Yes, I would consider it my main, but I still have the YLM M as sort of my other main. And I enjoy the YuLong V2 M and the Kylin V2 M as well that I like.
3x3 budget - YJ YuLong v2 M
3x3 great - Yuxin Little Magic M 3x3
3x3 expert - MoYu WeiLong WR M, GAN 356 X
Should MoYu MeiLong 3x3/ MoYu MeiLong 3x3 M be added to 3x3 budget?

No. There are better ones out there like the Yulong, little magic, etc...
Since the meilong M need to be self-magnetized, it is hard to recommend it to beginners. But I am thinking of adding the meilong non-magnetic to 3x3 budget since it is so cheap. However, is it still good without magnets?

I havn't tried, but according to speedcubereview, it is similar to the warrior w, which in my opinion is pretty bad.

It is not cheap enough that it is hard to be called a budget cube. Also, it is a flagship 3x3.
I meant for the 'great' section. It's only a little bit more expensive than the yj mgc v2 anyway.


Also, for the high end category, I think the Valk 3 ought to have a place there, as it is used by cubers all over the world,
same with the Gan air sm.

We should limit the number of puzzles to be recommended in each category to 2, since we don't want to see the list ending up with a bunch of puzzles. If those cheaper flagships are considered to be added to great, we will have so much cubes in great. There are yuxin Huang Long M, Valk 3 M, DaYan TengYun M, MoYu WeiLong GTS 2 M…
Also, isn't the yuxin little magic m 3x3 good enough to be put in great? It is the winner in the poll above.
