Our verdict
The Dunlop Impact Carbon Pro Ltd Blue sits in an awkward middle ground — marketed with 'Carbon Pro' branding but equipped with a fibreglass surface that softens response and limits the crisp feedback advanced beginners will need as they progress. The even balance and hybrid shape offer decent all-round playability for pure newcomers, but the price-to-performance ratio feels strained given that competing brands offer more refined beginner options at similar or lower price points. Casual starters who prioritise arm comfort over progression speed may find it adequate, but ambitious beginners should look elsewhere.
