MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 — Magnetic: spring-based flagship with precise magnetic control

MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 Magnetic is the “classic” version of MoYu’s new flagship: the same modern geometry, but without ball-core and MagLev — only springs and magnetic capsules in the pieces. The size 55.5 × 55.5 × 55.5 mm and weight of about 60 g give a feeling of a light but very solid speedcube, designed for fast and stable sessions.

The cube uses 48 built-in edge–corner magnets, matte stickerless plastic and a dual adjustment system (8 tension levels and 8 elasticity levels), so you can fine-tune it quite precisely to your turning style.

Who is this cube for

Skill level:

• intermediate and advanced cubers who want a current flagship without MagLev and ball-core;
• experienced hobbyists who solve for time and value stability and control.

Age:

• teenagers and adults;
• suitable for motivated kids who confidently solve 3×3 and are ready for a serious cube.

Main use cases:

• regular speed training and participation in competitions;
• upgrade from older flagships and budget cubes to a modern model with rich adjustment options;
• a universal “workhorse” cube for those who want top-tier geometry without extra gimmicks.

Turning feel

• turns light and fast, layers start moving with almost no effort;
• medium-strength magnets clearly help layers snap into place, but do not slow down every move;
• the feel is soft and slightly “rubbery” — springs give a familiar bounce and sense of control;
• the internal texture and encapsulated magnets reduce friction and help lube stay in place longer.

Out of the box the cube is already quite fast — for most people it will be enough to slightly adjust the tension and add some lube to bring it to a “fast but confidently under control” state.

Magnets and adjustment

Magnets in the layers:

• 48 factory-installed edge–corner magnets provide smooth and predictable magnetic alignment;
• magnet strength is close to medium: the click is easy to feel, but does not get in the way of algorithm spam.

Adjustment system:

• classic spring core with dual adjustment;
• 8 tension levels + 8 compression (elasticity) levels — 64 feel combinations in total;
• everything is adjusted with the included tool, no need to swap parts;
• you can make the cube either looser and more “airy”, or tighter and “solid as a rock”.

Stability and corner-cutting

• strong forward and confident reverse corner-cutting at flagship level;
• the cube forgives small inaccuracies and does not require perfect hand positioning;
• corner design with anti-pop and anti-twist features reduces the risk of pops and corner twists;
• with reasonable setup it reliably handles 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 g — a light flagship, comfortable for long sessions;
• Shell: stickerless, bright color scheme with good visibility at speed;
• Surface: matte (frosted) plastic — small scratches are less visible, the cube doesn’t slip out of your hands;
• Construction: closed (capped) pieces, magnetic capsules and textured inner surface to reduce friction.

Key advantages

• modern flagship geometry with a classic spring core;
• precise magnetic control without MagLev and ball-core — for those who prefer a traditional feel;
• rich adjustment (8×8 levels) lets you fine-tune the cube to your style;
• balanced speed and control: suitable both for aggressive TPS and for a more careful technique;
• light shell and matte plastic — comfortable to hold and to train with for a long time.

Who it may not suit / nuances

• if you want maximum “features” (ball-core, MagLev, UV coating), it’s better to look at higher WeiLong V11 versions;
• if you like a heavy, inert cube, the standard 60 g weight may feel too light;
• for fans of glossy UV coating, the matte surface will feel more “calm” in the hand.

If you want a modern MoYu flagship on classic springs with precise magnetic alignment and a wide adjustment range, MoYu WeiLong V11 3×3 — Magnetic is an excellent “workhorse” option both for training and for competitions.
