Noice a cube thread.
>>5481677>they seem very passionate about the cubes' quality and performance.Yeah, cubes feel very different and you want them performing their best so you can get good times and have fun. A slow cube that locks up and pops isn't fun at all.
http://www.bestspeedcube.com/Some listed there.
I started on the Rubik's original one and it's fucking slow, doesn't corner cut etc but I learnt the beginner's method on it. You could probably lube it and tension it right to make it okay but still get a speedcube. They feel really uncontrollable at first but you'll get used to it and get faster and faster.
Dayan cubes are good, I've had three zhanchis and a 2x2 and really like them. I'll probably get the Dayan Megaminx at some point, heard it needs re-lubing to make it good though. Dayan cubes come with a logo stick on the white centre but you can peel it off.
Got a stickerless MoYu AoLong V2 the other day and it's VERY nice, I think I prefer it to the zhanchi, it feels great, but it's early days yet.
My Collection so far is
>Shengshou PyraminxHaven't solved it that much but it feels good and is quick
>Dayan 2x2Quick and good quality but I'm not sure if I like the feel of it
>Dayan Zhanchi 3x3As I said, great cube
>MoYu AoLong V2 3x3 stickerlessAgain very good
>Shengshou 4x4Not great. It's quick but locks up A LOT
>YuXin 4x4 stickerlessNew, haven't solved it much, the lubing is weird, the edges and corners are very fast and smooth but the centres feel like they've been barely lubed.
>Shengshou 5x5Good, quick, but can pop if you're not careful.
>Shengshou MegaminxOkay. Locks up, not that fast, just doesn't feel that great but is solid and reasonable quality.
>YJ YuHu Megaminx stickerlessAbsolute shit. Waste of money. Arrived basically unlubed. Lubed it and even though it's fast it locks up constantly and feels like it's going to fall apart at any moment.
Wouldn't get Shengshou cubes again, hit and miss, great value for money though.
