This literally took less than 5 days to reach!
Moyu WRM 2021 is the latest flagship from Moyu cube is really good for its price and I'm happy they've stuck to the 55mm size as well, will make it easier for OH solving.
Some shortfalls: 1. The magnet adjustment system is really time staking. Having to adjust on every single edge is annoying and takes forever. The visibility is also not great considering the primary internals. 2. The cube is really fast to the point where it overshoots a bit with every turn, so this is definitely going to take a little time to lube and get used to. 3. The primary internals aren't something I'm a fan of. I really like the regular internals on the 2019 version so I'm hoping the final version has it.
Quick comparison - WRM 2019 - Bubbly, controllable, has spring compression system, weak magnets (non-modifiable) WRM 2020 - Little faster, different feel from 2019, has spring compression, stronger magnets (non-modifiable) WRM 2021 - Really fast, almost the same feel as 2020, has spring compression, magnet strength modifiable

First of all, thanks a lot to Mats Valk for sending me the cubes.
The cube feels like a faster meiying and the size is perfect for One handed solving. It is much smoother and the stickers are brighter than standard Half-Brights. If you liked the meiying, you could upgrade to this, for sure! I personally enjoy solving on this cube (both for One handed and 2 handed) because of its size (5.55 cm), but the stickers hurt me a bit as I am not usually inclined towards stickered/ bright cubes. I'll definitely go for the stickerless version once it is out. I would definitely recommend this cube if you are an OH enthusiast. Although 5.55cm doesn't seem to be noticeably smaller than 5.6cm, you can definitely feel the cube sitting in your fingers pretty well.
FInding it hard to get used to 56mm/ 57mm cubes for OH? Just go get this!12.55 One-Handed ao12 (11.56 average of 5)Bhargav Narasimhan2016-05-22 | First video after a long hiatus.
