This is an exceptional cube that appears in the collections of many cubers. It has a very unique feeling during first turns, and becomes very smooth and fast after breaking in. It has a practical anti-pop system, and will only pop on very loose tensions. It has its downsides, however. The sticker quality is poor, as the stickers chip very easily. It may be worth buying a brighter set of stickers along with this cube, as the orange and green stickers are quite dull, especially compared to MoYu cubes. The caps on the pieces also fly off if the cube is dropped, meaning the cube is very delicate. The ShuangRen has since been released in new sizes, and some cube retailers offer it in numerous colour combinations.

The QiYi Thunderclap was released in May of 2015. It is fast and clicky. It can corner cut nearly two pieces and reverse corner cut about one piece. It is widely considered one of the best budget cubes, and is known as [[Christopher Olson]]'s main 3x3.

The QiYi Sail is QiYi's budget cube. At $4.00 USD at most retailers, it is among the cheapest cubes on the market. It can perform well given its low price, with moderate speed and corner cutting comparable to the Thunderclap's; however, it can break and pop more easily than the Thunderclap.
