this is the easiest way YouTube - How to solve a Rubik's Cube (Part One)
best tutorial for beginners. with this tutorial you will solve it first time in 15-20 minutes.

Yeah, pogobat's tutorials are great for beginners.
For the 3x3, my best time was around 47 seconds but on average no more than 1m30s.
With Rubik's Revenge (4x4) My best is 3m21s
And the Rubik's Professor cube (5x5), 1h21m (Needs some practice)

I have no idea exactly how long but it was the first time, definitely more than 3 months. I just dissected the thing until i knew how everything worked and then proceeded slowly and then gradually built up speed solving it. now I can look at it and usually get it in 2++ minutes.

around 2 mins. started off with tuts but now can do it by memory

around 5 mins, my first complete time was like 4/5 hours with tutorial

its been 9 years now. still havn't solved that ma'fuckah

I can't solve it either... I once tried following a youtube guide but I got bored and dropped out after 3 minutes. I really DONT like rubics cube :p . On the other hand, I am fairly competent with metal and wooden puzzles such as the hanayama
