How are general speedcubes so light with 48 magnets when some cubes without magnets (like QiYi Warrior S) are heavier than the former?

Just the title.

Im thinking of the magnet force or weight (i dont know anything of cube hardware)

The plastic is most likely cheaper.

I just made the magnest stronger on my tornado, and its havier too

Plastics of modern cubes are made to be a lot thinner to make magnets feel strong enough to be noticeable.

Sorry for the earlier confusion.

Higher Quality Plastic can be made thinner/ there is some biotechnical design elements, where cubies aren't uniform in their thickness anymore so that only heavier used areas get more meat.
