Since we're sharing speedcube recommendations, here's what I'd suggest.

As a beginner, get a MoYu RS3M 2021 (or one of the newer MoYu budget cubes). Watch the 10 minute tutorial by J Perm on YouTube, then watch RiDo's Hunting Story, it really improved my first 2 layers early on.

Once you approach sub-30, get a YS3M if you want to have a more controllable cube, or a WRM v9 if you want a faster cube, and get cube lube. If you're trying to get serious, invest in a SpeedStacks timer; it is a much better method of timing and it's used in competitions.

Also, go to competitions early on. It gives you a big motivator to improve. You can find competitions on the WCA website.

Good luck!

Harmonic is an excellent app.
