The thing I like about Qiyi, specifically X-man, is that there cubes have actually names and it’s not just numbers.

@derrick_raspberry 5 ай бұрын

Ikr!!! Their English names for their cubes aren't just the romanized version of Mandarin and I believe they are the only brand that does this nowadays. But sadly for their upcoming 5×5 it looks like they just name it Hong(鴻) which is like a more poetic way of saying "great" or "grand", which I guess is understandable since naming a product like Majesty or Magnificent is quite laughable😂

@MoFangGeQiYi 5 ай бұрын

@@derrick_raspberry You are really a pro cuber! About the Hong 5x5, we have studied for a long time but have not found a single word that can accurately express the meaning of the Chinese character "鸿". Therefore, we have to directly use the pinyin "Hong" to name it.😂

I couldn't agree more about almost everything you said! One thing I would like from flagship cube companies is the option to buy different colors like black caps or different shades of colors for colorblind people. Those replacement caps could come UV coated and magnetized if needed! Also, one thing I would love from you is to have free shipping to Canada even if it has to be more expensive. Canadian stores have a very limited selection of items and you are the ones I prefer for US stores for your content and honesty, so I would like to encourage you more by buying from your store, only thing is I am a cheap ass dude, and dont want to pay for shipping. Love your videos, stay as you are!

right so I have an idea which you could potentially do at the cubicle, so you gather people of similar cubing ability and you play a drinking game whereby the winner/person who solves the puzzle first has to take a shot of... something... to make it interesting you could use a bunch of strange and uncanny cubes and ye i think it would be a really funny video.

11:26 so true they probably tried to do that with the yulong v2 but that was a while ago, so they should definitely make a newer budget cube without many features but just a good overall design, that can compete with the rs3m, cause if they put enough effort i think they could

I saw a teaser design with an XMT v3 smart cube. It’s been several months since I’ve seen it but I was excited for it. It’s quite sad that in the week since you recorded this video and released it, only 4 days into January that Moyu has already released their first cube of the year. On the bright side perhaps we can be thankful that this was a single iteration of an already released cube. As opposed to an entire new series.

A dollar is hard to come by for a lot of people, especially younger cubers, and many (but not all) of the puzzles coming out are going up in price substantially *coughmoyucough*. As an elderly 30-something cuber who can afford whatever cubes I want I don't buy something on the pricier side unless it's a game changer. BUT. I can happily justify spending $15ish at the drop of a hat. I think most of the manufacturers need to ground themselves with a solid high-performing budget cube and build from there. The RS3M 2020 was a great example when it came out and Dayan has done a great job with the Guhong Pro. Let's see a Tornado Lite with no magnet adjustment. Let's see a 356M that is sub $20. An MG C 3M with that same turning feel of the 4x4. And, im looking at you Moyu, do ONE of them.

11:19 "The strat with 3x3 is to start basic" - THIS. What I DON'T LIKE about modern 3x3s is how overengineered they feel. I love the Guhong V4, new RS3Ms, and Tornado V3 because they are just straightforward, good cubes. No 1296 magnet settings, no destroying and modifying the whole cube to make it good (Looking at you WRM V9), no box/robot/watch/dating guide included, just a nice cube that feels smooth and solid. At least for me, all I want is a solid, clean feeling cube that will last and not be gimmicky. More features =/= better. Also 4x4 and 5x5 hardware hasn't significantly improved for a few years. Please stop teasing new cubes and actually drop them manufacturers 🙏

Why the v9? Its just feels the best with those edge magnets. But yeah, if they would release a ball core non edgr magnet version, that would be more popular.

as someone who owns all of these cubes, they all have their own strengths. if you want to move to a cube more flexible, the wrmv9 is definitely a great pick, and if you want something that has comparable stability to the tv3, the rs3v5 is great. the gan 12 and guhong pro are both middle grounds between stable and flexible, but the guhong pro feels a bit more solid while the gan 12 feels a bit more airy and soft.

I personally think that if your cube is UV coated, or has any other PVC coating, logos should be fine in blind events as it’s literally under the coating and you cant feel it.
