I’m seeing lots of reviews that say the Robot is just a gimmick or party trick that you won’t use after a few times. I totally disagree with that. The Gan Robot V2 is by FAR the best product I’ve bought to help my cubing progress! I use it SO SO SO much! My PB went from 75 seconds to 26 seconds in 5 weeks, and i credit that fast progression to my Gan Robot!! I use it for scrambling for timed solves, but also for learning and practicing algorithms, and the then you can quickly go through a list of different algs in rapid succession. It’s amazing and i can’t recommend enough. I’ve got three Gan Smart Cubes that it works with (iCarry S, 365 i3 and the new Gan 12ui FreePlay). By far my favourite is the FreePlay, but the i3 is also really good (it just needs lube very often to stay smooth).
I also think the price is very reasonable for what you’re getting. Coming from other sports & hobbies, which are far far more expensive than Cubing, this robot costs less than half of a pair of rock climbing shoes (for example). It’s really a very small price to pay for such a game-changing product.
It has also allowed me to do 100 to 200+ solves a day! Which i never could have done if i was hand-scrambling. Thanks Gan and SCS for this great addition to my Cubing collection!
