YuXin HuangLong 3x3

The light weight of this cube makes it feel incredibly fast and modern. I can achieve my best times despite the lack of magnets on this cube. No lock ups ever and corner twists are rare. Truly one of the last great pre-modern era cubes right there with the GTS 2 and original Valk

I wanted something that would last, and found this on clearance. Great price, good to learn with. Others say it needs some cube lube but I skipped out - I can see how for advanced users it would be good, but as a beginner I was fine.

This cube is 3+ years old, got it to try my hand at magnetizing a cube, was pleasantly surprised at how stable and well turning it is OOTB with good corner cutting especially since I'm used to newer magnetic cube tech, very nice cube for what it is. Actually better As-Is than after magnets, the plastic is real thick so would need 4x2mm N42+ all around, maybe then even add the RS3M magnetic upgrade kit for best results still quite nice overall

Always recommend to people interested in cubing!

Be aware that if you buy this cube now in 2021, the out of the box experience might be a bit rough. This cube comes pre-lubed from the factory, and it's not a popular selling cube anymore, so you might get one that has sat around for a couple years. Mine was really sticky and dried out. Plan on taking it apart when you get it and washing and scrubbing all the pieces thoroughly.

The box comes with an extra set of weaker springs in case you want to swap it out, and a set of ball bearings in case you want to add a bit of weight to the corner pieces.

Turning is fantastic. It's fast yet controllable. The cube feels very light, and the pieces feel hollow which could explain why it feels light. It's pretty quiet.

However, the corner cutting on this cube isn't great. It doesn't cut past 45 degrees. Same with reverse corner cutting. The corner cutting isn't as good as other cubes such as the GAN 354 M and the Valk 3. I've only had a few minor lockups when solving but that was because I was turning a bit rougher than I typically would.

Other than that, it's a pretty good cube overall.
If you have a light/calm turning style, then this is cube is for you!!!

It is JUST AMAZING. I was between this and the GAN Air SM. But I decided to buy this because of the price. It glides with no effort and cornercuts really well. The stickerless shades are really vibrant and they give a cube a cool appearance that even non-cubers ABSOLUTELY LOVE (sometimes I don't want to solve it because it looks awesome even when it's scrambled). Also the ball bearings alter the feeling of the cube making the half turn moves almost effortless, which is something that I really like.

This is my first actual speedcube. I broke my PB 4 TIMES in one day. I recommend this cube to everyone

At a comp, I got this from Cubedepot. This cube is great out of the box. Sandy, and fast. After lubing with SCS Weight 8(since thecubicle has no weight 8), wiping, and relubing with Traxxas 50k, is is fast but controllable. It feels smooth and the inertia balls help add weight to the turn without making it uncontrollable. The cube currently has them inside. I use this as my main now, and it fits me very well. It feels like a faster, less sandy, and more premium Little Magic. It is also more stable than the Little Magic. The cube is a good size for OH, and I used it at my comp as my OH and 3x3 round 2 main. Bottom line is, buy it if you like the LM but want more speed and stability.

The best cube ever. OOTB it was somewhat fast, so I lubed the pieces with some traxxas 30k. that's all i did.

The cube is very smooth and light and crisp. I wanted stickerless, but thecubicle was out. I bet it would have been even smoother.
