Rubik’s WOWCube adds complexity, possibility by reinventing the puzzle cube
Summary
Ars Technica reviews Cubios' Rubik’s WOWCube, a $399 multi-screen cube that reinvents the classic puzzle with eight modules and built-in sensors. The piece highlights tradeoffs between added versatility (games, widgets, and app integration) and downsides like limited traditional puzzle difficulty, battery life, uneven tilting controls, and privacy concerns with companion apps, arguing the WOWCube is intriguing but not a replacement for the original.
