Overview

  • Preorders are live at $299 with delivery targeted before the holiday season.
  • The gadget replaces stickers with twenty‑four 240×240 IPS displays across eight modules, each with its own processor, plus motion sensors and eight speakers.
  • Games and utilities are installed via the WOWCube Connect app on iOS or Android over Bluetooth, with an online catalog listing about 47 titles.
  • The system runs CubiOS and includes a free developer kit to enable third‑party apps built for its rotating, multi‑screen layout.
  • Battery‑life claims remain inconsistent—reported as five hours by one outlet and up to seven hours by the maker—and the device uses a proprietary charger; an optional WowClub Pass adds extra apps, tools, and perks.
