Coming out in sept. My guess is that it is cheaper than the original ms3 because L or lite is usually associated with a more affordable version of something. Hope they learned from their mistakes!
 
I've been meaning to try one of his/their cubes. That's the Ex-Gan designer right? Where the cubes have a spiderweb pattern inside.
yeah

so this is the exact same as 10k? why would anyone buy this instead of just 10k
 
Here's some info I got for the GAN mini M Pro, that should be available very soon. It is nice, small and super light at 53mm and 55g. The core is the same as what's in the 11 M Duo and it performs similar, but apparently more stable and faster due to its smaller size. The spring adjustment system is new, and similar to Moyu's (2 dials). Magnet strength is adjustable. It is like a mini 11 M Pro, and the most featured small cube. There are core magnets as well and replacement rods.

What is unique is that it has different widths in its pieces?! The corner pieces are slightly less in width than the centre and edge pieces. The result is like a larger cube with all the 6 faces sanded down. The edge pieces actually look uneven (width vs depth). Here is a photo of it compared to a regular 56mm Gan cube.

Apparently, with the middle layers slightly wider, that has the advantage of avoiding bigger fingers (not children's) getting caught or jammed in the gap when doing M moves on this small cube, but is it legal? Gan seems to take more liberty with its shapes, e.g. the round centre piece .

It's equivalent to the $65 Gan 11M Pro, except it's smaller and has a couple more features, e.g. the new GES Pro+. I think it can be used with their Robot (look at its centre caps), unlike the 11M Pro, even though the Robot is meh. It is rumoured to be able to use Gan's smartcube core, and that's important. Not impossible, but it seems having to give up on the core magnets, unless Gan comes up with a new smartcube more with core magnet rods.
The ability to swap core would be another reason to keep the size of the centre piece the same as other GAN cubes, besides the concern with the M moves. The cube's smaller size and lower mass means it should be faster and more stable, if we can assume the same quality and tolerances etc and if we assume it's used by someone with small hands or for OH. So, it depends on the execution and it really delivers on the specs and promises, it is actually better value than the current flagship, if you are able to make use of the smaller size. Compared to other cubes, it is expensive for sure.
