What is the comparison between the Head Graphene 360+ Gravity Tour and the Head Graphene 360+ Prestige MP?
Their specs are very similar, with the Tour being slightly lighter, but with a slightly more head heavy balance that pretty much equalizes their swing weights.
Both are 18x20.
Their biggest difference seems to be 98 sq in vs 100 sq in.
If head size is the main difference factor, can you please explain how this affects power, playability, and feel and what to expect out of each frame?
 
Have you tried these??? I am also having exactly same question. And what about prestige tour vs gravity tour, they both just differ in head size by 1sq inch and only 1 string in string pattern

Carbon layup is most likely vastly different enough such that a blind playtest would yield differing opinions about the pros and cons of each model. But, that said, I have no direct experience with either, just speculating.

Both have pretty "classic" Head feel/response, great control and touch.

Gravity has larger head size and different head shape (tear drop). The beam is also 2mm thicker, so more power.

Gravity without some customization is probably more of a baseliners racquet, given the balance.
Prestige is probably more of an all-court players racquet allowing some attacking and volleying.
Guess it depends your style and application.
Gravity will be easier to use, regardless, but Prestige will give you more control
Both terrific racquets

But according to cpi index of head, prestige tour is more powerful..... These frames are just confusing
:-D

I actually demo’d both these racquets multiple times and while the specs are very similar I found they played very different- at least for my game.

I hit both of them in practice setting and match play and had a clear distinction between the two - I really liked the Speed Pro much more than the Gravity Tour. The Speed just felt much better to me and I hit the ball cleaner all around: ground stokes, volley, overheads, serve.

Not quite sure why. Perhaps headshape?

Another validation on how important it is to demo racquets to see what feels good to your individual game.
