I think I am going to like this cube so much better than the Fangshi. I won a nice coupon with the 'customer of the day' from Echo, and with that I am probably going to buy the silver Moyu as well

Are you still loving your Fangshi?

Never had one, but I neither had one with the Fangshi.
When I twist a corner with force, it takes the same ammount of force as for the Fangshi, and less than for a Zhanchi.

No, I hate it. I am a bit torn about it. I have great times (I mean PB breaking times) on my Fangshi. That is because it is forgiving in algs, and I do not mess up algs. How ever, turning the cube (at speedsolving) cost way more enery than Dayans. This has delivered me an injury on my left lower arm. I have not cubed the last few days (other than a forum competition solve here and there) because my arm hurts too much. I have a competition on Sunday and I really wish I had not used the Fangshi that much.
It's pretty safe to say I will not be using the fangshi at the competion. Moves with right hand are ok (because I am right handed) but my left hand is not strong enough for the Fangshi.

Corner twists on my Fangshi are the main disadvantage of this cube.
I have like one on every 5 solves...
It's very annoying, and I heard from a couple of reviews that corner twists very easily on Moyu.
I don't know how often does it occur during solves though.

That's exactly the way I feel, and a nice way of summing up what I was trying to describe on the Fangshi thread. Good luck with recovery of your arm!

Corner twists happens if your tension is too loose. I like my tension so that the cube can cut 45° but only barely and I have had 0 twists so far.
I also have a fangshi and I agree that it takes too much force to turn.

Corners can twist easily if you physically twist them

Black cubes come with white boxes, and white come with black boxes
So ive had it long enough to give you my opinion now
Its not very broken in tho, keep that in mind
+
Center caps very good. They dont fly off, yet fairly easy to get off.
No pops.
Great corner cutting
No lock ups
-
Loud
Not smooth at all
Cheap feeling, very hard plastic
Conclusion: Great cube, but I dont think most people will like the feeling of it. Im gonna keep playing with it tho, but ill probably end up with the zhanchi as usual!

I'm sorry but jeez, man up and try a Rubik's brand. Back when I started, that's what people used for their first year of cubing.
