MoreTry TianMa X3+ 3x3 (32-Magnet Ball-Core + MagLev SAOCube SE)

I don't know why more people aren't talking about this cube, but it is probably one of the best 3x3s on the market, and it is only $24.99. I would highly recommend people who like fast cubes to get this one.

I mean really snappy. On it's loosest settings and with a thinner lube, this cube will auto-align from basically any position other than 45 degrees.

In my opinion, the aggressive auto-alignment holds this cube back. However, you're looking at a 32 magnet ballcore with repelling edge-core magnets, so it should be expected. I just didn't expect the magnetic alignment to be quite as strong as it is.

I've been maining a GuHong Pro+ MagLev since early March, and I like how snappy it can feel when it's corner-core magnets are set to their strongest settings. I keep it loose and use thing lubes, and it will auto-align from about 30 degrees, and presents some amount of initial turning resistance. Overcoming that initial resistance is usually enough to give a layer the momentum to continue until the magnets pull it into alignment at the end of the turn. You can go fast with it while using a lighter touch.

That doesn't really work here with the 32M. You either need to turn harder, or otherwise physically push the layer passed the halfway point of a turn, because halfway is when you overcome the resistance, otherwise it will be pulled back to it's starting position, meaning you don't actually do a turn of the layer. With almost enough force, layers might get stuck at 45 degrees as the magnets try to pull it back to it's starting position, which can lead to a lot of lock ups when you're trying to go fast.

You can tighten up the tension or center travel, or use thicker lubes to try to impede the auto-alignment, but that just results in needing to turn harder to get turns to complete.

Otherwise, the cube has pretty low friction resistance and turns feel very smooth yet tactile. It has a soft or hollow clackiness to it that tends to get lost in or blend into other background noise. It is not a bad cube. I do enjoy using it, but I just wish it wasn't as snappy as it is. I might just go ahead and get the 8M version or otherwise try to mod this cube to weaken the auto-alignment.

One reason I bought the cube was because of the inclusion of the black face pieces. I kept getting yellow and orange mixed up in lower light conditions with my other cubes, and replacing yellow with black essentially fixed that. The black pieces are a tighter fit than the pieces already on the cube, so be prepared to use a decent amount of force when putting them on. I've seen a couple other people complaining about the magnets making clicking noises or fitting loosely. If you have that problem, it just means you haven't pressed the pieces together enough. Again, the black pieces are a tighter fit than the others. The plastic feels very sturdy, though, so put a decent amount of force into pressing them together.

Great flexibility, amazing stability with the magnetic core. Great corner cutting, but it might needs slowing down our of the box! Amazing cube though and is Main worthy

Out of the box, the cube was blisteringly fast and uncontrollable, and had a relatively cheap and blocky feel. However, with some tightening, tensioning, and angstrom lube, the problems have been mostly mitigated. The magnets are a great strength, the glossy plastic is great - i prefer it over standard UV coating. My only isssue was replacing the yellow for the black pieces: i found the best strategy was to put the pieces almost flush together, then slip in the magnets, then to close it. For 25$, this cube is an absolute steal.

Maglev makes it perfect for a main and the black tiles make a perfect cube for recognition. Wish they sold the caps separately along with other companies implementing.

it has pretty strong autoalignment, very fast and smooth feel, unique features like 2 edge magnets (1 repelling and 1 attracting) in the ballcore. works well with fz calm. however it can be too fast and loose out of the box for some. overall another great job done by the cubicle!
