Review of Main 3x3x3 Cube Models and Clarification on the Naming System of Type A

[cincyaviation]

I didn't realize the Wiki's page was that great. My bad.

It's really not that great

It's what we make it -- if there's something missing, then add it.

Unfortunately the amount of knowledge i have wouldn't really add much to the wiki. If i come across something i can add to it i will though.

This guide should add the DaYan GuHong (if I understand correctly this is a type of its own)

This thread is dead -- use the wiki.

I think they should add in the Ghost Hand I and the Ghost Hand II.

I have a Ghost Hand II in white, and it pops every 10 solves, but is extremely smooth and good at cutting corners. And I haven't even lubricated it yet, and it's perfect, so I don't plan on it.

If it pops every 10 solves, you might want to change it a little so it doesn't ruin your averages. That's quite a high popping rate.

F-II???

Thankyou for making this!

The first poster is banned and everything in it was from his own perspective.

Where can I buy a New Type-A II?

I went to the three sites listed in the first post, but I couldn't find any.

Solid logic.

i want a new alpha 3 now
however it will not replace my edison

Why bother? If it isn't even possible that it'll replace it, you're just throwing away money. That's silly.

You DO know that this list is super outdated, don't you? There are soooo many better cubes than the Edison nowadays. Try all of these cubes: A5, F2, Dayan Gu Hong, Dayan Lingyun, Even the D2 is really good, if it didn't lock so much. And, I still will say that the new A3 is very good after serious breaking in. Lingyun is by far, the best cube I've ever touched, however, it needs to be tight to not pop.

I went to the three sites listed in the first post, but I couldn't find any.

I've been wanting one for a while now, and I've found them at the Rubikfans ebay store, under the name third model, and at Cube4you.com under the name NEW type A 3x3.
