Thread: Dian Sheng or YJ 3x3?

  1. #1

    Default Dian Sheng or YJ 3x3?

    I'm after a white 3x3 but I'm not sure which to go for.

    Note, I HATE lockups.

    1QAT...

    Both of those choices are not very good and lock up alot. Out of those 2.. YJ. But overall, there are alot better white cubes out there.

    Yea as Cuberkid10 said both cubes aren't that great... You're better off getting a GuHong or LingYun (If possible still... :\) but in my opinion if you had to choose between those two cubes, Choose the YJ 3x3 it doesn't lock up as much compared to the Dian sheng

    Thanks guys, guess I'll go for the YJ then. As I've been looking through the 3x3 white cubes on ebay with the listings starting from the lowest price + p&p, and so far I've only seen YJ's, Dian Sheng's, and unknown cubes, until the prices of them are now getting into the £10 range. It does seem a bit expensive to be payng £10 or more for a 3x3, so I think I'll just buy the cheapest YJ.

    Or you can try this cube its smaller than the average cube and better than the two up there, but is noisy...
    but a good cube overall

    Are you just limited to ebay? I suggest going to another online store for puzzles.

    My YJ is locky as hell. I would say Diansheng, but I haven't tried the DS.

    Put some silicone in it and then loosen the tension to your liking.
