Mine just showed up.

Another note: My cube got a lot better after about 75 solves or so. I'll do a good average of 12 with reduction later and upload that tonight, along with a full review sometime soon. All I've done to mine is tension it, use maru and z lube, and do a ton of solves.

Can you open yours up (or remove two edges and an inner piece) and see if any little chips come out?

 

[cuber8208]

I sent it to an address I moved out of a year ago. Luckily the young lady who answered the door was understanding and is happy for me to pop round for it when it arrives.

Mine should be coming soon too, glad I double checked the shipping address now ;D I nearly did an 'Adam' too...

There was me thinking I'd done a 'Chris'.
However I did order the other half a gear cube for Xmas and sent it to an old address.
I never got round to picking it up.

 

[Rubiks560]

So, after doing a ton of solves, I've decided this thing is awesome.
I can't see many people not liking this cube.

So, the cube is out, and has been for a while, and I still haven't received my Prototype. Calvin, (I don't mean to be mean or disrespectful, I'm just curious) isn't the point of prototype testers to show the public what the cube is like BEFORE it comes out? I still enormously appreciate you sending all of us free cubes, I just don't understand.

Thanks!

Update, Dan just PMed me some information:

Just so you know, you are the rest of the testers are not getting a prototype version. you are getting the mass produced versions just like everybody else. Just wanted to clear that up. The point is not to have it in your hands before it goes on sale, the point is to give 10 people a free cube so they can make a review. Time frame has nothing to do with it, as you have one week after getting it to make the review anyway. When Calvin received his inventory of the puzzles, that's when he sent them out. The reason I got my white one so early is because that is the one and only physical copy he got, being the prototype. They send him that much earlier than the production copies. You are all getting black, stickered versions from what I've been told by Calvin.

Thanks to Dan for explaining this to me, as I was confused before.

How is it?

To everyone who has already received a Weisu: We're all here hanging on the edge of our seats...

 

[yoshinator]

How is it?

Out of the box, and even after lubing it, and about 15 solves, it was atrocious. I couldn't even get sub-40. Now on the other hand, it's feeling quite a bit better, and I imagine it will continue to get better.

I'm sort of at the same position (except not nearly as fast as you). I have done about 60 solves and its ok. Whenever I loosen it, it becomes amazing but explodes like every two solves. Hopefully with a few hundred solves it will be better.

 

[Rubiks560]

Just do a lot of solves first. I did like 70 before cleaning and stuff.

Do you want a video?
If so, what exactly do you want in it?

 

[antoineccantin]

Arrgggh, still haven't got it yet

 

[Mollerz]

Just got one the other day, feels kind of awful straight out the box. The only pops I've received are the small internal pieces, and you can pretty much finish a solve with one missing anyway.

I did about 50 solves, took it apart, lubed it and everything, and put it back together. I did more solves and it felt bad still. But, I'm getting pretty good times, and the cube feels like it is always improving. I'd like to see how it feels after maybe 1k+ solves.

Video, yes!

Tell us what you think of it, whether you like it... try some solves on it, tell us if it's improving from breaking in. What it feels like? Compare it (and show on video) to SS on speed, corner cutting, reverse cutting, outer and inner layers, pop-resistance, etc.

At least 7 minutes of corner cutting as it seems to be very important to everybody who's making cubing related videos!

Make sure to give an in-depth analysis of the stickers!

It must show you doing 45 degree corner cuttings for 7 minutes exactly, then you must analyze the pieces for 5 more minutes, then analyze the stickers and how well they hold up to attempting to peel them with your fingernails for 5 minutes. At the last 30 seconds mention it turns nicely without catching.

 

[Lchu613]

No. You must review the cube by showing its exact length, width, and height, and complaining that it is 1 nanometer wider than it is tall. You must then take the advice of MeMyselfAndPi and complain that it knocked off V-Cube, and knocked off the mod you created. You must then try to flush the cube down the toilet to demonstrate that it does not fit down the drain and is therefore too big.

 

[mark49152]

Do the sexy move as fast as you can a few times, then solve it - slowly. Only one solve though. Then more corner cutting!

Oh and dissemble and show us the pieces, but make sure to use a black cube so we can't see them well.
