DaYan GuHong review

Some of the posts have been ridiculous hype, "it's going to take the cubing world by storm even though I don't have one I bet it's the best thing ever".

Some however are legitimate opinions and the people who only post to put them down are just as bad imo.

I won't post about this silly cube again. I finally got my 4 f-iis. In my opinion guhong was better out of the box and better after lube than the av and f-ii. The memory is probably a close second to the guhong in my mind, but after trying a bunch of what people have said are among the best cubes available I'll still be sticking with guhongs for my mains.

For the people who keep saying it's all hype guhong is crap you may want to go back and read all the ridiculous hype since f-ii came out. From everything I read I expected them to be amazing, when I opened them they were nowhere near as good as guhong. So much for hype.

There is a million av vs f-ii threads but hardly do you see people who prefer one saying the other is crap, if you prefer a cube fine, it doesn't make the other choice garbage. This is good advice for future nonsensical arguments you may want to get into, liking one over the other doesn't make the other horrible.

Simply stated: The guhong isn't crap, prefer it or don't, no need to put people who do prefer it down.

I alsto got my guhong in the mail today.
It's good but not AMAZING. It's like my Haiyan memory, but the guhong feels more softer when cutting corners and solving. And yes, it does pop but I have not set the tension perfect yet. I would rate this 0.5 points (on a scale of 10) over my memory. I might just change my mind later.

I also manage to put the wrong colorscheme on while stickering it.(3rd side). Instead of peeling them off, I just changed 1 of the 3 pieces of the corner. If someone understands :)

How about lock-up? I'm still confused about that.

Thanks for that. I am now happy, as I ordered one.
Can't wait xD I did kinda expect it to be unbelievably good though, so I suppose when I get it, it will be a bit of a let down. Still sounds like a great cube, and I hope what Koreancuber said about it wearing out very fast is wrong, as he also said it has great plastic quality, which confuses me a little...
