Ayyyy you finally got one! After setting it up, I actually thought of the opposite, with the Elite being unique in feeling, and that makes it my current main, so it prolly just boils down to personal preference 😅

So, I finally have my new speedcube, and yes, a Valk Elite. I've been cubing for almost five years, and the only speedcube that I have (and still living until now) is YJ GuanLong. For so many solves, the YJ cube bacame my main. It's just last week when I received my Valk and it's the black one. Honestly, it's kind of different feeling specially doing U2/M2 moves. I need to practice more using Valk, at the very same time, set the cube up. I just recently put the strong setting center caps and at least it reduces the turning speed a little bit. It also satisfy me to watch these kind of unboxing videos so, a big thank you!

@danieldostal8525 4 жыл бұрын

JRCuber just seems different. In more than 90% of reviews I watched, the reviewer really liked it and started talking about it's unique feeling and ended up with this cube as theirs main. I got it myself and I can tell that this is for sure the best 3x3 ever. And you said, that you don't see this cube sticking around, or that you don't see many people using it and that is bullshit. So many famous cubers are already using this cube.

I’d suggest either of the following: MGC Elite: If you’re looking for a cheap cube that’s almost as good as the others Weilong WR M: If you don’t mind sacrificing customisability for the best performance overall. Valk Elite M: If you like stable and customisable cubes with not the best corner cutting (I’d suggest this if you’re an accurate turner). GAN XS: If you love light cubes and don’t mind spending a lot of money on one of the best cubes ever, and care about customisability and corner cutting overall.

@HelloHi-cu1uf 4 жыл бұрын

My Valk Elite didn't turn so good. It had less than 45 degree cornercutting. But when I loosened it until it can cornercut 45 degrees, it was too loose and pops when I solved. (it was dry as hell). I tried using WD 40 to it (im so dumb) it slowed down too much and thought it was unusable and changed my main into the Tengyun. Overall I'd pick another cube even with less customization. Edit: this cube is very good if you do not change the settings, just dont change them yourself because it would make it worse

I was extremely disappointed in this cube, especially for the price. I'm much better at setting up cubes than I am at speed solving them, but I could never get this cube setup to avoid the catches (even verging on lockups). Could just be a lazy turning style, but I don't have this problem with any other cube other than the YJ MGC Elite (which had similar problems for me). This cube is too high priced not to work better right out of the box.
