The X-Feel Origin Essential is the entry racket in Babolat's X-Feel line, designed for the player who plays singles and doubles and wants a versatile tool. It weighs between 80 and 84 g (4U), has neutral balance, a medium-flex shaft and 675 mm. The frame uses Carbon Xtrem technology and the shaft is thermofused graphite, a combination that gives good response without requiring a very fast swing. It comes with Babolat iFeel 70 string and G4 grip. It is a balanced racket for club players who want to switch to a European brand.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%59
Approval from players35%68

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
