Teardrop2025Ranked #2 in Best of 2025
Controlled and manoeuvrable with a gentle effect on the arm; not a power racket for some.
A score out of 100 for how well reviewed a product is next to others of its kind. It rises with positive reviews and with how many there are; negative and mixed reviews take points off. The best in each category scores in the 90s.
So a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product lots of people like. No sponsored placements.

MixedTrying the Nox AT10 Genius 12K 2025, this player liked it a lot in defence but found its balance penalised their attack, with the ball floating.
Players praise it for control, manoeuvrability and a gentle effect on the arm, a little more direct than the 18K. It is not a power racket for some, and a few find it dry, stiff or demanding. A few report cracks or chipping paint.
Of the 67 reviews with a clear verdict, 60% are positive, 22% mixed and 18% negative. The praise mentioned most is good control. The most common complaint is demanding.
The complaints reviewers mention most: demanding (4 reviews), durability issues (4 reviews) and small sweet spot (2 reviews). For example: After trying the AT10 12K 2025 they didn't like it: comfortable from the back but heavy in the hand, feels like the classic Nox rubber despite the black EVA, and needs a lot of push to get speed overhead.
