You've persuaded me!
Aside from being really similar to 3x3 you can become really creative with your F2L as there are so many places pieces can end up. I don't practice it often as it takes so long (at least for me, I average 4:30.00 lol) I don't really have the motivation to learn new algorithms for skewb and Pyra idk why I just don't if you know what I mean?

I looked for videos yesterday but couldn't find anything. it was released on cubicle 2 days ago so someone should have it soon
Those who got it early on Cubezz and The Cubicle are probably still awaiting their packages. Looking forward to seeing some reviews on the product as well as how it compares to the Valk 5M

Edit:
Just realised it's only $20 compared to the $50 Valk 5M

Wow, the price of Huang Long 5x5 M is just amazing. It is also competing with budget magnetic 5x5s because of it's price.

What about the YJ 'Rui' series of puzzles. It comprises 2x2 - 7x7 plus pyraminx and megaminx.
It is expected that yj v2m series is better than yj rui series. It is also expected that Ylm series is better than kylin series (exclude kylin v2m 3x3).

I decided to add only the most modern set of budget puzzles for each company, which is why there is no original MF series, YJ's previous "Rui" series etc but thanks for the suggestion.

The YuChuang V2M or the Budget series of cubes comparison?
Budget series of cubes comparison. There are already some WCA hardware comparison threads. The poll result in the Budget high-end 5x5 comparison thread has already shown that a majority of cubers prefer the yuxin little magic m over the Mr.m and the yuchuang v2m.

Has anyone had any experience with the Huanglong 5x5M yet? I am eager to know how it performs and how it compares to other 5x5's available.

We will have to look at unboxings and reviews.
Just realised the Huanglong 5x5 is going to be 63mm as opposed to 62mm.
The Huanglong puzzles in general seemed to be larger than average. Even the Yuxin Little Magic 7x7M is - according to JPerm - slightly larger and not what he is used to.

Interesting how Yuxin are opting for larger-sized puzzles.
