V-Cube, Rubik, or Eastsheen?

[Gmfrk96]

I currently have a 2x2x2, 4x4x4, and 5x5x5 Eastsheen Cubes. I am wondering which is the better brand to buy for speedsolving: Rubik's, Eastsheen, or V-Cube. My Eastsheens turn really well, but sometimes it is hard to turn the sides when I am solving to fast. Please let me know your opinion about which is better.

2x2: LanLan (aparantly)
4x4: Mini QJ or normal QJ
5x5: V-cubes. Qjs aren't bad though.

2x2: I've heard lanlan
4x4: QJ/mini QJ or YJ, not sure as I don't have the latter.
5x5: V-cube by FAR

Isn't YJ 4x4 a knockoff?

Yup, sometimes the best isn't legal, or brand (As you can see by nuclear power, or Rubik's 4x4)
Lan Lans are the next best thing though.

i think they're a knock-off of V-Cube.(V-Cube mechanism). probably wrong though

 

[gibsonguitarist55]

here we go again
another KO thread
but any ways
2x2 Lanlan
4x4 imo mini qj or mefferts
5x5 i prefer eastsheen because they are cheap but vcube 5 is good as well

 

[dillonbladez]

oh yeah. there are a lot of KO threads

On Topic;
2x2 lanlan for sure. i've never tried it, but they are probably as smooth as ES. except they have springs, so it can cut corners so much easily. of course, you can do the ES 2x2 mod. pestvic has a video. you use a drill, drill a hole, and put screws and spring in there. i wouldn't risk it though.

2x2x2 - Eastsheen
4x4x4 - Eastsheen
5x5x5 - V-Cube

Based on the options you gave us. However:

2x2x2 - LanLan
4x4x4 - QJ or Mefferts
5x5x5 - V-Cube

Would be better.

 

[DavidSanders]

4x4- Rubik's
5x5- Rubik's
2x2- Rubik's

 

[Litz]

2x2: lanlan
4x4: miniQj probably
5x5: v-cube

I own all of these cubes by the way.

2x2: lanlan
4x4: miniQj probably
5x5: v-cube

This, and I also own all of those. The YJ 4x4 looks promising and I have one in the mail but I'll withhold any recommendation for it until I get it and use it a bit...

Isn't YJ 4x4 a knockoff?

Yes. This person asked for the best 4x4, and I gave him that answer.

 

[Thomas09]

2x2- LanLan
4x4- Mefferts if you don't want to get a KO other wise QJ.
5x5- Definately V- Cube.

 

[CitricAcid]

2x2: LanLan FTW.
3x3: (Added For Convenience) FII Or CII, They Seem To Be Perfect On The 2 Basic Types Of Cubes, Crispy Or Smooth. (FII=Crispy CII=Smooth)
4x4: Mini QJ.
5x5: V-Cube.

 

[(R)]

4x4- Rubik's
5x5- Rubik's
2x2- Rubik's

What?:confused:

 

[rachmaninovian]

rubix for all

 

[lumanderthon]

2x2 lanlan is definitly best and i think cheapest.
4x4 QJ is by best
5x5 vcube 5 for sure

 

[nlCuber22]

2x2 - LanLan
4x4 - Mini QJ/QJ/Meffert's
5x5 - V-Cube
