'''Jaap Scherphuis''' is a [[Netherlands|Dutch]] cuber from Delft, Netherlands. He is one of the biggest puzzle collectors in the world and a prominent puzzle theorist. His website, Jaap's Puzzle Page, is one of the most comprehensive guides to many puzzles.

He got his first [[Rubik's Cube]] when he was about 8 or 9, and solved it with the aid of a solution booklet. From then on he tried to solve puzzles himself, solving [[Pyraminx]], [[Orbit (puzzle)|Orbit]], [[Alexander's Star]], and [[Rubik's Revenge]] in quick succession (although edge parity stumped him). Over the years he learned a lot of puzzle theory, and has also written computer programs for solving puzzles. He attended [[World Championship 2003]] in Toronto and still finds it "hilarious that I won the [[Rubik's Clock]] event there."

2019: Java applets are not "web based". "Web based" should only include pages using HTML5 technologies. Furthermore the difference between "web based" and (real) "PWA" should be considered.

'''QiYi''' (Chinese: 奇艺), also known as '''MoFangGe''' (Chinese: 魔方格) is a Chinese cube manufacturer.

==Company==
QiYi Toys is located in Chenghai District, Shantou city, Guangdong Province, China. Their development platform, MoFangGe, was founded by cube inventor Du ChaoYu to provide "a creation, development platform to the outstanding designers which come from the whole world."[http://www.qiyitoys.net/en/index.php?m=content&c=index&a=lists&catid=12]

== Products ==

=== 2x2 ===

==== QiYi Cavs ====

decent for the price

==== QiYi WuXia/M ====

most speedcubers really like this 2x2x2 however it can have really bad lockups whcih require disassembly to fix.

==== Qidi ====

A budget 2x2x2 that is OK

=== 3x3 ===

==== QiYi Bullfight (DouNiu) ====

The QiYi Bullfight is known for the controversy involving this and the Newisland Phoenix. Newisland got ahold of QiYi's plans of the Bullfight, and made their own version and called it the Phoenix. The Bullfight's release came after the Phoenix did, so for a while, many people thought that QiYi had re-branded the Newisland Phoenix. However, Newisland later came clean and admitted that the Phoenix was indeed a knockoff of the Bullfight.

==== QiYi Thunderclap (LeiTing) ====
The QiYi Thunderclap was released in May of 2015, and is an improved version of the Bullfight. It is fast and clicky. It can corner cut nearly two pieces and reverse corner cut about one piece. the idea behind it was that it was a premium speedcube but almost at a budget cube price and for the time was very good, and many speedcubers used it as their main. however, now the MF3RS2 is generally preferred. it is also one of the loudest cubes released.

It is also worth noting that Newisland re-branded the Thunderclap as well, calling their version the Lightning.

==== QiYi Sail (QiHang) ====

The QiYi Sail is a 3x3x3 [[budget cube]]. It is fast and clicky, and can corner cut about 45° forwards, and approximately half of a piece reverse. The edge pieces will pop out on looser tensions. The edge and corner pieces have caps on the sides, which can fall out, and the cheap plastic is known to break under stress. However, it was considered to be one of the best budget cubes on the market for its performance and was used in the US nationals sail challenge in 2016 and 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DvqTHp6OBA,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DvqTHp6OBA.

==== QiYi Thunderclap V2 ====
The Thunderclap V2 is generally considered inferior to the Thunderclap V1.

==== QiYi Big Sail ====

The QiYi Big Sail 3x3 is a 6.8 cm 3x3 version of their budget 3x3, the Sail, it was often used for feet solving, but most have since switched to magnetic cubes which are normal sized

==== QiYi Warrior W (YongShi) ====

The QiYi Warrior W is an updated version of the original Warrior 3x3. It is a budget cube like the Sail, but it has generally better performance than the Sail, it has a smoothened covering over the pieces and is still, for the price, one of the best budget cubes, being cheaper than the MF3RS, MF3RS2 and yuxin little magic.

=== 4x4 ===

==== QiYi Storm ====

pops alot

==== QiYi Sail 4x4 ====

very slow and does not have good corner cutting

==== QiYi WuQue ====

generally considered the best 4x4x4 on the market for along time now. It has break most of the 4x4 records

==== Qiyi Mini Wuque/M ====

A smaller version of the original Wuque which some people will prefer, it is 60mm instead of the normal 62mm, it is also Qiyis first magnetic 4x4x4. For some people inferior at the standard WuQue.

==== Qiyuan 4x4 ====

essentially a simplified Wuque design with cheaper plastic, a pretty good budget cube but not as good as the MF4 and CangFeng.

==== Qiyi Thunderclap ====

A budget 4x4 from qiyi

==== Qiyi Thunderclap Mini====

One of the best budget 4x4s

=== 5x5 ===

==== QiYi WuShuang ====

The best 5x5x5 on the market for nearly 2 years of its release, beat only by the Moyu Aochang GTS in 2018.

==== QiZheng 5x5x5 ====

a simplified Wushuang design with cheaper plastic, it is probably the second best budget 5x5x5 after the YuXin and is fast.

=== 6x6 ===

==== QiYi WuHua ====

was considered a good 6x6x6 for a long time, but the Yuxin Red, with 5x5x5 spring swap, was generally considered to be better.

==== QiYi WuHua V2 ====

reduced popping and lockups when compared to the wuhua but at the expense of some speed.

