Is the Shengshou 5x5 a bit small in your opinion?

[CubeorCubes]

Vote yes if you think yes and no if you think it's not. Just wondering.

 

[SpeedSolve]

I think it might be a tad small, but it fits my hand size perfectly.

 

[Username]

Yes. They could come out with a bigger oneat the same time as the smaller 7x7

 

[littleags]

YES! FINALLY SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY THINKS ITS REALLY SMALL! when i got it in the mail, i thought i got the mini version or something like that.

 

[CuberCat]

I think it is a perfect cube....for me anyway. I got smallish hands...

 

[PeelingStickers]

It's the perfect size. I have small hands. I used to have a rubik's 5x5 first and that thing was a beast (larger than SS6), so when I came down to shengshou it was perfect.

 

[ben1996123]

no

but megaminxes are too small so thats why I like my dayan

 

[PeelingStickers]

Yup, their megaminx can be frustratingly small.

yeah same! i ordered an ss 7x7 and 5x5 at the same time and when the 7x7 arrived i though it was the 5x5 because of the size :L

For me there is something really awful about turning the outer layers on a big big cube and that awful thing is the size and how I'm holding the cube.

I vote it's fine. Nice even.

 

[Akash Rupela]

For me its perfect. For someone with larger hands, there shud be a bigger version. Just like 7x7 is in different sizes

 

[Dylann]

When mine arrived it felt really small I even doubted it was a real shengshou... soon found out it was genuine.

Yeah it's really small, but probably a tad too small.

 

[Sa967St]

They're still too big for my hands.

 

[Ross The Boss]

i think that it could be bigger, but it wouldn't really affect my solves. my hands are normal sized by the way (23cm from tip of the pinky to the tip of the thumb [fingers spread apart])

 

[tx789]

I tried one once at a comp and locked up a lot and found a bit small and got a bad time it was unmodded but it probably takes getting used to after a v-cube

 

[LarryLunchmeat]

It is smaller than my Rubik's and Edison 5X5s but I prefer the smaller SS5 size.

 

[Coolster01]

It is small at first when used to vcube or rubiks or whatever. You get used to it and it starts to become normal.

Anyway, make your own opinion

Current size is ideal IMO, of all my SS cubes only 7x7 and 8x8 are maybe a little big but not enough to buy mini versions. I hope the big/high end versions mentioned in the video mean high quality with lots of nice features, then I'll probably buy a new 4x4 and 5x5. Rounded pieces would be good, and tiles (like for example the Younkee has, I want to try that cube) would be nice instead of stickers, but thats just my opinion.

I'm guessing the 'big' versions are not necessarily bigger, since the 7x7 and higher orders are already quite large, I don't think anyone would want larger versions.

 

[Ickathu]

It's the only 5x5 (besides a rubiks) that I've ever owned, so it feels normal to me.
