Also, the edge pieces of the ZhanChi have V-cube 3-like wings.

ZhanChi, no competition.
Out of the Box:
GuHong- slow, bad cutting
ZhanChi- PreLubed with excellent lube, good cutting, almost 45
After Lubing:
GuHong- Great cutting (40-45), smooth, fast
ZhanChi- Fabulous cutting (45-60), smooth, lightning speed.
Pops:
GuHong- ~1/16 solves
ZhanChi- 1/500 solves
Note: I have my zhanchi with torpedoes. I haven't taken them out even though some people prefer it that way, I'm too lazy.

Boring? What makes a type-C more exciting?

I personally prefer the GuHong over the ZhanChi because I love the feel, but I get better times on the ZhanChi.

Hi Everyone,
I have just got my new ZanChi cubes and I gon a Guhong in the summer. My question is: Is it worth gluing the parts of elements or not?
I know a lot of cubers who don't glue them but does anyone have experience with gluing?

I don't think gluing is a good idea. Are you afraid that the parts will come off or something?

The center caps do come off...you might want to refer to this tutorial by Cameron Brown...

seriously guhong needs gluing.
or maybe just mine.
Edge pieces are okay but the corner peices are a disaster!!
there's something that holds the 3 small corner pieces together.
and that snaps on many medium-large corner cutting.
which makes 1 samll part of a corner piece to flop around..
And i dis assembly it and glue it and do that for all 8 corners ;;;;;;;;;;;;;
So i sold it .haha.
to a friend who doesn't really know that much about cubeing.
and i asked him to buy me a zhanchi.
and I love my zhanchi.
I have white, black, and stickerless.
and personally, I dont recommend 48 piont edge mod.
i did that to my guhong and lubed it with lubix.
it is really smooth but because you shaved off the bump, it kinda wants to over shoot.
for me, those bumps kinda controlls my speed.
and plus, i really like the feeling without mod .;

After looking over this thread for a while, this is the only comment that contains grammatical mistakes.
Advice: Less fragmented sentences.
OT: I love the zhanchi, the clickiness is amazing, but zhanchi is terrible without lubing.

Do you have to use stickers with the corners cut off, or will regular square stickers fit on the corner cubies?

If you get the small sized ones from CubeSmith you won't have to.
