Wei Wei (韦薇) has been competing for 15 years. Her best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 29.35, set at Shanghai Winter is Coming 2016, puts her in the top 2.5% of the 85,040 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 248th in China. Until April 2012, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since November 2011, she has put 393 official solves on the record across eleven events.

Her 3×3 best has come down from 11.78 in July 2012 to 9.05, a 23% improvement. Wei has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
