[How padell.io earns money](https://padell.io/how-we-earn-money/) The short answer The retailer listing gives the Galaxy LTD an Advanced level. The parts read like a forgiving racket: EVA soft rubber core, fiberglass face, round shape, medium balance. It weighs 360 to 375 g and is 38 mm thick. On paper that means control and comfort over power. No court test exists yet, and head size is not published. By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 26 October 2026 Choose it if - you want a round, soft racket that forgives off-centre hits - you rely on placement and patience more than on smashes - you want a racket that is easy on the arm and you accept some weight Skip it if - you want a light, quick racket for fast hands at the net - you need a power-oriented racket for finishing points, such as a head-heavy or diamond-shaped one, and not the round, soft Galaxy LTD - you want published head size and balance in mm before you decide, which the adidas RX Series Red 3.3 gives at 265 mm ## How it plays 7.7 **padell.io score 7.7** Play 8.4 (60%) and reviews 6.6 (40%).

Checked every night. The retailer lists the Galaxy LTD as a racket for advanced players, yet its listed parts read like a forgiving one: soft rubber core, fiberglass face, round head. That mismatch is the main thing to understand before you buy. ## Advanced on the label, soft in the parts: which one to trust The retailer listing gives the level as Advanced. The product page says the racket is meant for players who play often and want to develop a versatile style. Those are labels and claims, not measurements. The parts tell a different story. A soft core, a fiberglass face and a [round shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/) usually make a racket easy to hit with, not hard. So which do you trust? Trust the parts for how it will behave. Treat the level as a loose hint. An experienced player can enjoy a soft racket. Neither label settles it. ## Fiberglass over soft rubber: why control and comfort read High and power reads Low The core is EVA soft rubber. The face is fiberglass. The frame is high-strength graphite, according to the listing. The soft core raises control, comfort and sweet spot on the meters above. It also lowers power. Fiberglass lowers power as well, but raises comfort. The round shape raises control and sweet spot, and lowers power. What you notice on court, on paper: the ball leaves the face with less snap. You have to swing through it. In return, mishits should be less punishing and the arm should take less shock. ## 360 to 375 g with a medium balance: the weight that decides the handling The listed [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) is 360 to 375 g. That is heavy. The balance is labelled Medium, and the balance in mm is not published. The Medium balance label is listed as raising maneuverability, and so is the round shape. The weight pulls the other way and outweighs them, which is why maneuverability reads Low. Not a light racket for fast reflex volleys. More a steady one for players who are happy to swing with a full arm. If your wrist tires late in a match, this range is worth testing. If it tires early, look at something lighter. ## Galaxy LTD next to the adidas Drive 2026 and Rx Series 2026: one profile, two level labels The [adidas Drive 2026](https://padell.io/rackets/adidas/drive-2026/) is round, 38 mm thick, 360 to 375 g, with an EVA Soft Performance core and fiberglass face. Its meters match the Galaxy LTD: High control, High comfort, High sweet spot, Low power, Low maneuverability. It is labelled Beginner. The [adidas Rx Series](https://padell.io/rackets/adidas/rx-series/) 2026 has the same meters and is labelled Advanced. The [adidas](https://padell.io/brands/adidas/) balance is Even, where the Dunlop is Medium. So one profile carries both a Beginner and an Advanced label. That tells you how little the sheet separates these rackets. If you want to see the Galaxy LTD next to a sibling-style profile, the [adidas RX Series Red](https://padell.io/rackets/adidas/rx-series-red/) is another round, soft, 360 to 375 g option. ## Rough surface, hexagon texture and a heart with three holes: what the page claims The surface is listed as rough. The product page says the faces have a textured hexagon finish. It also claims a heart-shaped area with three holes with oblique edges, meant to filter airflow. Those are marketing claims and nothing here measures them. The page also says the medium balance and very large contact point favour powerful and precise shots. The specs suggest precision more clearly than power. ## Not published: head size, balance in mm, weight system and any court test Head size in cm² is not published. Balance in mm is not published. The weight system is not published either. No independent reviews exist yet, and no one has played it for this page. That leaves gaps. The large contact point is a claim, not a figure. Treat everything above as a reading of the specs, and try the racket before you commit if you can.
