Excellent review Pi! Was supposed to get the cubes today but guess I'll get it tomorrow. I ordered both the white/black and pillowed V-cube 3s. Looking forward to solving them. I think the design looks very familiar of other V-cube products, although yes those "torpedos" seem to be a new addition. Either way, been meaning to get this cube and excited to try it out. Keep up the great work! :-)
I don't mean to be a hater, I've been a sub for a while, but I honestly think you were trying a little too hard in this video to prove that V-Cubes didn't knock off DaYan. Did you really have to jump to the conclusion that DaYan was the one that knocked off V-Cubes, if anyone was knocking anyone else off? Even respected companies like V-Cubes are capable of doing bad things such as knocking off other puzzles. It almost sounds like you think V-Cubes is incapable of such thing. I truly do repect your opinion, after all, this is *my* personal opinion, but the way you talk about it just doesn't sound the most reasonable.
If you want to get technical, everyone copied rubik's. However, Rubik's brand cubes are a bit stiff (by that I mean absolutely horrible). It just depends on what you like, like I have the Moyu Weilong 3x3 which I love, so its all preference. No one really copies anyone.
Yes, but from the Rubik's brand to the newer cubes is definitely a large jump in design, the V-Cube and Guhong, however, are very similar. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying V-Cube knocked off DaYan, but it's just a suspicious situation.
Yeah, I'm a relatively new cuber, about two months. I have got a total of 4 cubes, lol, so i wouldn't know much but my own opinion and others I have seen on videos.
Depends on preference. If you don't want to have good times and have a lot of money, get the V3. The Dayan Zhanchi is extremely fast but has a crispy feel. On the other hand, the Guhong has a nice smooth flow to it and feels really stable in your hands. The Guhong and Zhanchi are both very fast cubes and have very close corner cutting and turning, it's just a matter of how you turn the cube and which one fits your style better.
This is extremely interesting. I never thought to look at higher power cubes and note the similarities to the lower powered ones, especially how edges can be "fused" into a single edge piece.
Let's keep in mind that when Dayan came out with their 3x3 they were a brand new company. V cube already has a good idea how to make cubes. So you can't really compare the first Dayan cube to the v cube 3
@kopi0hun Good question, but no. The Zhanchi has extensions that stick out into the corner. That just gets in the way of V-Cube. RedKB on his life stream with the Guhong did the same thing & still didn't fit right.
F2L = First 2 Layers. You Will Getting The First Two Layers At The Same Time. OLL = Orienting Last Layer. You Will Be Getting The Last Few Pieces Oriented With Yellow On Top. PLL = Permute Last Layer. You Will Be Switching Around All The Top Layer Pieces To The Correct Spot, Solving The Cube.
From my point of view I see that Dayan copied V-Cubes but at the same time V-Cubes copied Dayan. Dayan built the Zhanchi resembling other V-Cubes and taking out the pieces that weren't necessary and when V-Cubes saw that they got annoyed which is why they knocked off the GuHong. So yeah, it is even.
You should have used the squishy springs if spring noise doesn't bother you. But Goldilocks springs are medium springs, Not too much spring noise, not too stiff, and you have 6 springs, just right.
You know you don't have to quite use that much lubix? Also, you're supposed to lube the 6 screws / where they meet with the core, to allow the centers to spin faster. You do that, and just put a small amount of lubix where 2 pieces rub together, and it'll spread quite a bit.
Well it was up to date when he uploaded. Billy is not much of a speedcuber anymore, he just collects i believe. He is also getting older and is focusing on education and etc.
Im not hating. Im just telling the truth. The v-cube does not at all match up to current speedcubes. I tried their 3×3, its like a round rubiks brand. The 4×4... bit better but slow. Stickers were bad. Turning was slow. Much worse then the weisu or shengshou.
@SamBCuber The problem is that what V-Cube patented wasn't each individual cube, but a method for constructing cubes of a wide range of sizes, including the 3x3. This patent was filed before Dayan produced the GuHong or the ZhanChi. Though I had never heard of the torpedos idea before the ZhanChi, so that could be a valid gripe and something V-Cube was ripping off... but the GuHong was made by similar methods to the V-Cube company's after their patent was filed.
