The most popular 2x2x2 cubes of 2024

5. YuXin Little Magic 2x2x2

In fifth place is a budget option from YuXin that was released back in 2018. It has remained very popular ever since. This model has no magnets, but its newer versions do. The YuXin Little Magic 2x2 M V2 is definitely a worthy successor: it's only slightly more expensive, and besides the built-in magnets it also comes with a number of improvements.

4. GAN 251M Pro

Fourth place goes to one of GAN's most advanced 2x2 cubes. In addition to the standard magnets, this model also has magnets in the core and in the corner feet. The corner magnets have a three-level adjustment system, so you can set their strength to suit your preferences. This model also comes in a Leap version with stronger magnets, which don't necessarily help your solving speed. Thanks to its balanced magnet strength and lower price, it was this version that was the most popular in 2024.

3. MoYu Meilong 2x2x2 Magnetic

Third place goes to a budget magnetic option from MoYu. Since its release in 2020, it has been one of the most frequently chosen 2x2 cubes, mainly thanks to its excellent value for money, which is the hallmark of the MeiLong series. This model has a simple design with a classic tension adjustment system. The magnets are subtle, but they do improve stability. It's still a highly recommended model for beginners.

2. GAN 249 v2 2x2x2

Another GAN in the ranking, and this time in second place on the podium. This is the most affordable model from this manufacturer. It has no magnets, but it still has that typical GAN feel, thanks among other things to the unique IPG core and the honeycomb design on the friction surfaces. All of this makes the GAN 249 v2 a great choice for fans on a limited budget.

1. MoYu RS2M 2x2x2 Evolution

The undisputed leader of the ranking. The most popular 2x2 cube of 2024 and, in our opinion, the best budget cube in this category. At a budget price, you get an excellent magnetic cube with a dual adjustment system. In addition to the standard screws, there's also a five-level spring tension adjustment system. This gives you far more options for fine-tuning the puzzle to your own preferences. A thoroughly deserved first place.
