TL;DR: Level up your puzzle game with a 2-pack of Rubik’s Connected Pro Smart Cubes for just $79.99 (reg. $159.90) — a Bluetooth-enabled, app-connected twist on the classic cube.


You know the Rubik’s Cube — the one that’s been tormenting coffee tables and classrooms since the ’80s. But this isn’t that cube. This is the Rubik’s Connected Pro, and it’s what happens when a nostalgic brain teaser gets a serious tech upgrade.

Whether you’ve always wanted to learn how to solve the cube or you’re already a bit of a speedcuber looking to shave seconds off your time, the Rubik’s Connected is designed to help you learn, improve, and compete — all from your smartphone or tablet. And right now, you can get two smart cubes for just $79.99, so you’ll always have one to battle your sibling, roommate, or that one coworker who insists they’re “just naturally good at puzzles.”

Let’s start with the basics. The cube connects via Bluetooth to the Rubik’s Connected app, which walks you through the solving process step-by-step with interactive tutorials. It tracks your cube’s position in real-time, gives instant feedback on your moves, and even records stats like solve time, move efficiency, and progress over time.

Once you’ve got the hang of it? Compete in app-based challenges or go head-to-head with other users around the world. Want to spice up your family game night or office breakroom battle? Just pair both cubes and get solving.

Beyond the fun, it’s also a sneaky way to boost spatial reasoning, memory, logic, and fine motor skills, making it a surprisingly effective tool for STEM learning and brain training. And it’s great for all ages, from curious kids to competitive adults.
