Excellent review!!!

I hope the black cubes are as nice as the whites!

One question...

1) How are the M slices (and how misaligned can the M slice be and still turn with and without torpedoes?)

GRRRRR... Now I have to wait an agonizing week in anticipation of a special package..... Curse the cruel world!

 

[Zbox95]

Thanks for the review, I'm considering to buy this cube!

Blacks are good but white is better. Its about 1/2 a cubie and it will still cut so pretty good thats with and without its just a little better but not much

Can you make a video showing that you aligned the cube again? I want proof or I can't sleep at night.

Nice review bruv. Is it just me, or are your cubes really dry though? It's like there's hardly any lube in them. You said that the LunHui has a weird turn to it and that it isn't that fast. I have all of the DaYan cube versions (have ordered the retail ZC, only have the first gen proto atm) and the LunHui is still the fastest and most smooth turner out of all of them. It's just pretty stubborn in terms of locking when I'm manhandling it.

I just watched the vid you posted asking about things you could do to optimize your YouTube stuff. I think your vids are pretty good. You have a very mature and calm voice and your presentation, albeit not perfect, is well done. If you have content you want to share then do just that. It doesn't matter to me as a viewer if the footage is long or short, if the content is knowledgeable and entertaining, I'll be back for more. The only tip I'd like to give you though is; be less of an "attention whore" on the forum. Nobody likes a know it all and frankly, that type of behavior only puts you in a negative light at the end of the day. And yeah, I dig that you're down with Lubix and all, but your reviews could do without the references. You're a good reviewer, try to make sh*t about you and your opinion. People are watching your stuff to get input on a new product and maybe even to soak up some of your charisma. Cut down on the cross sales aspect.

Kind regards,

H.

PS. Loved the way you mentioned the Gans I. You were about to reach over and grab it, but you didn't

Why u order it from 2 stores.

I had to order from Lightake anyway including a new magic, Shenshou 5x5 so added a couple to my order but shipping is slow and to UK and I am impatient. So I ordered from iCubemart too. I tend to keep a couple of each type of Dayan anyway. Not that I sell them, more OCD than practicality

Nice review bruv. Is it just me, or are your cubes really dry though? It's like there's hardly any lube in them.

He said that he lubed the core and pieces with Lubix to start and it was *too* fast so he cleaned it out and recommended that you just lube the core.

@ Tall

Really good review. Very organized, and the time skips really solved the issue of the length. You didn't miss a thing either. +1

Im not trying to cross sales and im not required to say anything but i only use lubix and so i think that people should know that because theirs might be with CRC and wonder my it doesnt turn like mine does. Also i know ur probably referring to "we all know this isnt the right sticker" but i love doing the transition and it looks cool that is only for me and not to try to sell it. sorry i will try to stop that in the future. And attention whore what are you referring to because im not trying to be buit if i am i would like to know how so i can t stop.

Pss. i was going to but i didnt see it and wanted to keep going so i didnt look too hard i should have had it ready for the review... ;p

There is no chemical process involved to change the white cube to black cube. A cube is black or white depending upon the color of the raw plastic material. There are some chemical processes for raw plastic materials to change colors, not for those cubes which already have been produced.

Also, not always white color of cubes were produced first, i.e., DaYan LunHui, black cubes were produced first, then, white color; and, DaYan ZhanChi, white cubes were produced first, then, black. Basically, it is a pure business decision, not required by the technical process procedures.
