QiYi XMD Flare 2x2 M: the first 2x2x2 cube from X-Man Design

The Flare is the first 2x2x2 cube from X-Man Design, a brand owned by QiYi. It was released in December 2020. It was also the first 2x2 cube with adjustable magnet strength. The letter M in the name means the cube comes with factory-installed magnets, so you don't have to fit them yourself.

Magnet adjustment in a single corner

You change the magnet strength in one corner: the red-green-white one. This is where you set the magnet switches. Their position determines which of the three modes is active: weaker, medium or strong. You switch them with your fingers, without taking the cube apart. The design raised some doubts, because only one piece is adjustable. In practice, however, it works well and lets you match the magnet strength to your turning style.

How it turns

The Flare is fast and smooth, and light as well. Many users describe the feel as slightly crunchy. The strong magnets make the cube stable and easy to control during fast moves. Some people feel this means it isn't the fastest 2x2. There are also comments about lockups and weaker corner cutting. Opinions are divided on this: for some cubers it's their main 2x2, while others prefer more forgiving cubes.

Who is it for?

The Flare is a good fit for anyone who likes strong magnets, stability and control in a 2x2. It also suits those who want to change the magnet strength without disassembling the cube. The cube can be used in official competitions.

    Kostka ok, ale bardziej polecam yj mgc

    + :
    - corner cutting jest na poziomie
    - estetyczny wygląd pudełka i układanki
    +/- :
    - kostka przychodzi sucha (więc można samemu nasmarować)
    - :
    - kostka ma dużo rolling popów
    - system magnesów niby jest wymienialny ale w rzeczywistości nie jest ( system polega na tym że wymienia sie jeden magnes ale wtedy tylko inne magnesy sie nie równoważą)

    QiYi XMD Flare 2x2 M

    Nie jestem profesjonalistą 2x2, ale mogę co nieco powiedzieć. Feeling kostki jest przyjemny, brak rolling'ów i pop'ów. Jednak magnesy sporo utrudniają poruszanie, bo kostka nie należy do najszybszych. Polecam średnio zaawansowanym speedcuberom.
