Nonoflare 800 Tour Conclusion and Recommendation by Professional Stringer and Coach

Yonex Nanoflare 800 Tour Badminton Racket Review Malaysia KL

Eric’s review: Actually, this badminton racket, when compared to the Yonex Nanoflare 800 PRO, is quite similar, to be honest. However, it is lighter, but the feel isn’t as good as the NF800PRO. Nonetheless, the repulsion, flexibility, and wide profile frame design are all about the same. In terms of hitting the shuttle and the repulsion, if you opt for professional stringing service, it’s also about the same.

The price of this racket is much cheaper than the Nanoflare 800 PRO, at around RM650 to RM800, and the Singapore price is about SGD 230. For me, I have to say that this racket is just for those times when my hand hurts after using my Li-Ning N903, which is an old, head-heavy racket.

With its innovative wide profile frame design and technologies, the Yonex Nanoflare 800 Tour provides an impressive combination of power, control, and stability. It excels at powerful baseline smashing while also offering great finesse at the net. We recommend it primarily for intermediate to advanced players seeking a blend of offense and control. Aggressive attacking players and doubles specialists will appreciate the excellent power and large sweet spot this racket provides. While it may be too stiff and heavy for ultra-competitive singles players, the Nanoflare 800 Tour is a top choice for club players looking to add power and stability to their game.
