MagicYoYo K2 Crystal - Unboxing Review and PLAY!

So I finally posted a review of the Magic YoYo K2 Crystal. I actually bought this yoyo a couple of months ago so I've gotten a chance to play with it and try to get a good feel of how it performs.


Just an insight, most of the yoyos that I review, I usually spend a couple of weeks playing with it to get familiar with the feeling. Sometimes it's a couple of weeks, but honestly there are yoyos I've had for nearly a year that I still need to get a review up.


But the K2 is definitely an interesting yoyo. It's categorized as a "budget" yoyo and with that price it definitely hits the mark on that. But the performance is definitely no joke. I don't own much modern unresponsive throws (Vosun Trinity, MagicYoYo Skyva, YoYo Factory Northstar) but none of them are under $10! I know if you buy one Crystal it's around $10-15, but I bought the double pack at $18 making each one $9.


It's very aesthetically simple but catches your eye. Designed with a dimple for finger spins (kinda small, but I have skinny fingers so it's good for me). Spins long, plays well , and easy to play fast.

Is it the best plastic yoyo? NO, it's definitely. Since the design looks to have the weight distributed to the rims and the dimple in the center of the cup would give the Crystal a long rim weight spin time but it doesn't take much to shift the angle from the central axis. What I mean by that is if say you are doing an underpass or roll and the yoyo slightly hits or grazes the rim, it changes the rotational direction pretty easily.

But for it's price and performance, I will have to say that it is the best plastic yoyo for that price.

I feel that the Crystal has a 40C/60R (C=center/R=rim) because the body design makes the yoyo feel like the weight is onto the outer rim, and with a dimple in the center cup for finger spins, it lacks the axle stability.
