Update: 6 months in my Rubik's connected gets more time with my wife than me. She, used it to learn to solve the cube, adores the cube. Which now has stickers from the cubicle to replace the manufacturer original. I do still enjoy solving on the cube and it's one of my travel cube. It works really well with Cubeast (which works with almost all smart cubes) and helps get better breakdowns on solves. With this cube, I can see where I need to work on my solves with either the native app or Cubeast. I still highly recommend this cube. I've only had to clean and reapply lube a couple times. As a basis for this review I want to start with my cubing experience. I've been working on cubing and speedcubing for the past 2 years (for the cubers out there I am PB is 14.31 using stackmat timer). I didn't buy this for any other reason than bluetooth cubes are fun to have. I have a Gocube, Giiker, and Gan, smartcube and will be reviewing this product from a comparative approach. The Rubik's connected cube is a fun cube to have in your collection. It turns well and the cube has decent corner cutting and strong magnets. Pros: - Magnetized (a bit strong for my liking but its within reason) - Corner cutting at about 45 degrees and 35 degrees reverse corner cutting - Sticker base colors are the standard Rubiks color scheme (some kind of half-bright mixture) - Quality plastic Cons: - Terrible stickers (go get some at the cubicle for some quality stickers) - Cube is loose with not adjustment system and pops and corner twists can happen (but rarely) - Weight (its not horrible but its one of the heavier smart cubes I own) Moving on to the App, I will only be doing this from a comparative stance: - Best native app for cubing with few connectivity or app bugs - Games are interesting, not the best for learning in a fun way in my opinion (Giiker games are better for learning, but not as much fun) - Academy great for beginners but lacking in speedcuber method teaching advance techniques (Gan is better at that if you are willing to put in what you need) - Closest app to getting slice rotations correctly (all of the apps have this issue to some degree but I find that the barebones method to not try to figure it out that this app as well as the gocube app approach this situation is best. Move counts will be wrong but it doesn't try to guess what you did. - Wide moves are not picked up but it won't ruin your move count because it reads it as the opposite move (r is read as L) and then the rest of your moves record a bit weird. All in all, the app is definitely the best app on the market for beginners. Heck, my wife stole the cube because she loves the app and cube combo. Comparing the cube to other smartcubes. - More normal shape than the gocube's pillowed mess - Less lockups then the Gan cubes (seriously, I can't get those working well for me) - Quiter and less lock ups than the giiker cube I would recommend this cube to anyone from beginner to pro, it is absolutely fun to have and a quick easy way to compete. Finally, the coup de grace to the other cubes on the market. Particula, the manufacturer, is getting a special shout out here. My cube came in with a manufacturer defect. I know these things happen and I'm not in anyway dinging them for that. I am instead making a special shout out to customer service team and their outright dedication to their customers. So here is the situation, my cube came in and one center was turning slowly, and sometimes would let the edges and corners turn around it as it didn't move. So I reached out to Particula. Their response was almost immediate and with genuine concern. They were upset that a cube made it out that was less than perfect. They had me wear in the cube a bit to see if it went away, when I forgot to email them back, they reached out to me to check in. The issue was better but still occurring. I was sent a label and before I even dropped my cube off, they had already shipped out a new cube to me. Their customer service was the service of legends reaching above and beyond my expectations. Which is actually par for the course for them. When my gocube had an issue, they took it in and fixed it no questions asked. The best reason to by this cube over its competitors is the customer service alone. If you have any issues they will go out of their way to help you. Seriously, they are a spectacular company and I couldn't speak more highly of them.

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2021 by Brian A. Skeats
Background: During Covid I was bored and decided to learn the cube. Since then I've got pretty good but the original cube I bought didn't cut corners very well and would cause me to over shoot my turns sometimes. Currently my personal best time is 1:19 and I've been trying to find a cube that would help me get under a minute. Every time I buy an expensive "Speed Cube" that is recomended on all the YouTube Channels or websites I'm just disappointed. The problem with the ones I've tried is they are so "fast", or in my novice vocabulary loose, that I ened up spinning them in directions I don't want to when doing other moves. I'm sure this has something to do with my skill level, but I'd like something that will help me were I'm at. I've bought 4 different ones and even tried the ones with different tension settings and magnets as well as tightening them with a screwdriver. In addition, I've also been using a separate app to time myself. You have to go from using the cube to pushing the button on your phone screen and sometimes you don't hit the screen right and a few more seconds are added. Pros: I bought this cube because I thought it was cool that the app was directely linked to the cube and some of the reviews mentioned how snappy it was to it's positioning. HOLY COW, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. It snaps right into it's position really well and over shooting is not an issue at all. It also cuts the corners very well and having the app do the time for me is way better than what I was doing in the past. I'm super stoked I decided to give this one a try and it will be the primary cube from now on. I'm also buying one as a gift. Cons: The box doesn't really come with any documentation so I had to look on the Amazon questions here to figure out there is a light under the middle white Rubiks cube sticker that lights up to let you know you are charging. Then you have to download the app to see how charged it is. Other than that, it was pretty self explanitory....it's just a rubiks cube. The only other thing I can say, which is my biggest complaint is that the color of the Orange and Yellow is a little too similar. My other cube definitely has a way better contrast than this one. I would imagine after using it for awhile I'll get used to it, but initially it's a little confusing when I'm trying to be fast. If I don't get used to it, I'll just buy some different stickers or maybe just cut some orange ones out with my cricut. I heard TheCubicle.com are really good. I'll update this, if I end up buying some of those. Other: Since I already know the beginner method or what some may call the White Cross or the layered method I didn't use the app to learn. However, I originally just learned the algorythms and never learned the official way to read cube moves. For those that don't know what I'm talking about, they have a letter like U or U' (U prime). This letter tells you to move the top of the cube clockwise (U) or counter-clockwise (U'). Since I started using the other app to time myself I started teaching myself to read moves like this so I could use their scramble code instead of just mixing it up on my own all willy nilly. With all that being said, the way the Rubiks Connected app shows the cube while I'm scrambling and shows me when I mess up is very clear and easy to understand. With that in mind, I can say that if you were using this to teach yourself how to cube I think it would be extremely helpful.
