X-Man Tornado V3 Review: Can It Live Up To The Hype? | Pre-Order is Live! 

Note: The Tornado V3 is actually 55.5 millimeters, not 56 mm as stated. Also, the Standard and Flagship versions have a transparent dual-adjustment system, while the Pioneer Maglev version uses primary plastic. The Pioneer also has slightly different center caps, so make sure to not swap the caps between different versions, as this could cause damage to your puzzles.

10:39 that ZBLL execution was crazy! 😳

i love how Phil said "excellent grip" with so much joy and so casually just because he hates frosted plastic so much and almost every brand is using it.

Honestly, it may take longer to adjust tension but the fact that you don't need to bring the tool with you everywhere is super convenient. I would gladly spend a little more time on making adjustment instead having to bring the tool with me.

I LOVE the increase in quality of your videos, they're so much more enjoyable now!

as a TV2 main I'm glad they made it bigger and improved corner cutting. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm glad they kept the shades, probably the best possible shades for my colorblindness.

Nice to see a Roux user speak his thoughts on the cube! Also thanks Rowe for the brief note on internals, I didn't think they could effect the cube. Can't wait to get the Flagship edition.

Seeing that Phil can’t really find anything negativ to say, my excitement is even HUGER than it already was. Excuse me I have an order to make.

Looks to be the biggest 3x3 release since at least the Valk 3, very excited to get mine!

Love the thumbnail 😄 Nice video. Look forward to giving these a try.

Been hyped for this for a while, definitely going to pre order if I can

I ordered the pioneer version on October 9th, and I have yet to get the cube as of October 30.... besides that, great video as always, and keep up the great work!

So excited for this cube!

Can't wait ordered it a month ago from you guys checking the mail everyday 😃😃🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️

I've been waiting for this review for months! This will probably overthrow my GAN 11 M Duo as my main

Not about the cube but Rowe's solves is really good. I thought I won't need color neutral because of earlier solves but then I saw how efficient would it be

Will definitely get this when its more widely available. I do wish there’s an option for black internals though

I just picked up the pioneer version, I can’t wait for mine to arrive, definitely the best speed cube in 2022.

I can't wait to get my hands on this! I main the Tornado V2, and I've been waiting for this cube for months now lol :) Also, great video!!!!

Amazing! I will pre-order now.

Pre-ordered the flagship version! This cube sounds like amazing!

The only reason I never considered the Tornado V2 was because of the corner cutting, but now I think I'm sold. Can't wait for this cube to come out!

xman tornado was my fav cube and I'm so excited! im definitely ordering a v3

Ok not many cubers nowadays remembers the Tornado V1. The V1 was hit and a miss at the time it was released in 2015. It was the groundbreaking first release of the X-Man line but it got overshadowed by the Qiyi Thunderclap V1 and other 3x3's from Moyu and Yj. To the point where it got shoved to the side and sorta became a forgotten cube. It was popular though but almost no one was taking about it and recommending it. Retrospectively the V1 helped Qiyi with some future design aspects of some of their later 3x3's like the Thunderclap V2, Valk3, and some others. The biggest design feature of the V1 that got caried on was the corner feet base that held the 3 main corner parts together. This feature was super well known on the Valk3 cubes. But IDK why X-Man decided to start on redesigning the Tornado in 2020 when the V1 was almost unsuccessful in 2015 and almost no one cared about it.

I think this cube is the cube that can finally beat the old flagships (Valk 3, WRM 2019). Very excited for this cube!

Loved the Bill oreilly “we’ll do it live” reference at the end with Jules 😂🤣😅

This really helped me because im trying to find a new cube :)

How every cube review should be 💯

I really liked v2 but didn't get it because of its drawbacks. Now I am glad they solved the corner cut and they added core magnets so no need to get a mod version. This new method of adjustment is fine by me I don't like to change my settings a lot but do we still get that nice black tool with it? I hope so.

really excited, bought all 3 of them

So cool! I'm 100% getting this

Nice, Here in Guatemala its 10 PM but im watching it :D

Seems like a very promising puzzle, makes me even more excited to buy it

Very excited

i was waiting for this cubee

this is crazy as heck dude

Milan’s huge was epic

IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS CUBE 😭😭

Couple of my classmates have the v3 (both flagship and pioneer) and they’re great feeling cubes but for whatever reason I couldn’t get great times on them. I love the turning feel and everything, but there’s just something that feels off about it for me. I’m sure if I did a session of 100 solves or something like that and spent a little bit of time setting it up the my feeling I could get used to it and I’d find myself doing better on it than my current main (wrm maglev) but that’s just me. I’d still say it’s undoubtedly the best cube on the market rn

cant wait to get my v3!

