My new 4x4x4 Rubik's cube!

Thanks to my cousin I've been able to solve 3x3x3 Rubik's cubes for a year and half or so, time to upgrade!
I did some googling and had a look at the official Rubik's cube website, and although it wasn't really expensive (20$), shipping to Spain was 31$ or so, and took from 1 to 2 MONTHS! finally I had a look at Toys'R'Us' website (I had to copy-paste it, I never get the name right when typing) and found it!
15 minutes walking from university and I was standing on a Toys'R'Us door (lucky me it opened a few months ago, otherwise I'll still be on my way there), 15€ and voila!
I've been playing with it for half an hour or son, and I've managed to get all centers where they're supposed to be (all by myself, promise! no algorithms!), see how long it takes for me to solve it entirely

  1. 4x4x4 is more difficult not only because there are more pieces, but also since the algorithm is different. Therefore, 5x5x5 is easier than your new acquisition.
