Guhong or Lingyun?

Hybrid.

The LingYun pops a lot more, but is much faster. It mostly depends on if you like a fast or sturdy cube. And this belongs in The One Answer Question Thread.

Is the LingYun more stable than the Guhong? I really like my Guhong, but I find myself losing control of it frequently.

My guhong is faster than my lingyun
My guhong never pops, lingyun does
My guhong is tensioned so loose that if it was a half turn looser I could unscrew a side by turning it.

if you get the guhong , you'll never regret of your choice !
but for the lingyun , maybe ...

Problem is that LingYun's pieces are small than GuHong's pieces, making any hybrid extremely unstable.

Guhong is a little bigger than lingyun. I can increase my spinning speed to very fast by guhong, but not the solving speed. Guhong is too big for me. Lingyun fits my hands but it's pop drives me crazy...

Really? I find that my GuHong is much more speedy because there isn't any raised plastic so it creates one smooth motion unlike the LingYun.

No. The lingyun is definitely MUCH faster.. But faster need not necessarily mean better! I'll post a vid about this soon

Lol. On IRC Feliks said he doesn't uses the lingyun because it's too slow. Looks like some variance here.

I meant it in terms of turning speed. It's so fast that a U flick gives me a U2. Overall, the GuHong is a much better cube.

But faster need not necessarily mean better!

Two sub7 solves and a few World Records were done recently in WCA competitions using Dayan GuHong cubes. You could consider another cube if you're averaging around the 7 second mark and are having difficulties getting any faster. The best way to seriously consider another cube is to actually try it. Someone could describe what it's like but it's not the same.

Why are people describing cubes as fast here? What does that mean?

why is everyone saying that the lingyun pops??? I have a lingyun and it basically never pops

Because they do. Maybe not for you,but for many people. Even the reviews out there say they do.
