Is there a cube like the Gan i carry that is legal for competition?

[Discomantis]

So I recently got the Gan I carry, and it has now become my new 3x3 main. I want to use it in a competition that I have in a week, however it is not competition legal because it has electronic components. I was wondering if I could buy the Gan I Carry without any electronic components, and if that is not possible would there be any way to make it competition legal? If that is not possible, then what cubes are similar to the Gan i carry that are legal in competition?

Bluetooth cubes are not legal in comps as of 2023. The reason being the moves can be relayed elsewhere which can prompt cheating through aliases.

Maybe in the far future, with good security measures they would be allowed in WCA speedsolves.

I was wondering if there is any cube like the Gan i Carry that would be legal in competition, as it is my main but since it is a smart cube it isn't competition legal.

Gan 12 or Gan XS would be close enough in turning.

Gan 13 is better so you can switch to that as well.

All these cubes are legal.

I guess someone could see the scramble in the app before you get it to solve.

What if the batteries are removed? Without the batteries it's just a normal nonsmart cube and if no led are flashing, the difference is hard to see.
But I think it is still not legal

Removing the batteries is indeed still not legal. At my first comp I wanted to use earmuffs for 5BLD and 4BLD. They could have batteries in them, and although they didn't have any, I wasn't sure if I could use them so I decided to ask the delegate (Ron van Bruchem), and he said it was still not allowed.
