MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 — 8 Magnet Ball Core UV (Spring): flagship with magnetic core and springy feel

MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 — 8 Magnet Ball Core UV (Spring) is a top version of the WeiLong V11 with a spherical magnetic core with 8 magnets, classic springs and glossy UV coating. The magnets in the core help the corners align more precisely, add a feeling of “autopilot”, while the spring system keeps the familiar, bouncy turning feel without MagLev.

The size of 55.5 × 55.5 × 55.5 mm and weight around 60–65 g give the impression of a light but very dense and stable speedcube. The cube uses a magnetic core, 48 built-in edge–corner magnets and a dual adjustment system (several levels of tension and elasticity), so you can tune it very precisely to your own style.

Who is this cube for

Skill level:

• advanced hobby solvers and competition cubers who want a flagship with a magnetic core;
• those who have already tried modern MagLev / ball core cubes and specifically want a “spring” version with a core.

Age:

• teenagers and adults;
• suitable for motivated kids who confidently solve 3×3 for time and are looking for a serious upgrade.

Main use cases:

• regular speed training and participation in competitions;
• upgrade from older flagships and budget cubes to a modern cube with a magnetic core;
• main “competition” cube for official events and serious practice.

Turning feel

• very light and fast turning, layers start moving with almost no extra effort;
• the magnetic core gently “pulls” the corners towards the center, giving a more connected, solid turning feel;
• medium-strength layer magnets complement the core — alignment feels clear, but without excessive “braking”;
• springs preserve the familiar elasticity: the cube doesn’t feel like a “stiff magnet”, it stays lively and responsive.

Out of the box the cube is very fast and “airy”, yet surprisingly stable thanks to the core. Usually it is enough to slightly adjust the tension and add some lube to get a “very fast, but fully under control” feel, matched to your turning style.

Magnets, core and adjustment

Magnetic core (8 Magnet Ball Core):

• spherical core with 8 magnets interacting with the corners;
• corners are more strongly “linked” to the center, turning feels more monolithic and connected;
• the core helps layers return to perfect alignment faster, reducing the number of lockups.

Layer magnets:

• 48 factory-installed edge–corner magnets stabilize the layer positions;
• magnet strength is close to medium — the alignment click is noticeable, but doesn’t interfere with algorithm spam.

Adjustment system (Spring Core):

• classic spring core with dual adjustment (tension + elasticity);
• several fixed levels for each axis, making it easy to find the right “stiffness”;
• everything is adjusted with the included tool, no need to disassemble the cube or change parts;
• you can set it up as more loose and fast, or more tight and ultra-stable, depending on your preferences.

Stability and corner-cutting

• strong forward and confident reverse corner-cutting at modern flagship level;
• the magnetic core + layer magnets help the cube forgive small grip inaccuracies;
• corner design with anti-pop and anti-twist features reduces the risk of accidental pops and corner twists;
• with proper setup the cube easily handles very aggressive TPS.

Size, weight, materials

• Size: 55.5 × 55.5 × 55.5 mm — slightly more compact than the classic 56 mm, comfortable for modern fingertricks;
• Weight: about 60–65 g — light for a flagship with a core, comfortable for long sessions;
• Shell: stickerless with glossy UV coating, very bright and high-contrast color scheme;
• Surface: UV coating — smooth and shiny, more resistant to small scratches, easy to clean;
• Construction: closed (capped) pieces, magnetic capsules and textured inner surface to reduce friction.

Key advantages

• magnetic spherical core with 8 magnets — noticeable boost in stability and “autopilot” feeling;
• classic spring core — familiar, bouncy turning without MagLev specifics;
• rich adjustment possibilities: you can finely tune both speed and control level;
• excellent balance of speed, stability and a solid, connected feel thanks to the core;
• premium glossy UV coating — eye-catching look and increased wear resistance.

Who it may not suit / nuances

• if you specifically want MagLev (maximum free turning without springs), it’s better to look at MagLev versions of the V11;
• for fans of fully matte, “velvety” plastic the UV coating may feel too smooth and shiny;
• those who prefer ultra-light, “empty” cubes without a core may find this monolithic feel a bit unusual.

If you want a modern MoYu flagship with a magnetic spherical core, classic springs and premium glossy coating, MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 — 8 Magnet Ball Core UV (Spring) is a powerful option both for serious practice and for competition performance.
