[How padell.io earns money](https://padell.io/how-we-earn-money/) The short answer The Nox AT10 Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite is a teardrop carbon racket of 355 to 365 g, lighter than the standard AT10 Genius 12K. On paper it is still hard and powerful, with low comfort and a small sweet spot. It suits strong, accurate players. No review has been found yet, and the balance in millimetres is not published. By [Ruud Caris](https://padell.io/about/) · facts checked 9 October 2026 Choose it if - you want Tapia's power-oriented AT10 shape but find the 360 to 375 g standard version too heavy - you prefer a powerful, precise game and make clean contact most of the time - you like to tune a racket yourself and want one with a weight system built in Skip it if - your elbow or shoulder complains easily, because the specs point to a hard, low-comfort racket and the Nox AT10 Genius Ultralight 26 is far softer - you often hit off-centre and need forgiveness, since the sweet spot meter reads Low - you need court-test proof first, as no review of this racket has been found yet ## How it plays 7.6 **padell.io score 7.6** Play 8.2 (60%) and reviews 6.6 (40%). No independent reviews found yet, so that part starts low. [How the score works](https://padell.io/how-we-score/) - **Control**: 7.0 around average● - **Power**: 8.0 above average▲ - **Comfort**: 2.5 below average▼ - **Handling**: 5.5 above average▲ - **Forgiveness**: 5.0 around average● - **Line = the average of all rackets**: ▲ above ▼ below On paper this is a hard-hitting teardrop that rewards clean contact. - **Control** Medium, helped by the stiff carbon face, the teardrop shape and the medium balance label. The stiff face also makes the racket firmer and less forgiving to touch. - **Power** High, because the hard core, the stiff carbon face and the teardrop shape all push in that direction. - **Comfort** Low, since both the hard HR3 core and the stiff face lower it, so expect vibration on mishits. - **Handling** Medium, with the medium balance label as the only listed driver. - **Forgiveness** Low, because the hard core shrinks the forgiving zone and the teardrop shape only partly offsets that. ## Specifications - **Launched**: 2026 Newer version from 2027 - **Shape**: Teardrop [Between control and power](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/) - **Weight**: 355 to 365 g Average: not tiring, stable enough - **Balance**: Even according to the brand Even: quick at the net, enough in the smash - **Face**: Carbon 12K Alum Xtrem Stiff: precise and powerful at speed, less damping - **Core**: HR3 White EVA Hard: control and power at speed, more vibration - **Thickness**: 38 mm The maximum the rules allow - **Surface**: Dual Spin Rough: helps with spin - **Frame**: Carbon Not published by the brand: head size, handle Specs from the brand's own site · checked 26 September 2026 · [Spotted a wrong spec?

The listing was matched automatically and is probably a different model. Do not read it as an update of this racket. The changed level label and weights prove nothing about the racket itself. The Luxury listing from the same year has the same weights, core and face, with the label Any level. For this racket, rely on the 2026 specs on this page. ## Price history Today **€ 196.65** Lowest in 30 days **€ 196.65** vs 30-day average **-5%** Lowest price per day across the shops in your market. Checked every night. The [Nox AT10 Genius 12K Alum XTREM](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-12k-alum-xtrem-2026/) Lite weighs 355 to 365 g. The standard [AT10 Genius 12K](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-12k/) is listed at 360 to 375 g. So this is the lighter version, yet the specs still describe a hard, powerful racket that [Nox](https://padell.io/brands/nox/) labels Professional. No court test sits behind this page. What follows is a careful reading of the specs. ## Lighter than the standard AT10 Genius 12K The two rackets share the 12K Alum Xtrem carbon face, the [teardrop shape](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-shapes/), the 38 mm thickness and the medium balance label. They differ in weight and core. The standard version uses HR3 Black EVA. This one uses HR3 White EVA. The meters show one change: maneuverability reads Medium here and Low on the standard version. Power, comfort and sweet spot read the same on both. The labels differ too. Nox calls this racket Professional. A listing called Nox AT10 Luxury Genius 12K Alum Xtrem LITE 2026 carries the same weights, core and face, but is labelled Any level. The [Luxury listing](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-luxury-genius-12k-alum-xtrem-lite-2026/) has identical meters as well. Level labels from brands are loose. Judge by the meters instead: Low comfort and a Low sweet spot do not describe a beginner's racket, whatever the label says. The AT10 family Same year, from most power (left) to most control (right) [**Genius Attack 12K Alum XTREM by Agustín Tapia**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-attack-12k-alum-xtrem-2026-by-agustin-tapia/) [**Genius Attack 18K Alum**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-attack-18k-alum-2026/) [**Genius 12K