PositiveUnperforated center on the 15K carbon face gives the update a wider sweet spot and a crisp, dry feel on clean contact. At 361g with a 26.5cm balance, it's noticeably easier to defend with than the old ST3 and gives you more bounce on lobs and three-point smashes. The heavy sandy grit also bites great when you're slicing volleys at medium pace. That extra rebound comes with a catch, though, when the rally speeds up. If you don't get set early and pull the tip down on fast víboras or aggressive volleys, the ball can easily float into the back glass.

PositivePreferred it to the AT10 12K 2025 in every area: lighter, bigger sweet spot, great volleys and overheads.

PositiveUsed the ST4 until it cracked: versatile with a good mix of control and power and a decent sweet spot; the trampoline effect gives free power but takes a little from control.

PositiveTesting the Siux ST4 Pro against the Babolat Counter Viper 2025, they find the ST4 more helpful: plenty of power, an easier x3, a huge sweet spot, comfortable all match and better lobs.

PositivePaint chips easily, but it's structurally solid; their smash improved with it compared with the Diablo 3.

PositiveThe ST4 is so responsive they almost hold back their swing; better for intermediates than the ST5.

PositiveThey switched from a Head Speed Pro X to the Electra ST4 Pro and say its power output is plenty for them.
Players like it for easy power, control and light, manoeuvrable handling at a good price. Feel divides opinion, with some finding it dry and stiff and others too bouncy. Several report paint chips or cracks, and a few find the sweet spot small.
