The theoretical best speedcube

[Powstick]

If money/any other limitations didn't exist, what would your perfect speedcube be? Any event

 

[Cubing_Grandson]

A Rubik's brand because it is a real cube, unlike all the fake Chinese cubes people use today


Just kidding, probably one that has crazy corner cutting and doesn't need to much setup to turn quickly.

Do you mean a cube that doesn't necessarily exist, or a cube that is currently on the market that we would like to get?

Doesn’t have to exist, but if the cube that you think would fit you perfectly is on the market then that would count!

The perfect 3x3 cube for me

- one-piece molded titanium core and axles
- 20 magnet-ball core
- Springs
- glossy surface, not UV, with a plastic density and feel similar to the Guhong Pro
- use struts on walls of pieces and also sound deadening material inside each piece to reduce noise and vibration
- edge pieces and also corner pieces (separately) weight balanced
- all dimensions, symmetry and tolerances laser checked, to select identical pieces for assembly
- tests and iterative refinement of shapes and settings using AI robots automatically turning the cube at different speeds, and also turning inaccurately, ie varying turning directions/angles deviating from the main turning plane to minimise catching
- cube should be already broken in, using the AI robot mentioned
- 70g or less. If possible, make it a smartcube
- A darker Yellow colour to distinguish it easier from White under dimmer warm household lighting, dark purple internal colour
- comes with an app and robot with advanced features, compatibility and easy connection to Cubeast, Acubemy, CSTimer and popular cube software, and also analytical tools as well as tutorial and training aids for Roux and all popular method
- all the normal adjustments
- different sizes, but for me 54.5mm

For me: EVERYTHING is adjustable. Adjustment numbers are easy to see. It is approx 70 grams. Nice colors with an optional black side. Comes with a blank center cap and a logo cap. Adjustment tool(s) are nice. 20 or 32 magnet ball core. Center caps come off without a tool, but they don't just fall off. UV coated. Maglev. No screws. Piece magnets, edge-to-core magnets, and corner-to-core magnets. Good auto-alignment and corner cutting. No lockups (not like for CRAZY positions, but for small angles, NO). 55.5mm (approx). Kinda quiet, but very tactile and fun to solve. NOT SCRATCHY. Very durable. Comes with good accessories (think GAN + X-Man + MoYu accessories combined). A decent price (under $73) (I don't want GAN pricing). Comes with good all-rounder settings out of the box (for people who hate setup). Comes with a bottle of lube and is pre-lubed (not too much, though). Strong core and strong pieces. Doesn't get dirty easily.

That's basically it. The TV5 was the closest thing to that, I think.

keyboard virtual cube

I'd like to try a Ferrocore V2, but I don't mind my current main. I'd like a cube that is just tensioned well out of the box, because I don't get adjustment systems.

i main v11 right now, but i want to try the Ferrocore v2 as well cause my v11 has big scratch

my dream cube is probably the v11 but comes exactly set up, doesn’t need me spending 2 months getting it how i like , and maybe a little stronger on the magnets. has lube to smooth it out from start

i do kind of enjoy setting up cubes, but i agree that it probably would be nicer if you didn't have to

This!

I don't know if there are any brands that do this, but the standard Moyu yellow is way to close to white. Cubes with black instead of yellow could be an alternative, but I haven't seen any good speedcubes that are available that way without modifications.

we need to take a hint from squan and megaminx

Honesty, with a bit of break-in, the Feryoocore V2 from the Cubicle is kinda a dream cube.

 

[Michael Wimberly]

My perfect speedcube would be one that has the speed and magnet strength of a Tornado V5 Pioneer, the auto-alignment of a GAN17, the corner-cutting of a YJ Meta, incredible stability, and full customization like a Tornado V5.

Except for the corner twisting and (to me) lack of adjustable magnets.

This will sound strange, but I don't really like customisability because I find it confusing - I'd rather just have a cube that's amazing from the outset.

I like having a lot of customization options because I have some very picky preferences, though I understand that it's not everyone's thing. Maybe a cube that comes on very good settings, but you can still customize it if you want.

The main reason I've stayed away from buying the ferrocore v2 is because imo it's too expensive to not have adjustable magnets.
