[Review] MoYu HuaLong

[cashis]

Can anyone comment on how this is compared to the Guangying

Guanying?

Guanying?

No. I spelled it right

Oh, come on! Now that I had almost decided to buy a Yueying here comes Moyu and mixes the Weilong with the Aolong and also put some corner holes Liying-style for good measure to get me confused again This cube mixes what I like most of all the best Moyu cubes. Will I improve a 0.01 if I buy it? (just kidding). No, seriously, it's a temptation, really. The Gans 357 I bought last is too twisty for my taste.

It honestly doesn't feel like a Wailing mixed with Aolong. I almost feel like it is the feel of Weilong with the airy-ness of Fangshi.

Edit: I feel like it's a mix between a WeiLong and a GuanLong. I do not feel like this is an upgrade... at the moment. I haven't broken it is yet though.

@Cubeologist

Did you ever measure this cube? I have heard it is 56.5mm and not 57.

Anyway, if I ever buy it, it will not be for the 0.1 I could improve my average, but because of having it in my collection of over 12 3x3s now I still have a lot of room for improvement with any of my current cubes. But knowing from others how it feels I can at least imagine if it's going to suit my taste. Being comfortable with your main cube is also important and can affect your times more than the real "improvement" the cube can give.

I put up a review on the site (http://www.speedcubereview.com/moyu-hualong.html). I will be making a video by the end of the week.

I've done a few hundred solves and I really want to like this cube, but I feel like it is a GuanLong with better corner-cutting. It just feels cheap in my hands and although has nice corner cutting, definitely is nothing exceptional to brag about.

Here is my unboxing if anyone is interested. I do compare the pieces to a weilong and aolong v2.

So, you've tried the Gans356 and the Hualong... so if they're both equally good cubes in different ways in your opinion (if not, say otherwise) who would you recommend the Hualong to, and who would you recommend the Gans356 to?

On your website, when you go to see the V-Cube 7 review, the title says V-Cube 4. I really like this website and I will be visiting it more in the future before buying puzzle.

I will be getting the Gans 356 over this...Till then the GuangYing is for me.

Thank you. It is fixed now. I hope the site will be a big help in the future!

Great review. Any chance you could post the videos to YouTube to make it easier to subscribe?

The videos are on YouTube. If you click the "youtube" button on the bottom right of the video on the site it will take you to the video directly on Youtube. Maybe in the future I will post the SCR link as well as a YouTube direct link.

Aha! The YouTube links weren't showing up on my phone. Subscribed!

I myself don't know if I should get a Gans356, Hualong, or Yuxin, because all of them have such mixed reviews. I might be going with the Hualong because I love fast cubes, but I love the aolongs and how they feel and people say this feels nothing like it. They're probably all better than my worn down Aolong V1 though (I used to use Jigaloo so the plastic is soft)