==== Qiyi Qifan/ Qifan S 6x6 ====
A budget 6x6 to complete the Qi series

==== 7x7x7 ====

==== Qiyi Wuji ====

still generally considered the best 7x7x7 except for maybe the yuxin haunglong 7x7x7, however nowdays the Hays 7 is become the best 7x7 on the market, own by all of the best speedcubers.

==== QiXing ====

a simplified Wuji design with cheaper plastic, it is the cheapest 7x7x7 and is much better than the shengshou..

=== Pyraminx ===

==== QiYi Pyraminx ====

==== QiYi QiMing Pyraminx ====

=== Skewb ===

==== QiYi Skewb ====

The first ever skewb to 1) have an adjustable elasticity mechanism, and 2) be available in stickerless.

==== QiYi QiCheng Skewb ====

The QiCheng is a beginner-friendly [[Budget cubes|budget]] [[Skewb]]. The stickerless version is made from frosted plastic like the Warrior W and some of QiYi's other budget puzzles. It features a ball bearing alignment mechanism. It is a bit slower and more controllable than many other skewbs, with good corner-cutting in both directions.

=== Square-1 ===

==== QiYi Square-1 ====

The QiYi Square-1 is the first ever Square-1 to have a stickerless variant, and is primarily known for absolutely destroying all other Square-1s in terms of quality upon its release. It's still considering the second square 1 in the world. But it's beaten by the X-Man Volt

=== Non-WCA ===

==== QiYi Ivy Cube ====

The QiYi Ivy Cube is what appears to be a Cubominx-type puzzle, but is actually a skewb shape mod.

== Sub-Brands ==

=== X-Man Design ===
See [[X-Man Design]]

=== TheValk ===
[[TheValk]] is a sub-brand created for the release of the [[Valk 3]], a 3x3x3 cube designed by former world record holder [[Mats Valk]] that he used to set a former world record single of 4.74 seconds. It was the main of a large percentage of speedcubers after its release. Afterwards, TheValk 3 Mini and TheValk 3 Power also came out with positive feedback.

=== QiYi Cube ===

QiYi Cube is QiYi MoFangGe's line of [[budget cubes]].

'''Gan''', '''Gancube''', or '''Gans''' is a puzzle brand created by [[Ganyuan Jiang]] (江淦源) who set the first Chinese 3x3 national speed-solving record (in 2007). He was also the co-founder of the [[GuoJia]] cube brand. They released their first cube in 2011, the Ganspuzzle I and have since innovated in 3x3 and their cubes have been used to break many world records, including the current 3x3 average by [[Feliks Zemdegs]]. They sponsor many top cubers, such as [[Max Park]], [[Feliks Zemdegs]], and [[Sebastian Weyer]] through their system called GAN Gurus. Gans was incorporated as a company in 2014, as Gancube, with [[Ganyuan Jiang]] still being the sole owner. Since then, Gans have exploded in popularity, despite their astronomically high prices becoming a meme on cubing forums and discussion pages.

Since 2011, they have pioneered some huge advances in cubing hardware, particularly 3x3. This includes putting magnets in 3x3s (which was a collaboration with [[Cubicle]] Labs to make the Gan 356 Air UM), the first elasticity system (GES), the first interchangeable magnets (GMS), and also cube presentation. GAN Box v5, GES v3, GES+, IPG v5, Numerical IPG, GMS v1, GANINFINITY, and Honeycomb v2 are all innovations by Gans.

== 2x2 ==
===Gan 249===
Released October 2017. Gan's first 2x2. Received a lot of attention as their 3x3s were many peoples' mains already, however it was generally considered to be a flop. Dull shades and the sliggish feel were the main contributions to its demise. A magnetic version was also offered as the GAN 249M

===Gan 2160===
Releases 2016? A large 2x2 160mm across each edge made up of 8 GAN 3x3 storage boxes as the cubies. Was meant to store 2x2s, but as it used a 356 core it could be used as a fully-functional 2x2.
===Gan 249 V2===
Released December 2017. It features a honeycomb design on the corner contact points and an overall smooth feel. The Stickerless version features a bright stickerless color scheme, primary plastic internals, while the black plastic version features the GAN Full Bright color scheme and black plastic internals, as well as many features taken from their 3x3s. A very nice second attempt.

===Gan 251===
Released August 2019. The GAN 251 M is the newest 2x2 release from GAN. This puzzle features all of the same characteristics of the 249 V2 M like great corner cutting, matte finish, a light/airy feel, and a medium magnetic strength. This small increase in size (2mm), although seemingly insignificant, is definitely noticeable and gives the solver much more control over the puzzle and ultimately leads to a better solving experience!

