Installation options and suggestions for Rubik's Cube screens with different numbers of sides

LED Magic Cube Screens, as a visually striking 3D display form, have gained popularity due to their multi-faced design and flexible spatial structure. They are widely used in exhibitions, brand islands, window displays, art installations, stage designs, and more.
Compared to traditional flat screens, Magic Cube Screens capture attention from multiple angles and present more dynamic content in limited spaces.
However, when facing different project needs, many customers often ask: “What size should I choose?” “Should I go for P2.5 or P1.8?” “Should I use a 5-face or 6-face structure?” “How do I ensure the installation is secure and looks great?”
This article will guide you through the selection logic of Magic Cube Screens, focusing on pixel pitch and size, structure face selection, and installation methods, helping you make a more professional and efficient decision for your next project.

1. Selection Logic for Different Pixel Pitch and Screen Size

Magic Cube Screens are commonly used for close-up viewing within a 1–5 meter range, so the focus should be on clarity (pixel pitch) and overall size coordination.

  • Stage Performances/Outdoor Decorations: P3.91, large-size, high-brightness, waterproof models

2. Choosing Structure Face Count Based on Environment and Viewing Angle

The “face count” of the Magic Cube directly determines its visibility and visual impact. Different face combinations are suitable for different display needs.

Column screen, pillar wrap

Full surround

Mall pillars, airport signage pillars, square islands

5 faces

Open-top cube

Multi-directional

Display tables, interactive islands, exhibition installations

6 faces

Complete cube (Magic Cube)

Stage installations, aerial visuals, art installations

Structure Selection Suggestions:

  • For front-only display content: Choose 1–2 face structures

  • For island displays or attracting viewers from multiple angles: Opt for 4 or 5 faces

  • For suspended displays or artistic scenes: Choose a 6-face complete structure

3. Matching Installation Methods with Structure and Design

LED Magic Cube Screens are compact in design but offer multiple installation options. These should be matched with the usage environment, design style, and safety considerations.

Installation Method

Compatible Faces

Typical Scenarios

Installation Key Points

Standing Installation

3–5 faces

Display counters, island booths

Use stands or weighted bases, run cables from the bottom, ideal for flexible setups

Hanging Installation

5–6 faces

Above stage, aerial installations

Calculate weight load on suspension points, factory pre-assembly suggested, stabilize hanging ropes

Wall-mounted Installation

1–2 faces

Background walls, corners

Fixed to the wall, use custom connectors for corners, leave maintenance space

Embedded Installation

1–3 faces

Display walls, showcases

Reserve cutouts for structure and ventilation, coordinate with interior design in advance

Slanted/Custom Installation

Any faces

Art scenes, interactive guides

Custom brackets, pre-set angles by the factory, ensure center of gravity and safety

Installation Suggestions:

  • For repeated use: Recommend standing installations with detachable stands

  • For art/stage setups: Prefer hanging installations with hidden wiring

  • For rotating/custom shapes: Pre-assemble and transport as a whole in the factory to ensure consistency
