budget 2x2 and its a little sluggish

I think its a nice budget 2x2.

I think the yuxin 2x2 is a great value.

POPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Out of the box the yuxin white can pop easily due to it being really loose . So tighten it.
Its really smooth but can lock a little bit.
Its a decent 2x2, recommend.

This is a good 2x2 for beginner cubers. It has basically reached the standards for what a beginning cube must have. It was fast out of the box and the shades contrast nicely. Also a great budget 2x2.

The Yuxin 2x2 is the first 2x2 in the Yuxin line-up. It is an attempt to become the best budget 2x2 on the market. Out of the box it was a smooth, fast turning puzzle with a slight bumpiness every here and there. It came with shades similar to Moyu and I have since replaced them with my preferred set. After setting the cube up, it had the same fast turning with the smooth and slight bumpy feel. The corner cutting was a different story. Although it easily cuts at 45 normal, the reverse is about 1/4. This combined with the fast turning of the puzzle means that lock-ups are frequent. I think that the locking is the major difference in the best budget 2x2 in this case. I would recommended this cube; however, I would prefer the YJ Yupo 2x2.

locks up a bit and is tight but good for starters

This 2x2 is pretty smooth but stiff out of the box. (by stiff, I mean tight and locks up every now and then.) But as my first 2x2 this cube definitely met my expectations.

Being a fan of the YuXin line of speed cubes, I picked this 2x2 up to give it a test and to see how it compared to some other budget 2x2s.

Overall, the feel was great right out of the box. It has a very smooth, yet crisp feel to it and just feels great to turn during algorithms and solves.

Tensions were a little tight out of the box, but with some loosening and applying some lube, it feels really fast and responsive.

Only downside I can see with this cube is the corner cutting, which requires some force to make it cut 45, and that's even on very loose tensions. Reverse cutting is also very little, so lock ups can be frequent if you attempt to solve it very quickly.

I wouldn't recommend this cube to a veteran cuber because of these flaws, but it is a very nice 2x2 and would highly recommend it to a beginner speed cuber at the price.
