Honestly I don't love any of the companies at the moment - Yonex seems better than the rest, though. I don't know who voted Wilson, but they're um....wrong. I love Wilson and always have, and I use Wilson personally, but their designs are not good. (Unless you get a custom pj)

Wilson is freaking ugly, the blade and clash are boring and the pro staff hasn’t changed since 2016. Ultra is nice because of the blue, but still boring design as clash and blade.

Why prince? It’s pretty much all gunmetal gray and black with some silver.

much cooler to me than all those poppin' colors screaming ''I'm a *********'' but to each his own ofc.
I really prefer Yonex' paint quality over wilsons, as my racquets don't look as beat up anymore since I made the switch. Other than that I got used to ignore the looks of my stick, gonna watch the ball most of the time anyways and we're not complaining about ugly balls neither aren't we?

I love the classic paintjobs of Prince racquets.
Monocolored on bicolor paintjobs are the best to me.

I think Babolat has the best all-around paint jobs, especially the pure strike. But I love the Wilson Pro Staff line the most.

I like the ezone more actually, maybe I’m a sucker for blue but the red is like the 360+ Prestige but no gloss, same for the black, just too bland.

The Ezone in itself is sexy af as well. But I think I’m the same that instead of blue, I’m a sucker for red.

Who the hell voted for Donnay
Yeah. For a special selection/customer order, I agree.

Surprisingly not that much actually. It’s heads best racquet, but that maroon doesn’t work with the red, and that orange writing is quite horrific.

I think it depends on the individual lines of the brands. I like the Tecnifibre TF 40 paint jobs but not so much the flash series. The Wilson RF 97 in the Laver Cup blue looks great but the clash is terrible. The Diadem Elevate is very nice as do the Head Gravity’s. Pro Kennex new black aces have a nice finish as well.
Volkl V 8 Pro glows in the twilight and I think that looks great.
Prince Phantoms look a little underwhelming,

Really close call. Don't really love any of them completely but for me Prince edges it out just slightly. Considering the last 5 years. Yonex second for general quality at least when new, Wilson third. Honorable mention to the durability of some of Dunlop's recent past glossy pjs.
I liked black matte with green accents mostly, and appreciated the mostly visible textreme and Twaron. The new Phantoms don't excite me. The purplish black of the P series don't photograph well. TW makes it look like the purple is quite visible and kinda gleaming. But in reality it's kinda like how the first VCP 97 was with the lighter blue accent. You also hardly ever see those topographical style wavy lines.
The purple hue is only visible when the racquet catches the light, 80% of the time it's basically a black racquet. ...Is that the 'phantom' aspect who knows.
