Officially disappointed in SpeedCubeShop.
 
Got the new Maglev RS3M today. It's nice. Fast and loose. A bit too fast and loose for me. A little loud. Doesn't feel much different than the old one really.

Thank you for this feedback. I was hoping that the magnets would make it noticeably quieter than the 2020 version, which would make it more worthwhile and also make other models like the future Weilong WRM cubes quieter. I was actually thinking of getting ring magnets to put in existing cubes, but not so sure now about the benefits.

Perhaps a cheaper option for anyone wanting corner magnets that doesn't need to adjust them? However, I suspect by mid next year, corner magnets will be the norm is most flagship cubes, and we will also have cheap options that are also adjustable.
This Vortex cube weighs 82g. The same cube is also available in a version with no core magnets (75g), and another one with no magnet at all (69g). It's interesting to note that in this case, use of magnets in the pieces added 9g, and core magnets added another 7g. GAN 11 M Pro with all such magnets and weighing just 63g is still the one to beat if a lighter weight is important.

In comparison, the CH Moyu Weilong 2021 and the CH Tornado V2, both with core magnets, weigh 83g and 76g respectively.

The Gan 12 M Pro, with even more magnets (for Maglev), is said to weigh 65g.

I got the maglev rs3m and put the maglev tensions in my CH corner-core modded WRM21 and the weight is 87.45g so not too much extra weight. I noticed a much bigger difference in feeling and performance in the WRM21 than the rs3m. Both cubes sped up and were smoother, but the difference is a little more noticeable to me in the WRM21.
