Qiyi Speedcubing Mat - XMD — a thick speedcubing mat with mounts for standard timers.

This QiYi mat uses a mouse-pad-like surface: soft, non-slip, and meant to protect both cube and table when you set the cube down quickly. It’s 3 mm thick and about 50 × 30 cm.

Who it’s for

• Daily practice on 3×3 and other cubes, especially if you want less impact on the table.
• Cubers using standard timers that attach via mounts.
• If you use a GAN smart timer or Speedstacks G5, the mounts typically won’t fit.

Feel in use

• 3 mm padding noticeably cushions drops compared to thinner mats.
• Mouse-pad texture helps it stay stable on the table.

Mounts & compatibility

• Mounts are included and screw on; usually not pre-installed.
• They commonly fit timers like Speedstacks G4, YJ, YuXin, and QiYi.
• They do not fit the GAN smart timer and Speedstacks G5.

Size & materials

• Size: about 50 × 30 cm.
• Thickness: 3 mm.
• Material: non-slip mouse-pad type.

Main pros

• Thicker mat for better protection.
• Stable on the table.

• Good for competition-style practice.

Possible downsides

• Not compatible with the GAN smart timer and Speedstacks G5 (mount-wise).

How to use

• Lay the mat on a flat surface.
• Screw on the mounts and attach your timer if desired.
• Use standard start/stop with the timer sensors.
