DianSheng Galaxy Megaminx M — compact magnetic megaminx with ball core and sculpted surface

DianSheng Galaxy Megaminx M is a modern magnetic megaminx featuring a ball core with magnets and additional piece magnets. This dual magnetic system gives a strong sense of alignment, high stability and smooth turning even at high speeds.

The puzzle uses stickerless plastic with a slightly sculpted/concave outer surface to improve grip and control. With an edge length of about 31 mm and a weight of around 127 g, it remains compact and light enough for long practice sessions.

Galaxy Megaminx M is positioned as an affordable yet quality option that works well both for beginners learning megaminx and for more advanced speedcubers looking for a stable main.

Who is this megaminx for

Skill level:

• beginners moving to megaminx after confidently solving a 3×3 cube;
• casual and intermediate cubers who want a reasonably priced but modern magnetic megaminx;
• experienced speedcubers who like compact, stable puzzles with a strong magnetic feel.

Best use:

• daily timed practice and long algorithm training;
• preparing for and competing at official WCA events;
• pushing personal bests and improving the consistency of megaminx averages.

Design features

• Ball core magnetic system — magnets in the core interact with the centers, increasing overall rigidity and making the puzzle feel more unified in the hands.
• Magnets in edges and corners — provide a clear, strong click, helping the layers snap into place and reducing mis-turns during fast solves.
• Concave / slightly sculpted exterior — faces have a mild concave profile and “tortoise shell” style pattern that improves grip and reduces finger slipping.
• Glossy stickerless plastic — bright, high-contrast shades make recognition easier and speed up lookahead during solves.
• Internal tracks and anti-pop construction — a refined internal track system reduces friction, improves corner-cutting and lowers the chance of pops and lockups.

Setup and turning feel

• Fast, “snappy” turning — the megaminx feels lively and responsive, with a strong magnetic snap back into alignment.
• Adjustable tension — the classic spring-based core lets you tune the feel from very free and speedy to slightly tighter and ultra-stable.
• Strong magnetic feel — magnets are clearly noticeable, but with proper lubrication they don’t get in the way of speed or comfort.
• Stable at high speed — layers don’t drift apart on their own, and the puzzle holds its shape even under aggressive turning.

Who might not like it

• cubers who prefer very soft, almost unnoticeable magnets;
• those who specifically want a completely smooth, non-sculpted megaminx exterior;
• anyone looking for the simplest, cheapest non-magnetic megaminx just to “try the shape”.
