Does anyone has an idea of a really good 4x4x4? I have one now, which I believe to be a Rubik's brand (don't remember exactly since I bough it from amazon four years ago). However, this cube is really bad even if it is lubed (locks and pops).

So, any advices?

And can I use Diff oil 50k on 4x4 with the same results as for the 3x3? My 3x3s diff oil lubed cubes are amazing.

Thanks.

For the first question, Shengshou v3.

For the second one, I'm not a lube expert.

Dayan ZhanChi is expensive...it's smooth, it's fast, and lockups are less... I hhhhiiiigggghhhhllllyyyy recommend it

 

[Fire Cuber]

What cube should I get? Zhanchi? Guhong II, Lingyun II? MF8 Legends? FIII? CIII? Help PLZ

 

[scrubofcubes]

the zhanchi is generally very good(WR holder uses it), the guhong(not sure about II, probably similar to first) would be very smooth, the lingyun vII is VERY fast, but also loud/clicky. Don't get the fIII i have not heard good things about it. Depends on your preference in terms of feel.

What Cube Should I Get?

I'm wanting to buy a Lubix Dayan cube, but which one should I get?

 

[emolover]

I would suggest the Lubix Linyun.

What is the best 2x2 out there or will be out there in the next week or two?

Witwo. If you want to pay less, LanLan is still great, but no as great as the Witwo.

 

[Robocopter87]

The Type C Wittwo is very fast. It is set up similarly to a Zhanchi in structure. I really love mine. However, its impossible to say that a cube is the "best" cube of its size/shape.

But I would recommend this cube. But I also recommend waiting for even more input from this thread. I don't feel I"m exactly knowledgeable enough about 2x2s.

Well I guess Mf8 Legends or maybe CIV?

I think Haiyan cubes (Type A I think) have rounded cubies according to a picture from Puzl.co.uk.

I have a lingyun v2, i am a beginner(not even gonna say times). I lubed this with silicube(like lubix but cheaper) and it is insanely fast. It is also very loud. Is there an alternative that is just a little slower and less loud? Basically, guhong v2 or zhanchi?

 

[cubelover111]

You should probably buy a ghosthand i have heard that it i a pretty quiet cube and is also pretty decent. You can save your lingyun for later at it is uncontrollably fast.

 

[cubenut99]

guhong v2 the regular guhong is the best dayan cube in my oppinion. I don't own a guhong v2, but I hear good thing about it.

 

[Czery]

Don't know if this should go here

What would be the top three cubes for Roux? (M-Slice Orientated)

 

[Chilli]

I have the V Cube 6 and 5 but I am disappointed, especially with the 6 (the 5 would be easy to mod). Is it worth buying a ShengShou 6x6 (and maybe 5x5)?

 

[Petezorzz]

I'm looking for a new 3x3.
I currently have a Zhanchi and it's not the greatest for me :S

I want to know which of the Dayan cubes are the smoothest.
