No. They're just too cheap to make a good quality core. Would you like to have a car made out of plastic? Flexible or not, I'd rather have a metal car.

What is your budget? You can get decent cubes way better than Guhongs and Zhanchis for $5?

Something around the $30 dollar range would be good for me

The magnetic Valk is very good, and is only 22$. Another great cube is the MGC elite.

Which Valk cube? When i search on speedcubeshop there are like 6 different Valks. Valk 3, Valk 3 elite, etc. I think I want to try a magnetic one, i've never had one.

Valk 3 M 3x3

The Valk 3 M is the magnetic version of one of the top 3x3s of the last 3 years. Originally endorsed and used by renowned speed cuber Mats Valk himself, the Valk 3 was touted as the premier speed cube of its time from popular cube manufacturer QiYi. This version features a light magnetic feel...

Cool, thanks a lot. Do you know the difference between this and the elite? I'm reading on their site but it doesn't specify. It seems like just the interchangeable springs that come extra with it?

The difference is that the elite has adjustable springs and magnets, magnets in the center caps, and weighs less. I personnally like the normal valk 3 M better, plus you save about 20 bucks.

Just order the YJ MGC 2x2, MoYu WeiLong GTS3 M 3x3, and MoYu Aosu GTS2 M 4x4.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Are you recommending or saying you ordered those?

And, you know, a better feel for some people? Plus the primary internals. But you can’t go wrong with the Valk 3.

I am saying I just ordered these. Sorry. I plan on posting about what I think about them though.

What's wrong with the MGC as the "great" option?

Nothing. He never said there was anything wrong about it.

I thought he was asking whether to get the Yulong or the V2

The (original) Valk is noisy because of the hollow corners, and you can kill most of the noise just by stuffing the corners with cotton or tissue paper or whatever.

(My 2 cents is that the Valk Elite is bad and the original Valk is way better, but apparently a lot of people actually like the Valk Elite and I have no idea what's up with that.)
