MFJS Meilong 4×4 M — lightweight magnetic 4×4 for first steps and timed practice

MFJS Meilong 4×4 M - Stickerless is one of the most popular budget magnetic 4×4 cubes. It combines low weight, fairly fast turning and a bright stickerless shell, while remaining very affordable. It’s a great choice for cubers moving to 4×4 for the first time, or anyone wanting an inexpensive cube for daily practice.

The magnets help the layers recentre more reliably, reduce random underturns and make the cube’s behaviour more predictable, without turning it into an “over-magnetised” flagship.

Who is this cube for

Skill level:

• beginners who already solve 3×3 confidently and want to learn 4×4;
• casual and intermediate cubers who need a light, fast practice 4×4;
• school clubs, camps and groups where simplicity, reliability and price matter.

Age:

• kids around 9–10 years old with prior 3×3 experience;
• teens and adults who want to try bigger cubes and practise timed solves;
• a solid option as a first magnetic 4×4 in a collection.

Main use cases:

• learning 4×4 and doing your first timed solves;
• home practice and casual mini-competitions;
• use in schools, clubs and learning centres;
• an everyday cube for drilling algorithms and improving personal bests.

Turning feel

• light and fast turning — Meilong feels airy and responsive;
• magnets provide a neat, not-too-strong click and help layers align;
• outer layers feel a bit smoother, inner layers slightly denser, but without a harsh contrast;
• sound is soft, typical of a good budget 4×4 without excessive rattling;
• the cube can reach decent TPS if your technique is reasonably clean.

Overall, MFJS Meilong 4×4 M feels like a light, fast and adequately stable practice cube that makes moving from 3×3 to 4×4 comfortable and fun.

Magnets, stability and corner-cutting

Magnetic system:

• built-in magnets in the layers help the cube lock in after each turn;
• magnetic strength is light-to-medium — you feel guidance without a “cemented” lock;
• helps newer solvers reduce underturns and overshoots.

Stability and corner-cutting:

• stable enough for learning and casual speedsolving;
• corner-cutting is on par with a good budget magnetic 4×4, handling small misalignments;
• with sensible setup, it rarely chews layers and isn’t prone to pops under normal turning.

Size, weight and materials

• Format: stickerless — colours are moulded into the plastic, so no stickers to peel;
• Colours: bright, high-contrast shades that are easy to read during fast solves;
• Size: compact 4×4 (around 59 mm), comfortable for both kids and adults;
• Weight: lightweight — your hand gets less tired in long practice sessions;
• Surface: slightly matte / frosted, less slippery and with reduced glare.

Key advantages of MFJS Meilong 4×4 M - Stickerless

• excellent price-to-performance ratio for a magnetic 4×4;
• low weight and fast turning make it easy to learn and train;
• durable stickerless shell with no sticker maintenance;
• great for kids, adults, schools and clubs alike;
• ideal as a first magnetic 4×4 and a reliable “workhorse” for everyday practice.

Who it may not suit / nuances

• very advanced speedcubers may find it lacking compared to true flagships in corner-cutting and stability;
• cubers who prefer very strong magnets and ultra-rigid lock-in;
• if you are chasing top competition results, you will likely want to upgrade to a higher-end flagship later.

MFJS Meilong 4×4 M - Stickerless is a great budget magnetic 4×4 for getting started with the event, training regularly and steadily progressing from beginner to confident 4×4 solver.
