Oh dang okay.
I had a pop on my AoShi WRM 6x6 earlier today(internal) so that was fun.
The Mega is the Dayan Pro M and the 4x4 is the AoSu.
How does the Hong stack up to cubes like the MGC and the Valk (providing you've tried either/both)?
Abram Grimsley
Veteran
I can't compare the Hong to either of those cubes. I have a valk, but refuse to open it from It's package. And I haven't tried the MGC.
But, It is a very good cube.

I understand the Valk part (I bought mine pre-owned for like half the price so I didn't have a choice lol) but how haven't you tried the MGC? That's honestly one of the most surprising things I've heard on these forums.
Abram Grimsley
Veteran
I tried the MGC 4x4 and had a bad experience with it. so, I never got around to buying a 3x3.

I haven’t either, because my old 5x5 was $7 Dayan something, and my new 5x5 is the qiyi MS that I got used for 10 bucks.

Where you not talking about 3x3???? now I'm confused. This is why I hate cube names!
NebraskanSpeedsolver

We were talking about 5x5s lol
The Hong 5x5 comparing to the Valk 5 and MGC 5x5 ( I wasn't super clear lol )
Abram Grimsley
Veteran
Ahhh, ok. I don't have a valk 5, but I do have an MGC 5x5. Compared to the MCG, I like the Hong better. The MGC has better inner layers, but that's probably because I haven't set up the Hong. I'm using factory settings, because I'm too scared to mess with it.
NebraskanSpeedsolver
Legend
If you wanna try one, I can send you mine to test it out
If you think the MGC is good, just wait till you try this thing
Currently I'm averaging sub-1:50 on the Valk
Abram Grimsley
Veteran
nah, I'm good. I'm almost sub-1:50 with the Hong. If try an Valk, who knows If I could recover. lol

wait, how do you have a qiyi ms ball-core?

He might mean QiYi M Pro Ball-Core?
