GoCubeEdge, The Connected Electronic Bluetooth Cube - Award-Winning 3x3 Magnetic Speed Cube - App Enabled Interactive Smart Cube - Best Gift for Kids & Adults - STEM Brain Teaser Puzzles - Free App

SO happy with this purchase! My son and I randomly bought a Rubik's cube and I decided to try and learn to solve it properly. I started with YouTube videos and was able to solve the first 2 layers within the first week, but found it difficult to remember the rest of the steps and algorithms. I already knew I wanted to get a smoother moving cube, and thought maybe there is one with an app that could help make learning the rest easier. When I saw GoCube, I knew I had to try it out, and I'm so glad I did!This thing is as smooth as butter! I'm no pro cuber, obviously, but the magnets make such a difference. The overall look is super sleek, as well. The app is the biggest highlight for me. The "Academy" section of the app was great for learning. They break up each step and include short videos. I was able to learn a better way to do what I already knew, and it made learning and remembering the algorithms so much easier. I was solving the cube repeatedly on my own in less than a week. Now that I have mastered solving the cube, I am working on bringing down my solve time. I can time my solves with the app, which works great! The timer starts on its own once you make your first move, and stops as soon as the cube is solved. There are a handful of different games you can play on the app, and you can compete with other cubers around the world in different skill levels. I was a little worried there may not be enough users to quickly get matched with other people, but that hasn't been an issue at all. The app also tracks your stats, so you can see your personal best times, number of moves, wins/losses, and more. My 10yo son has learned to solve using the app, with a little extra help from mom, and now he's solving just as quickly as me and begging for his own GoCube! Lol!The only complaints I have is that the positioning of the cube on the app can be finicky, which can be a pain in the butt, mostly just when your in the "Academy" section trying to learn. I also have to plug-in which color cubes are where from time to time, as it can get a little scrambled once in a while. Not a big deal though. I do wish the "Academy" went into further lessons once you've mastered the solve. Like how to solve with fewer moves and different finger tricks and what not. And I definitely wish GoCube had more cubes! I'd like to move on to the 4x4, 5x5, pyraminx, skewb, etc, and it would be so nice to learn with their app. Hopefully, those are to come!

This product is amazing. Not in the slightest is there a single flaw. Never seen anything like it. I got it just day before yesterday, and I've spent about two hours on it. Let's focus on the beforehand, when you are just buying it. The shipping is great, it comes with air pillows to make sure it doesn't get damaged while delivery, and it shipped amazingly fast (four days). (I chose the "free shipping" option WITHOUT amazon prime) When you do get it, the packaging is phenomenal and intuitive to find out where everything is. Very easy to set up. All you need to do is download the FREE app, compatible on ANY device (I don't recommend computer!) But try mobile devices instead. (I use iPad because it has a big screen) Phone works well too. It's good for any level of cubers, whether you're an intermediate, beginner, or pro. I say this because there is literally a system of teaching the beginner method of the cube. (I already know how to solve the cube but I decided to try it out anyway.) If you are a bit more advanced, solve the cube in less than 30 seconds to unlock a hard mode. By hard mode I mean that there is a literal way to compete against other gocube users around the globe! That brings me to the phrase "hard mode." It's a matchmaking system that tests out your abilities. Solving the cube in less than a certain amount of time will unlock another mode. For example, if you need a bit more of a challenge, solve the cube in less than 30 seconds to unlock a mode where only more advanced cubers will be able to join and compete with you. There are leaderboards not only for solving the cube fast, but also for scrambling fast as well. Aside from going multiplayer, there are singleplayer things you can do in the app, such as games that make you a better cuber and are very fun. If that wasn't enough, the rotations you do on the cube literally show up on the screen in the app. Furthermore, there aren't any in-app purchases, and neither are there any ads whatsoever. The only things you have to do to start up the cube when you first get on the app is to choose the cube around you (the app scans for gocubes nearby you with bluetooth) and sign in! I definitely recommend if you have a passion for learning or showing off some skill on cubing. One last thing to make sure you don't do is to not rotate the cube until you are fully into the app. If you do move it by accident, it's completely fine though, but it will waste about five minutes of your time.TLDR: designed for any level of cubers, exceptionally intuitive to use, and overall is loads of fun! Definitely recommend as a gift for absolutely anyone!
