The GAN 356 XS is my new main. This video explains my general thoughts on GAN 3x3s and how my tastes have evolved with the hardware. In short: why the GAN 356 XS is better than the GAN 356 X.

correction: one doesn’t need to take apart GAN x to change magnets, forgot to consider 45 degree turn...
What's your setting for the Xs?
LaZer0MonKey lmao I knew to do that the moment I got it. Also, how do you lube your gan x and gan XS becuase whatever lube a put in it is extremely fast when it breaks in and I hate it. Pls help?
Where's the GAN logo on the white center of that cube, did you removed/replaced it or it was already like that when you bought it? By the way, I love that that it has no GAN logo on it.
Ronald Dave bruh all you do is peel the gan sticker off not that hard the white center sticker will still be there just be careful when you peel it off so that you don’t peel off the actual white sticker.
@@parityhater7155 Oh is that it? I thought that the white center and gan sticker are one, I didn't think it's two, thanks for the info bruh
*"It's easier with the tool."* Tool: *drops, twice.* Me: *hmmmmm.*
hmmm, maybe it needs ridges
@@accountname4700 LMAO
Lol was thinking the same thing
@@accountname4700 LOL
You don’t have to disassemble the X to change the magnets. Just turn the M layer 45 degrees and push them in. Still doesn’t change the fact that the XS is better, but just thought you should know.
I came here to say it and twas already said. Gg goodsir
I like the way you pronounced Tymon’s last name.
10:16 That reference was sooo on point
Me at 0:06: oh wow you can see that he used the gan x a lot lol Me at 0:13: wtf
Lol
lmfao
Well you didnt see my gan air master
6:25 What was going on there? xD "It's easier with the tool." Tool: drops, again.
Lol...noob! When will your patterns video come out?
@@mccardrixx5289 I was at a competition so let me cut those Videos first.
@@Stabruder No worries! Tomorrow,there will be the Munich Open 2019.
@@mccardrixx5289 I noticed that. Good luck! I am sadly not there... But Bremium Open 2019 🤷♂️
@@mccardrixx5289 Anyway today will go the first Video from Big cube open 2019 Düsseldorf online. Stay tuned! (OH)
Appreciate him He is one in a million who uses the stickered version of GAN X series cubes
Feliks uses the sticker Ed version as well. It looks way nicer
Informative video! Thanks for the info :D
Thx so much i was waiting for my favorite youcuber to upload and after 1hour and a half boom! Thx
0:00 wow you got a stickered cube 0:06 oh no. 0:13 this is why you get stickerless
Sirisha Bhimineni but stickerless gan cubes are significantly worse than their stickered counterparts so using a stickered gan cube actually makes a lot of sense even though gan cubes in general are bad
Yeah If you get stickerless there are a few problems but stickered just needs a lot of maintenance
Sirisha Bhimineni other than gan cub3 you should definitely go for stickerless
I'm kinda addicted to Your videos now thanks !
I got my XS yesterday (main used to be SM) and I have already broken my PB single with a 6.18 solve (used to be 6.44). I haven't even set it up, it's great
Cool Vid! Think I might buy one now
Happy Halloween!!
Other people: wow! The cube is so good! Me: poor stickers
Lazer0: you can see the magnets so you can change them. Me: gan 354
me: gan 460 also me: gan 251
The magnet strength thing has more to do with the torque you have to apply to counteract it than the misalignment of the magnets, although that is another factor as well.
Woah. Now I really wanna try the XS now lol
People say that u don’t always need to switch out magnets when u have the setting u like, but I use Gan x as regular main and OH main, so I need weaker magnets for OH
Also, your stickers are DAMN!
10:49 LOOKSS EXACTLY LIKE MY EX
first world problems air? (air=am i rite)
Do You want You Ex Girlfriend Back *SHE WONT COME BACK BUDDY*
LaZer0MonKey 2019: Dropped it
My main is gan 356 xs and gan 11m duo, 2 cube are my favorite in 2019 to 2024 but i just lube angstrom gravitas and dnm-37, the core i use weight 5 is very good
I have heard a few people say they don’t like the plastic, which is a problem with the core design of the cube that customization can’t necessarily fix
How do you have your XS setup? Lube?
"like i dont know where the magnets are probably at my old house" - LaZer0Monkey 2019
Its odd seeing Phillip with nice stickers that aren't peeling. I'm sure it'll happen eventually though ;). Nice video too.
may i know what the hell do u do to your stickers? you solve finish a cube a slam it on a knife?
i legit jumped when that gan sm came into frame, what the actual hell happened to it
Do a 2019 best 3x3s.
This one is not from Phillip but: kzhead.info/sun/ZKixmpieoH9-mqs/bejne.html
Are the magnet strengths in x and xs that much different?
I hope they start selling the core for this cube so I can just get a core and the tension system and put it in my X
Did you come from the future
Use the the card that comes with it to change magnet strength on xs
Is there a difference between stickerless and black gan XS?
You don’t have to take apart the cube to change the magnets on the X. You just turn the M slice 45 degrees and you will be able to push them out easily. Doesn’t change the fact that the XS has a better system tho
Isn't that tool used in the XS to adjust the spring compression not the tension?
Yes
You have to change the tension with your hand
Does the Stickered and Stickerless versions of the Gan XS have the same exact mechanism and Feel???
Grip is better on the stickered
its such a good cube
have got a question. Is there any filtration of lubricant trough the GMS on the XS?
and that to add, how resistant is the core?
did u soak ur SM in water or something?? what's the condition of those stickers
after turning XS my valk feels like rock
Hello! I'm the kid who played RPS for a valk 3M. Do you recommend the XS to someone who averages 13?
