Title and also can you answer this, If I use my non DIY enough will it become better/as good as a DIY?

For the centers i found Arnaud's Tutorials very useful.

Some storebought cubes can become good speedcubes, however it hasn't happened to me yet =(

It will take ages to break in a store cube till it is like a DIY.

Why not just solve the centers intuitively? That's what i did. I started cubing about 2 months ago and learned the beginners method for the 3x3x3. Once i had the 3x3x3 down, i bought myself a 2x2x2, 4x4x4, and 5x5x5, which i solved intuitively. Solving the 5x5x5 centers are very simple in my opinion.

I think everyone solves centers intuitively (except maybe the non-reduction-solvers). But having a system and some common patterns makes it a lot faster

You have to solve the centers using basic logic.
Make a bar put it next to a bar.

Have u checked on youtube for tutorials?

NO JON NO.... WORST THING EVER. It took me like 10 minutes to solve the cube w/ that method, and then when I switched to bigcubes, i could do it in 4 after 2 days.

BAD JON! NO MORE!

I just solve a 2x2 and extend them on each face
