The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread!

This is legitimately the best toy in existence, if you can even call it a toy.
It feels too premium to be a toy, that's for sure!
Have you ever felt that feeling you get when you finally nail that perfect trick shot? That is exactly what every single turn feels like. Perfection!
If I had the money, I would buy a million of them and hand them out to everyone on earth. Nobody deserves to not have one. Just trust me, if you buy this it will be your pride and joy, as Gollum says in the Lord of the Rings: "My precious!"
Seriously, I know this review is getting a little long but I wish I could give the Gan 16 Max more than just a five star rating. If you see this, my true rating is ∞. (In case it wasn't clear, that's an infinity sign. It gets infinite stars from me.) Actually, scratch that, infinite plus. Actually, scratch that, infinite plus + a Chuck Norris thumbs up.

This was my first new cube since a gan cube I
This was my first new cube since a gan cube I bought in 2019. Man the technology has come a long way! This thing turns amazingly and has so much control. It’s shocking to go back and forth between this and my old cube. I remember how amazing the old cube felt to me when I got it, the gan16 absolutely blows it it out of the water. I love the UV coating, it feels great in my fingers. The did a great job, would highly recommend the gan 16, the uv coating is worth the extra in my opinion.
