YJ MGC Square-1 V2 (White + Black) – UV-Coated Magnetic Square-1 with Black Side

The YJ MGC Square-1 V2 (White + Black) is the latest premium version of the popular MGC Square-1, combining magnetic stability, a UV-coated finish, and a black-side colour scheme for a more distinctive and modern look.

Built on the success of the original MGC Square-1, the V2 introduces a glossy UV-coated exterior that provides improved grip and a more premium feel compared to the frosted V1. This helps maintain control during faster solves, while the magnetic system ensures consistent alignment and smooth turning throughout.

This version features a white + black colour scheme, which is a popular choice among Square-1 solvers who prefer the contrast and cleaner look of a black face. At approximately 54×56mm, it remains compact and comfortable to use for both practice and competition.

Key Features

• Magnetic positioning – improved stability and accurate layer alignment
• UV-coated exterior – glossy, grippy finish for better control
• White + black colour scheme – popular alternative to standard yellow
• 54×56mm size – compact and ergonomic for all solving styles

Why Choose the White + Black Version?

This version is ideal for cubers who prefer a black-side Square-1 setup, offering stronger visual contrast and a slightly different look compared to traditional white + yellow cubes. The UV coating enhances both grip and appearance, making it feel noticeably more premium in hand.

Compared to the MGC Square-1 V1, the V2 provides a more polished finish and improved grip, while maintaining the same reliable magnetic performance.

If you prefer the standard colour scheme, the white + yellow version is also available with the same performance and features.

Who is it for?

The MGC Square-1 V2 (White + Black) is best suited for cubers looking for a premium Square-1 with a black face, as well as those who want the latest version of the MGC series with improved grip and finish.

It’s a great option for both intermediate and advanced solvers, or anyone upgrading from an older or non-magnetic Square-1.
