The Lingpo is very sandy and fast out of the box. It was way too fast for me and caused me to overshoot so the cube locked up, so after lubing it with some Traxxas 50k and making the tensions a bit tighter it was AMAZING!! I highly recommend this cube for beginner, intermediate and advanced speedcubers.

This is an amazing cube.Speed is great which makes it uncontrollable. Corner-cutting is 50 degrees, and 1/3 cubie on reverse.Cube can lock-up on PBL but its a rarely. Its smooth and chrunchy at the same time.Out of box,it was uncontrollable with corner cut from every spot. You must to teach how to control this cube and you will be very satisfied.

This cube out of the box has a really dry and sandy feel which I didn't really like. So I tensioned it and lubed it with weight 3 lube, that didn't work. I cleaned it out and used Traxxas 50k that made this cube amazing. Now mine has about 250 solves and is great.

My main 2x2! This cube could be near-perfect for almost anyone without being lubed or tensioned. All other info is seen above. Overall, good cube

This is a cube for people who like fast cubes. This cube is fast and you can make it even faster by adding light lube. This can have some lock ups. It's very light, crunchy, and bumpy when you unbox it. Recommend this if your looking for a new 2x2 or getting your first 2x2

When I first took this cube out of the box it had a very unexpected feel. It felt very scratchy, dry and kind of sandy. It was at an average speed and it didn't really need lube, but I put some in anyway. Traxxas 30k on the core and pieces. After I did, oh my lord, this cube was fast. I would mess up on algorithms because it was so fast, but after getting the hang of it, it got a lot better. Even though the large size of the pieces, this cube some how corner flips. Its a rare occasion, but it does. It doesn't pop and corner cuts well, past 45 degrees easily. Due to this the cube doesn't lock that much either. A weird problem happened to mine though. Since the screws have a dome shape on the top, it would scratch on the pieces, since 2x2s don't have center caps, but I fixed that by tightening the tensions. Despite all of its problems, this cube got me all of my PBs, and it's surely my main. I give this cube a 4/5

This is a great 2x2. It has the smooth, buttery feel that you come accustomed to with Moyu cubes through breaking in. There are no catches, corner twists or pops but that is expected with 2x2's. It can cut over 45 degrees and about 30 reverse. It is a good cube for beginners and intermediate solvers, but I am not sure about more advanced solvers.

The speed of the lingpo is fast, with a crispy smooth feel. The corner cutting is *superb* on sides without the alignment mechanism, but just under 45 on the sides that do. The reverse cutting is good, but you can really feel it when you cut small amounts. Twisting and popping are not an issue at all. This is a great puzzle, but practically the same as a yupo. You can't really go wrong with this puzzle.

The LingPo out of the box is extremely fast and feels extremely nice. Corner cutting is what I expected for 2x2 these days. It's just past 45 degrees and reverse is 2/3 piece, but overall, I think the FangShi does cut better. Locking , corner twists and popping never happens on this cube. Overall this cube gets a 5-star.

The Moyu Lingpo is an amazing cube. If you are a beginner or intermediate cuber, you should definitely get the Lingpo. The Moyu Lingpo is a very smooth cube with pretty good corner cutting. The cube rarely pops and locking is a bit rare.

The Moyu LingPo is a great all around 2x2. Starting off with speed, you'll find that it is very fast, not uncontrollable but getting close. When turning there is a nice scratchy feel that does not diminish over time. The LingPo has corner cutting at a good 45 degrees. The only reason I didn't give 5 star corner cutting is that it can sometimes take a bit of effort to cut 45 degrees. The LingPo never has major locks, but I do experience very minor internal catching. This doesn't affect my times, but it can become slightly annoying. There is absolutely no corner twisting on the LingPo, but this really isn't an issue on 2x2's. I have never experienced one pop on the LingPo, which is the most impressive feature to me, as every other 2x2 I have tried has popped at least once. Overall, I give the the LingPo an all around rating of five stars. It is up at the top with the best 2x2's, and is one of my favorite cubes to solve.

This is an extremely good cube and probably one of the best 2x2s on the market. The feel is smooth yet slightly bumpy and corner cutting around 45 degrees. The only thing that might be a problem is the speed. It is extremely fast so overshooting can happen a lot and lack of reverse corner cutting could make it lock up.
Overall, very good and definitely competition worthy.

The Moyu Lingpo 2x2 is an exceptional puzzle in my opinion. For those wishing to get into 2x2 speedsolving, this is the perfect cube. To quickly note, the only slight problems with this puzzle are the ability to easily overshoot, and the slight lockups that may occur when overshooting. Other than that, this puzzle is just right. Keep in mind that this puzzle is also very loud, so for those cubers who may get annoyed at louder puzzles, this may not be the choice for you.
