It's funny, because yestarday you mention that for them $5 is too much, and then you are saying you have a phone, desktop pc, and a facebook
account.

But let's not get off topic anymore...

my mom says that only, but whatever.
anyway doesnt the Shadow V1 look bigger than the new cube, or is that an illusion?

Probably just a perspective thing. It's not like one can ascertain a 0.5-1 mm difference with this picture quality.

Guys, I don’t mean to be rude, but this is a topic-specific forum about speed cubing, it’s not Facebook. Please try to keep the discussion on topic.

why cant cube manufacturers cut the corners and make it look smaller so you dont get bumps that slow you down with ur fingers while speedubing
maybe gan could make that
or that wont just work
if there is a similar thread for this pls tell me figured this was the most reasonable

That makes the cube non-wca legal, it provides additional information because you can see extra sides and I would say it counts as too big of a modification to the puzzle as well

The GoCube has fairly rounded corners.

The GoCube has fairly rounded corners.

and being a smart cube it's definitely not allowed.

I don't think rounded corners are a good idea. Cubie edges are important for basic U and U' moves, even more so for slightly harder fingertricks like U flick and F' with thumb.

Now I think back in the day pillowed V-Cube 3s and Shengshou puzzles were allowed so maybe they're still alowed.

Interesting... move the magnets side to side? Due to core magnets, the most direct way would be to move the magnets closer or further from the core.

That's kind of what I originally thought. It'll be interesting to see more reviews of this cube.

Another thing to mention would be the plastic looks a LOT different and doesn't look like your traditional GAN plastic. Interesting...

Is the new GAN cube only coming in stickerless?

I'm pretty sure that it will come in both. They've only made a small amount so far and they must have all been stickerless.

Ok good. I was worried because in Felik's video description, he said he's a stickerless solver now. I thought maybe that was because they weren't making a stickered version of this.

yea i guess.
the corners sometimes slow me down but it also has its good points.

Will check back with GAN just to confirm. Just got some information on how the packaged item will look as well as some promotional material. Will share in my upcoming vid this week.

The plastic looks very toy-like and not your traditional GAN type. In terms of whether or not it will be stickered or not we will just have to wait and see. I don't think GAN would go all out with a Stickerless only cube as the stickered versions have always been good and I doubt they will not do any stickered cubes of the Gan 11 M Pro.

It also looks as though they are making a matte and glossy cubes so it may be the case that they don't have a stickered cube as if they're making these two variants then it may see possible that they don't make a stickered version. Well, they're my thoughts anyway...

As I said, I still wouldn't be too sure but I don't think they will ditch the stickered variant for a glossy and matte variant.

EDIT: In the Feliks Vid you can't really see the internals either so we'll have to wait and see for that as well.
