GAN 562 5x5 (Magnetic, Core Magnets)

This cube turns very well, and does not pop at all (at least, for me). It fits my hand size perfectly, and it is already my new main (replacing YJ MGC 5x5). If you are in need of a new 5x5 and the price doesn't matter, then get this cube.

Did it make me a faster solver? No.
Does it feel like a premium 5x5? Absolutely.

It took me a few solves to really get the feel for this thing but now that it's broken in I'm loving it. The YJ MGC 5x5 is great, been using that one for years, but the GAN 5x5 just has such a nice smooth snappy feel. It's faster than I expected, but still pretty stable. Instantly my new 5x5 main.

It feels good. Get it. Don't sweat the price tag it's worth it.

This is one of my favorite cubes. It just feels smooth, doesn't stick at all, I don't feel like it's going to pop, etc. I'm not fast by any means, but this cube is easy to control and as mentioned all the layers turn smoothly with minimal lube.

Now I wait for GAN to release a 6x6!

I got this yesterday, and right away I knew that nothing could beat this. The magnet strength is very reasonable, mainly because the inner layers have stronger strength than the outer layers, which helps with turning. I got the matte plastic version because I wasn’t willing to pay nine extra dollars just for UV coating. I’m selling my mgc to my friend because I don’t have any use for in anymore 🤷. The only thing is the price, but when it comes from a company that sells their flagship 3x3s at $90, this is something you should expect.

I've had this cube for 6 months now and the 562M from my experience so far is doing really well. I feel like if you have big hands like me, this cube would be very comfortable. The cube is also really fast and has really good inner layers as it's actually quite hard to accidentally lock up. It performs pretty good without any lube that you lwky might not even need to add any lube (depending on your preferences ofc). Overall, I love it and would definitely recommend to the ones who have bigger hands. If you have smaller hands, then maybe the AoChuang WRM would be a good option as well.
