Product Description
DianSheng Gigaminx M – The World’s First Magnetic Gigaminx
The DianSheng Gigaminx M is the world’s first magnetic gigaminx, redefining what a large 5x5 megaminx puzzle can feel like. Designed with speedcubers in mind, this magnetic gigaminx delivers greater stability, smoother turning, and improved control compared to traditional non-magnetic models.
If you are looking for the best gigaminx currently available, this is widely regarded as the top-performing option on the market.
🧲 Magnetic Performance
Unlike older gigaminxes, the DianSheng Gigaminx M features factory-installed magnets throughout the puzzle. These provide:
- Improved layer alignment
- Greater stability during fast turns
- More controlled corner cutting
- A premium, modern speedcube feel
The magnetic system makes this gigaminx far more controllable than non-magnetic alternatives, especially during high-speed solving.
⚙️ Design & Build Quality
- Slightly sculpted outer layer for better grip
- Large screws for enhanced core stability
- Hollow internal structure to reduce weight
- Compact piece design for smoother movement
- Stickerless bright plastic
The smaller internal pieces and hollowed design give the puzzle a fast and light turning feel despite its complexity.
Setup tip: We recommend slightly tightening the stock tensions to reduce the risk of pops and optimise stability, especially if you prefer aggressive turning.
📏 Size & Specifications
Due to its dodecahedral shape, gigaminx sizing is measured by edge length rather than overall width.
- Edge length: approx. 35mm
- Layers per face: 5
- Faces: 12
- Magnetic: Yes
- Colour scheme: Stickerless
With a 35mm edge length, the DianSheng Gigaminx is slightly more compact than many alternatives, making it more manageable during long solves.
🏆 Why Choose the DianSheng Gigaminx M?
- World’s first magnetic gigaminx
- Best performance currently available
- More controllable than non-magnetic models
- Smaller and more ergonomic size
- Ideal for advanced solvers
If you are serious about solving large dodecahedron puzzles quickly and efficiently, this is the gigaminx to choose.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the DianSheng Gigaminx different?
This is the first gigaminx to feature factory-installed magnets. This significantly improves stability and alignment compared to non-magnetic gigaminxes.
Is this better than the ShengShou Gigaminx?
Yes, in terms of performance and stability. The magnetic system provides a more controlled feel and makes fast solving easier. However, it is positioned at a higher price point.
How big is the DianSheng Gigaminx?
It has an edge length of approximately 35mm, making it slightly more compact and manageable than some other gigaminx models.
Is this suitable for beginners?
This puzzle is best suited for experienced cubers who are already comfortable with megaminx and higher-order puzzles.
Do I need to adjust the tensions?
Out of the box it turns smoothly, but many solvers prefer tightening it slightly to improve stability and reduce the chance of pops.

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.
