Been using the same Rubik's Revenge that I got as a kid in 1982. It was broken in (or so I thought), so I never upgraded. It got to where my old cube started falling apart with every turn, so I bought a newer Rubik's brand tiled cube and it is just terrible. Turning on one side forces the other side to turn, which doesn't allow any type of fun or quick solves. I decided to replace a lot (most) of my old puzzles and went with the "MoYu AoSu 4x4 WR M" based on the reviews here and I am blown away with everything this puzzle has to offer. Smooth turning, QUIET, corner cutting, size, everything. It is much smaller than the Rubik's brand, but that is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. I got the stickered version and the colors are amazing. I feel like a kid again. I just wish I hadn't waited almost 40 years to replace my old puzzles. Hats off to The Cubicle for offering these amazing puzzles at amazing prices. Thank you!

To preface this, I've been maining the Valk 4 Strong Edition for about 6 months before getting this. Upon unboxing, the first thing I noticed was how much lighter this felt in comparison to the Valk, but also in a way cheaper. It felt less premium out of the box compared to the Aochaung WRM, which I just got a week earlier. Regardless, it was a little fast for me in the stock set-up, and noticeably faster than the Valk. I didn't find the size difference to be all too impactful. That being said, my times have dropped by around 10 seconds, which is probably a mix of this cube and me actually practicing 4x4 somewhat seriously. I set it up with a few drops of Compound X and Mystic, which has drastically reduced the somewhat cheap feeling, and has gotten it to a good speed for me. My one gripe with the cube is that the inner layer magnets are rather weak in comparison to my Valk, which leads to some decently ugly lock-ups on OLL parity. However, compared with the lock-ups I would get on 3x3 stage on my Valk, it's much less. So overall, I would recommend this to people with disappointingly small hands such as myself, or those who are actively looking for a new 4x4 main. If you're content with your current main, I don't see a great need to get this.

Best 4x4, however the Mgc is half the price and almost as good if not the same so unless you really want the slightly better cube, get the mgc. All the layers a buttery and amazing to turn.

puzzle is pretty nice, but doesn’t blow competition out of the water like most say. Negatives: loud/clacky and sounds cheap, sometimes unstable, and a little heavy. Positives: fast and feels glidey, mostly stable, really good shades, magnet strength is really nice, and is definitely nice for some short sessions. I don’t think its for everyone, but its good enough for me.

To put it in perspective, I'm not a super fast 4x4 solver. I've only owned a handful of 4x4s since I first solved one in 2008. The Rubik's Revenge, a V-Cube 4, Moyu Weisu, and the original Moyu Aosu is what I've used since about 2015. Although each 4x4 has been progressively better (some more than others), I've always been a bit disappointed by 4x4s. They've always seemed to pop on me a lot even with relatively tight tensions, and be fairly sluggish. I bought a Qiyi MP before this (because the YJ MGC was out of stock). That was an upgrade from the original Aosu. It didn't pop much at first (until I lubed it and then small internal eges would come out fairly often), and it felt okay to solve. It definitely tired out my hands quickly, however. I think the magnets are too much on that cube. The Aosu WR M was a different story. It was immediately incredibly fast (actually uncontrollably fast), and it took many solves before I got a pop. I will say that, when I do get a pop, It's incredibly hard to fix. The internal edges are harder to get back in than any cube I've used before, but it pops so infrequently that I'm completely okay with that. I had to use some Angstrom Gravitas to slow it down a bit since it was so fast. My times with this cube are quite consistent. On my original Aosu I was kind of all over the place between 1:3x.xx and 1:05.xxish. My best solve was around 51 seconds. With the Qiyi MP I was only able to get one sub 1 minute solve, and the rest were not much better than the original Aosu. On this cube I'm averaging right around 1 minute. I get sub 1 minute solves every day, and I've gotten my pb solve of 50.23. I feel so much more confident solving on this cube, and my speed and consistency is very satisfying. I can't recommend this cube enough. It really was worth just splurging for a $40 cube in this case.

I've been out of the game for a little while and my only 4x4 was the OG aosu, and this thing blows it out of the water

I really like the compact size of this 4x4. 1 millimeter may seem like not a big difference but holding it in your hands is really satisfying. It has smooth and really fast turning. The only problem I have with this cube is if I turn too harshly it makes the small inner bracket dislodge. This can be easily fixed by tightening it a little. Mine is probably defected though because there was a noticeable mark on the red green white corner. This isn’t that big of a problem though.

I love this cube! The magnets are great and it is a bit smaller than the MGC 4x4. It also dropped my average by a considerable amount. If you want to get good at 4x4, this is the cube!

It's really good. Buy the MGC if you want a cheaper one, but this one is better than the MGC.

This was a great delivery and the shipping was very fast. The cube was actually fairly bad out of the box. But after setup it is actually very good. I know its not TheCubicle's fault but it was still a great experience. Thank you TheCubicle!!!
