Rank #6 in Best Tennis Rackets 2026: 9 Ranked, and Why the 'Pair' Count Misleads
AboveGenius Neon Tennis Racket Set of 2
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
This is the AboveGenius Neon Tennis Rackets 2 Pack — a £39.99 aluminium set aimed at adult beginners, sitting at number six in this guide. It is the entry in the list where the 'pair' claim and the small print actually agree: the Included Components field names 2 sturdy tennis rackets, 3 premium tennis balls, 2 handle overgrips and 1 carry bag, and the bullets repeat the same counts. Nothing is hidden behind the word 'set'.
The loose number here is weight, and it is loose within a single bullet. One bullet is headed 'Feather-Light Agility (9.2 OZ)' and then, in the same sentence, describes the frame as 'approx. 280g'. 9.2 oz is about 261 g, so the two figures printed side by side do not match each other. The Item Weight field goes further still and lists 907 g, which is roughly what two 280 g rackets plus three balls and a bag would weigh together. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it is written, not from any testing we carried out.
How those 109 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.6 stars.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“This tennis racket set is a great option for beginners. My daughters are starting tennis this year, and this set has been a really good value for us. The rackets feel like nice quality for new players, and the weight is very manageable for teenagers. Their coach hasn't had any complaints either, which is always a good sign.I also love that you get two rackets, tennis balls, a carrying case, and additional accessories all in one set. It made getting started much easier without having to hunt down everything separately. Overall, a great beginner set at a very reasonable value.”
Verified purchase“Great colours and kids love them as well as adults cheap and can tell not the quality of something professional but great to have to play with the kids bought two packs!”
