Out of the box it was amazing and once I set it up it was heaven in my hands. Its kinesthetic in just the right way, and just a little too forgiving. I want to say it's like a Gan 15 but trading slightly less speed for slightly more control. If you're looking to transition to a cube of more speed and reliability, this is the one. I've used it to increase my turning accuracy over time. Please be aware that it is very easy to break if you handle it improperly. Mine is missing 7-8 corner-edge magnets and the integrity of one of the corners is questionable.
