Our verdict
Beginners who want to build steady rallies get a soft response and useful help lifting defensive balls. The round face and textured finish favour learning placement and slice over chasing winners. Written reviews disagree about how forgiving and quick it feels, so its appeal is clearest for patient players rather than ambitious attackers.

How it plays
Power
Power score6.1
Limited finishing help. Reviews disagree about the degree of power available, but both point towards a racket that asks the player to supply smash speed.
Control
Control score7.5
Placement is its main strength. Defensive blocks and slower exchanges are accessible, while a lively face rewards restrained hands on volleys.
Maneuverability
Maneuverability score7.2
Serviceable rather than exceptionally fast. Reviews disagree about handling speed, with one finding effortless net reactions and another rating agility modestly.
Sweet spot
Sweet spot score7.8
Forgiveness is disputed. One review describes substantial help on mishits; another finds a narrower useful contact zone, so expectations should stay measured.
Feel
The flexible face and HR3 core give a soft response. Reviews disagree about arm comfort, so softness alone should not be treated as proof of suitability for a sensitive elbow.
