StarVie Black Titan (2026)

Editorial assessment · 2026 model

The Black Titan is for players who already know they like a substantial racket with high balance. Its hybrid head uses a 24K Carbon Master face and hard H-EVA Power core. StarVie lists 368 g ±8 g, so this is a racket to choose for its feel and balance, not for low weight.

Best for
Advanced players who prefer high balance, a hard core and a substantial racket for attacking play.
Main trade-off
The firm construction and high balance suit a deliberate preference for that setup, but make it a poor default recommendation for a new player.

Our assessment

What to try before buying

Test how easily you can prepare the racket for a quick volley and recover after an overhead. High balance and a 368 g nominal weight make those useful checks before choosing it for attacking play.

One owner comparing Black Titan with the SIUX Electra ST4 described the StarVie as less dry in feel, despite its hard-core specification. That is one player's comparison, not a consensus. It is a useful reminder that a hardness label does not tell you exactly how the complete racket will feel.

Consider an alternative if: Your current racket already feels slow to position, or you want a softer, lighter option.

Strengths

  • Dynamic Star provides a way to adjust the balance.
  • The hard core and textured face give players seeking that construction a clear option.

Drawbacks

  • The published range reaches 376 g before any accessories you add.
  • Buyers need to check which Dynamic Star accessories come with their particular offer.

FAQ

Is the Black Titan 2026 lightweight?
No. Its nominal weight is 368 g, with a published 360–376 g range, and it has high balance. It makes more sense for someone comfortable with a substantial racket than for someone trying to reduce weight.
What does Dynamic Star change?
It lets you alter the racket's balance using an interchangeable star in the throat. The change is for adjusting the setup to your preference; it does not turn Black Titan into a lightweight racket. Check which star and any spare weights are included in the offer you buy.
