Downgrade from V1 Cubes
on February 21, 2025
Posted by: Luis C
I purchased the V2 version of the camera cubes, but they’ve been a letdown. First and foremost, the height of the cubes is significantly lower compared to the V1 cubes I own. As a result, various items, such as my 24-70mm lens and a small flash, protrude from the top. Secondly, the pocket attachments in the V2 cubes are inferior to those in the V1 version. The lack of the organization mesh in the V2 version prevents items like batteries and SD cards from being neatly held. Thirdly, the side access on the V2 cubes appears smaller, making it more challenging to retrieve your camera from the bag compared to the V1 cubes. In conclusion, these cubes represent a downgrade from the V1 version. None of the other “upgrades” matter to me since these cubes are designed to be used inside bags. V2 cubes are a complete letdown. If possible, I recommend purchasing V1 cubes while supplies last.
As an item, with function as its main utility, I couldn't be happier. The size, protection and insert capabilities are second to none. But please, add a couple of straps on the exterior of the bag for easier holding and transporting of the cube.
I have several Peak Design bags for different occasions, with the compatibility of the V2 cubes my gear is ready to go in whichever bag I need at the moment, just plug and play!
Bought all 3 sizes (sm, md, lg). The cubes offer great flexibility to arrange your gear. Having different sizes fit the the purpose of any trip. Awesome to easily pack into one side of a hard shell roller case with great protection leaving room for clothing. With more use it may even be a 5 *****
I received the large cube last month and have changed my layout until I found what works best for me. I love how I can change the layout for when I get new lenses.
I got this to hold my new drone. The Small size is perfect for my drone, the remote controller, with room to spare. Right now I’m using the extra room for sunscreen and bug spray. But it would also hold extra batteries. I like the moveable pocket. I’m using mine with a PD strap I already had.
