Hi,

i got my V Cube 3 today and wondered why there are no videos and reviews about it, so i decided to make one.

As said in the video:
Reviews and Videos are not my type of hobby, I just wanted to show the pieces and tell you my impressions about the new V-Cube.

So don't expect to much but have fun watching it:



Sorry for my bad english ;-)

Wow, those pieces are really similar to a Guhong. Doesn't look very good compared to Dayan cubes though, I think I'll stick with my Zhanchi.

Thanks so much for making the video. It appears like it's just a less refined Guhong. Which I guess that makes it a good cube, but not as good as a dayan.

15 Minutes ago: might save up for a V-Cube 3
Now: Nah, I'm fine with a ZhanChi :)

Sounds awfully clunky and clicky...

Well, this was awfully underwhelming...

Like most others, I'm sticking with my ZhanChi as my main. But I'm getting this anyway as a novelty item and just to see if I can make something great out of it (with modding and such).

Oh and another thing... the video's time is 13 minutes and 37 seconds. 13:37.

Would you say this is worth the amount it costs? I'm pretty sure I won't get one (unless they release different coloured plastics) but, given that it costs more than a Guhong in most situations, would you say that it is worth buying one for the sake of speedcubing? (ie: using it as a main cube; not just having one in your collection etc.)

I do not want to give any advice that sounds like the one truth!
But if you ask for my opinion: I'm staying with my Lubix Fusion (+ Torpedos, so its maybe a Elite).

I HAVE THE CUBE AND IT ISNT AT ALL LIKE THE GUHONG!! The corners aren't even the same idea and the edges are more boxy on the v-3. I will admit it isn't great when I first assembled it but I WOULD 100 PERCENT BUY THIS AS A SPEEDCUBE!! IT IS VERY FAST AND CUTS WELL...only complaint is the stickers are annoying
