  • YJ MGC: thecubicle.us/yj-mgc-p-10493....
    This is our in depth review of the YJ MGC, YJ's first magnetic 3x3. Coming in at just $14.99, the MGC boasts an impressive price to performance ratio. Our testers noted that the cube had a sturdy, stable feel with moderate turning speed. Blockiness and catching were slight concerns. Despite us favoring pricier flagships in head-to-head comparison, we are optimistic that the MGC is a great choice for those on a budget.
    Special thanks to our new intern, Jerich Lee, for contributing his opinion.

    Remember when 15 dollars was an average price for 3x3s?

    Your reviews are so awesome! I love how you state factual, non-biased information in the beginning, then have several people share their opinion on the puzzle.

    IMPORTANT TIP
    The quality control on the cube I got wasn't very good. As a result, one of my edges had the wrong polarity of magnets. This cause the cube to be very subpar, but once I took those magnets out and replaced them, it is my main over the SM.

    • @legendcuber3638
      @legendcuber3638 Před 6 lety +3

      Takeshi Yanagita Is that cube that great to beat a sm ? (I don't agree)

    • @georgescholey
      @georgescholey Před 6 lety +3

      LEGEND CUBER well if you don't agree that's fine, it's all down to personal preference. Personally I prefer the cosmic MF3RS2M to all flagship cubes

    • @legendcuber3638
      @legendcuber3638 Před 6 lety +1

      George Scholey correct 👍, I agree

    • @Ll-cn2ov

      Takeshi Yanagita mine had the polarity wrong too how did you get them out?

    • @takeshiyanagita1678
      @takeshiyanagita1678 Před 6 lety +2

      It helps to throw the piece in the freezer. it makes the glue more brittle. But in the end it just comes down to hacking away at the glue to dislodge the piece. Good luck!

    @matt5g Před 6 lety

    As soon as I received my MGC it instantly became my main Then I put lube in and it completely destroyed my Air Sm which is crazy since I love the Sm so much. I set my MGC up with the other springs, lubicle black, dignitas, and gravitas. It feels great and I would say fits my turning style perfectly.

  • @JohnnyHikesSW
    @JohnnyHikesSW Před 6 lety +1

    I wanted to love the MGC soooo much but honestly pretty much every non-magnetic flagship released over the last 3 years is better IMO.
    YJ can easily turn this around by modifying the corner base and track design to have less contact between pieces, but as of right now the cube is very niche and I can only see a limited amount of people using it.

    • @thaddius5620
      @thaddius5620 Před 6 lety +5

      the hualong is supporsed to be the new best cube. also, its preety cheap for a flagship.

    • @GoIrish2026
      @GoIrish2026 Před 6 lety +2

      GreenCuber not the new *best* Just a new option

    • @Cuber-ml8gj
      @Cuber-ml8gj Před 6 lety +3

      They feel very similar, but the little magic has a weird finish to the plastic, and the huanglong is faster. The huanglong in my opinion is better(but more expensive)

    • @fatherfilth3784
      @fatherfilth3784 Před 6 lety +1

      Get an MF3RS2, Its basically a budget-friendly Weilong gts2. Also if you want to you can get the magnetic cubicle labs version or just buy some magnets to put inside. Alot of people (most notibly Legoboyz3) use the magnetic cubicle labs version as their main over a Gans or Valk

    • @cyotheking
      @cyotheking Před 6 lety +1

      Aldrin John Alonzo huanglong is much better IMO.

    • @aldrinjohnalonzo5414
      @aldrinjohnalonzo5414 Před 6 lety

      cyotheking ok, but i heard that the huanglong is very fast so how can you slow it down? BTW your one of my favorite youcubers.

    • @TryItCZ
      @TryItCZ Před 6 lety

      Aldrin John Alonzo the one I got came with extra springs that helped, and also use heavy lube on core with silk or a angstrom lube on peice, also if it is still too fast try weight 3

    • @aldrinjohnalonzo5414
      @aldrinjohnalonzo5414 Před 6 lety

    • @thevalkingdead4071
      @thevalkingdead4071 Před 6 lety

      blue eclipse It depends on what you want your cube to feel like after being lubed. I personally used Traxxas 50k and break it in very well. If you like a “lighter” lube job, then the 30k could work for you. I’d recommend the 50k though.

    • @leadcube591
      @leadcube591 Před 6 lety +1

      50k is more versatile; put in a little at a time and break in until you get the feel you're looking for
