Ok I just filled out this form. But one additional thing I want to add is that: I just hate how all these cube manufactures/brands are giving us all these new cubes with somewhat complicated adjustment systems. Along with that some of these adjustment systems comes with special adjustment tools and/or extra parts to swap out for the adjustment. One last thing for the love of god I don't need a regular Philips head screwdriver with every cube I get. I already have a crap ton that I got with these puzzles and more that I've had way before these ones that come with these speedcubes. Another thing is that why are most of the good WR worthy speedcubes now adays cost between $25-$80? I remember back in the day when Felix Z got his first WR it was with a $10 Dayan Guhong V1. That cube was just a standard non-magnetic 3x3 with the traditional screw spring adjustment system. For those cubes that still have the traditional Screw Spring adjustment system is a fool proof of being fragile or overly complicated with fine tunning the tensions.

i guess your first opinion is why a lot of people loved the TV3.
I think WR worthy speedcubes are becoming more expensive because they are adding more features like corner to core magnets, UV coating, etc. Back then cubes were really basic. Now, almost every new cube has atleast one version that has a ball-core + UV + whatever else comes with it.

Arguable yes all those feature of Maglev, ball core, UV, and some others are the top expensive features for most "Flagship" models. But still do we really need to have UV and Ball core on everything? No, Maglev is perfectly fine as is. But at this point it's almost impossible to have a UV cube without a ball core unless you do some core swapping with a non UV model.

Bump, but, did this ever conclude with a result ?

Also when someone you know is into engineering a philips head screwdriver is very useful (from expenrience which i obv cant spell)

I know that these screwdrivers are useful but the ones that Moyu, Yj, and Diansheng give us has stubby and uncomfortable handles. I do have a few really good screwdrivers that has interchangeable bits so I can use is on many different types and sizes of screws.