== 3x3 ==
===Ganspuzzle I===
Released March 2011.[https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/threads/3-new-product.27813/] A 3x3x3 cube notable for having a stickerless design, when such cubes were still rare. The Gans I was a fast turner, but would lockup quite badly. It's main competitors, the GuHong V2 and Zhanchi V1 were much smoother and effortless to turn compared to the crunchy, unstable Ganspuzzle I which would frequently pop, seemingly at random, even when turning lightly.
===Ganspuzzle II===
Released May 2011.[https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/threads/gans-puzzle-gan2-3x3x3-magic-cube-review.29268/] A redesign of the original Gans, this one came with stickers, and had far fewer lockups. A sluggish cube straight out of the box, although speed improved after many solves. Despite popping being significantly reduced, it could not compete with Dayan cubes, and never really gained much notoriety.
===Ganspuzzle III===
A 3x3x3 cube released August 2013, with a second version (Gans III V2) released in November. One major problem was the lockups and the 'flexing' due to the long edge pieces which was a major downside, however this cube was considered a success, and this is the first Gan cube many people remember using.
===Gans 357===
Released March 2014. Called the 357 because it's a Gans 3-layered 57mm cube, and marked the start of their naming scheme which they have used in every cube since. It was known for having light and crispy buttery smooth turning, a very distinctive difference between other cubes of the time and became many peoples' mains, but did not get much traction compared to the cubes like the Moyu AoLong. This is due to the sheer number of ridges on the pieces; both edges and corners. The edge bases were enlarged to resolve the 'flexing'. As well as this, the plastic was altered to a softer one than the Gans III to help provide more of a buttery feel like the DaYan cubes, and possibly the original WeiLong. An improved "ultimate" version was later released, for people who prefered the larger size over the now-standard 56mm or 55.5mm cubes.
===Gans 356===
Released early 2015. This cube was a smaller upgrade over the 357, which debuted screws in every piece; corners, edges, and centres. This was when most people first heard of the Gans brand due to this cubes absolutely effortless corner-cutting anywhere: up to 50 degrees and 30 reverse, which essentially reduced lockups to those very inaccurate turners. It had the same buttery smooth feel as the 357 but noteably the clackiness and flimsiness had gone away. The 356 also debuted the first version of the GAN box V1.
Some cubers, however, reported fairly serious catching issues on the cube however there are mixed opinions on this. The general consensus now is that the factory tensions were different on different cubes, so you had to set it up yourself.
===Gans 356S===
Released May 2015. A Gans 356 with a different ridge layout on the pieces, however it was quickly discontinued for unknown reasons, and the 356S V2 was debuted.
===Gans 356S V2===
Released December 2016. Updated Gans 356S. Four variants were offered: the 356S V2, 356S V2 Lite, 356S V2 Master, and 356S V2 Advanced
===Gans 356 Air===
The Gans 356 Air was released in August 2016. The goal of this cube was to retain the buttery smooth feeling of other 356 variants whilst making it quieter, lighter, and generally easier to turn. It was the first cube to use the original dual-adjustment system called Gans Elasticity System (GES) that allows users to swap out the springs to adjust the feel of the cube by changing the spring compression between eight versions. Originally, clear nuts were the preffered option but now most cubers use green or yellow. It was extremely quiet, fast, and buttery compared to it's main competitor - the AoLong V2. It is endorsed by [[Feliks Zemdegs]], [[Sebastian Weyer]], [[Max Park]], and other top speedcubers.
====Air Grand Master====
A standard Gans Air instead it came with all the GES nuts, a metal tensioning tool, a bag, and a card in addition to the cube.
====Air Master====
A standard Gans Air instead it came with 3 GES nuts, a bag, and a metal tensioning tool in addition to the cube.
====Air Advanced====
A standard Gans Air instead it came with a tensioning tool in addition to the cube.
====Air S====
The non-magnetic variant of the Air SM and with a lighter feel (69g) due to there not being magnets or slots for magnets. It also comes with GES v3.
====Air S Master====
An 'improved' (?) Air S with extra accessories and GES v2 instead of GES v3.
====Air Ultimate====
The non-magnetic verson of the Air UM providing a similar expierience to the Air S: lighter and easier to turn without the click of magnets. It features the same glueing of pieces as in the Air UM.

===Gan 356 Air UM===
The GAN Air UM was released in January 2017. At the first mass produced magnetic 3x3, and at the time, the only one. It was the result of a collaboration between Cubicle Labs and GAN. Cubicle Labs did the magnetism, while GAN made the “U”. U stands for Ultimate, which meant this was a GAN Air Ultimate. The Ultimate was an Air that had the pieces glued together and the screws in the pieces removed to reduce weight. It was also set up by GAN, and had more GES nuts and accessories than the standard Air. The magnets in the UM were considered weak compared to the other magnetic cubes at the time (GTSv1 M and Valk M), but the magnets are stronger than the ones usually used on modern cubes. A prototype (later named as GAN Air 473, which was given away.) was used to break the former 3x3 world record of 4.73 seconds by Feliks Zemdegs. Many of the top cubers, such as Max Park, Feliks Zemdegs, Kian Mansour, etc. used the cube as their main. Many criticized the cube for being very loud and crunchy, compared to the relatively soft Air. Some also had problems with the magnets falling out.
In 2017, a limited edition version was manufactured which was a Air UM with Max Park's set-up pre-installed and some newer features. 639 were issued to mark Max Park's 3x3 ao5 WR of 6.39

===Gan 356 Air SM===
The GAN 356 Air SM was the highly anticipated successor to the GAN 356 Air UM. There were a number of small changes that transformed the crunchy and loud UM into a soft and smooth cube. There is a GES v2 system that is slightly looser than the GES v1, which theoretically allows for a faster cube. In addition, there are slots for the magnets, which ensure accurate placement and fixed the problem of dropping magnets. The biggest change was the honeycomb design on the pieces, which is what contributed to the soft feel. Curiously, GAN said that this was to retain lube, but the cube eats lube. However, the price seems less justified than the UM, since there was no gluing of the pieces, and magnets would be easier to install due to the slots, yet the cube is $3 more expensive. The cube seems less clicky and stable than the UM, but is softer and faster. The magnets are ever so slightly weaker on the SM.
In October 2018, GAN will release a new 3x3 called the '''Gan 356 Air SM 2019'''. It is simply an Air SM with a slight internal piece redesign and the new GES v3

