I bet MoYu is tryna compete with GAN on this cube, looking at the HuaMeng TG, which the best version was $65, I think the Super Weilong V2 will be about $60-$80

Cool, but here's the true fact of the matter: Charging too much money for 2 times the profit won't net more gain if you get less than half of the sales that it could. Simple business philosophy. So the fact that it's so expensive means that MoYu is killing their own business, slowly poisoning itself through their own decisions like a regular customer at a McDonalds.

I agree. I like how QiYi does it. At least from the 3x3 models I have seen since I first started on this hobby, they deliver honest performance and value in most cases. Tornado V2, V3, QiYi M Pros, and the QiYi smart cubes. I don't mind paying a much higher price for something that is exceptional and deliver actual improvement in performance, but not for something that only promises incremental improvement though using lots and lots of magnets and fancy design, or lots of special tools, rods, centre cap removal gadget, watch watch holders and big shiny cases.

Once again MoYu cannibalizes their own releases. The TG hasn't even been out for a month and people are already hyping up the super weilong v2.

I feel bad for YuSheng, ngl.

This is an even cheaper version of the QiYi's XT3. Design is very similar to the XT3, with apparently the same pieces and core magnets (but no balls). Size is the same and weight a tiny bit heavier at 67g and 76g.

For anyone interested, here are what I found about the QiYi XT3, and some comparisons with the Guhong spring version. This XT3 is suitable as a lightweight cube to avoid too much stress in the fingers. It is 65g, lighter than the lightest Guhong Pro M. It can also be adjusted in its axis distance as well as the elasticity, another advantage. The build quality is better, with no marks on the surface of the pieces. The magnet strength cannot be adjusted, like in the Guhong, but it's weaker or barely adequate IMO. In turning, it feels a bit like a Gan, very hollow. It is more...

In addition to what i said since, I would like to point out that this cube needs a lot of breaking in, which improves it a lot. It is now more than pretty good esp for those who like a very light 55.5mm cube and weaker magnet effect, and good quality. Personally I still like its direct competitor, the Guhong Pro, better, for its nice feel when turning, and also for the 54mm size. This is subjective, as they are very different cubes. Nice to see more choices in reasonable priced lightweight cubes with good performance.
