MoYu Aolong V2

Anybody have center cap issues?

I lost my orange center cap and had to order a replacement off of thecubicle.

They come off really easily, unlike my v1 and other cubes.

Anybody have center cap issues?

Never, and I've done a lot of solves. I have a reasonably hard time pulling them off even when I want them off.

Started using it for BLD, and it immediately beat the ShuangRen V2 and Aurora as my new BLD main. Stable, smooth, and faster than the Aurora, but not uncontrollably so. I love this thing.

i stilll prefer the v1 aolong.. than this.. corner twist doesnt happen often to me maybe becuase of my turning style

Has anyone reviewed the second batch of the V2 with the shiny plastic? I'd like to see how it performs without the sluggishness.

Has anyone reviewed the second batch of the V2 with the shiny plastic? I'd like to see how it performs without the sluggishness.

I got the one with the box with clear plastic and a tab, so it's supposed to be the one with the plastic that performs better, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be shinier. However, I can still tell you that it's is still slightly slower than the Aolong v1, and it has a completely different feel. It is buttery smooth right out of the box, unlike the v1, which feels relatively crisp. I loosened the tensions a bit, but I never got any corner twists or pops. It corner cuts way over 45 degrees and reverse cuts line to line (an entire cubie). I think the v1 might be my main because I just like the feel better, and after tightening it, not only do I not get corner twists, the cube is just as speedy.

Does anyone know whether the stickerless aolong V2 is more like the slower first batch or more like the faster later batch?

Also does anyone know if it's likely that moyu will bring out a mini V2 and a stickerless without the pink?

I got this cube from www.speedcube.se 3 days ago.

Out of the box, this cube is very sandy but smooth. There was also quite a bit of spring noise, but that was easily taken care of by lubricating the core with some lube.
After lubing it this cube was a whole new experience. It got faster and smoother but still controllable. It corner cuts well over 45 degrees and reverses are amazing too.
The stickers are nice with standard Moyu shades.
Only real conplaint with it was that there were a few corner twists. There are no lockups because of the great corner cutting. Mechanism is almost identical to the V1 with some litle changes.
Overall, I recommend this cube.