===Gan 354M===
released July 2018, it is smaller than most cubes but many people like the smaller size, especially for one-handed solving. It was the main of many speedcubers like Max Park and Dana Yi due to it's plush, fast, and controllable feel. Despite this, it was considered a failure by many people against it's competitor, the MoYu WeiLong GTS3M since it was very fast and at times uncontrollable compared to the super-snappy and stable GTS3M.
In November 2018, it was debuted as the first ever cube in the GANINFINITY line.
===Gan 356R===
Released October 2018, along with the 356X. It is Gans first ever 'budget cube' but is still likely to be more of a mid-ranged cube retaling for about $15. It has been described as the 'GAN 356S V3' and even GAN themselves have called it the '356S Revival', however this cube now has the GES nuts system but retains the buttery smooth feel. However, without self-magnetizing it, the cube was essentially useless as the turning was very fast, just like the 354M. It's main competitor, the YJ MGC, far outstripped it due to it's more stable feel, was cheaper (at $12), and was factory-magnetized. As well as this, the YJ MGC V2 will debut a GES-like system and will retail at a similar price of $19. Despite this, the self-magnetized R was said to be 'the closest you can get to the 356X without speding $60' and since the X is usually considered the best 3x3, many people bought it just to magnetize it.

===Gan 356X===
Released October 2018 along with the 356R. This is the highly anticipated new flagship 3x3 from GAN with two revolutionary new features; the first ever magnet replacement system, GAN Magnetic System (GMS). This system allows you to change the magnet strength of the cube in the edges (i.e. not corners) to highly change the feel of your cube adding to GAN's philosophy of more customization. In a teaser video, GAN boasted that you could change the magnet strength in 30 seconds, a feature previously unimagined. The magnet options are strong, medium, weak and null (non-magnetic). The way you change the magnet strength is by simply missalligning the middle layer by about 45 degrees and simply pushing the magnetic rod through the visible magnet slot in the edges, replacing the one already inside. The second feature is the new GES+ which allows for tool-free tensioning somewhat like the MoYu Spring Compression System featured in the MoYu WeiLong GTS3 lineup. In the new GES, there are also only 4 colours of nut with Green pre-installed. The way this works it that on the nut there are four settings that are visible as numbers, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0, and these numbers mean how long the spring will be, not how tight the cube will be. So, the tightest setting, 0.6, compresses the spring to 0.6cm to make the cube tighter. The fourth setting simply says 0, and is to take the nut out. The puzzle retails as between $56 and $62 making it the most expensive non-limited edition cube ever released. This is largely due to the magnets adding on an extra ~$10. Despite the high price, most cubers consider it the best, quietest, and by far the smoothest cube you can buy. The cube is already the main of many cubers like [[Max Park]], [[Feliks Zemdegs]], [[Seung Hyuk-Nahm]], and [[Tanzer Balimtas]].

===Gan 356 Air Pro===
Released March 2019. The GAN 356 Air Pro is the third non-magnetized version of the Air SM (after the original Air S and Air S Master) with a design that prioritizes soft feel and light weight, and the unique honeycomb design on the pieces. This version, however, distinguishes itself by featuring the premium numerical IPG (and GES+), allowing you to tension the cube by hand without the need for tools - this is done by compressing the spring incramentally in 4 strengths. This is only the second cube to use it after the 356X, making this a cheaper (but still nowhere near budget) way to use the innovations in a $60 cube in a $35 package. The Air Pro follows the same design language as its predeseccors by getting a soft, fast, and crispy turning while reducing weight at the same time by removing magnets. It comes in the same GAN packaging with normal full-bright shades and the same 69g as on the Air S, compared to the 76g of the Air SM.

===Gan 356i===
Released July 2019. The Gan 356i is the latest in smart-cube technology. With full motion tracking and statistics on each solve such as turns per second, rotations, and move count, this puzzle is sure to help improve your times in a new, exciting way! Its complementary APP, Cube Station, lets you also battle your friends and other cubers worldwide! The cube itself features a brand new design with large internals and quick, crunchy feel. This cube definitely brings the best of both worlds between technology and performance. In addition, most everyone has described this cube's turning and performance as equivalent to the Gan 356X, Gan's flagship regular cube, making it by far the best smart cube you can buy in terms of performance, compared to the [[Giiker]] cubes and [[GoCube]]. One disadvantage is the short battery life, the worst out of these three previously mentioned cubes.
This cube is also compatible with the Gan Robot.

Available exclusively at TheCubicle.com in the United States.

Note: In order to charge the puzzle, you must place it in the charging port with the yellow side down. All other configurations will not work.

===Gan 356XS===
Expected release late 2019.

== 4x4 ==
=== Gan 460M ===
Released May 2018. Gans' only attempt at a 4x4, it features visible magnets and and the honeycomb design. It has had mixed reviews, with some switching to it over the GTS2M or WuQue M but many sticking with the latter options.

== Megaminx ==
=== GAN Megaminx ===
Expected release Summer 2019. The GAN megaminx has been teased by GAN and a few prototypes have been made. Two are the mains of Feliks Zemdegs and Max Park. It will compete with the X-Man Galaxy V2 M and the people who have felt one (scramblers at competitions) say it is very close to matching or has already matched the performance of the Galaxy line.
The cube has black internals and visible magnets, like the recent 356 releases, but also adds a concave dip in the pices, similar to the ridges on the X-Man Galaxy.

