DaYan Zhanchi vs GuHong

[TheNoob]

Can't really compare as I have only tried a Guhong V2, but it is very smooth and quite fast, however, I think I might actually prefer a "clickier" cube like the zhanchi, I hope to be getting one within the next month (still need to wait about a week to order and then however long shipping takes).

Also lol at your sig, 11.62s to solve a 1x1? 5x as long as it took for the 2x2...

my zhanchi woops ass but now it pops every solve. and i think the V2 is newer and faster with a rare pop.

Guhong V2 has never popped on me. Got mine serviced from iCubemart and I also have a Zhanchi serviced from there. I prefer the zhanchi.

I like the Guhong V2 more because of it's smoothness. Both cubes have the speed, corner cutting, and same stickers, so I just like the movement of the Guhong

Tough call. I'm bouncing back and forth between the two right now. When tensioned and lubed the same, they are not much different from each other. Slight difference in feel and V2 clickiness. Love them both!

I'm definitely a Zhanchi guy. I don't personally own a V2, but I've used some, and I can definitely tell my Z-Silk and regular Zhanchi are just so much better.

 

[TheNoob]

interesting

To be able to vote you should have to OWN and use both. Like I said when they are tensioned and lubed the same they are so similar you can't easily call one better than the other.

The zhanchi and guhong are completely different cubes. The guhong is a full contact cube, while the zhanchi has very little contact. This gives the zhanchi a clicky feel, while the guhong has a very smooth feel. I like a fully modded and lubed guhong better than a zhanchi. But my favorite cube is the lingyun ii because it is like a hibrid between the two. Btw, a fully modded and lubed zhanchi is still amazing, but I just don't like the clicky feel.

hey guys thanks before reading this i was over the fence but now i think i wanna get the guhong over the zhanchi so thanks!

I prefer the Guhong V2. I think I overlubed my Zhanchi.

Zhanchi for speed, Guhong for smoothness.

Zhanchi more likely to pop, Guhong, hardly ever pop.

 

[Tristan97tfj]

Zhanchi for clicky feel, Guhong v2 for smoothness, Zhanchi for speed and the Guhong is quieter, not that it matters much.
They both have very similar corner cutting.

for the past week when i've been waking up and grabbing my cube to do solves for the day, later on when i go back to my room i realize i've been using my guhong all day and not really noticing just due to how smooth it is, so i've actually just been comfortable using either one to speedcube lately lol.

they do have palpable noticeable differences, but either way you get a good cube that each have their own advantages.

like both personally

is it just me or that zhanchis are smoother

me and my friends zhanchis arae both slightly crispy but compared to guhongs from many of our friends, they are a lot crispier(the guhongs)

why is this?

I prefer the Guhong V2. I think I overlubed my Zhanchi.

What lube did you use? My Zhanchi is un-lubed

Guhong is so much better than the Zhanchi and Have a video on youtube explaining why.

Dont worry, the zhanchi is amazing, its just preference. it doesnt overshoot once you learn to control it, I went from crappy rubiks to zhanchi and its not too fast at all.

 

[BlackStahli]

idk about my guhong, but i put CRC it in and it was pretty damn fast, but didn't corner cut as easily as my zhanchi. probably because i used lubix on my zhanchi hehe
but anyway, out of the box, even after freshly lubing it, i feel like the zhanchi is better. i just looove the crispy feel as opposed to the smooth feel of the guhong. too bad that crispiness only lasts for a month or so of usage before breaking in :/
