When the Rubik's Clock was released it was said to be harder than the Cube. I didn't think so though. Worked it out completely within a few hours and from then on could solve it within a minute (well, until it kept jamming. 😕)
Originally posted by XanthosNZ Took me about 2 months of practice and reading about the techniques before I could get below 2 minutes most of the time. After that it became boring and I haven't touched one in a few years.
it took you 2 months?😕 it took me about 9 hours(estimated not straight) after i mastered the technique it took me a couple of days to get my time under @ minuets

it's from that film the cube, where people who are addicted to the rubbicks cube are put in, to break them of thier addiction.😛😛 And you realize after 2 minutes , you would be lucky just to get out alive
My personal best time is 24 seconds. I had a friend in high school who used to race with me between classes. I pick it up occasionally now and can still set it right in about 1 1/2 minutes.
As a side note, my daughter got me a Rubik's 4x4 (originally released in the 80's as Rubik's Revenge) for Christmas last year. Completely different set of patterns needed to solve it, and I haven't figured them all out yet.

Neither do "Cube 2: Hypercube" or "Cube Zero"
are you certain, when i finally worked out how to do the rubbnek cube, my fingers had the look of something from the cube. maybe thats where the idea came from. cube minus one
I can't think of any agreeable gain from learning to solve the rubik's cube in under 2 minutes.
What do you get from it?
The satisfaction of conquering the cube then the realisation that you just spent ten hours learning how to twiddle a toy for two minutes.

The satisfaction of being able to solve worlds most difficult puzzle.
