    I have them the other way around: UV coated Gan 11 and frosted Gan 12 Leap. I like them both actually, and I keep returning to them from the other cubes because I just enjoy that build quality. I really want Moyu to put some more work in that: get rid of those sink marks and make the part seams really tight. My WRM Maglev - which I also like a lot - has gaps in all the edges and one faulty magnet.
    I perform the same on basically any current cube from RS3M 2020 to Gan 12. So it all comes down to the feel/look performance. I don't like Gan 11 or 12 for slow solves, but they are great for fast turning. So stable and fast. I lock up very rarely, probably because I'm used to very fast cubes and light turning, so I just don't hold the cube too tight, and it aligns itself and stays aligned really easily.

    I have the Gan 11 M Pro and a limited edition of the same. They mostly sit on the shelf for reasons you showed. I also have the WRM maglev and RS3M Maglev with extra magnets added to the latter. Both are excellent but for me the WRM would be perfect if they made it in a 56mm version with a super glossy UV coating and with either a stronger magnet setting or ability to add extra magnets. The RS3M with extra magnets feels great, though doesn't feel as engineered or float as well as the WRM. It's hard to choose between them but that 1mm makes a big difference when I'm solving to me so the RS3M is my go to cube :).

    • @CrimsonsCubes
      @CrimsonsCubes  Před 2 lety +1

      i actually think pvc coating would solve the problems of surface texture and size on your wrm maglev. pvc coating makes the surface of the cube much grippier, and the exoshield overlays are roughly half a millimeter thick which would put the wrm maglev at 56mm. pvc coating _is_ pretty expensive, a pvc coated wrm maglev would likely cost around $50 total, although that’s still $30 cheaper than the gan 12. as for the magnet strength, yeah moyu really should’ve put stronger magnets in it, and unfortunately aside from completely disassembling the cube and swapping the magnets in the capsules, nothing can reasonably be done about that

    I have the GAN 12 Maglev, and it’s a really good cube, it’s really only for people who have lighter turning, which is me, and if you do not care about the price, go for it, but if you have more aggressive turning, go for these cubes: WR M 2021, WR M 2020 WR M 2021 Maglev, RS3M 2020, RS3M 2021 Maglev.
    These cubes are more forgiving for their turning, and they are no where near as much as the gan cubes, also I previously mained the GAN 11 M Pro and I noticed that it catches more, I think that is because I got a bad 11 M Pro and a good GAN 12, because my 11 can’t even cut 45 degrees, like crimsons XS, but my GAN 12 can cut over 45 degrees, so yes I do think it is like a reroll for getting a good GAN cube.
    In conclusion, if you do not care about the price and if you have light turning, go for the GAN 12, but if you care about the price, go for the cubes above.

    I recently got the 11m duo during black Friday for 20 bucks.
    I think my main issue is that it is too light for the magnet strength it has. If the pieces had more weight to them, it would probably not feel as bad to start a turn, but currently, the magnets feels very jarring.
    When I do a long session on it I see why people like it, it has a very characteristic feel! But thats not enough imo. I wish I could lower the magnet strength but if like you say there's barely a difference I won't feel bad about having the duo haha.

  • @vali69
    @vali69 Před rokem +2

    I got a gan 12 as a cube to get back into the hobby since abandoning it more than 9 years ago when I bought a 15 dollar speedcube that I think was best at the time. At that time I basically left after getting the beginner method down and learning basic f2l. Now I decided to get back into the hobby and learn cfop properly and stick around, try to inprove slowly over time and get different kinds of cubes since I never touched anything besides the 3x3 and 2x2. So to celebrate this I decided to get the best of the best and, after some research here on youtube the gan 12 seemed to be my best bet since it has cool innovations and features and whatnot. Personally I think the cube is really great, it doesn't lock at all compared to my old non magnetic speedcube that feels extremely sluggish now after using the gan 12 for two days. And it made learning full pll, the part where I'm at right now, really fun. Like I absolutely love doing the T and F perms on it. Now I jeed to just get N V Y R and G down and I'm good to go. The cube is really fun but I do hope gan will lower their prices down tho with future releases since it seems every other cheaper cube does the same thing as them so at some point no one's gonna buy anything from them. When I finish learning full oll and get more advanced with the cross and f2l and start getting faster I might opt to get something different like the wrm maglev if I don't like the gan 12 anymore.

