Moyu 4*4 WeiSu 魔域威速

Surely it could be partly down to a similar variability in quality of WeiSus as well.

I think its more about the hype, expectation and the breaking in process. Out of the box it is good but only gets better. Breaking in, lubing, tensioning, and getting used to the feel (as opposed to the SS) may take a little while to get just right. Not many people say they DON'T like it, some just say its not as good as their SS which they are probably just really used to since its been most peoples mains for some time.
 
I suppose only the people with a very good SS 4x4 would use this as a paperweight. I probably am going to stick to my SS because I like that it's faster, but this cube is by no means bad or even just decent, it definitely performs greatly. Just not as well as a succesfully modded SS (in terms of raw speed).
 
Got mine today. It feels promising, and I'm sure gonna break it in properly before lubing it. A problem that I have are the tensions. Generally, how do you go about getting even tensions on all sides of a 4x4?
 
Mine arrived today :) I will get it from my dorm mail room at 4. YAY!

Same as with a 3x3 or any other puzzle. Measure a pennys width (maybe a little less) on each side between core/centerpiece > Assemble > adjust to taste with equal rotations of the screws.

That's my problem :)
During assembly I noticed that I tensioned it too tight, so I loosened just one side. Usually I do the even tensions before assembly.
I was just generally curious because on a 3x3, it's quite easy to see which side needs more tensioning when you pull the cubies apart(I don't tension that way, but still). On 4x4 however, if one side opens up wider as the other ones, I'm never sure if I need to tension that said site or 2 opposite sides next to the one that's loose.

Either way, it's not too bad right now, and I'll probably take it apart for lubing anyway I guess, I'll re-tension it then.

On a sidenote, the screws were like new, people seem to have problems with messed up screws, I guess I got lucky.
