IDEA: The Phone Cube / The Pocket Cube

[Berd]

If this is the wrong place then forgive me.

When cubing outdoors or on the go, I repeatedly run into the problem of not being able to fit a cube into my pocket. After looking at the average size for phones, I decided that a 1x3x5 would be most appropriate. I would have no idea on whether this would work or if it would but i ask puzzle makers around the world to get back to me on it. It wouldn't be the easiest puzzle in the world - (maybe equal; to a 2x2?) but it would be more complex than the standard 1x3x3 or 1x2x2 floppy cubes.

Any advice / questions are welcomed

Thanks

I carry my 42mm Zhanchi with me all the time. But it is still a bit awkward to have in your pocket.

Do I hear someone asking for a phone cube?

Fairly different than what is being discussed, but I always thought it'd be interesting to have a phone case with a 15 puzzle on the back. Or if not the exact 15 puzzle than something similar.

Like this, just the whole case instead of just a part.

Obviously not a cube, but phone related

This is an awesome simulator, really similar to the movements to actual moves.

As long as you don't use Roux.

Why Roux could be problem? You can perform M moves easily (right-center to center-down).

By the way: Is there android app version of this? Because on android browsers site is slow (tested on Chrome and Firefox).
And when I searched for Android apps none of them had controls like this.
