MagicYoYo N12 Shark

The N12 is more H-shaped, where-as the Shutter is more of a V

The Shutter really opens up with a CenterTrac. The N12 might need a bearing cleaning or a new bearing, as you may get a crap bearing.

The stock pads with the Shutter are fine. The stock pads in the N12 can range from “fine” to “need replacing”. Both can use the same response pads or can be siliconed.

The Shutter is better for those finger-spin grinds due to the shape of the rim, especially the cup in the center for it. The N12 lacks this.

The n12 has a surface treatment and is an OK grinder. The blasted Shutter is a great grinder. The smooth Shutter is not a good grinder at all.

The N12 costs around $30, where the Shutter can run $45. Depending on where you get it from, you can get the N12 for cheaper. Shipping on the N12 from Ebay sellers can test your patience as 21 days is NOT unusual for shipping from China

I am preferential to V shapes. I also think that as awesome as the N12 is(it plays 2.5 to 3 times it’s cost at $30 in my opinion), I feel the Shutter is the superior of the two. The N12 is still really good, probably of Magic YoYo’s best offerings to date. I feel that the T5 is also up there. Most Magic YoYos could use a bearing cleaning/swap and/or a response replacement.

Thank you very much for this in depth response ;D