CAST Corp No, VCUBES copied Dayan, ands since Dayan is technically original, VCUBES didn't copy themselves. And about the Guhong looking a *bit* like the VCUBE 5, don't 95% of what we call "original design" 3x3s very slightly resemble it anyways? You can find similarities between ANY two mechanisms, after all.
I am pretty sure that V-Cubes went after DaYan because the GuHong is almost the same a a bandaged V-6. I guess V-Cubes wanted to get DaYan back by stealing the GuHong, or maybe just because it was still a bandaged V-6. Still, it is not as good. this has been done again, with New Island and QIYI although less so. New Island basically rebranded the QIYI Bullfight, so QIYI decided to get them back by stealing New Island's box and bag. In my opinion, Seven Towns and V-Cubes are just companies that are going to eventually end the cubing community by shutting every other company down, if you have heard of Rubik's recent "patent case."
Dude you truly are an insightful person. Honestly, thank you for all of that. I would love to be friends with you if you went to my school. The detail you go into is so deep and well researched, and you just seem very passionate.
The thing about the cubing community is it's all out there. Designers and inventors can easily just buy the latest product and figure out everything about it by taking it apart. There are really no secret technologies being used and that is what makes it so easy to just copy another brand. It would be interesting to see a model of a cube that doesn't come apart whilst maintaining a newer internal mechanism.
Hey everyone--- I'm a new cuber and just got into cubing. After watching the tutorial by TheSergsB, I had a time of 3 minutes on my official cube. Wanting to go faster, I got something called like a YJ Sulong- I'm not sure. My time is 1.00.35. So, if anyone is kind enough to reply, could somone give me a link for a clean, understandable tutorial for a faster way to solve (i.e., the way Pi solves)?My personal goal is 30 seconds. Gotta start somewhere!!! Thanks
Pi solves using Friedrich method, or CFOP. It is quite advanced, and I would wait til you get to 30-40 seconds to learn it. Remember, it's the little things that add up to a shorter time, so keep practicing.
you dont have to learn full fridrich yet, but definitely learn intuitive f2l or first two layers. if you get good at that, you can drop your time a lot. my ave is about 18 or 19
god dude. seriously bro? your videos are so damn good, i have watched some many of them and they've helped me so much. you sir have earned yourself a sub. congradulations.
wow, i thought for sure I wouldn't watch this whole video, but i ended up sitting through the entire thing. Really good job. Really good video. You seem very comfortable on camera.
+, V-cube 4 stole eastsheen mechanism (whose patent was expired) and called it "new technology". Its alignment mechanism is knocked off from the X cube 4
Hey I just got into the cubing community like last weekend and I find myself really liking cubing. It was really cool to see a video that showed insight into the cubing world and gave some history about it. I taught myself how to solve a 3x3 for the first time last week and ive been watching videos ever since. But none of them gave me any information other than the cube itself.
Sorry, i made the Zhanchi sound like it was bad a bit. It's an amazing cube, don't get me wrong, It has really good cutting, smooth turning and is overall an amazing cube. It's just made for really fast cubers who fit in a bunch of moves really really tight together making it slightly less "stable" than the guhong, which glides, but is not meant to be turned THAT fast. SO if you're above 30 seconds, I'd recommend the guhong, it will just work much better for you and still be very fast.
instead there were those "Bob" comments being spammed ruthlessly by 10-year-olds who were bitter because of Google+'s acquisition of the UA-cam comments section
I think the V-cube 3 is a must have if you collect all the V-cubes. But if you are looking for a good speedcube, there are a few better ones with lower price tags.
the way I see it is that dayan came out with their cube first and v-cube didn't even use the mechanism it patented so v-cube has no right to complain. especially since they are unwilling to come out with a cube that the cubers actually want (like the 8x8-11x11).

