Two updates:
Got the Xman galaxy v2 megaminx M and the magnets look like 3x1s (thanks xyzzy for the correction). The pieces have slots and are much thinner where the magnets nest so hard to compare strengths to a hand-magnetized regular v2. Very cool puzzle!
On magnetizing a little magic - a while back I put in N38 4x1.5, lubed with angstrom. Cube felt a little quick so I added a bit of 10k on the pieces and that seems to have settled it down. Good choice for this cube strength wise.
Got a labs version of the little magic - its AWESOME. Looks like 4x2 magnets in there, my guess is N35. A little stronger than my choice and I think better (they are 10% stronger if my theory is right).
I preordered the Yuxin Huanglong 3x3 and I'm really looking forward to it - I'll magnetize it myself with 4x2 N35 for starters. The little magic responds really well to angstrom lubes, I added them to my labs version along with 3 drops of lubicle 1 and it made it feel more buttery and smooth.
