A very nice cube. Out of the box it’s incredibly dry, like sand-dRy, and also a little too tight for my liking. But once lubed and tensioned it’s great.

Outer layer magnets are a really nice strength, strong enough to feel in a solve but it’s a satisfying strength, they could be a bit strong for some people but for most they definitely won’t be too wEaK. Wide layer turns are on par with the outer turns, with magnets a little stronger but still smooth overall. My only gripe as far as magnets are concerned is the innermost middle layers. They’re fairly hard to turn due to the magnets, though there’s not much that can be done about this.

Colour scheme and all is great, red is a little dark but it makes for nice contrast against the light orange. Blue and green are gorgeous, and yellow is... well it’s yellow there’s nothing really special about it.

Forward corner-cutting is about a cubie and back is just less than half a cubie (keep in mind they’re small cubies, but with big cubes for me, corner cutting isn’t really an issue since I’m pretty sLoW, on 5x5 especially.)

I’m not a very good 5x5 solver, but this cube makes me wish I was :) Would recommend

The Aochuang is incredibly smooth and fast. Inner layer turns are completely effortless and allow for fast slicing (even <M,U> U-perms!). Outer layers are smooth and speedy, though I find there to be a few catches due to limitations of corner cutting. Overall this cube is a pleasure to turn, and I've yet to had any issues with pops.

awesome cube. Definitely recommend

This is a very fast, easy to turn, flexible 5x5 I would recommend to anyone looking to get into 5x5
