The thing I like about Qiyi, specifically X-man, is that there cubes have actually names and it’s not just numbers.
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😂
@@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.😂
Yes!!! Idc about the Gan 11 M Pro Lite Mini etc. I care about The Tornado v3
@@MoFangGeQiYiwait qiyi is there that means they watched the video!
do you mean their?
Hey guys, I haven’t seen the vid yet (obviously) but I would love to see moyu stop with realeasing cubes every 2 seconds.
ofc😂
You guessed it 😂
Why tho ? The cubes are great
@@stxmo6805because we’re going broke
@@stxmo6805most cubes are kinda similar
I would love to see more collaborations between cube companies like the PiCube & MoYu Weilong V9 ^_^
Me to. Like the picube wrm v9
I appreciate the comments and humility from you guys at the end. I love the Cubicle's honesty and professionalism. Please keep it up!
I definitely would love blank UV coated center caps.. the only 3x3 over $10 I own (rs3m v5) is unusable for blind😭
Now with Moyu going crazy with prices and Gan making very minor changes to their cubes and charging the same amount of money I'm really hoping for QiYi, Dayan and Diansheng to show some effort.
Same, i really hope dayan will make big cubes or side events
Qiyi made a Smartcube
Thanks for the update on the cubing market! I have been out of the loop for quite some time.
It seems like Phil only know these companies as a whole, actually there are lots of personnel changes during recent years. Which has significant influence on product plan of these companies. If you can have a chance to visit China in the future, welcome to Chenghai to know more about us😂
BTW, thanks for mentioning us, we do still developing new product, but as a new company, we have taken much effort to deal with production stuff, so the new product development haven't goes smoothly as our expectation, but hope next year you can see it and hope it will be more competitive than before😊
Honestly, I'm glad you brought up MoreTry, because I'm one of the few people who bought the Snap off your recommendation, and all this time later it's still one of my favorite cubes to just casually use. Hopefully they can come out with something new soon!
the snap is my main, i love it
Really interesting insight. I‘m exited for this cubing hardware year.
I’d like to see Yuxin return with more big cubes
Great insights. Few are in a position to make these expert comments. Thanks!
Really hoping either DaYan or DianSheng release a new FTO this year.
This ^
I agree.
Better make it Magnetic at least
*shakes head vigorously*
nods^
i know shengshou isnt in the picture anymore but i think with some inspiration they could make a really good cube
The price and quality speak for itself.
- Phil Yu (2024)
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!
I hope this year goes well
I would really really like to see some new 4x4 hardware, and I'm looking forward to more Megaminx releases
It wouldn't hurt to see some more 2x2s as well
Right
Same
Totally agree, 3x3 isnt the ONLY event in the worls
True
More vids with Tymon!! Love the channel
What about yuxin?
I would like to see magnetic core big cubes with an adjustment system and UV coated World Record times would drop by a ton. Gr8 Video as usual! 🔥🔥
nice idea
Gan is making a Megaminx v2. It will hopefully come out very soon. My wishlist is one flagship moyu 3x3 with a new dual adjustment system, a really good Gan 15, Gan 5x5, Gan 4x4, Gan sq1, Tornado V4 and the Gan Megaminx
Happy New Year! everyone
I want to see moyu and gan to start making non wca puzzles as they have the money to run a big non wca branch and it would add more competition to fto and other non wca puzzles
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.
I agree with basically everything but I want Dayan to re release the tengyun V1, because it’s the best cube for 3bld and it’s not available.. so they could make a lot of money by still selling it
it is still available. Maybe they started making it again
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.
i love my dayan guhong pro. but yes, i would definitely try their flagship if they are going to release one!!
Would love to see some new square-1s this coming year

@@c00bmaster 🙀
when you asked about the company I wanna see realese a cube in that hasnt realesed a cube in a long time I immidiately thought about fangshi, gues I am not the only one that liked shuangres back in the days😅
Thirded. I don't get my best times on them but there's just something incredible about the feel.
When will you guys make a video about the Vin Cube 4x4. I really want to hear your thoughts on it!
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
Diansheng made good giant 3x3s and their magnetic really big cubes (8x8 and up) are also really good.
YES THE FANGSHI!!! that was my most recent main once upon a time. (getting back into cubing) i love the illusion aspect. simply a V2 (edit: V3 didnt know there was a V2) with magnets would be very appreciated.
i really want that square 1 gan teased in the Q&A 2 yrs ago
GAN are following all of the things the cubicle were hoping they would do. I hope they finish it off by releasing the square 1...
2:51 they finally made the best 5x5 as of 2024, according to the reviews
I signed up for my first rubix cube competition today and then realized that it's sponsored by the cubicle and I was wondering if you are going to be there (it's this month)
Better pyra hardware would make steven happy
Fanshi shuangren v3 would be awesome. I still love my shuangren v2, it is still really good for being such an old cube
I just wanna see the mini big cubes Zi Hao designed hit the market. I would love a mini 7x7!
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.
I want more magnetic, speed gigaminx options… I hope this puzzle catches on!
Imagine that fan or some other company just commented on this video and said something like “Noted” and then took your advice. Kinda hope Moyu does, because I love there cubes but now they only do 3x3’s. Honestly, I’ve been getting kinda good at 2x2, and I would love to see the Gan 2x2 get some competition, ever if it is out of Moyu’s comfort zone.
honestly as a square-1 main the only thing i want is a new square-1 that doesnt break or require modding to be good
Isn’t the MGC good? I’m a Squaner too, but I don't see problems with the MGC.
