This cube is a very good cube, cuts 45 just like other. The one problem with this cube is that the edge pieces are slightly rectangular, making the cube feel very weird while turning it. Also, the pieces as sharp and your hands get sore after a while

When I received my Dianma, out of the box, it was lacking in performance however after using a mix of traxxis 30k and 50k on the piece and breaking it in with 1000 solves, it became amazing. The speed drastically improved and the corner cutting as it stands is exceptional. I even use it for OH and BLD. Trust me, if you set the cube up correctly the performance will improve greatly. It was my main for about one-and-a-half years

The Moyu Dianma is in between a 3 and 4 star rating, for beginners. For SpeedCubers, this is not really the cube for them. The puzzle is slow, (for SpeedCubers) but smooth. Corner Cutting is the best feature on this cube, normal Corner Cutting is easily 45 Degrees, (and can reach 55-60 on correct tensions). Inner Corner Cutting is half a piece with force. Locking on this cube is often since the layers are oddly shaped from other cubes and might cause your fingers to catch. Corner Twists are ok depending on how fast of a Cuber you are. Popping is minimal due to torpedoes.
Other information: M Slices are not great from the thin layers. this review is not a out of the box performance, some of the info above may be different from: Lubricant, Tensioning, Hand Size, Speed and overall Thought. The centers are rounded and small, the edges are thin and the corners are large. Edges are hollow. pieces are sharp.
Final Statements: Not recommended for speed cubers. Smooth, does not Pop, and excellent Corner Cutting.

It is a fast cube and has an unique feel. Corner cutting is well over 45 degrees and reverse may be better than what is on the market. The anti-pop mechanism works effectively so the cube may be set at extremely loose tensions, making the corner cutting even better. Locking rarely happens, but when it happens, the cube usually cuts through it.
Popping is rare, but corner twists are frequent.
The only thing about the cube is that the edge pieces are significantly smaller than the corner pieces, giving it a strange look. Other than that, performing H-perms or using roux with this cube is terrible. The pieces are pretty sharp.
It is a good cube, but due to the difference between the edge and corner piece may give the cube a different feel. The outer faces are smooth and fast, but M-slice execution may be difficult.
