Which of the three main cubing brands are your favourite and best.

[SentsuiJack2403]

As we all know there are three major speedcubing brands that we are familiar with, these brands are; GAN known for its high price and outstanding innovations in cubing hardware; MoYu known for being an all around balanced set of price and performnace; and QiYi which most popular for its Valk line of flagships.

I know there also other big brands in cubing such as YJ, Yuxin, and Dayan but I personally don't think their cubes come in par with with the other three brands I just talked about but I will still have an 'other' option for those who do not agree.

Technically Moyu is a sub brand of YJ

You are right but its good enough to receive separate recognition right?

I main the Tengyun v2 for 3x3 and the MGC 6x6 and 7x7, but the rest of my mains are Qiyi, so I voted for Qiyi.

 

[ProStar]

Dayan Guhong v4 and the Dayan TengYun V2 are both main-worthy. If we're including non-3x3, then MGC has amazing cubes for 2-7 (MGC may be a sub-brand, idk. Although so is MoYu).

Overall, with those three options, I'd go with MoYu

 

[ruffleduck]

Out of these three options, Qiyi.

Dayan is my favorite though.

 

[CFOP INC]

My favorite is YJ but I still really like gan

 

[Sub1Hour]

I'd say YJ has had a greater impact than any of these companies in the last year or so, and they definitely have the best hardware for the most events out of these 3

 

[Waffles]

YJ BY FAR

then MoYu and Dayan but very far behind

 

[SentsuiJack2403]

My mains are MoYu cubes like the RS3M 2020 and Weilong GTS3M so I would go with MoYu

 

[the dnf master]

I like yj, but it owns moyu so i'll just select moyu
oh nvm there's an "other" option, in that case yj

 

[Megaminx lover]

Gan and YJ dominate the market for best WCA puzzles. Moyu is quite good for budget cubes but gan is best for 2x2, 3x3, mega, pyra, skewb. YJ for 5x5, 6x6, 7x7 and square-1, Moyu 4x4 and....................................
Qiyi clock

 

[Waffles]

GAN isn’t best for 2x2, from what I’ve heard the 2x2s are okay but “don’t bother”

I would say QiYi for the valk or YJ for the mgc elite for 2x2.

If you think Gan is best for megaminx, I’d like to know what you’re on. (and I would normally put a joking emoji here, but that doesn’t seem to be an option anymore :/ )

YJ doesn't own Moyu. They are separate companies and have been for quite awhile.

 

[Cubing Forever]

I know there also other big brands in cubing such as YJ, Yuxin, and Dayan but I personally don't think their cubes come in par with with the other three brands I just talked about

**cough cough** DaYan Mega, Tengyuns and Guhongs **cough cough**
**cough cough** YJ MGC line and Yu-something line **cough cough**

I personally like QiYi and YJ because their cubes are dirt cheap yet amazing

I see what you did there

 

[Jonathan Cuber]

my first ever was a Yuxin 3x3
after that a Gan air SM but that turned out to be horrible bec. of a defect
then the Rs3m 2020 which also was defective
then i tried my friends Valk 3m which i loved so I'll go with QIYI

 

[cuberbutnotacuber]

I like Moyu a lot, especially since their flagships are getting cheaper. But YJ also competes for my favorite because they've released a lot of new cubes in the past 2 years, especially the MGC line. Gan is well, good, but WAY too expensive. I guess it's worth it for the innovations they've made in their cubes, but yeah. QiYi is also very good, but why did they choose the textured plastic? It feels really weird on cubes. XMD is going places, as shown with the release of the Tornado V2.
