[How padell.io earns money](https://padell.io/how-we-earn-money/) The short answer The Bullpadel Pearl 2026 is a diamond-shaped racket with a 531 cm2 head, listed for Advanced players. It weighs 355 to 365 g and has a head-heavy 260 mm balance. On paper it gives medium power and low control. It suits attackers with clean technique. The sweet spot is small, so it is not for beginners. By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 9 October 2026 Choose it if - you play on the left like Bea González and want to finish points early with flat shots - you are an advanced player with clean technique and can live with a Low sweet spot meter - you like a head-heavy racket and accept that it asks for clean technique Skip it if - you want a diamond with more power, because the Kuikma Power Boost is listed with High power against Medium here - you want the newest Pearl, since the Pearl 2027 has a slightly larger head and a different surface - you are still learning the game and need a forgiving racket, as the Pearl has a Low sweet spot meter ## How it plays 7.3 **padell.io score 7.3** Play 6.7 (60%) and reviews 8.1 (40%). Based on 1 review source.

Two listed specs differ. The head grows from 531 to 535 cm2, and the surface changes from Rough to 3D Grain. Balance, shape, core, face, thickness, weight and level are the same. Frame and handle are not known for the 2027, so a difference there cannot be ruled out. A slightly larger head can mean a little more room for off-centre hits, but that is an expectation from the numbers, not a measured result. If you want the newest version, look at the 2027. If you find the 2026, the playing profile is very close. ## Price history Today **€ 179.95** Lowest in 30 days **€ 179.90** vs 30-day average **0%** Lowest price per day across the shops in your market. Checked every night. ## What reviewers say There is one review so far. padel.how played the racket and gives it 76 out of 100. Its summary is short. It calls the Pearl a reactive diamond with easy power, made for a proactive attacking game. The reviewer rates power as positive and comfort, control and sweet spot as neutral. The one stated weakness is limited forgiveness on high face contact. The review points to offensive players who like early pressure and flat finishes. Bullpadel itself claims 9.5 out of 10 for power and 8 out of 10 for control. The reviewer's neutral control and the Low control meter are more careful than that. The sources agree that the Pearl is an attacking racket. They differ on how much control it gives you. [**padel.how** 7.6 “The Pearl is a reactive easy-power diamond for a proactive attacking game.” Read the full review →](https://padel.how/equipment/racket/bullpadel-pearl-2026-review/) Bullpadel rates the Pearl 2026 at 9.5 out of 10 for power. It gives control 8 out of 10. That is a bold pair for a diamond with a 531 cm2 head. Those are the brand's own numbers. This page checks them against the specs and the one court test available. ## 9.5 for power, 8 for control: Bullpadel's own ratings against the meters The brand pitch is clear. Power in the smash, control in defence, and a racket made for expert players with an aggressive playing style, according to the product page. The page also says it keeps great maneuverability. All of that is a claim, not a measurement. The meters tell a calmer story. Power is Medium, control is Low, maneuverability is Low and the sweet spot is Low. Only comfort sits in the middle, also at Medium. So the brand's 8 out of 10 for control does not carry over to the spec sheet. Read the Pearl as an attacking diamond that needs a good hand, not as an all-rounder. ## Fibrix face, MultiEVA core: where Medium power comes from on a diamond A [diamond shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/) normally raises power, and here the meter agrees. The face pulls the other way. Fibrix is listed as a fiberglass-based face, and the meters treat that as lowering power. The frame is listed as 100% carbon. The core is MultiEVA, which Bullpadel describes as two layers of EVA with different densities. The surface is listed as Rough, which gives some grip on the ball for spin. Thickness is 38 mm. The result is a racket that gives you power without being stiff. You still have to swing. Not a racket that does the work for you, but one that responds when you do. ## 355 to 365 g at 260 mm: why handling reads Low despite the modest weight The [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) is 355 to 365 g. The balance is 260 mm, listed as high, so the head carries more of that weight. The product page says the racket stays very maneuverable. On paper the specs suggest something else. A head-heavy diamond swings with momentum, and that helps at the smash but is slower at the net. The meter reads Low for that reason. The weight system is listed as Custom Weight. How it works is not published here. The listed range of 355 to 365 g is what you can rely on. If your arm tires easily, the lower end of that range is the safer choice. ## 76 out of 100 from padel.how: easy power, little room for off-centre hits There is one review for this racket, and it gives 76 out of 100. The reviewer liked the accessible power and the efficient flat strokes. Net handling was called quick and reactive, which is a point where the reviewer and the maneuverability meter differ. The downside was forgiveness. The reviewer noted limited forgiveness when the ball hits high on the face. That fits the Low sweet spot meter. Control, comfort and sweet spot were all rated neutral. With one source, treat this as a first opinion. It does match the specs on the main point: the Pearl rewards a clean, flat hit. ## Pearl 2026 or Pearl 2027: 531 cm2 and a rough surface against 535 cm2 and 3D Grain The [Pearl 2027](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/pearl-2027/) is the successor. Two things changed in the listings: the head grows from 531 to 535 cm2, and the surface goes from Rough to 3D Grain. Shape, core, face, balance, thickness, weight and level are the same. Frame and handle are not known for the 2027. A [direct comparison](https://padell.io/compare/bullpadel-pearl-2027-vs-bullpadel-pearl-2026/) shows both side by side. The Pearl family Same year, from most power (left) to most control (right) **Pearl** ## Pearl 2026, Hack 05 Comfort 27 or Kuikma Power Boost: picking your diamond The [Hack 05 Comfort 27](https://padell.io/rackets/bullpadel/hack-05-comfort-27/) is also a Bullpadel diamond with MultiEVA and Fibrix. It is listed for Professional players and weighs 360 to 370 g, with High power on the meter. The [Kuikma Power Boost](https://padell.io/rackets/kuikma/power-boost/) is a fiberglass and EVA diamond at 360 g, also with High power. All three have a Low sweet spot. So if you want more power from a diamond, the other two look stronger on paper. If you want the Pearl's lower weight and the Advanced rating, this is the one.

Shape, core, face, balance and weight are the same. **Is the Pearl comfortable for your arm?** The comfort meter reads Medium. The MultiEVA core and fiberglass-based face are soft, and the brand says the Vibradrive handle absorbs vibrations. The one reviewer found comfort neutral. **Pearl 2026 or Hack 05 Comfort 27?** The Hack 05 Comfort 27 is a Professional-level diamond at 360 to 370 g with High power on the meter. The Pearl is lighter, listed for Advanced players, and sits at Medium power. **Is the Pearl 2026 worth the money right now?** Today's price is labelled "Pricey today" compared with the rackets that play most alike. Which shops deliver, and what shipping costs, depends on your country. The price comparison shows it for yours.

[Compare side by side →](https://padell.io/compare/bullpadel-pearl-2026-vs-kuikma-power-boost/) **Who should not buy it?** Skip it if you rely on placement and long rallies (control 4.0/10), or if you are still learning: it is not very forgiving (3.0/10). **How heavy is it really?** The brand gives 355 to 365 g. That counts as medium. Each racket can differ within that range. [Why a range? →](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/)
