actual 'good' cubes, i like the no magnet feature cause when i solve OH i dont like having magnets in my cube, and most of the time i prefer weaker magnets in general.
OH definitely has more people preferring magnetless
4:11 the xman bell has customizeable magnets too
3:47 The yellow magnets are medium magnets if u paid attention to the paper thingy. And the green magnets are weak.
Edit: The paper thingy is the GAN Pamplet
When people say this is expensive I'm just laughing.
I'm not rich, I don't even have a lot of money, but 60 USD ain't much.