ER Cuber yes
If you like the valk feel,dont change to gan cubes cuz it's totally opposite from that
How did you set it up
I got a few scuffs from dropping my xs on concrete today:(
6:34 i literally died laughing
did he ever say what setup he used?
Can you do a set-up tutorial
The sticker quality evolution of the sm x and xs
Do you hear the noise of the crowd out of the house?
“You have your magnets but they were not removable” first world problems.
It’s not a problem he’s comparing the two cubes u cringe
You can just miss aline the edges by 45° and swap the GAN X magnets
I have my GAN X and I love it! I don't think I would prefer the GAN XS
@@calicomeowsie7491 Always true but I do know I can swap the cores and get the XS adjustment system to use in an X as soon as my X dies.
correction: i do prefer the xs it grew on me overtime
@@SaneTheBro I got it after having an x, it hasn't came yet, do u think I'll like it more, I got stickerless btw
Oscar Robinson Teddy Yes you will most likely. It is a bit faster, less bumpy, and much lighter. The feel isn't any different to a black XS because of the black internals.
OK thanks dude I'll let u know how it goes. BTW what's the plastic like, lots of people say it's slippery or less premium that the x, but what do u think
I think ur talking the X down way too much. Yes ofc the XS is a little better when it comes to how easy it is to adjust, but you can get the same settings on the X, it just takes like 20 seconds longer.
Oh, is that the case? Crap sorry i take it all back. lol
Wow!
Hey whats up? When will the sub 35 challenge start?
In november
@@LaZer0MonKey so tomorrow??
Have you GuoGuan Yuexiao Edm?
Probably won’t responded so just asking anyone who knows. How long has laser monkey been doing Rubik’s cubes?
What lube do you use?
Engin oil
Maple syrup
what are his settings on the xs anyone
I have the GAN X
You already could adjust the x magnets without taking the cube apart so what you said about having to take apart the whole cube was kinda nitpicky
666th like :) Great video, by the way! I really like how in depth it goes. Great job! 👏👏👏
How much better is it than the Gan 356 X?
Can you just do a review of the gan xs
Sincerely I prefer the buttery feeling of the X
is it really that smooth? I ordered the X cuz I want a buttery cube :D
Yeah, absolutely the smoothest cube I ever tried especially if you lube it with a bit of silk. The Dayan tengyun is similar in terms of feeling
@@matteomalcoci746 niceeeeee thanks man im really excited :D
SlimyZombie you're welcome i love the X too
Do you prefer stickered or stickerless?
Both For me
Never change sticker
0:14 this is why you don’t get stickerless
Does the plastic core make it more flimsy?
It's always plastic
EVERYONE, WE NEED A 4.73 RECONSTRUCTION *Like so he can see*. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST INTUITIVE SOLVES EVER AND IS FULL STEP!!! Please Phillip, please...
Shout outs to GAN lovers!!
gan Xs's is similar to sm feeling
Mmm dude... you can slice the middle layer... no need for a disassembly
you still need to carry around a pack of magnets but yeah.
This video is so paid to XS?!
Wht
Wt
W
But seriously wdym
@@typhoeus7774 Maybe they think that GAN paid for him to say this
Hi I have a doubt reply if you can answer please
Buzz, your stickers, WOOF!
And that is why i prefer stickerless cubes
The XS looks very fragile like its gonna break after a while if you turn too rough since or drop it from high up, it has a plastic core and tiny tiny plastic instead of a screw in the centers.. im very sceptical about getting an xs over an x
ok thank god im getting a cosmic gan 356 xs with pvc that sm.. jesus the stickers have been through a lot ;-;
P3rfect Robloxian same just ordered it
nice can I see the unboxing?
gan xs is my main to.
2:22 In high *presure shituations*
he was clearly in a high pressure *shituation*
You dont have to take apart the gan x to change the magnets
bro you gotta resticker the air sm ngl
the stickers on ur sm tho
I'm early so everyone is saying they're first
@@JudaiVox same
The only thing bad is the price...
LaZer0MonKey - You dont need to take apart the Gan xs to adjust the magnet strength. Moments later : struggles to adjust the magnet strength and takes the edge apart.
I need help on placing a coating on my cubes so i would avoid the stuff that happened to his cubes
Use stickered cubes or just deal with it
@@kaz8297 is like a see-through silicone or something gonna help?
@@sebru sorry I meant either use stickerlwss cubes or just replace your stickers once they get bad
@@kaz8297 the funny part is that when i ordered one stickerless is out of stock. I need to put like a thin coat to avoid scratching it
@@sebruthey don’t exist. You just gonna have to replace your stickers every once in a while, and you will probably have to invest in a plastic razor to get he stickers off. Or just search up how to sticker cubes idk. But you aren’t gonna find a coating
And dropped.........and dropped....
How everyone is saying gan x is fast mine is slow I lubed it with w3 and Martian. And I’m using strongest magnets and green nuts
Cenk Dönmez where did u get the cube from tho? im tryna buy one.
I’m assuming that you wrote this cuz u live in Turkey as well as me. I bought it from Küp Deposu it’s small company but it’s in Turkey so you don’t need to pay tons of money to duties and taxes and shipping buut I mostly don’t buy cubes from Küp Deposu because the prices are a little expensive like I paid 440 TL to gan x but I mostly shop from scs or cubicle.
do you do voice overs?
I don't think you have to take the whole puzzle apart for the magnets on the x
plot twist the cubes he were taking apart were cosmic cubes and he just destroyed everything they did to the cubes
I want to buy the xs but i'm broke
Hi bro
Who in hell would want to carry the xs’s tool? Edit: I might try to just use my hand like on the gts 3
the stickers on the air sm disgust me
I like the more x than the xs
Gan Edm
Gans just took the idea from moyu the yeaxio edm
they implemented duel adjustment system into ges tho, and they innovated the magnet system to have 3 settings
