YongJun YuLong V2 M 3x3x3 Magnetic Magic Cube Stickerless

4 Stars

The YJ Yulong V2 M in the class of budget beginner magnetized cubes for maximum bang for the buck. You can't go wrong with it for the price. It is not flagship level. More the bottom of mid range. You can't go wrong paying on average one third the price of typical flagship magnetized cube. This one ranks in the same league as the Yuxin Kylin V2 M and the newly minted QiYi Thunderclap V3 M. It's one to get that will grow as your skills increase. And by then, once you peak, you will realize what flagship main you will eventually need to save up and buy if you ever want to compete. Great!

My first magnetic cube. Seems to turn well, but does have a little bit of spring noise. You can feel the magnets slightly, but I think I would actually prefer a little stronger magnet. The surface of the cube seems little slippery which when trying to solve fast can cause a slight hindrance. As I have no other budget magnetic cubes to compare this to I would have to say price vs what you get seems to be OK. The cube I received does have a scratch on one of the white edge pieces - doesn't affect how it solves, just an eye sore unfortunately.
