GAN 356i vs GoCube vs Giiker - Which Smart Cube is Best?

Welcome to the battle of the smart cubes! I bought all three so you don't have too. Which one is best for you? Follow me on instagram! / red.kb
In this video I compare the GoCube, the GAN 356i, and the Giiker Supercube. I talk about which is best for speedcubing, and what bugs me about their apps. Finally I compare the three and their price to see which is best for you for the money.

Really would like a 'learn algs mode' e.g. you input a bunch of pll algs and the cube drills you on them.

[@mecke_dev]

I just bought a Gan 356i and in the App there is actually an Option to learn Algs, but i have to test it when my Cube arrives :)

[@mikesampson4028]

@@mecke_dev Oh, nice. I would like that.

[@dpage446]

@ender gaming then don't learn the algs??

[@iron5169]

Let me introduce you to the Gan i 😎😎

[@62Serhildan]

I would like to buy the gocube. I like the app, it seems like there are less issues with the gocube than with the gan 356i, it looks nice, it has a stand which makes it also possible to hold the phone etc.... But most important: I would like to learn Cfop through the app, is this possible with any of the smart cubes?

Totally agree. As long as mains features are present and well made, I don't see what's the point of criticizing extra features. So much companies are just doing the minimum and even less for full price, so for one time that a companie offer more than expected I think that should be encouraged.

The only thing I'm going to mention is is that about the amount of people in the battling feature in which the giiker supercube has an advantage because its been out longer(thus more people have had a chance to buy it). But overall great video!

When you do the wrong turn during scrambling, it changes to show you how to get back on track to the normal scramble

[@theunpopularcuber9554]

Have you heard about the skewby copter plus? If so you should get it. There's barely any videos about it on KZbin, so it deserves more attention. The price is 44 dollars on The Cubicle.

[@ugon.1211]

Cool video as always, i have the last giiker and i really liked it, just some problems with connection, which im sure wasn't my internet, and i lost the battle and the coins because of that, but besides that it is really cool to play with. I don't know if you did this before, but i would like to see a tutorial of yours corner first way to solve. Anyways big fan.

[@Zyugo]

Glad to see you again. I'll say, I do like the comparison between all the 'Smart Cubes' and how their quality differs from one another. Question: How hard is a 2x2x3 for you? 2x2x4? 2x3x3? Else?

If u will get one i would reccomend the gan 356i play because its cheaper and the battery runs out slower

[@bodhisoma]

I liked the video and appreciate your thoughts but what's with the hand waving? I was expecting a magic trick at some point.

[@michaelviana]

Is it possible to learn how to solve the magic cube more quickly through methods such as PLL, OLL and F2L?

I started cubing a Year ago and my PB is 42 sec and i'm having 58 sec on AVG12 atm i hope the 356i will help me improving, luckily i'm using CFOP so its perfect for me ^^

[@Ferotiq]

While the Cube Station app was shitty at the beginning, it’s been very much improved and has been scraped out of many of the flaws it had early on. Such as the English translation, battery percentage, unwanted disconnecting, etc.

[@StewartStewart]

Are you able to speak about how easy these are to use with third-party and open source software? Do any of the apps make it easy to export raw data?

I am a beginner cuber and I chose to get the GoCube and I am pretty young but I think it is pretty good for beginners

[@chessdude67]

So, not a good teaching tool for beginners? I can solve the cube, but it takes me about 2 minutes. I’m an old guy who can afford one, but only want one if it will help with learning things like F2L. Thank you. Good job comparing the three. 👍👍

What is the newest giiker cube ?

[@activehamster7724]

All of them are good!🤪

[@mariejoseph50]

The part where you are talking about the go cube and the app, if you look at the trailer, the GoCube was created mostly targeting new cubers and people who already know how to solve the cube and get better. For new cubers, it teaches them how to solve the cube and get comfortable with it using the games. For people who already know how to solve it, the games are there to get them more comfortable with the cube and solving it faster. Finally, for pro cubers, the app is there just to give them more practice and more variation.

