It’s really just your personal opinion so there really isn’t an objective better

I've tried the concave and the sculpted Galaxy. The concave locks up and turns badly. The sculpted is good.

 

[AbsoRuud]

MeiLong for both of them.

I have heard that lube sticks to the outside of sculpted and is super hard to wipe off and makes it slippery

its easy if you use a slightly wet cloth/towel

 

[Triangles_are_cubers]

the sculpted v2 lm i have is a little concave too, plus its great. i recommend sculpted

What's a good 5-10 dollar skewb? I was thinking about the QiCheng/ QiCheng A.

The Cyclone Boys magnetic. It's great.

 

[Cube Tribe]

The Cyclone Boys magnetic. It's great.

I think that it's pretty good but it is slightly bumpy although it turns pretty smoothly, and sometimes spring noise can be heard which can be a disadvantage for some people...
Edit: I do like it and recommend it for its cheap price and its very good quality.

Thx! I will get a sculpted one.

mf3rs2 or mf3rs3?

 

[PetrusQuber]

mf3rs2 or mf3rs3?

RS3, I think the main thing is it’s faster.

 

[AbsoRuud]

mf3rs2 or mf3rs3?

They don't make the 2 anymore.

 

[Sub1Hour]

They don't make the 2 anymore.

you can still find it in stores but you have to magnetize them yourself

Black or normal YLM Square 1? Also is it worth upgrading from a Moyu Magnetic skewb to something better if I average around 7 seconds?

 

[ProStar]

Black or normal YLM Square 1?

Whichever looks better in your opinion, there is no better option

Has anyone tried or made their own Angstrom Tengyun v1 because i might buy one off a friend

You can't make your own Angstrom. You can setup a cube similar to the way it might be set up as an Angstrom, but Angstrom is a company/service, not a style

You can setup a cube with angstrom lubes and it will basically feel the same

They do more then just dump angstrom lube in

Technically it is a "style" since there are tutorials on how to lube your cube exactly as the cubicle does, and from my experience home-lubed angstrom cubes feel very similar to the pre-lubed angstrom cubes.

I want to get a new main because I don’t like my Gts2m and cubes have been coming out with customizable features. I was thinking of getting a gan. However, I’m not sure whether or not to wait to see what gan’s new 3x3 will be in June or go ahead and buy one now. As far as I know it could be a million times better than the xs or slightly worse. I just don’t know. I’m fine with waiting but if there is no reason to wait then I might as well get the xs now. Thoughts?
