Pillowed V-Cube 6x6 and 8x8

[Michael Womack]

And probably always will be, so unless MMAP gets a cult, no one (except ppl who like pillowed cubes) will buy this.

Or if you just want to have it in your collection.

Oh gosh....I feel like every time someone says "V-Cube" there's a massive irrational flame session.

 

[Michael Womack]

They are agreeing that the V7 was ****! ;-P

Or that the new Pillowed v6 is clickless.

This would have been awesome 5 years ago
Maybe they will be adjustable

They said that they are adjustable.

...And neither of them can be competed with (pillowed and 8x8 not an event)...

If the 8X8 wasn't pillowed, I would be mildly excited. In my opinion, V Cube stopped being relevant years ago.

I was so expecting a surprise challenge.
Now I'm a little sad =(

I doubt this will be better than a V7x7 and the 7x7 is pretty horrible unless you break it in for a year or two.

That's a very specific number of solves.

Curious to try the 6x6 but because it is pillowed I really could not care less if it is any good or not.

Agree with you and most of it was because that V-cube made there 3x3 that had a Mech that looks more like a Guhong then what the Patent shows.

V cubes the product are fine apart from the v cube 6. I only have 5-7. They just not as good as shengshou. Does a older 3x3 that you think is worst than your main suck? That older 3x3 is still good just not as good as your main. Still v cube the company is annoying with their patent infrienmet claim but what can you expect from them? So v cube were first made in and sold in 2008. Cubes have moved on from then.

I have multiple Rubik's brand 3x3s, and they're all better than my V-cube 5. It hurts to do more than one solve on it. True, I haven't broken in it yet, but tbh I don't really want to.

I've tried a broken in one, and it sucked. I'll take yours.

This was never implied.

Just because someone says a outperforms b doesn't mean the someone thinks b sucks.

So they're (finally) announcing a 6x6 with a decent misalignment mech to make speedsolving it better, and they've pillowed it so you can't use it in speedsolving competitions? This is another example of why I no longer respect V-cubes.

 

[qqwref]

So much for an open discussion platform.

Do you get banned for supporting V-cubes? No. It's open. People just disagree with you.

Pretty much. I imagine they'll be laughing all the way to the bank on this one. Glad they're finally making something bigger than the 7x7x7, though.

Perhaps they're updating the flat 6x6 mech at the same time?

I would really love to see how the new Cubic one if they make it compares to the SS 6x6.

 

[Ross The Boss]

if i were to buy an 8x8, i would prefer that it be pillowed. i have pretty normal sized hands, but i want to be able to hold onto my puzzle comfortably.

The vcube 6x6 probably knocked off the xcube alingment mechanism
