At 350 to 360 grams the Lite version is the handiest of the Genius range and, for 2027, around five grams lighter again. The face of aluminised 12K Xtrem carbon stays stiff, while the HR3 White EVA core provides, according to Nox, a soft feel and plenty of control. The newly shaped frame is meant to improve manoeuvrability, and the VCS anti-vibration system takes 60% more vibration off the arm than on the predecessor, according to the manufacturer. Weight and balance can be adjusted via Weight Balance.
At 355 g, it is lighter than three quarters of all models in our comparison: quick to handle and easy on the arm, but more of the power in attack has to come from your own swing. Head shape Teardrop means: the sweet spot sits a little higher – more punch in attack than a round racket, more forgiving than a diamond; plus the medium balance as the all-round standard. The soft core takes the sting out of the ball and is the gentler choice for sensitive arms. With power 7 and control 7 out of 10, it is evenly geared towards power and precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 6.2 out of 10, it is more forgiving than 62% of the teardrop-shaped rackets in our comparison. Of the 5 versions of the Nox Genius in our comparison, this is the lightest (355 g) and also the cheapest (€269.90). 8 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €269.90 to €350 – a €80 difference for the same model.
