New Dayan cubes: Dayan 6! Also Zhanchi minis!

[Endgame]

I'm switching my ZhanChi for an Alpha V to get my finger accuracy back on track, since mine is downright horrible.

Thank you for expressing your concern but I will not listen to your advice
It sucks...

You are never too slow / inexperienced for a good cube!

I respectfully disagree. When using cubes that have good corner cutting, one does not need to turn as accurately as one would have to on a Rubik's brand cube. This allows for laziness in developing finger tricks, which can come back to haunt one when starting to solve big cubes.

I second that. I used a <very good> rubik's brand for 5 months, then I bought a guhong. I never need the corner cutting ability

I agree, I got banned from the puzzle chat because the admin thought otherwise.

The username/user is correct. This is exactly why you don't use google translate.... Literally, it does translate to that. His username and stuff is on the dayan box that not a lot of people read (or can read). In pinyin it is DaYan Tou and people just use the wrong character a lot on the forums because there are lots of characters for the same sounds in chinese and some people just don't care about those mistakes as long as there aren't any awkward double meanings.

I'll have the mini Zhanchi's in stock around release time.

I will also have the Dayan VI when it does come out. I have a feeling it will not be (or not much) better than a zhanchi, guhong, or my favorite lingyun II. Let's hope they are doing more tests on the plastic and mold quality... I don't want to F up my fingertips trying to put DIY corner pieces together...

As for previous posts about corner cutting and accuracy: If your cube pieces are pressed together entirely your cube will be smooth. If your cube pops or locks up a lot it needs to be tightened, period. A dayan 3x3 should NOT pop at all (except for lunhui's and regular guhong's). If you like a loose cube you deserve explosions and stuff Oh yeah and superior corner cutting doesn't mean anything unless you can perform such cuts at full speed without locking. Imo a good degree of cutting (at full speeds) is +30 & -20 degrees.

I beg to differ. Some people including me have Zhanchis that tend to pop even with torpedos in them, and no it's not very loose. Unless you have a strict definition of looseness

Yep, mine POPs a lot, and is not loose

 

[Ninja Storm]

I have four Zhanchis, and even the ones without torpedoes don't pop unless your turning is bad.

I can't wait for the dayan 6 , I still need to get the zhanchi and guhong v2 but ive been loving the stickerless guhong :3

Before I actually started practicing 4x4 and 5x5, I had to switch from my Zhanchi to my somewhat modded Alpha 5, just so I can stop with all the locking up and pops that came from rough turning on my Maru 4x4 and Shengshou 5x5. And yes, my unmodded and factory-tensioned, mind you, Shengshou 5x5 still popped occasionally from all that rough cubing. Lol, talk about relearning finger tricks
And about the Zhanchis popping, they tend to explode. My first Zhanchi was only like 5 months old before I had to make it really really tight so it won't pop. My second one (my current main) is starting to pop more frequently in my solves...

I dunno about you, but my Lunhui is quite pop resistant. It's not too tight either, but it's probably just as hard to take an edge out as the Witlong 3x3 (imho)

Hope to see an improvement to the new dayan cube.

My guess is that the pieces will be like a LunHui and a ZhanChi put together.
