Moyu RS3M V5 is more popular, more recommended now.

Ok thanks

The X-Man Wingy V2 and the MoYu RS are not as good as the MoYu AoYan M imo, but it isn't very easy to get one as the MoYu AoYan M has been discontinued already. The GAN Enhanced UV Coated has nice grip and performance, but then it's very expensive.

In such case I would recommend the X-Man Wingy V1 as it has glossy plastic unlike the V2 which has frosted plastic. It also performs slightly better than the V2.

At the end of the day, if you are lucky enough, get the MoYu AoYan M. If you are rich enough and you are serious at skewb, get the GAN Enhanced UV Coated. Or else get the X-Man Wingy V1.

@Timona I found an Aoyan.

There is a small error in current 3x3x3 expert section.

• Expert: GAN 11M Pro 3x3 - $64.95 or X-Man Tornado V3 - $24.99-$39.99 or MoYu Weilong WR M (2021 Maglev) - $38.99 - All very stable cubes, the Gan is fast, the Tengyun is controllable, and the WRM is a little bit of both. - The gan is used by many world-class solvers.

The listed cube is Tornado, but the text below mentions Tengyun.

The Yuhu v2m is good, but if you can spend a bit more the Dayan Pro is better

Tornado in my opinion. (At least out of the box), the V9 is way, way too fast. And it corner-twists very easily, even after tightening it, from what I’ve heard.

I recommend the rs3m v5 bc uv coated

 

[Kami]

I recommend the rs3m v5 bc uv coated

imo it’s just like a v9 with less auto aligning and slightly less speed

 

[Arcanist]

imo it’s just like a v9 with less auto aligning and slightly less speed

The RS3M V5 BC UV is also significantly cheaper though.
