GAN 562 5x5 Magnetic Standard) adopts technology previously found exclusively in GAN 2x2 and 3x3, making this a top choice for speedcubers.

Magnetic-Core features
  • Magnetic core corner/core magnets for a better, more controllable turning feel
    • This is very important for big cubes with more layers
  • ~45-degree auto-alignment
Key features
  • 96 factory-installed magnets
  • 16 factory-installed core magnets
  • Widened outer layer for improved stability
  • Honeycomb piece design for better lubricant distribution
Overview
  • Corner-cutting
    • Outer layers: ~40-degrees
    • Inner layers: ~20-degrees
  • Strong outer layer magnets paired with light inner layer magnets to improve control.
  • Locking magnet capsules to prevent magnets from coming loose
  • Double-layer structure for a more stable mechanism
  • Deep center caps to prevent them from falling out

best 5x5

The more I practice with this cube, the better it gets. So this is my final edit on this comment:
The GAN 562 is much better than the Valk5. It turns smoother and faster. It felt like it was catching (mostly it just felt that way) and seemed less accurate, but after I broke it in, it's much better.

After 4 days of practice, I beat all my 5x5 records and that's no surprise. You are on another level with this cube.

The Valk5 turns harder compared to this cube. The GAN is lighter and my hands don't get tired even after an avg50. The bigger my average, the greater the difference between the cubes. The MGC has no chance, of course.

The colors are much better compared to the Valk5. You can see the pieces earlier, so you are faster on average.

The box is nice and not oversized.

The UV coated version may have an advantage because it turns so fast and is so light that you can lose control while turning because of the slippery surface.

This cube definitely turns better than a GAN 3x3 (I don't like new GAN 3x3 cubes, but it feels like one). The normal 3x3 H perm flows with no problems, so it's even suitable for the Roux method, but the only problem I see is the small outer layers. They should be bigger!

Great 5x5! One of the best I've used. The MGC may be ever so slightly better, but the GAN and MGC are pretty much neck and neck.

No ball-core

The cube is wonderful, my best 5x5 by a long shot, but the name is misleading, saying"ball-core". I checked the inside of the cube, and theres just a normal magnetic core.

Best 5x5 on the market

The cube was tight out of the box but after loosening the screws 1/2 of a turn, it was wonderful. I do like my cubes to be a bit on the loose side so I do get a few lockups once in a while, but that could easily be changed by tightening the cube and having a more controlled turning style. Overall, it’s amazing, it just needed a few dozen of solves to break in! It’s my new main for sure.

Excellent

Exactly what I wanted. Arrived a day earlier than expected.
