Nox X Zero Blue

The X Zero Blue carries the loudest value number in this aisle: 84, attached to a Nox starter with an HR3 foam core and a mixed 3K carbon and fibreglass face scoring a 68/63 split with fair terms (comfort 68, tolerance 68) and decent hands (70). Weight documentation is incomplete. A documented carbon-mix face plus brand pedigree at this arithmetic is genuinely rare; the missing weight spec is the only asterisk. For starters who want the most racket per euro on the Nox shelf, this is the card. Check the grams in hand and buy.

Starvie Kenta

The Starvie Kenta 2026 is a diamond frame with an EVA foam core and Carbon 12K face, built for players who want directional control from a head-shape that still carries weight. Control at 84 leads the profile. Tolerance at 76 and comfort at 75 confirm a forgiving, arm-friendly character. Power at 71 is the honest trade-off. PRR score: 83/100.
