GAN356 M 3x3
Product Description
The GAN 356 M is a modern, mid-range magnetic 3x3 speed cube by popular manufacturer GAN. This version comes with GAN’s unique hand adjustable Numerical IPG Core and a set of spare GES nuts. Out of the box, the GAN 356 M has a fast, stable feel that is very reminiscent of a mix between the GAN XS and GAN X V2, two of GAN's most famous flagships. The GAN 356 M checks off all the needs speedcubers have for a nice magnetic 3x3, and makes a good cube of choice for cubers who like GAN engineering with a side of simplicity.
GAN also released a "Lite" version of this cube, with no additional spare GES nuts.
Comes with:
- GAN 356 M 3x3 speedcube
- Extra GES pack
- GAN Cube bag
- GAN pamphlet
AKA: GAN356 M, GAN 356M

Our Promise to You
All of our products are guaranteed to be free of defects, or we will replace and reship at no cost to you. Please contact us within 4 weeks (28 days) past the delivery date to report any issues with items you have purchased.
Please note that some new cubes when being used for the first few times may experience what is termed a "pop". This is when one or more parts of a puzzle pop out without any damage actually being done to any of the pieces. This also occurs from time to time during normal usage. Pops are typically not considered a defect if the parts which come off can be reassembled by hand.
The corners on 2x2 puzzles should not be twisted as doing so may snap the piece. Damage caused by corner twisting is not considered to be a defect.

Customer Reviews
I just started cubing about 5 months ago and I was rocking the qiyi warrior w I think but I really wanted a better cube like a magnetic one but a cheap one so I looked up GAN and found this awesome priced cube and I so I got and man was it good for just 33 dollars I just became in love . So if your okay with spending 32.99 for a cube like this then give it a shot it’s crazy good
oh make sure to use code cube head!!!
Love this cube, i highly recommend getting the professional lube service if you are newer to cubing and don’t really know how to go about lubing a cube.
Pro’s
Cheap cheap
Magnetized
All kinds of way to tune it
Love the packaging, feels like opening a new iPhone
Feels light and airy
Smooth as smooth can be
Corner cutting is over 45 deg
Comes with a travel bag and a secure plastic box
Comes with a biginner instructions and CFOP (two look OLL & PLL) instructions
Only con is that it doesn’t come with the adjustment tool, but not a big deal unless you have beefy hands
It’s the cube I recommend to people
SOOO GOOD
MY FIRENDS SAID ITS BETTER THAN THEIR GAN 13's CUZ MY LUBE SETUP AND THE NUTS REPLACERMENT IS AWESOME
the gan 356m is a great mid range cube, has a smooth papery feel out of the box. i will go over of my opinions in the pros and cons.
the gan 356m's corner cutting is not the best, 45degress takes some effort at times and theres a spot where it doesnt cut, though i dont think anyone would make such an extreme cut, just something minor. the magnet strength for me is a little too strong, though this comes down to personal preferences.
the gan 356m is a great feeling cube, i use green ges nuts to make it more stable. it feels smooth papery, enjoying to turn and very light, way lighter than gan's past flagship, the x, which is 50 dollars. i love the crunchy, tactile and hollow sound it produces. coulours are very vibrant, which i like. overall, i think this cube is great, in terms of price and performance, suitable for all levels of cubers. i definitely am happy with my purchase with this cube.
Theres good things and bad things about this cube.
I got this cube when I was a beginner cuber and averaging 40 seconds back in april and it has helped me get an average of 20 seconds and a pb of 12 seconds. It feels nice and the GES nuts really came in handy because the blue nuts were too loose for me so I used the yellow nuts to the 0.8 setting. The magnet strength is really good too and corner cutting is great.
I don't like this cube a lot though. Back then I was a "cuber" who knew nothing about cubing and thought gan was the only good brand, but I was very wrong. The cube flexes and isn't as stable as I would like it to be even with the yellow ges, and the honeycomb pattern is nice but annoying to clean since dust and gunk get into the lines. There's better options that are cheaper than this. I would recommend getting a cheaper (and maybe better cube)like a Valk 3 M or a YJ MGC Elite if you want a cube that has customizability, or the RS3 M 2020 if you are on a tighter budget. If you just want a GAN cube that has magnets then get this I guess.
TL;DR Great corner cutting, good magnetic strength, GES Nuts are necessary, a bit too flexible, annoying honeycomb pattern, better options cheaper than this.
The cube is super smooth and feels great with the magnets. Comes with extra magnets and a bag to keep the cube in. Would recommend!
I’m not a speed cuber. Just a guy who does basic solves to keep my memory and fingers nimble. Basic solves are impressive to most people. I wanted to see what a premium cube felt like. Feels great and I’m quite happy with my purchase.
This is a very good product came well packing
I purchased this cube with high expectations and it literally was insane! Recommend this to any new budget cuber!
Insanely smooth, fast and has awesome corner cutting. This was my very first cube because I am a beginner and started cubing ~3 weeks ago. From sub-3 minutes to sub-1 minute with this cube. No regrets on buying this.
