Not too many changes for me.
Slightly different tracks on the pieces from what I can see on video and photos.

I'm tempted, as always, but not super enthusiastic as the WitLong was so awful. The center plates were the problem there, and as far as I can see, the only difference here is that the plates don't rotate freely.

Actually that came out too on the WitYou, the original one. And according to Phil (whom I trust) it's nothing like the Wityout, which means it shouldn't be all that much like the WitLong (which most agree, neither was that great).
So we basically know it's not much like a few bad cubes we know of.

And about the center plate problem, apparently there wasn't much problem with those on the Wityou v1 with the locked plates. Although I'm guessing you could fix that with a bit of sandpaper.


Although I have overdone my cube quota for the next 5 years already. Marcel? XD

Yep, I didn't buy that, for the same reason. I just can't see how they wouldn't catch on reverse cutting or any kind of misalignment. It's just a weird design. Maybe if I'm bored I'll experiment with one and take some sandpaper to it.

Phil's review does identify catching as an issue, even though the feel is different to the v1.

What I got from his various videos on these cubes was that the Witlong had catching problems, and the prototype Wityou v2 had catching problems, but the Wityout v1 didn't. Which is kind of odd. But he has the overview of the original Wityou and it doesn't catch much.

WitYou V2 has on market (official version)

WitYou V2 (official version) is of course much better than prevoious. The v2 is fast and smooth,Very stable, has a strong cut corner!