Very good video, one of your best. Extremely informative on both the review part, but the controversy part was outstanding. Thank you for informing me :)
I just got a pillowed shape v-cube 3 from barns and noble and its pretty good. And yes that is the only store I know that sells the v cube 3 and the v cube7 in America
I really want to believe in V-cubes and what they put out. I own a white V2, a black V2, a white V2b, a black V3, a white V3b, a white V5, a black V6 and a white V7. But I am losing my faith in them. I brought a white Shengshou 6x6 and 8x8 products out of frustration for the failures of the company in not releasing products fast enough.
did you switch the colors around on the stickerless zhanchi, i saw that you had the different then what i normally see. redkb switched his around making me notice yours. I look from the red clockwise to be red-white-blue, did you switch yours?

This is extremely interesting. I never thought to look at higher power cubes and note the similarities to the lower powered ones, especially how edges can be "fused" into a single edge piece.
I got my Dyan Zhanchi Stickerless for $11.49 from Amazon in 2 days fully assembled.
so did I like a week ago LOL
Me too, the edge pieces are different on that one than the standard Zhanchi, which makes me think it's a Guhong.
I thinkfor me a fully lubed Zhanchi would be to fast. But its pretty nice how it is out of the box!

Good question, but no. The Zhanchi has extensions that stick out into the corner. That just gets in the way of V-Cube.

SO if you're above 30 seconds, I'd recommend the guhong, it will just work much better for you and still be very fast.

I think the V-cube 3 is a must have if you collect all the V-cubes. But if you are looking for a good speedcube, there are a few better ones with lower price tags.
Amazing, perfect review. You missed absolutely nothing, I've subed.
V-cube should come out with a 3x3 called the reVenge, and it should be one of those cubes that comes out of nowhere and is super good
You must also take into consideration the fact that guhongs and zhan chi's were out well before v-cubes manufactured this 3x3.
Good thing i bought the V-cube 3 assembled already.
Remember back when Zhanchi and Guhong were the best speed cubes on the market? Oh yeah, those days 5 years ago...
He had already solved the cube. At 3:38 the "v" is facing up towards the blue side, and at 3:42 it is facing up towards the orange side.
Keep in mind, V-Cube's 3x3x3 was released more later than the Zhanchi so V-Cube has more idea and V-Cube copied the pieces and torpedo
i personally like the guhong v2. I hear that pretty much if you dont like the zhanchi, you'll like the guhong v2 and vice versa
@Joseph44556 - You can get it from Lubixcubes or any US cube store.
This may be a noob question but if you live in the U.S. then how can you buy something off of v-cubes website when they charge euros?
@MGtechman98
Yeah, but I was at college. Forgot to mention that.
I enjoyed this review - thanks. You seem to know your stuff! Are there any dates set for a release of the 9x9x9?
Well,it's easy to make a void cube,if your cube is adjustible,you can remove center caps ;)
There was another pillowed version of the V-Cube 3.
Correct in my opinion, but Dayan was arrested and sales were removed when Dayan became a knockoff. I then changed my opinion.
@Skitzo520 - You're absolutely right.
Where did u get the zanchi??????
in hindsight, it's silly to say, anyone is copying anyone. That was my argument.
Would there be a significant difference between this and the pillowed version?
Why was this recommended to me 7 years after it came out?
the way I see it is that dayan came out with their cube first and v-cube didn't even use the mechanism it patented so v-cube has no right to complain. especially since they are unwilling to come out with a cube that the cubers actually want (like the 8x8-11x11).
Some people call MeMySelfAndPi fat. Even though he may be a bit over weight, that doesn't means he's ugly. He's a cool guy.

I just got a pillowed shape v-cube 3 from barns and noble and its pretty good. And yes that is the only store I know that sells the v cube 3 and the v cube7 in America
I really want to believe in V-cubes and what they put out. I own a white V2, a black V2, a white V2b, a black V3, a white V3b, a white V5, a black V6 and a white V7. But I am losing my faith in them. I brought a white Shengshou 6x6 and 8x8 products out of frustration for the failures of the company in not releasing products fast enough.
did you switch the colors around on the stickerless zhanchi, i saw that you had the different then what i normally see. redkb switched his around making me notice yours. I look from the red clockwise to be red-white-blue, did you switch yours?
