How does this relate to the thread?

On the previous page, someone asked him what his average was. It would look relevant if he used quotes.

Sounds like a good plan

So, tell me about the HuaLong.

So, tell me about the HuaLong.

See my review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skLyCzhuvEQ to sum up the review the cube has the same buttery/smooth/fast feeling of the Weilong.

Which 3x3 should I get for a main?

Okay, so I'm a intermediate speedsolver at around 30 seconds. I've been looking for a good competition legal speedcube since I only have a stickerless zhanchi and a guanlong. I've narrowed it down to the Yuxin 3x3, the Moyu haulong, and the qiyi bullfight. I've looked at many reviews and still can't decide. I really like the feel of the zhanchi but I would like something a bit faster and with better corner cutting while still maintaining a smooth feeling.
Thanks!

To be honest, Dayan Zhanchi and Moyu Aolong/Weilong are really really good. If you haven't felt a moyu cube before I'd suggest getting one of them to get the feel, otherwise I'd stick with Zhanchi. My Zhanchi is actually faster than my Aolong lol. Also, you do like crispy cubes? Or do you prefer more gummy cubes? Either way the three I mentioned are all, still, extremely good. You're also better off modding the cube yourself (tensioning/lubing).

Edit: just realised you said you have a guanlong lol, pick whichever you like more and go for that one ^_^

Yuxin 3x3, the Moyu haulong, and the qiyi bullfight.

Out of those 3, the HuaLong seems to be the most popular, and is definitely my favourite of the 3.

I would use a GuHong V2. That's what I use for my main.

how does the guhong stack up to more modern speed cubes?

 

[OkinawaSolver]

So I just realized my stickerless zhanchi is slower than a stickered one maybe my stickerless is ruined so should I buy a hualong or a stickered zhanchi?

I really like the YuXin 4x4. It's not quite as stable as the AoSu but it's buttery smooth and fast, especially the outer layers. It's replacing the AoSu as my main. I think it's a great cube, especially for the money.

I like smaller cube (I don't have small hands though). The mini Aosu is my favorite. It takes a bit of breaking in but it feels great to use.

What does collin's wr say about cube quality? 356 is considered better than yuxin...

What it tells me is that companies need to put more effort into other cubes with more room for improvement rather than releasing a yet another perfectly good 3x3 every week.

Cube thats good for M2/Old pochmann?