[@user-go5he1fe1g]

I sold my 3 kindeys for the Gan i. I hope it comes

[@DSCuber-28-01-2019]

What method do you use

[@Nullscr1pt]

Hey @RedKB was hoping you could answer this for me. I am a cubing beginner. I can do the 3 layer method in about 1 - 2 minutes? and I am currently working on F2L. I find myself just randomly trying stuff to get F2L to work and sometimes I get it, and sometimes I am like??? HEY? how did that red piece get solved, but I don't really know exactly what or how I did it. I tried to look at some Tutorials online and they always have cases like, Case1 do this, case 4 do that? etc... but figuring out what case I have and how to do it is a pain. I was really hoping to get a smart cube and it teach me F2L, like for example: I do the cross, then its like, ok doofus, do this for F2L part 1, and it just shows me or teaches me. Do you think the Gan or the smart cube can do that and will help me?? currently running a 10 dollar speed cube and I am not sure I care about battles or PB's yet since I am on baby steps of cubing. Which smart cube will help me with CFOP or F2L or etc? Thanks!

[@MatrixFC-bz6dj]

which method you use for solve ?

[@kristenstawniczy8915]

havent got go cube yet..

[@thefireturkeys4919]

Is it possible to mix and match the apps? Could you use the GO Cube on the GiiKER app and the GiiKER on the Gan app and the Gan on the GO Cube app? Or just some other combination?

[@whotyjones]

I'm curious more how the recording works. If I were to bring this to a comp, can it be set up to record internally or do I need to have my phone connected to it and running the app?

[@Shizaru2723]

None of these are comp legal

[@plinkinganddriving]

My man, you need to learn some cfop. I only know like 20 easy algorithms, and I got a sub 20 avg of 5. Think it was 14 seconds.

[@gabrieldrucker8943]

C:\users\ SoftRock.wav\ which ones do you know?

[@plinkinganddriving]

RainbowTacoBro like the first 20 f2l Alf’s on gan sheet, 2-3 oll’s from Ortega, and u perms, h, z, a’s and j’s

[@milomaher1582]

Some people get more enjoyment from certain methods than just going for speed. People who have been doing this for 20+ years probably don't want to switch up their methods and they've probably come to terms with the fact that they aren't competing to be world-class

[@plinkinganddriving]

I know, but he seems more like a speed cuber, so if he wants to go for speed, then he should switch. Also, the people I know that have been able to solve it for 20+ years, only really use a Rubik’s cube. In fact, most people I know that have known it for over 20 years, (the cube, I lose sense in long messages) don’t even want to know how to solve it, and they just like to mess around with it.

[@OwenMorrisonyt]

[@mikeb1013]

Love your videos. Would you answer a question for me please? I bought the 356i Play for the Algorithm Training part of the App. On your version, could you go into the app in: Personal Training -> Algorithm Training -> Practice CFOP -> F2L -> OK -> Select Alg, then pick (31): U R U’ R’, then OK and see if what you see makes sense. I cannot get the Apps picture to match what a solved cube can permute to. I'd like to know if it is just me being dumb or an issue with the App. Many thanks if you have the time for this.

[@whotyjones]

I'm curious if that scrambler from the GAN is just re-calculating the scramble from your current state when you make a mistake. You should try doing the scramble twice but once following it correctly and once without

[@redkb]

I was wondering the same thing. It hides the moves so not sure if that would work.

[@whotyjones]

@@redkb Yeah, I was trying to think of a way around that. Can you go back to attempt the same scramble? Could try doing it again with wrong turns to see if it course corrects

[@whotyjones]

@@redkb I got one the other day and decided to scramble two cubes at the same time, then before the last move, I did some random turns then followed the scramble. Gave me the same scramble state so I think it's safe to say that it course corrects!

[@kulserz6747]

Ludvig Bennhage I recommend the giiker cube. The gan app is really buggy. Giiker is also the cheapest

[@MrVara411]

I like the games on the GoCube also. Just another way of mixing things up.

[@Thcubnb]

The Reason the Gan cube adds extra Scrambles, is becaseu when you turn a wrong move, it gives you extra moves so that the cube will return to the original scramble.

[@AbsoluteAbsurd]

GoCube is the cutest one