== Rubik's Speed ==
GAN has collaborated with Rubik's to make two speedcubes for the Red Bull World Cup. They feature many GAN elements as they were mostly designed by GAN, however they also have tiles. They are fairly average cubes, certainly not bad, but not top of the market. There are currently only a '''2x2''' and a '''3x3''', known as RSC2 and RSC3

== GANINFINITY==
The GANINFINITY line of speedcubes is a custom service where are nine options on a custom "menu" similar to the Cubicle Custom service and the options are as follows. The main idea is that these cubes are not 'flagships' but provide flagship features for people who like these uniquer cubes, generally with different sizes like the first GANINFINITY cube, the 354. The service has nine options that you can customize and the factory will produce your personalized speedcube on-demand. The line is designed to compete with on-demand custom cubes by stores, such as SpeedCubeShop or CubeDepot. As is expected with on-demand cubes, the prices skyrocket over the base cube. As well as the customization options, you can have four pre-customized options that are mass-produced if you want a good, pre-set-up speedcube without having to choose your options. These cubes aren't produced on-demand, and are similar to the Air UM Max Park Signature Edition, as they are essentially the base cube customized and set-up as the cubes' namesake wishes. Using an analogy, the customizable cubes are like Cubicle Custom and these are like Angstrom, Pro Shop, and Labs. Sidenote: Interestingly the colour scheme for GANINFINITY is orange compared to the standard blue - you recieve some cool bags and cards that are orange!
The customizable options are as follows:

• Firstly, you can choose between a stickered or stickerless cube

• [STICKERED ONLY] The colour of the OUTER plastic (i.e. NOT the internals, just the piece caps), if you choose a stickered cube, which you can choose between Black, White, White Jade, Red, Pink, and Blue. A notable omission is Stickerless, which GAN attributed to the difficulty of producing stickerless cubes with a custom colour scheme, however the last option lets you choose stickerless cubes from pre-selected shades.

• [STICKERED ONLY] After choosing the plastic colour for the stickered cubes, you can choose the stickers. The sticker options are the normal Gans shades, half-brights and full-brights, however you can now select full-fitted stickers (not that you would want to, but hey, more options) which have been unseen on a GAN cube since the notorious 357.

• [STICKERLESS ONLY] If you have chosen a stickerless cube, you may now pick the shades. As we have come to expect, there is a full-bright and half-bright option just like we have seen on the newest editions to the 356 lineup. Interestingly, with each of this you can pick a pink colour to replace the orange face, just like on old Eastsheen cubes.

• One of the most talked-about features of GANINFINITY is the ability to change the internals. Whilst on ALL previous GAN cubes, including stickerless, there are only black internals, while on Ganinfinity you can choose between SIX different colours, and you can be pretty adventurous with your cube - white, white jade, black, blue, pink, or red.

• A feature seen only seen on the X is different magnet options, however these are not interchangeable like in the GAN 356X. This is because you select one magnet option and you don't get the others. The magnetic options are standard; Clear 3*2, Yellow 3*1.8, and Green 3.16, however there is no magnetless option as we see in the GMS unit in the 356X, however regardless of what strength you choose the magnets will ship with clear capsules. Curiously, there are two different categories for corners and edges, assuming you want different strength in them.

• Another colour variation option here; you may change the colour of the magnet capsules. Unlike what you may have thought, these are not clear, yellow, and green like in GMS - instead they are clear (default), orange, and purple, just like a primary school Halloween disco!

• Next, you may select the core, which will change the GES nuts, and the options are the same as the GAN 356X; IPG v5 and Numerical IPG, which will allow you to change tensions hands-free, a feature only currently seen on the X.

• The GES Nuts are V5 or Numerical depending on your core choice and are as seen on the newest GES; Yellow 3.4N, Green 2.5N, Blue 2.1N, and Purple 1.8N. As in the magnet choice, and extra case with the remaining GES nuts is not shipped.

• A lubrication option is next with your standard GAN lubes, and no other lube options appliable as in custom cubes. Of course, this is because Gan is a manufacturer but it is a bit disappointing to have to apply your own lubes in these custom cubes.

===GANINFINITY 354M===
Released November 2018. The Gan 354M INFINITY is the first cube of the GANINFINITY series of custom cubes. The main idea is that this cube is literally a smaller 356X, with all the features you would expect from Gan's flagships at the small size and flexy feel that many speedcubers liked. The cube recieved a positive opinion from the community, with most people praising Gan for their innovativity and creativity in providing this unseen service at a reasonable price compared to it's biggest competitor, Cubicle Custom. As this was the first cube in the lineup, there are no special features, simply the standard customizability we see in GANINFINTY. In this cube, the non-customizable cubes are:

• Feliks Zemdegs Edition 354M

• Dana Yi Edition 354M

• Leo Borromeo Edition 354M

===GANINFINITY 356X===
Released September 2019. Literally just a 356X with the GANINFINITY customization features.

== Lubrication ==
===Gans Magic Lube===
The Gans Magic Lube was released in August 2017. It is a low-medium viscosity piece lubricant designed to be used in Gans puzzles.
===Gans Sticky Lube===
The Gans Sticky Lube is a fairly low-viscosity piece lubricant that is slightly thicker than the Gans Standard Lube that was released in June 2016.
===Gans Standard Lube===
The Gans Standard Lube is a low-viscosity piece lube released in August 2016.

