The QiYi M Pro 5x5 (Magnetic, Ball-Core, UV Coated) brings a professional 5x5 speedcubing experience within reach. A dual magnetic positioning system, a UV-coated finish, and a lightweight 130.35g build make this a big cube that competes well above its price.
Why you'll like it
Professional feel, accessible price: Higher-tier configurations tuned for competitive turning, built to let more cubers experience a true flagship 5x5.
Dual magnetic positioning: A core magnetic system plus an edge-corner magnetic system for more accurate alignment and more stable turning through fast bursts.
Light in the hand: At 130.35g with hollowed-out center pieces, long practice sessions won't wear you out.
Flagship looks: UV-coated surface with a full-bright color scheme for high contrast and fast, accurate recognition.
Tuning & control
Dual magnetic system: Core magnetic positioning and edge-corner magnetic positioning work together to keep layers aligned during explosive speed.
Widened outer layers: More surface to grip means higher overall controllability, suited to the way big cubes are actually solved.
Anti-misalignment layer design: Optimized middle-layer wings spread contact force to cut down on misalignments and lock-ups.
Performance & design highlights
Corner-cutting: Smooth, catch-free turns that snap into place, so the cube keeps up with your hands instead of holding them back.
Large rounded corner design: Corners are large on the outside and small on the inside, balancing aggressive corner-cutting against stability.
Edge piece anti-stick grooves: Grooved edges keep turning crisp and free of sticking.
UV coating: Wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, and glossy, so the finish holds up through heavy use.

Best fit for cubers who want a genuine professional 5x5 feel — dual magnetic stability, a light frame, and a durable UV finish — without stepping up to a premium price.
I received this cube a few days and immediately put it to the test with half a dozen solves. The faces and slices were *very* smooth, moving exactly at the speed I find most comfortable, with no stops at all, and no expectation of any pops.
I ordered a 6x6 at the same time, but haven't tried it out yet. I'm working on my MoYu 13x13 magnetic v3 right now, and expect to take another day or so on it before I try out the QiYi 6x6.

Nice upgrade over my Warrior M 5x5
This was the upgrade I was looking for over my warrior m 5x5. It's much more stable with stronger magnets. Only problem is that it's a bit sluggish and dumped with lube out of the box. Cleaning and setting up the cube with Lunar and Comet lubes helped with the sluggishness a little, though it's still a bit slow for my preference.
