Even more interesting - ball bearings inside the corners (at 1:03)

5:05 talks about ball bearings.

But watch the whole video... Its Chris.

There doesn't seem to be much hype around the Aochaung GTSM or any release date estimate I could find. Does anyone know more about this cube? Is it expected to be better than the Wushuang M?

Aoshi GTS is out on some stores at roughly 30 USD. Not sure why Moyu didn't release the magnetic version alongside the normal version; it seems that the XMD Shadow M might end up being the first mass-produced magnetic 6.

 

[dboeren]

Cool, I'll have to go look for some videos on that one. But, I'd like to see how it compares to the Shadow 6x6 before choosing one.

 

[Competition Cuber]

What do you guys think the price point of the Aoshi GTS M will be?

Considering what Moyu did with the GTS2 M, Ill predict ~$45 for the magnetic 6x6

 

[dboeren]

Since they probably expect to sell a lot fewer 6x6s than 3x3s I'm going to say $50.

Okay, so I ran the price point of the factory GTS2 M and the cubicle GTS2 M. The cubicle is 49 and the factory is 26, which is ~53% of the cubicle version. So by that percentage, I figured out that 53% of the price of the cubicle yuxin red M is $39.22, so they might price it for about that much

Is there a reason the Aoshi GTS M was dropped from the list there?

Wait, the magnetic version isn't released?
Welp I thought it was along with the aoshi GTS

Gans 460 is out!

Wait for the gan 460 V2!

 

[dboeren]

Apparently the GAN 460 is pretty bad: https://imgur.com/a/TZ8kgpF

Disappointing...

Gans 460 is out!

$54.99 – $55.99, between SCS Supernova M and Cubicle Labs M / SCS Cosmic M. Interesting info in the description - "GANBOX V4, applied to the GAN 4x4 and 5x5".

 

[dboeren]

GAN 460 is up for preorder on TheCubicle now at $55.99. Shadow 6x6 is released (according to their FB page), probably a while yet before it gets to the US.

On aliexpress $45.30 regular and $63.97 magnetic UPD. More reasonable price available $19.99 regular and $28.99 magnetic.