== Other Products ==
===Gan Backpack===
The Gan Backpack is a high-quality backpack with a slot built to hold cubes with foam dividers between them. This was one of the first cubing backpacks to be released, and it originally retailed for $80.
===Gan Robot===
The Gan Robot is, as the name suggests, a cube solving robot that is compatible with the Gan 356i, though Gan has said it will soon be compatible with all 56mm cubes, either by releasing a new version or with an update. It solves the cube on it's own or can scramble it, the scrambler being the product's main function/feature. It retails for $95.
===Gan CFOP Notebook===
A squared notebook with dedicated pages to write down CFOP cases and algorithms and a template.
===Gan WR Cards===
Basically bookmark-type card things with the scramble, time and solver of the 4.73, 4.59, 4.22, and 3.47 3x3x3 world record singles.
===Gan T-shirt===
===Gan Pad===

'''YongJun''' (Chinese: 永骏, and often known as '''YJ''') are a [[China|Chinese]] toy manufacturer who make stacking cups, spinning pens, and cubes. They first came to prominence as the manufacturer of the '''Type D''' Cube around 2008, although they have produced many other models since then. Around 2012 they also created a separate sub-brand called [[MoYu]] as a production platform for third-party puzzle designers, which is why you can see a YJ logo on all MoYu boxes today.[https://www.speedsolving.com/forum/threads/yj-and-moyu-whats-the-relationship.45715/] The Yongjun Plastic Products Factory is located in Chenghai District, Shantou city, Guangdong Province, China. The company specializes in educational toys and puzzles.[http://www.etlong.com/company/abc885885/]

'''Type D''' cubes (also called GuoYou) were shipped fully assembled and [[sticker]]ed by [[Cube4You]]. The color scheme varied, but generally used either the [[Japanese color scheme]] or a mirrored version of the [[Western color scheme]]. The original stickers were generally not considered robust so Cube4You shipped a set of better stickers with each cube. Later Type D orders came stickered with better vinyl stickers in the Western color scheme. Type D cubes were comparable to [[Type A]] cubes, with decent corner-cutting and a reputation for popping less often than Type A cubes. Some people replaced the Type D [[core]] with a Type A core, or built a hybrid of this cube with [[Type C]] [[cubie]]s.
[[Image:Type-d.jpg|none|thumb|Type-D I Cube]]

=== Different Types ===
There were two different types of Type-D cubes. Generation one Type-D's came in many different colors: Pink, Green and Black and White. The generation 2 Type-D's, also known as Type-D II were white. The stickers that come with the Type-D II were somewhat textured and did not peel off easily. The spinning was thought smooth, with rare lock-ups, good corner-cutting, but sometimes popping if spinning too violently. Each [[cubie]] is fully closed and has caps that rarely fall off. There were many types of YJ D-II type cubes produced such as the Finhop 3x3 and the crazy foot cube. All had similar performance.

== 2x2x2 ==
=== YJ 2x2 ===
Available c. 2010, this cube was a [[GhostHand]] clone. It had a very similar plastic shape, but the YJ came with tiles like the [[YuXin]] 2x2 (an [[East Sheen]] clone). The YJ 2x2 turned similar to an East Sheen, which was very fast, and almost uncontrollable. Unlike the Eastsheen, this cube had a screw/spring structure which helped a bit with corner cutting. Turning out of box was not very good, but after a few hundred solves the cube turned smoothly. The size is the typical 50mm x 50mm. This cube was much cheaper than the GhostHand on lightake.
[[Image:YJ 2x2.jpg|none|thumb|The YJ 2x2 Glow in the Dark]]

=== YJ YuPo 2x2 ===
Released October 2015. The YuPo was the first cube in YJ's line of Yu-budget cubes. Out of the box, it was very tight, however after loosening it and lubricating the cube would become very fast. Due to the unique 'divided edge' pops were almost non-existent on this cube, making it a very reliable, fast, and smooth budget cube. However, the major critique of this cube was the plastic quality, which made the the white variant of the YuPo sound very crunchy, while in the black version it was just smooth, no crunchiness. This cube retailed at $8 originally but it is now $6.

=== YJ GuanPo 2x2 ===
Released March 2016 as part of the 'Guan' line of cubes. The GuanPo had a very unique feel compared to other 2x2s, which provided for a controversial opinion by cubers. Although never setting any records, it was a beginner cube. According to some, it felt like a LingPo mixed with a Dayan; super smooth, spectacular corner-utting, but also a subtle crunchy feel. Later, a cube called the '''GuanPo Plus''' was released which premiered a redesigned edge.

=== YJ MGC 2x2 ===
Released August 2018. The MGC 2x2 is the second cube in the MGC line of flagship cubes, and the first to have a stickerless option. It was praised for the strong magnets and fast feel. Just like the previous YJ 2x2s, it was buttery smooth after lubrication, but sandy before. At $10, many still considered it the best 2x2s , even over the premium WeiPos, however a frequent complaint was corner-twisting. At about one in 300 solves, this was much higher than many other 2x2s. Although this could be fixed with tensioning, it would become pretty useless at a high tension.

