Why Choose the Tornado V4 AI?
The Tornado V4 AI is ideal for cubers who prioritise turning feel and performance in a smart cube. It offers a more natural solving experience than many alternatives, making it easier to transition between smart cubes and regular speedcubes.
Compared to GAN smart cubes such as the GAN 12 UI SP, the Tornado V4 AI focuses more on pure solving performance, while GAN cubes offer a more developed app ecosystem.
If you want a smart cube that feels like a top-tier speedcube with added smart features, the Tornado V4 AI is one of the best options available.

Returns Policy
Returns
If the item is faulty:
If you find a fault with the product within 30 days that significantly restricts your ability to use it you may request to return it for fixing or a replacement if fixing is not possible. Once you have provided reasonable evidence that the product is faulty and cannot easily be fixed then you can return it to 90 Culley Court, Peterborough, PE2 6WA
I will then attempt to fix it myself, usually I will be able to easily fix it and can then send it back to you quickly, if I am unable to fix it then I can offer a replacement of the product or a refund or similar product if the item is no longer in stock.
Please note that if a cube pops, this is not a reasonable justification for a return, all good cubes have the potential to pop occasionally, if it happens frequently you should consider tightening the tensions or turning more smoothly. Learning to fix popped cubes is an important part of your growth and development as a cuber, it is a very useful skill to develop, I have some tutorials on fixing pops on my youtube channel and there are obviously many more online.
