If you are on a budget, then I would recommend the MF3RS2. I don't have a Weilong GTS, so I can't really tell you which is better. I found the GTS for $15 on thecubicle.us and the MF3RS2 for $7 on thecubicle. Hope this helps!

For someone at your stage, I would say yes the MF3RS2 is a better cube. Top cubers liked the GTS V1 because it's super fast and light, but it is very flexible and unstable, making it a difficult (if not unusable) beginner cube. I've been cubing for a couple years and still find it difficult to solve on. Magnets make a huge difference but it is not offered in a mass-produced magnetic version.

So, I am buying a speedcube from these:
MoYu Weilong vs Shengshou Aurora VS QiYi Thunderclap V2
but I don't know which one. Please suggest me one with a reason.

If you want to get a new pyraminx I would suggest a moyu magnetic because I heard those ones were pretty good but I do not have one myself I would suggest looking at reviews on YouTube

I just looked up a video of the CubeStyle Pyraminx and it looks pretty bad compared to more recent ones. If you feel like it's holding you back from getting better times, I'd definitely recommend getting a new Pyraminx.
I'd recommend either the MoYu Magnetic or X-Man Bell. In general, most people use the Bell, but most world class people seem to use the MoYu Magnetic. Personally, I prefer the Bell, but you can't really go wrong with either.

Yeah you should. I prefer the Moyu magnetic or X-Man Bell which is a little more $$.

I switched basically as soon as I got it, which was about 2 months ago. It was mainly because I realized it was ridiculous that I was using my MoYu all this time even though I didn't like it anymore.

Looks like the top one is a ghost cube, bottom is a mirror axis cube.
Ghost cube will definitely be more difficult, but both will be challenging (and fun).

Definitely wingy

Why those cubes? They're all very old/outdated now. If I had to pick from those three, I'd say the WeiLong and Thunderclap V2 are both decent, but I wouldn't recommend either in 2018 since there are so many better cubes.
I'd recommend instead looking into something like a WeiLong GTS2 M or Gan356 Air SM. If those are too expensive for you, I've heard really good things about the MF3RS2 and the YuXin Little Magic (and their magnetic versions if you can afford them). These are both really good budget cubes, and I'd say they're better than the cubes you listed.

Hey, so I need a new 4x4 and I came down to 2 options. The WuQue and the Mini ThunderClap M Presetup.(Both priced the same). I am a 2 minute solver and the 4x4 i have just pops and lockups waaay too much(Cangfeng). What should I buy? Thanks to anyone who replies!

I have never tried the Thunderclap 4x4, let alone a magnetic version so I can't comment on that. But there's a reason pretty much everyone uses the Wuque - it's the best 4x4 on the market. If you are worried about the puzzle not having magnets, you can add them yourself for cheap and it's a fun project.

Why is the YLM so hyped?