=== YJ RuiPo ===
Released October 2018 as part of the 'Rui' line of budget cubes. The RuiPo features a quick, light, and slightly crunchy feel, which has been previously unseen in YJ 2x2s. It features a higher quality plastic that the GuanPo making it easier to handle and turn. It is seen as very similar to the Qiyi Qidi S, however is slightly more expensive at $5.

== 3x3x3 ==
=== YJ SuLong ===
Released October 2013. Considered a good budget cube, with a unique light, smooth, and crispy feel and had very good corner-cutting for the time, at 45 degrees standard and 3/4 piece reverse. It turned well, but noticeably slower than equivalent MoYu or Dayan cubes. It only popped on very loose tensions. Considered a very 'safe' first cube for YJ at the time, unlike the MoYu cubes produced at the time. Although it was relatively popular, it never became a top speedcube. It was uniquely offered as a glow in the dark cube which made up a large chunk of the sales.
=== YJ ChiLong ===
Released November 2013. The ChiLong is very similar to the SuLong, except it has extra grooves on the corners and edges. It is slightly faster than the SuLong. The SuLong was usually cheaper, so probably better value-for-money.
=== YJ YuLong ===
Released December 2013. The mechanism was largely adapted from the ChiLong but with some slight changes that looked more like a modern speedcube, and less like an old budget cube, however the edges looked very basic as seen on the ChiLong. Sometimes bore the [[MoYu]] logo. A budget cube with a light, crunchy feel. The edges pop & the corners twist fairly easily when set up loose. The pieces of the stickerless version are pressed together without glue, and can fall apart when they pop out. Noteably, the cube was YJ's first stickerless cube however it also came in white, black, and primary. As well as this, it came in a very unique transparent stickerless with visible internals, and also in 'Phantom Stickers' - Carbon Fiber.
=== YJ GuanLong ===
Released October 2014. The YJ GuanLong was a popular [[budget cubes|budget cube]] from YJ. It featured a simple, blocky mechanism and was popular for modding. Although YJ intended for it to be ajn ultra-chep, ultra-lightweight speedcube, it was rarely ever used for speedcubing, except by beginners. It's primary use was for modding, due to it's favourable mechanism and lack of many grooves, and this made it rival the Qiyi Sail.
Due to it's low price, a meme was started on the /r/cubers subreddit about how 'everybody has a couple of Guanlongs laying around!'
YJ would later release the '''YJ Guanlong V2''' also known as the YJ Guanlong Plus, and later the '''YJ Guanlong V3'''
=== YJ MGC ===
Released May 2018, supposedly after 3 years of design and improvement, it is only available in magnetic, black and white. The MGC comes at a slightly-smaller-than-usual size of 55mm and features a strong magnetic positioning system, primary internals, and stellar all-around performance. The MGC has a smooth, bubbly feel and delivers many qualities typically attributed to flagship cubes at an economical price of $12. The plastic feel was very unique due to the primary internals, feeling very unique compared to previous YJ flagships. All of this combined achieves a smooth, tactile feel. It has also been described as a faster, magnetic YueXiao Pro. It's main rival is emerging to be the GAN356R, which it completely outstrips. It is the only decent budget magnetic cube. Unusually, the cube only comes in black plastic.
The cube has been described as a so-call "school cube" since it is one of the quietest, muted speedcubes you will ever hear, even rivaling the GAN 356X in terms of volume.
=== YJ RuiLong ===
Relesed October 2018 as part of the 'Rui' line of budget cubes. The RuiLong is insanely fast, sturdy, with a clicky feel and features similar design motifs as the classic MoYu AoLong v2 cube, however it is almost uncontrollable.
=== YJ MGC V2 ===
Released November 2018. At $20, the MGC V2 is the undoubtedly the best value for money 3x3 that is currently available and offers customization which make the MGC V2 even more appealing than the original MGC. The flagship feature by YJ is a new spring system which is very similar to the Gans Elasticity System - three spring options are available - Light (Yellow), Medium (pre-installed), and Strong (Blue) - that will change the flexibility and overall feel of your cube, just like GES in Gan cubes. Medium strength magnets are installed by YJ which are slightly lighter than we have seen in the MGC. The turning on the MGC is very similar to the original; buttery smooth, fast, controllable, and very quiet. Just like on the original MGC, we see primary plastic internals however the black externals extend a bit further into the piece on the V2. A feature previously unseen on the MGC is a stickerless variant. A frequent compalint about the MGC was that it was limited to black plastic, however YJ have now added a stickerless option.
The stickers on the YJ MGC V2 have been designed in a collaboration with [[SpeedCubeShop]] and have been chosen by [[Cameron Brown]] and are the very vibrant SCS full-bright shades, and are also cut by Speedcubeshop.
=== YJ JinJiao ===
Released December 2018. The YJ JinJiao is an interesting, non-comp-legal 3x3 which has a strange concaveness, the corneres spiking out from the rest of the cube, somehat like the Superfloppy Fidget Spinners. Due to the ergonomics of having a 3x3 that could peirce a heart, this cube is more of a collection piece than anything else.
=== Tiled Cubes ===
==== YJ LingGan ====
A 3x3 cube with circular tiles embedded into the pieces
==== YJ Diamond Cube ====
The Diamond Cube features diamond-like shaped tiles on the pieces in place of stickers.
==== YJ Love Cube ====
The Love Cube features heart-shaped tiles on the pieces in place of stickers.
==== YJ Spade Cube ====
The Spade Cube features spade-shaped tiles on the pieces in place of stickers.

