shadowslice e, +1, I do not like the feel of MF3RS. It feels clacky and loud and also feels very budget.

MF3RS or Weilong GTS2
Looking to get a MoYu cube and wondering which is better. Or if there are other nicer MoYu cubes, let me know

I know it's all about the gts2 now but, I like the gts1 better.
If you have large hands like me gts2 is too small. Even though it's like a 0.5mm difference I prefer the gts size better.

Also, the gts m is also good.
It makes it have better stability and since the gts is a light cube for me, I did the foam mod to make it heavier.


If you are on a budget, the mf3rs is good too.

GTS2M Lite, Or Gans UM

Gts v1

I have decently accurate and a fast turning style.
Which 2x2 should I get?

 

[Cuberrism]

I want a cube that doesn't lock up, doesn't pop, and cuts corners at 45 degrees.

WeiLong GTS2

Maybe the KungFu YueHun or MoHuanShouSu ChuWen

For Roux? That seems a bit odd considering the magnets are stronger than my Valk 3 M which is why I am getting a new cube. Or do you mean the non-magnetic version, but still, that cube is a bit outdated :/

You're not considering the new Guoguan Yuexiao?

Nah, from the yuexiao that i have felt, i did not like it very much and would not fit my turning style, although that could just be the setup of the cube.

Tbh, I don't have very many modern cubes, but the GTS2 sounds good and I know that the MF3RS is just a budget cube. If you are smart, you can get the GTS2 of Magic Cube Mall for 14$ and the MF3RS for about 4$.

Get them both! The MF3RS is a great cube for the price. And everyone should have a cube to take along, when you leave the house, that you don't mind losing or getting dirty.

GTS2M Lite, Or Gans UM

I'd go with the GTS2 M Lite, which is my current main. While I don't currently use Roux, I recently spent a month or so practicing it. I used all of the cubes mentioned above, and the Lite was the one I used the most

If price isn't a factor, GTS2 over the MF3RS. The collar around the centers on the GTS2 guides the turning better for me under duress; fewer catches and lockups, more reliable about doing what I intend. If price is a factor the MF3RS is a great budget cube IMO.

I'm sold on magnets in my first experience which is the GTS2-M production version. I can also see why the GTS2-M Lite is such a popular option, I think I'd prefer slightly weaker magnets.

Hmm.. Hard choice, I think I might just go with the Air, do to it fitting my style, but thanks for the help!

My DIY Yuexiao M has pretty good M slices. (n50s DMcubing style)

I believe the Air UM has n35's or n42's so they are a bit lighter than something like that, but also I am too lazy to make a magnetic cube, or just dont want to mess the cube up.

The Yuexiaos plastic is a little bit thicker then the GTS v1s

The MF3RS is a great cube in general, but It's very nice to take under water. Get both!

It is budget????

 

[Nice One Bob!]

Does anyone have any experience with the Cuber's Home Xinghen M 2x2? I have seen there are many reviews of the Cubicle Labs Xinghen M, which seems good, but is quite expensive.

Hey guys I'm returning after a fairly long hiatus, and I want to get a top tier speedcube. It seems to be that magnets are a thing now, so I was looking to get either the GTS2, Gans Air, or Valk 3. I don't know which one I would prefer. My favorite cubes in the past have been the Guhong V2 and the Fangshi Shuangren. I also had a Weilong and Zhanchi, but I preferred the former two cubes over them. I liked the creamy smooth feeling of the Guhong the most. However, I did enjoy the extremely fast aspects of the Weilong and Zhanchi, so it's not like I didn't like them because they were uncontrollable. I hope you guys can give me a recommendation out of those three based on my opinions on previous cubes haha.
