How to solve a 4x4

Build the centres, pair up the edges, then solve it like a 3x3. Plus two parity formulas for what a 3x3 never shows.

  1. WARM-UP

    Read the notation

  2. STEP 1

    The white centre

  3. STEP 2

    The yellow centre

  4. STEP 3

    The four side centres

  5. STEP 4

    Pair the 12 edges

  6. STEP 5

    Solve it like a 3x3

  7. STEP 6

    OLL parity: one flipped edge

  8. STEP 7

    PLL parity: two edges swapped
