MoYu RS3 M 3x3 V5 (Magnetic) - Dual-Adjustment

For being under 10 dollars this is a cube can absolutely perform. This would be a 10/10 gift for beginners wanting to get into it or a good budget cube.

The RS3M V5 is a solid budget choice with its high speed and easy customization but the plastic quality is rather poor which you can feel while turning. If you are gentle however, the plastic is passable, but it's a point of concern, nonetheless. Overall, a great budget option for those who enjoy light magnets and a fast out of the box experience, approved.

I think this cube is amazing for the price, it turns smooth once broken in a bit, and has stayed consistant for me for over 30 thousand solve. Would highly reccomend this cube with any kind of "fast" lube as a good combo. Will probably just buy more of these when my main gets too worn down.

For starters, I'm an intermediate solver that is still refining keyhole method and not quite sure if I have the patience to learn cfop yet. This cube has multiple variants, with this being one of the lower end models. This is my first cube with a dual adjustment system, and it feels alright. Once you have your settings dialed in you don't have to worry about breaking the cheap plastic on the adjustment system. With that being said, this is NOT a cube for beginners in my opinion. This cube is very fast out of the box and requires some lubing and tensioning to feel comfortable. Then again, I am also coming from a MFJS3M with a slight bit of silicone lube to slow it down and smooth it out. I realized I had my tensions quite high on that cube after turning this one. After a little setup with some light lube, it has gotten a lot more controllable. Times on this cube for me has gotten slightly better after dealing with getting used to the difference in puzzle speeds and controllability. This is a very affordable puzzle, but if you know someone who doesn't even have beginners method memorized yet, get them a budget cube such as the MFJS3M.

The RS3M is a great cube for starters. It isn’t too fast but isnt too slow. The tightness system is a bit too much at first but it is easy to use after a bit of use. I used it without lube and it was really smooth! With some setup, this cube can be greater than it is. The magnets are also strong enough to turn easily. These unlike the tightness system cannot be adjusted. Great cube none the less!
