ShengShou 2x2

The ShengShou 2x2 is almost identical to the GhostHand 2x2, but they are not produced by the same company. The mechanism consists of a bandaged 3x3x3, with rounded up edges and the inner and outer corners connected by a lock-up system.

ShengShou 4x4

One of the best 4x4s on the market. There have been 6 versions of this cube offered for sale, the newest being the ShengShou Wind 4x4. Corner cutting is similar to the Maru, cutting over a cubie. Reverse corner cutting is very good for a 4x4, around a 1/4 of a cubie. It has a spring/screw structure like the Maru but doesn't have misalignment problems. Turning has a clicky feel and the performance improves a bit after some breaking in. The corners/edges is rounded like the Haiyan cube making it having a better feel and more control. The size is reasonable (6.25cmx6.25cmx6.26cm), bigger than an Eastsheen and 2cm smaller than the huge Maru 4x4. At a weight of 161.1g, it has a very comfortable weight. Highly recommended cube and very cheap.

The mechanism is similar to a 5x5x5 Shengshou, with some pieces reduced and hidden.