    • @CrimsonsCubes
      @CrimsonsCubes  Před rokem +1

      it’s always great to see people getting back into cubing! you’re right, the gan 12 is far better than an old cube (im assuming the dayan zhanchi), but so is just about every other cube on the market now. i made this video to prevent this exact thing since new people getting into (or back into) cubing can get led down a path where they are led to believe that this cube is the best one just because it’s the most expensive when it really isn’t, and the same results can be achieved on much cheaper cubes. i just went to a cubing competition this weekend and 2 of the 3 cubers on the podium used the rs3m 2020 which is $9. i talked to them about it and they have plenty of other cubes to choose from, it’s just their choice to use that cube because it suits them

    uv coated gan cubes have worst reverse corner cutting than regular frosted gan cubes because of the extra layer of uv coating. (I tested this with the frosted and uv coated 11 m pros) The uv coating just adds durability but lessens the actual performance by a small but noticeable margin. So, based on my aggressive turning style, I'd buy the frosted 12 maglev instead of the uv coated one or the leap because the leap has a little more friction because of the springs.
    Edit: The uv coated gan cubes also are less grippy and sweat/lube gets stuck onto the cubes surface makes it even more difficult to turn because of the extra slippery surface.

    • @CrimsonsCubes
      @CrimsonsCubes  Před 2 lety

      a lot of people agree with you, but a lot of people would disagree. i think it’s important to separate opinions from facts, since a lot of people prefer lighter cubes and/or don’t like the feel of gan cubes. also, gan’s honeycomb design doesn’t contribute very much to the cube overall, it just helps lube last longer and spread around easier. moyu _does_ have textured pieces on the wrm 2020 and 2021 though. also from what you’re saying here i think you should try the wrm 2021 maglev. it’s on the heavier side (although not as heavy as the wrm 2019), and the hand feel is actually pretty similar to a gan cube.

    @BigPapaCJ Před 2 lety +3

    I have a theory on why every Gan cube that released after the XS has been awful (minus the 11 which is still decent in my opinion.)
    I think the main issue is the plastic core. It’s a lot less sturdy than the core from the X and the Air series. This results in the core being more flexible, which might cause some sort of corner cutting issue. Along with this, the Gan springs are overly loose and compressing them does basically nothing for stability. Align with this, the plastic is incredibly thin to the point it breaks after only a couple months, especially on the center caps pieces. (Similar to the Guhong v4)

    • @franciscofont2194

    I'm in love with my Custom Gan11m Pro UV coated with Black Internals. I had most of 3x3 and to me Gan11M pro has no competition. I'm skipping 12 maglev cos I don't like white internals

    This video is true about the price (at least for me ) but not for the performance. I have the 12 but it never catches like yours and can corner cut just fine if I adjust it. However, this video might be true since my friend's 11m pro locks up more than my 12 and I might have gotten really lucky and gotten one that can corner cut but almost all of your statements about gan are very true. MoYu is the new best brand now that the super RS3Ms have come out. But I still believe the 13 Maglev will still sell well but sooner or later Gan cubes will stop selling. Sorry for my bad English.

    I have about thirty magnetic 3x3 and Gan are some of the worst ones ! My 356i v1 was not bad but an axis broke while I was cleaning the core, then I bought the iCarry and it turned off 2 weeks later and never woke up again (even with several new batteries) , and my last one the gan 354M v2 is correct but with plastic axis too and a very sticky fell... Moyu cubes are incredible from cheap to flagship I love them ! Also yuxin, qiyi, dayan and d-shen have some interesting texture and color schemes, and they offer a different feeling too, so I'll never buy a Gan again, way too expensive and fragile, useless !

    Can you give me a small review about the gan xs?
    I was about to buy it and my friends tried to stop me from buying it, btw im sub 20

    • @CrimsonsCubes
      @CrimsonsCubes  Před 2 lety +1

      the gan xs is probably my favorite gan flagship, but i still don’t recommend it. it doesn’t explode like the 11 and 12 do, but it has the poor quality control and locks up. if you still wanna get it though, the gan air M is the same as the xs but without adjustable magnets which if you’re willing to make that tradeoff, is good. however the xs itself isn’t as much of a hard “no” as the 11 and 12

  • @ehrengross
    @ehrengross Před 2 lety +2

    I think gans peak was the gan 356 x. Even though it was expensive, it was still pretty much the best cube on the market. But now gan is super overpriced and worse than MoYu or x man cubes

  • @X3N1T0R
    @X3N1T0R Před 9 měsíci

    I like that im able to adjust everything very well to what i prefer because if i dont like something a little bit and im not able to is just just a no for me. Also you seemed a bit biasad (no offense) because you didnt like gan cuibes before but i think your not optimally using the magnet settings and it seemed you were going a bit more aggresive on the gan cube but ofcourse when you are used to something else it will always feel kinda kinda better
    But still for the price I really dont get it why like the corner cutting isnt the greatest its better on the 13 but for me the 12 feels smoohter to turn for some reason. Thats why i still prefer the tornado for its price but i defiintely dont dislike the gan cubes
