Dayan Megaminx V2 M — lightweight magnetic megaminx with comfortable grip and smooth turning

Dayan Megaminx V2 M is a magnetic megaminx from Dayan that combines low weight, soft turning and well-balanced magnets in the pieces. The puzzle feels fast yet controlled and predictable, making it a great step up from basic non-magnetic or older megaminx models.

Its ergonomic shaping and refined internal structure help reduce lockups and make longer practice sessions more comfortable. Dayan Megaminx V2 M works well both as a daily trainer and as a puzzle for your first competitions.

Who is this megaminx for

Skill level:

• intermediate cubers who already know how to solve megaminx with a basic method;
• speedcubers upgrading from simple non-magnetic or older designs to a modern magnetic megaminx;
• cubers who want a comfortable puzzle for regular practice and steady improvement.

Best use:

• daily timed practice and algorithm drilling;
• pushing personal bests and building more consistent averages;
• local and official WCA competitions.

Design features

• Magnets in edges and corners — provide a neat, consistent click, helping layers lock into place properly and reducing mis-turns during fast solves.
• Classic spring-based core — a familiar, MagLev-free system: easy to adjust via the screws, with predictable behavior once tuned.
• Refined internal geometry — solid corner-cutting for its class and fewer lockups compared to basic budget megaminxes.
• Comfortable face shaping — slightly rounded edges and subtle texturing give a more secure grip and reduce finger slipping.
• Bright stickerless plastic — high-contrast shades make recognition easier and speed up lookahead during solves.

Setup and turning feel

• Smooth, moderately fast turning — the megaminx accelerates easily, but does not feel loose or floppy and stays under control.
• Adjustable tension — a small screw adjustment lets you find your preferred balance between speed and stability.
• Mild magnetic feel — magnets are clearly noticeable without being harsh, which makes the puzzle comfortable for long practice sessions.
• Stable at speed — layers don’t drift apart on their own, and the puzzle holds its shape even with more aggressive turning.

Who might not like it

• complete beginners who are just discovering megaminx — they may find slower, simpler models easier at first;
• top-level speedcubers who want an ultra-flagship megaminx with extreme corner-cutting;
• cubers looking for the absolute cheapest option just “to try” megaminx — the Dayan Megaminx V2 M is aimed more at serious practice.