Alum XTREM**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-12k-alum-xtrem-2026/) [**Genius 18K Alum**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-genius-18k-alum-2026/) [**Luxury Genius 18K Alum**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-luxury-genius-18k-alum-2026/) **Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite by Agustín Tapia** [**Luxury Genius 12K Alum Xtrem LITE**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-luxury-genius-12k-alum-xtrem-lite-2026/) [**Pro Cup Hard**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-pro-cup-hard/) [**Pro Cup Soft by Agustín Tapia**](https://padell.io/rackets/nox/at10-pro-cup-soft-by-agustin-tapia/) ## White core, claimed soft The product page says the white HR3 core gives a strong sense of control and a soft feel. That is the brand's claim. The meters tell a different story. The core is classed as hard, and together with the stiff carbon face it pulls comfort down to Low. So do not read "white" as "soft". On paper this racket is stiff. If your arm is sensitive, the lower weight does not fix that. Lower weight reduces the load on your shoulder, but the vibration on a mishit still comes from the hard materials. Play it only if your arm tolerates firm rackets. ## Nox's ratings against the meters A retailer lists the brand's own ratings as 9.5 out of 10 for power and 9.5 out of 10 for control. The power claim fits the meters, which read High. The control claim is more generous than the meters, which read Medium, with a Low sweet spot. These two readings can both hold. A brand rating may describe precision on clean hits, while a small sweet spot punishes you when you miss the centre. That suits a player with reliable technique. It is hard work for someone still learning to find the centre. ## What the Weight Balance system could change The racket carries a system called Weight Balance. The product page describes it as interchangeable counterweights that let you adjust weight and balance to your preference. Nox does not say how the [weight range](https://padell.io/guides/padel-racket-weight-range/) of 355 to 365 g relates to the pieces. Whether the listed weight includes them is not stated. What can you do with that? If the claim holds, you can nudge the racket slightly towards the head for more drive, or away from it for more speed in the hand. Treat it as a fine-tuning option, not a way to turn this into a different racket. The hard core and stiff face stay as they are. ## What the specs cannot tell you Three things are missing. No review has been found for this racket. The balance in millimetres is not published, so "Medium" is only a label from a retailer. Head size and handle details are not published either. That leaves open how head-heavy it really feels and how large the usable hitting area is. If you can, try one before buying. A medium label can hide a lot of difference between two rackets. ## Against two Drop Shot rackets The [Drop Shot Conqueror Attack 1.0](https://padell.io/rackets/drop-shot/conqueror-attack-1-0/) is also a medium-balance teardrop. It uses a 24K carbon face, is labelled Advanced and weighs 350 to 370 g. Its meters match this racket exactly. See the [Conqueror Attack 1.0](https://padell.io/rackets/drop-shot/conqueror-attack-1-0/). The [Drop Shot Axion Attack 1.0](https://padell.io/rackets/drop-shot/axion-attack-1-0/) weighs 360 to 370 g and has the same High power and Low comfort. Its maneuverability reads Low against Medium here. If you want the quicker hand speed, this Nox has the edge on paper. Details on the [Axion Attack 1.0](https://padell.io/rackets/drop-shot/axion-attack-1-0/). All three suit a player who attacks. None suits a player who wants comfort first.

The standard one is listed at 360 to 375 g with a black HR3 core. The Lite's maneuverability reads Medium, the standard one's Low. **Is it comfortable for a sensitive arm?** On paper, no. The hard core and stiff carbon face give a Low comfort meter. The product page claims a soft feel, but the specs do not support that. The Nox AT10 Genius Ultralight 26 has a High comfort meter. **Is it suitable for intermediate players?** Nox labels it Professional, and the Low sweet spot asks for accurate contact. A strong intermediate with good technique can handle it. If you often miss the centre, a more forgiving racket is a safer choice. **Is the balance published in millimetres?** No. A retailer lists the balance as Medium, but the figure in millimetres is not published. Head size and handle details are also missing. **Is the AT10 Genius 12K Alum XTREM Lite 2026 by Agustín Tapia worth the money right now?** Today's price is labelled "Fair price" 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. See all prices **What is the closest alternative?** The Drop Shot Conqueror Attack 1.0 plays most alike. On paper the differences are under one point. [Compare side by side →](https://padell.io/compare/nox-at10-genius-12k-alum-xtrem-lite-2026-by-agustin-tapia-vs-drop-shot-conqueror-attack-1-0/) **Who should not buy it?** Skip it if your elbow or shoulder complains (comfort 2.5/10), or if you are still learning: it is not very forgiving (5.0/10). **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/)