1:08 for a Huge improvement

I main the V2 and I now REALLY want the V3! Unfortunately, I don't really have money to buy it...

I really like this cube. I find it as good as the gan 11 and 12. I’m interested to see if I like it as much as the gan 13.

The first V2 I bought has been one of my favorites for some time. I bought a 2nd V2, and it did not live up to the first. When the V3's came out, it wasn't clear there would be multiple versions, and I ended up with a V3 standard. Sorry, I'm not seeing any improvement. I suspect the GAN's are spoiling me. Their turning is so effortless, that I now expect all cubes turn effortlessly. Even, my best RS3 Maglev now feels clunky. And, I can't take heavy lubes anymore. I even cleaned out the factory lube on a GAN 13 and was pleased with the results. Do I dare try the flagship or pioneer? Oh, curiosity will get the better of me eventually.

My x-man tornado v3 m pioneer is coming on Friday and I’m so excited

I just now noticed that Damian is rocking a Rolex. Nice.

Recently I've been soooo much more excited for the new cubes of any brand other than gan. Hearing that these companies have been listening to so much feedback is so awesome!

The X-Man V3 is the GAN killer. No cap.

this video feels extra smooth, was it recorded in 120fps and rendered in 60?

i was worried if it had good cornercutting, it does and im definitely getting the tornado v3

I realy like the pioneer edition and it is just amazing!!!🎉

I have the Tornado v2, and two things I love about it are the black internals and how quiet the cube is. I was surprised by Rowe's comment at 11:00, saying that black internals make the cube feel slower. How would you explain this? due to different plastic?

Will there be a version with black internals? I've never liked the look of primary

i think i will choose the standard version because cameron says it more controllable than pioneer version👍

Got it today i really like it

im getting it on tuesday. sounds great.

Hey what settings did you have it on in the corner cutting test because mine from the factory does cut that well..

The difference of the standard from the v2 is only the reverse corner cutting, right? If yes, i'm just going to get the v2 or the gan 354 rs and just magnetize. I think I like black internals better.

it actually really good

Currently waiting for this cube to arrive

I actually want to order some cubes soon, so I hope that it will be available then

I love how Damian stars speaking straight about the cube, like "f*ck it, they know who I am"

Man be doing solves with the Rollie on his wrist 😂

the drawing of you in the backround tho😂

i got my son the x man tornado v3 and he loved i also tried it

Gotta pick this up

Tornado V3 Pioneer VS Gan 13 M Pro?

I was thinking about buying the v2 a few days ago but then I saw this My v3 is on the way

finally got mine to day still breaking it in.

The Tornado V3 seems so tempting, but I don't think I would be switching from my WR-Maglev anytime soon. However, the V2 is my OH main, but the V3 is bigger than the V2, so I won't be getting it for OH either.

Hey I'm planning to buy this cube, but should I get the pioneer or flagship?

Can you use the maglev kit with the flagship version?

what tuning system do you suggest? For Pioner

Would this be a good cube for someone with a rough turning style?

Incredible cube and nice video but omg... Rowe with gray hair?

the casing for the x man tornado v3 look like the gan 12 maglev box:))

Very excited for this cube. Definitely hope it’s as good if not better than the tornado v2

Also I might stick with the v2 because it is smaller

Is the yoo setup suitable for this cube?

Wow didn't expect that my comment would appear here, feels amazing tho Very nice review too and I guess My prediction is correct? Can't wait to have one 🔥

This is the best cube I have a ever used

I know it's a small thing, but will this come out with a black internals version? I liked that about the V2, and would definitely prefer that.

Seems like a good upgrade to the previous version, very impressive!

I bought this after losing my gts2m I used for 5 years. I'm partly colorblind and can't tell orange and green apart with these stickerless shades, and now I acerage 3 seconds slower than I used to

Yea i really wish i can get this cube

CubeHead easter egg caught me offguard xD

I'm trying to by a cube in thecubicle but I dont get what matte cube means. Can you explain it please phill?

please 🙏 tell me should I get the tornado V3 flagship or the Rs3M v5 ball core UV 😃

I love this cube

Hey hello, can you tell me which version is quieter? The Flagship or the Pioneer?

so cool

Almost all of them: It's my new main Gan 13: Laughs

Just brought the pioneer.

Which one has more stability? Flagship or Pioneer?

Which is better tornado v3 flagship and pioneer vs wr m maglev 2021

Just got my V3 .. so gooood , no I think the best , the feels on it is like you are not fighting with the cube or someting.. * mutual ahahaha.. its a good cube

1:00, the v2 has frosted interior, not glossy

Tbh I’m way more excited about this release than the new GAN

Is the Pioneer better than the gan 11 m pro?

Why is phill using cfop? Did he stop using ZZ and I didn’t know?
