Yuxin 17x17x17

[Dash Lambda]

Can you give the source of that information please.

If I had one, I'd have included it off the bat. Like I said, that's just what I remember hearing. I'd love to know for sure though...

ADDENDUM: More specifically, I heard it in a thread on here a while ago that I can't seem to find now.

I was just wondering if there was any particular reason why they would choose to not cap those pieces on a prototype.

It's about functionality at this stage. Why bother with unnecessary stickers, caps etc when things might have to be changed?

But then I wonder why the other caps were necessary.

Maybe they don't have caps, I don't know. It's just a prototype, why does it matter?

It doesn't (at least to me). My initial question was just strictly curiosity.

Welp... mass production finally catches up to Oskar van Deventer. What a time.

I remember reading moyus 15*15*15 post, they received slot of hate for it complaining that moyus should support the majority of cubers who can't afford a huge cube, that's probably why they stopped, but it's nice to see that this post is not receiving that

Moyu said they were making 12x12x12 to 15x15x15 so I guess for once Yuxin are respecting others, or scared they can't beat MoYu to it.

 

[One Wheel]

Yeah, even if I did make that money I wouldn't spend it on a 17x17 I would save it. Btw your probably right it will be more expensive.

Actually on further reflection you may be right about $400. Historically moyu has been much more expensive than yuxin. The 13x13 is $300, but not that long ago while the yuxin 5x5 was $17 on theCubicle the Huachuang was $38, and those were pretty much the two top of the line 5x5s to pick from. They've been pricing their cubes much more similarly to shengshou cubes than to moyu. Here's hoping!

I predict $320.

I also dislike stickerless pink.

Yeah, they got it right on the 7x7. I keep hoping they'll add those colors to the higher order cubes.

Yeah, totally agree. The more classic shades they used on the 7x7 are fine, but the pink/pastel bright shades are really unappealing to me.

A mass produced 17x17x17 is planned and the first prototype is said to be a success.View attachment 7596 View attachment 7597 View attachment 7598

I Want one please, I need to buy one of thoes

 

[Nathan R]

That's epic. Wonder how much it'll cost...

Me too

 

[FireCuber]

Wow.....cool! That is amazing You would have to save up for that one!

I wonder who would buy it? ...Not me

I'm the kind of person who would save up for it, buy it, re-sticker it with my prefered shades (if it comes in black), solve it no more than five times, then re-sell it for £20 less than it's worth, lol.

Just to say to people 'yeah, I solved a 17x17!'
