Upcoming puzzles

If Diansheng can magnetize a 9x9, YuXin should be able to do a gigaminx...

I agree. I was surprised this wasn't magnetic. That probably would have been enough to overcome my aversion to buying stickerless puzzles when a stickered alternative exists. I will wait for reviews to see if it is actually a large upgrade in terms of speed.

It was probably a combination of trying to keep the price down and lack of demand that determined the no magnets. I would happily spend $60ish on a magnetic version, though not sure if I would go much higher.

Took me a few hours, but that's definitely a PB for interval from puzzle released to order placed.

I ordered mine BEFORE I posted about it!

It's a PB, but that's yet another WR that I'm nowhere close to beating. The truth is my credit card payment was overdue, and I had to go to the bank and pay it before I could order the gigaminx.

Looks like the G4 timer will stay alive at least 8 months. New matw are on sale.

The gigaminx is here and it's real! I don't have time for a full scramble and solve now. Very early impressions: turning is light for the size of the puzzle, slightly catchy with any speed, would be fantastic with very strong magnets. Similar to YLM puzzles before they started getting fancy, reminds me a lot of the YLM 6x6.

At last, a stickerless gigaminx! Sticker issues are the main reason i rarely solve these types of puzzles.

Diansheng is making so many good, magnetic cubes for unofficial events, props to them.
@One Wheel , you should have waited a few days, lol.

I mean, I’ve tried a friends 8x8 and to me it was rlly slow so the gigaminx may have the same issue, the yuxin one may be faster and cheaper, knowing their economical price tag

@One Wheel , you should have waited a few days, lol.

I might just have to get another one. Doesn't Diansheng have a history of announcing a long time before the puzzles are actually released?

I doubt I'll wear out the yuxin one before it comes out: I just got a 22:45 PB. I don't have a ton of redundant puzzles other than 3-7 NxN.

I got the Yuxin Gigaminx yesterday and love it. Only done one solve on it so far but it's fantastic and it's so great not worrying about tiny stickers falling off like my Shengshou Gigaminx

I finished the solve and got online and I see Diansheng advertising a magnetic Gigaminx, lol.

I'll get it when it's available. That sounds crazy and really cool.

Anything special about this? Just seems like a "new" design to their old version which has the same functions

Fanxin has an older version? I know Yuxin does, they're on their 3rd or 4th version now.

I am scared of this cube.

If you hide your wallet there's nothing to be scared of.
