What players say

Reviewers agree the 2025 SX 300 is Dunlop's spin machine: the enlarged Spin Boost XT grommets and open 16x19 pattern make heavy topspin very easy to produce, and the reworked hoop adds stability versus the previous version. The tradeoffs are a firm, somewhat muted feel and a high launch angle that can hurt depth control and touch shots.

Best for

  • Aggressive baseliners who brush up on the ball
  • Players wanting easy topspin and depth
  • All-court players who want a stable, forgiving frame
  • Pure Aero style swingers looking for an alternative

Pros

  • Very easy, heavy topspin generation from the open string pattern and wider grommets
  • Accessible power with good depth on groundstrokes
  • Maneuverable and stable for a 100 sq in spin frame
  • Improved lateral stability at 3 and 9 o'clock versus the prior SX 300
  • Spin also helps second serves and kick serves land safely

Cons

  • Firm, muted feel at the throat that isn't ideal for touch or feel players
  • High launch angle can cause overhitting and inconsistent depth control
  • Harder to flatten out put-away shots or drive low passing shots
  • Slices can float when aimed at ambitious targets

The SX 300 was a really easy racquet to swing from the baseline. I was able to generate a lot of spin thanks to its open string pattern.

Easy spin and power were still the main features. The string spacing is quite open, which led to a pretty high launch angle.

— Tiffani, Tennis Warehouse playtester, Web

The SX 300 lives up to its name, and spin was the highlight of the playtest for me.

— Brittany, Tennis Warehouse playtester, Web

This was a great hitting experience, and I thought the racquet was easy to pick up and play with.

Thank you, says my topspin forehand and kick serve.
