The new YuXin evolves the original Kylin 3x3 speed cube which was a very good cube which allowed Colin Burns to set the former WCA Single WR of 5.25 seconds. An important addition is the magnetisation of the cube pieces with medium strength magnets which greatly improves stability and form and control during solves.
This cube comes with unique hardwiring tiles which look fantastic, and importantly will not chip, peel or fade.

Coclur scheme is cool. The magnets are too weak though.

I’ve come from the standard Rubiks brand cube and found this a delight to work with.
Smooth turns
Good corner cutting
Doesn’t lock up
Magnets are better than I expected
Only con is I think the colours aren’t vivid enough, in soft white the white and yellow are too similar.
I haven’t timed myself yet but expect a good drop in average times
