MoYu RS Skewb M – MagLev — fast magnetic skewb with MagLev core and advanced tuning at a budget price

MoYu RS Skewb M – MagLev is the MagLev version of the popular RS Skewb, featuring a MagLev core where traditional springs are replaced by pairs of magnets. This magnetic repulsion system reduces friction and gives a noticeably faster, smoother turning feel compared to the standard spring-based version.

The puzzle measures about 55 mm, weighs around 68 g, and comes in stickerless plastic with a frosted finish and purple internal plastic. Inside, you’ll find a MagLev core, a modern anti-pop mechanism, rounded corners for better corner-cutting and a dual adjustment system with 9 levels of compression.

Who is MoYu RS Skewb M – MagLev for

Skill level:

• confident beginners who already know skewb and want something faster and more “glidey”;
• casual cubers looking for a very fast budget skewb with lots of adjustability;
• advanced competitors who value speed, stability and customisation without paying flagship prices.

Best use:

• daily speed practice and spammy algorithm sessions;
• preparing for and competing at official WCA skewb events;
• pushing personal bests and building consistent averages.

Design features

• MagLev core (magnetic repulsion) — springs are replaced with magnets, which lowers friction, increases turning speed and softens the sound of the cube.
• Medium/strong magnets in the pieces — help layers snap precisely into place, boosting stability and control at high speed.
• Dual-adjustment system with 9 settings — lets you tune both tension and MagLev compression, so you can choose between a very free, reactive feel or a tighter, more stable setup.
• New anti-pop mechanism and rounded corners — reduce pops and lockups and improve corner-cutting during aggressive turning.
• Frosted stickerless exterior — slightly textured plastic offers secure grip, hides fingerprints and has molded-in colors that will never peel.
• Purple internals — a clean, distinctive look that visually separates the MagLev version from the standard one.

Setup and turning feel

• Very fast, “glidey” turning — layers accelerate easily and the cube feels light and effortless to turn, even with minimal lubrication.
• Strong but comfortable magnetic feedback — magnets are clearly felt, but don’t get in the way of speed and help prevent overshooting.
• Stable at high speed — thanks to the MagLev core, magnets and anti-pop system, the skewb stays together and holds its shape during fast, spammy algorithms.
• Fine-tuned to your style — with 9 compression levels you can dial the cube in from ultra-free and reactive to more firm and controlled.

Who might not like it

• cubers who prefer a heavier, slower feel and don’t want an extremely fast cube;
• those who like the classic spring feel and don’t want a MagLev core;
• anyone who dislikes stronger magnets and very “slippery” turning.
