GAN 460 M

[Garf]

Yesterday, I recieved a GAN 460 M as a birthday gift. I have been messing around with it for a little bit, and I can say that it has been broken in significantly. However, whether I will use it or not, will be said after my review.
This is my review of the GAN 460:
Packaging: not a lot of it, with a container for the cube, wrapping around it.
Components that come with cube: adjustment tool (the old school one that was used before the new GES systems), bag, instructions for solving + adjustment of tensions
The cube itself: ootb, the out layers were very faster, whilst the inner layers were very catchy. It was loud, and a little clicky. After breaking in, the cube did get a little quieter, though not by much. The inner layers became less catchy, but I still have trouble with them,
Cornercutting: Outer layers have trouble cutting up to a full piece, whilst the inner layers have trouble cutting even half a piece. The corner design is gods-awful, with there being an extra stalk underneath the base of the corner piece. This may be the reason of the bad corner cutting.
Tensioning: this cube can't even tension. I have tried, but I can't seem to figure it out.
Solving: I did an AO12 with the 460 and my YJ MGC 4x4, and if you take a look at this document that I have set up, the MGC is better.

Also, let's talk about price. I got better times with the MGC, which a 20 dollar cube, than the 460, which is a 55 dollar cube.
So should you buy the 460? No. Is it bad? Not really, it's just bad for it's price.

Okay, I changed my mind about the tension: It CAN tension, it just wasn't the usual GAN tensioning. It is more unscrewing a screw from the bottom, if that makes sense.