@@TesseractCubing no the mgc sucks in most ways a puzzle can suck. it needs modding to be usable which a puzzle shouldn't need in 2024. and it breaks all the time, i think ive broken 7 or 8 mgc squans.
just dont do squan lil bro
I do 3x3 and I use the gan 14 and have never broken a cube and I average 15 and I plan all of f2l in inspection
@@geurk skill issue
When I heard the name Shuangren I got actual chills. When was v2 released, like 10 years ago at this point?
not any specific company but i want to see a smart 4x4 or other big cubes i know it would be hard but also amazing
I genuinely think dayan should make an even layered cube, ive never seen them make them and really want to know if their 4x4 or 6x6 will be good
17:10 ShuangRen V3, GuoGuan. Man I consider myself a boomer in the cubing community (Started off with non-magnetic YJ, witnessed the magnetic revolutuion) and I still have never heard of these
I also want Dayan to have CZcams and Instagram,it will be very cool.
are you guys gonna do a video about new 20 magnet ball core weilong v9?
Please please please can GAN make a squan already 🙏
I would like to see someone make an attempt at clock maybe gan
I just want an actually good 4x4 from somebody, everyone is like "omg use mgc" but it literally pops too much unless you want it to be too tight
Hi phil 👋. Do you think we will be seeing the gan 15 or 16 during 2024?
Just wondering when the cubicle bag will back in stock?
4:54 there is a qiyi 5x5 too (x-man)
MoYu should have a blank center cap in the box, I had to sand down the cap to take the logo off
Anyone else go through immense aural pain every time Phil scratchy scrapes paper with a sharpie
Gan already has a Mega V2, and it was used by LML to set the WRs. They just haven't officially released it yet.
9:28 they are making qy smart cubes a tv3 version and some budget versions
What's your opinion on a Gan cube with a ball core
i want tornado v 4 aswell
How about new skewbs and clocks?
Diansheng has been going on fire for big things! They're going to release a big, magnetic 2x2! Do you think Diansheng can make a magnetic 21x21?
Just entered for the Benmajin plushie
Fangshi Shuangren V3 would be 🔥 🔥 🔥
A Benmajin plushie is long overdue imo. I love the stuff you were saying and I'd be happy to see at least some of these suggestions come to life. And please MoYu stop being dummb with the packaging and include a blank center cap instead of useless accessories.
On my side, I want more Cubicle products (lubes, core magnet kits, etc.)
Gan: >Gan 12/ 5x5/ square-1
MoYu: one word, STOP
QiYi: More
Yj: Better 3x3/ Social Media
Diansheng: Get Good
Dayan: Flagship Cube/ Social
Rubik’s: Recognition
Cubicle: Benjamin Plushy 🤩
17:19 yessir
Please for the love of god, some company needs to make a good FTO. It's such a fun event and would sell so well
I want Yuxin and Sengso/shengshou to come out with a banger soon
I’m calling for the Dayan x QiYi tengnado V4 this year
Gan 5×5 prototype has been given to seung heuk nahm. To test
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. With the v11, they better be making those in 2 different cube. Yes, than there would be like 12 different v9, but... Dont they want to make good cube for everybody?
(Yes, v11, cuz the super weilong is technically the v10)
That thumbnail tho 😂😂😂😂😂
I want a YS3M V2
It’s the best cube. Patrick ponce OH WR and Luke Garrett 3.44 WR2
I want to see sengso improve on the yufeng and yuxin to make something viable maybe a big cube
what about the yuxin ?? the yuxin little magic 3x3 cube had like huge potential but with some silly flaws and moderate feeling... they should try more in the field of budget 3x3s and other budget puzzles...
16:57 guoguan is a sub-brand from moyu so maybe that explains it
So sad that the thumbnail cuts off the end of Weilong V42069
May i please get a link for that octopus plushie?
Should i get the gan 12 (uv), guhong pro, wrm v9 or rs3 v5? I have the tv3 (yoo cube deluxe but the lube isn‘t that strong anymore) and just want to try something new that feels a bit different. Btw love ur Vids❤
Also wanna buy the fz lubes
I really like the wrm V9, you shouldn't regret buying it
@@Average30sI bought both of them, excited to try them out!
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.
Thank y‘all so much for the help i think i‘ll go with the wrm v9 and the fz lubes
I would buy the tornado v4 and gan sq1
I want to see a Moyu megaminx
I think with cubing companies we finally have good hardware with every event but side events often take a lot of work to make them good. You don’t even need to make a new puzzle just do what Moyu did with the v9, to fix mistakes with the v9 they just made a special edition which fixes a lot of the problems with the v9.
*cough* sq- *cough* squa- oops sorry
The home improvement grunt haha 😂
Hot take: there is no need for a tornado v4 yet, the v3 is still one of the best cubes in the market, its the one with the most features and its still being compared to cubes like the Weilong V10
I reckon moyu should also focus 2x2
Philming this! LOL.
I'd like to see a new clock, because now the qiyi clock is the only good one, maybe a gan clock that would be interesting.
hi phil
Really wish Moyu made rs5m to rs7m and other puzzles to rs, cheap but really good puzzles
Does anyone else hate the sound of dry sharpie on paper? I think it would be better if you used a whiteboard. To me it sounds like nails on a chalkboard (I know this is a small complaint, this is a great vid)
maybe gan12 v2 soon this year
It is confirmed that the xmd 5x5 will be released in this year, plus the upcoming Gan 5x5 ,its gonna be a big year from 5s
And the xmd 5 is probably going to be the first manufacturer ballcore 5x5
What about YuXin?
What about YUXIN?
Can believe you didn’t include yuxin
