How to submit
These days, as you know 3x3 hardware is super good, and cubes at any price range are going to be great. Because of this, I feel like there isn't a best 3x3 and you should pick your cube based on what kind of feel you want. I made this thread in order to make a list of all of the relevant cubes and their traits/feel, to make it easier to choose a cube.
You cannot submit a cube that you do not own.
This is going to be community contributed, to add your cube and it's description fill out this form:
If the cube you'd like to contribute is already on the thread, but you have a different opinion, then please still post it. I will merge it with the existing description. I'll be keeping this for fairly relevant 3x3s only for now.
$0-$10
$10-$20
Qiyi Wuwei ($15)
Feel: Clacky, Smooth-ish. Feels like a mix between the GTS3 and Valk 3
Magnet strength: In between moderate and strong
Stability: Extremely High
Speed: Above average
Matte Finish: No
Good lubes for the cube: Angstrom Dignitas, Angstrom Gravitas, DNM-37
Who would like this cube (optional): People who enjoyed the stability of the valk but want something faster
@Sub1Hour
$20-$30
$30-$40
Dayan Tengyun V2 M ($32)
Feel (scratchy, smooth, etc): Scratchy/sandy initially, smooth with break-in and lube, feels decently blocky and clean at tight settings
Magnet strength (if it's customizable just write customizable): Customisable
Stability: Very good, I perform just fine on even low settings, though I dislike the feeling
Speed: Quite fast, but not noticeable until you use a slower cube, it’s so stable
Matte Finish: Sort of matte, becomes glossy
Good lubes for the cube: Heavy weight lubes (3-5) for added smoothness and control, as well as faster lubes like DNM-37 in case you find it too slow after making it smooth (base speed is quite fast though, my settings are quite tight and I have used some 30K, which is why mine feels slightly slow)
Who would like this cube (optional): People looking for a good all rounder, at a decent price, with all the customisability you need.

$40-$50
$50-$60
Edit: Added @Sub1Hour's idea of "Who would like this cube"
