I am annoyed by this. Did Erno Rubik really endorse this? Please.
I grew up trying to solve the Rubik’s Cube, get the top face and two rows...then make a cross on the bottom face - solved.
It's all change in Rubikworld. the cube has had a iPhone makeover. These days you dont crunch through the cube with both hands at warp speed, you swipe LEDs with your finger to change the colors. When you successfully change the color or “flip”, the TouchCube, as its known, will emit a sound.
But the thing that really gets my goat is the solve button. Now a 2 y.o can solve the cube!
The TouchCube is about $150, compared with the original which is $10. Someone has put a hell of a lot of thought to upgrade the cube but somethings just shouldn't be tampered with
