I cant decide which to buy bcoz others say dayan is the best while others will say moyu is way better than dayan. Also,which is the best dayan cube and best moyu cube?

In my opinion, most Moyu cubes are designed mainly for faster solvers (sub-12.5ish). Whereas, Dayan can be used for both faster and solver solvers alike. Although, at recent competitions I've been to, the majority of cubes (60-65%) are now Moyu.

Overall, I just think it's a wiser choice to buy Moyu cubes when you are at a level that matches Moyu cubes.
 
It's personal preference. However, the moyu cubes seem to be more popular now, and it is breaking some world records such as the 3x3 average.

The most popular dayan cube is the zhanchi and the most popular moyu cube is probably the weilong.
 
I am definetely not a world class solver (average 20) but I love the Moyu Weilong, but the Dayan Zhanchi is also an excellent cube! Buy whichever, but the Moyu cubes might be a bit fast for you!
 
Honestly, it all comes down to personal preference. Like ChickenWrap said, moyu cubes may be a bit fast for you. I'm almost a sub 11 solver, and the Moyu Weilong is a little too fast for me. I use a 55mm Zhanchi. Many people may disagree with this, but when you just start speed cubing, don't get world class cubes. They aren't going to make you faster because world class people use it, you get fast from finding a cube that fits you and practicing.
 
Thanks guys, btw i can solve it in 1:45 not impressive so which is a better cube for a person like me? (My hands r kinda small so which size is the best for my hands?)

Thought this might help.
(this is one of my older videos, they are more planned out nowadays)

The most popular dayan cube is the zhanchi and the most popular moyu cube is probably the weilong.

The Guhong is also very popular
 
I remember when the zhanchi came out and people said what you guys are saying about moyu cubes now...
Hardware is still improving so just get the best you can so you can keep up with it, I guess :)
 
Moyu is now obviously the most dominant brand right now but then again they are still in the middle of producing a 5x5,6x6,Pyra and a Skewb so if those turn out good (I am quite sure that they will be) they will wipe out the other brands.
But some of the older cubers that are too lazy or lacking on greens are just sticking with Zhanchis or Fangcuns,etc.
 
My weilong sucks, I've never really been a fan.

Right now I'm back to using a zhanchi as my main, it's all personal preference, nowadays all top cubes are pretty much of the same quality.
 
Well, it all depends. For me, I use a Moyu Huanying. But does that mean moyu is 'better'? No.

Also, megaminx. Moyu has no megaminx. Dayan wins in that aspect.
 
I appreciate your replys but which cube is cheaper? (My lucky pb is 1min 17 secs normal pb is 1 min 40 secs using unlubed rubiks brand) Btw,which cube should i get for my 1st speedcube? (Any brand welcome)

Depending on the cube, Moyu is USUALLY cheaper. As for your first cube, I recommend a Shengshou Aurora. You can get it at ezspeedcubes.com