== 4x4x4 ==
=== YJ ShenSu 4x4 ===
Released June 2013. This 4x4 was simply horrible, rivaling the [[Rubik's Revenge]]... if you like 4x4s that are stiffer than a brick, then the YJ ShenSu is for you. Out of the box, cubers described the inner layers as... not perfect - stiff and clacky. The outer layers also leave something to be desired as they have a strange feeling that's a mix between smooth and clicky.
=== YJ YuSu 4x4 ===
Released July 2015. The YuSu was described as being a good, smooth 4x4, but it had one downside: popping, specifically, exploding popping. The inner edges would pop seemingly at random, and due to being very loose out of the box, it could simply explode at your first turn, which happened to some people.
=== YJ GuanSu 4x4 ===
Released January 2016. The GuanSu was practically a YuSu, but it didn't pop. With a smooth, fast, and clacky feel. At $8, it was a great budget 4x4, but was overshadowed by the QiYi Thunderclap Mini, which is considered the best budget 4x4 in the market.
=== YJ YuSu R 4x4 ===
Released April 2016. The YJ YuSu R 4x4 is the updated version of the YJ YuSu 4x4, which seeks to improve upon the performance of the YJ YuSu and YJ GuanSu 4x4 by combining the best aspects of the 2 predecessors. It is also available in Transparent Stickerless, which was previously not available on the YuSu or GuanSu. Despite it seeking to improve on the GuanSu, it was discontinued by YJ in 2017 while the Guansu is still available.
=== YJ RuiSu 4x4 ===
Released October 2018. The RuiSu is a relatively quick cube with a clean and slightly crunchy turn. The feel is similar to older MoYu 4x4s, such as the original AoSu. It is considered the only good 4x4 YJ have released thus far.

== 5x5x5 ==
=== YJ 5x5 ===
The original YJ 5x5. Also came in a smaller size. Not much known about it, however it was said to be smooth out of the box but got stiffer with solves.
=== YJ YuChuang 5x5 ===
Released April 2016. Out of the box this cube was said to be a bit tight and felt pretty stiff, just like the original YJ 5x5, since they had the same bulky core. After a bit of tensioning that was fixed. This puzzle has a very smooth feeling and flows well however it's biggest issue is the catches and lockups, seemingly at random no matter how lightly you turn, this puzzle catches more than any 5x5 since 2014. Corner-cutting is average for a 5x5, it gets that annoying typical 5x5 lockup we see on almost every 5x5 due to it's design. Reverse corner-cutting is non existent.
=== YJ GuanChuang 5x5 ===
Released December 2018. The YJ GuanChuang 5x5 is the new and updated version of the YJ YuChuang. This cube is very smooth right out of the box. It is very light and slightly smaller compared to other 5x5s, at 62mm which is the standard 4x4 size. However, when turning through multiple layers it tends to lock up pretty bad and can be a little difficult to realign the layers but it shouldn’t lock up if you aren’t too rough with it. Overall this puzzle is great for solvers who are new to 5x5 but is less ideal for more experienced solvers.
=== YJ RuiChuang ===
Relesed October 2018 as part of the 'Rui' line of budget cubes. The RuiChuang has moderately quick speed, a bubbly feel, and narrowed outer layers.

== 6x6x6 ==
=== YJ 6x6 ===
Released August 2013. The original 6x6 by YJ, however we can safely assume it wasn't very good. This cube was awful, arguably worse than a [[VCube]]. It had no curner-cutting whatsoever, and locked up pretty much all the time. It advertised textured stickers for better grip, almost like Carbon-Fiber stickers - however this was basically a lie. There is nothing special about the stickers.
===YJ GuanShi 6x6 and YJ YuShi 6x6===
Released around the same time in April 2017. The GuanShi is a stickered cube, whereas the YuShi comes in stickerless plastic.
The GuanShi was certainly a beginner speedcube, and moving on from a VCube. Coming in at $15, it is very cheap for a 6x6. However, the cube is almost impossible to speedcube - when it was released, people complained it would barely turn. Also, this cube has zero corner cutting and I mean zero. If the cube isn't perfectly aligned it just won't turn. This doesn't mean that the turning is bad, but its hard to start the turn. As well as this, some complained of a popping problem but not all. The most common complaint is that changing the stock tensions would automatically ruin the cube, and you could not change it back easily. It would either be way too tight, and the plastic would rub together, or it would pop if trying to speedsolve at all. Despite this, the GuanShi sold fairly well as a cube for people learning 6x6 and big cubes. The YuShi was very similar to the GuanShi. Having a very similar mechanism and pieces, they felt very similar. However due to a slight piece redesign, the YuShi was considered slightly better.
=== YJ RuiShi ===
Relesed October 2018 as part of the 'Rui' line of budget cubes. The RuiShi is one of the cheapest 6x6s, coming in at $14. A fast turner, it is YJ's first good 6x6. It is good, fast, and stable and does not deform in your hands like some faster 6x6s. The pieces had large ridges that have been unseen on 6x6s and have been implemented by YJ to add to the stable feel of the cube.

== 7x7x7 ==
=== YJ 7x7 ===
=== YJ GuanFu 7x7 and YJ YuFu 7x7 ===
The GuanFu and YuFu were released at the same time in January 2017. They use the same mechanism, but the GuanFu comes in black or white plastic with stickers while the YuFu comes in stickerless plastic.
=== YJ RuiFu ===
Relesed October 2018 as part of the 'Rui' line of budget cubes.
