Yonex Arcsaber 7 Pro Review vs Yonex Arcsaber 11 Pro - Which even balanced racket is better?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2022
- This is my review of the Yonex Arcsaber 7 Pro which is the latest generation of even balance badminton racket by Yonex. It is also Yonex's second Arcsaber release of 2022 after the Arcsaber 11 Pro earlier in March. I also compare both the Arcsaber 7 Pro and 11 Pro rackets in this video.
The Arcsaber 7 Pro transfers many of the design properties from the Arcsaber 11 Pro but there were 2 major differences in the racket frame. The Arcsaber 7 Pro is also classified as a medium stiff racket with incredible shuttle hold properties, in line with the rest of the modern Arcsaber families. Yonex also launched its latest badminton string, the Exbolt 65 alongside this Arcsaber 7 Pro.
Yonex will also be launching its budget friendly models of the Arcsaber 7 with the Arcsaber 7 Tour and Arcsaber 7 Play. I will be releasing a separate video looking at them very soon.

Want to review ON Thruster Ryuga II
The best and most trustworthy badminton equipment reviewer in the world, with greatest skill-related and technical precisions, yet to the point without any vague or non-measurable opinionated description. Wish you a miraculous recovery, that the badminton community may resume enjoying the benefits of your racquet and other equipment reviews.
Love the production quality on the videos. Really informative as well, and now I really wanna try this racket.
Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏼
Thank you for this timely and informative review! I'm thinking of having a new balance racquet and surely will put this ARC 7 Pro on my wish list.
👍🏼👍🏼✌️
Thanks for reviewing this!
You're welcome!
I've been waiting for this! Awesome review as always CK! Love from MY 💪
Hope you enjoyed it!
Love you videos ! Would love to see you do more collaboration with other badminton UA-camrs like Talia ng or others more. Very entertaining
I'm always open for collab ideas!
Hi ck...Great video, love the review... Hope to hear more from you 👍
😊😊
It would be interesting to see a comparison between arcsaber 11/7 pro and victor bravesword 12
Its gooo, the racket looks amazing, really love the matte finish
Matte rackets are always gooddddddd 😊
Thanks. After trying few rackets, I found I still like more flexible head light racket with 24-25 lb string of nanogy 98. I am an intermediate player. What racket in your mind which you would recommend? Thanks
Great as always....
And i believe you're trying Yonex comfort z 3..…. Hope to see it's detailed review soon
Coming soon 👍🏼
Any feedback abt comfort z 3?
oh my gosh stickers
Fingers crossed!
This is what I’ve been waiting for and I’ll be waiting for the victor thruster ryuga 2 review hehe
Not sure when we can get our hands on the Ryuga 2 😬😬 but i'll certainly review it when I can
@@CKYew it’s alright I’ll already subscribe and turn on the notifications, as soon as the bideo drop I’ll be watching it 💪🏼👍🏻
👍🏼
Thank You so much Bröther for this wonderful review
Glad you found it useful
How does the Arc 7 PRO compare to the OG ArcSaber 10? long time ARC 10 user and hoping they bring back the ARC 10 as a PRO model!
Finally got the 7pro with aerobite, it was a lot more fun to play with. Somehow the faster swing helps me to generate decent power. Love it, using 7pro and astrox ZZ, loving the 7pro more. Thank you for the review
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 niceeee
Nice review, I'm tempted and might give it a try soon.
I'm looking for my old and current love Armortec 800 Defensive (4UG5) replacement. Can you recommend similar racket within the current generation because Armortec spec and feature are a bit misleading.
I'd say the Astrox 88S and D Pro would be a good upgrade from the AT800D
Hi, love your vids. I currently main the Arc11pro 4U, but am thinking to get a Arc7pro 4U (just because Arc11pro is out of stock everywhere in the region I'm at). From your experience, would it be hard to switch between the racquets?
I originally had 3x Arc11pros, but unfortunately had two break. One from unlucky clash, and another i got used that came with a crack that propagated that I missed :( Now looking for a 2nd racquet since a tournament is coming up end of the month.
I'm a big fan of the original Jet speed 10 racquet, and am definitely an all-rounder player !
What would be the major differences between the 100x and the 11 pro?
Hello doctor, which string you think better for Arcsaber 7 pro between Exbolt 65 and BG80 Power?
Can you make a video for a comparison against the Astrox 99 Pro and the Arcsaber 11 Pro?
Love your content. By the way, Arcsaber is famous for its "hold" effect but amateurs like me can't actually feel or discern it. Can you make a separate video going through the hold effect? Maybe, comparing with other rackets...
You will notice it if you play with the arcsabers then with another type of racket strung with the same strings 👍🏼
@@CKYew what’s the best string for arcsaber 7 play?
Interesting that you felt like you got more power out of ArcSaber 7 than 11, unless I misunderstood. Since you’re used to 88D Pro, but the 7 felt faster so could get more speed?
Years ago i had a Arc Saber 100 wich was a special edition of the Arc Saber 7 for the 100th anniversary of the All England!!
Yep, it’s a repainted version 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi ck, arcsaber 7 pro or astrox 77 pro which to choose?
Hi ck, Can i ask what the Assist Bumper does on the Arcsaber 11 Pro? And which Yonex String do u recommend a Intermediate player use? And at what tensions?
This racket sparks my interest. Thanks for the review.
You're welcome!
One doubt! In smashing power, is arc 7pro is more powerful than muscle power series!?
Video idea : compare the 7pro (4U) to the bravesword12 (3U) and see what are the pros and cons of each.
helo ck, if you need to choose of the arcsaber 7 pro & astrox 77 pro? which one you wanna buy? what the difference about both racket?
Love the content. Since you have done a review on Auraspeed 100x + Arcsaber 7 Pro and commented on the ease of use for both racquets, which one is your preferred racquet?
the 100X is a repulsion racket, the 7 Pro is a hold racket. Both have different characteristics
@@CKYew which one would u choose to play in a doubles game?
@@misterNP 7 pro
@@luffy2203 what’s the best string for arcsaber 7 play and why?
Always giving the best review😊...
Can i req you to review Victor Thruster F enhanced edition? Thankyou
Yep, that’s coming soon
@@CKYew thankyouuuuuuuu veryyy muchhhh 😊🙏🏻
Any word on pricing and when it’ll be available?
Would be interested to see where this sits on the Yonex racket matrix, will it be a 4U G5 in the UK?
Good comparison as always!
Yep, it should be 4ug5 in the U.K. although not sure about time scales and price 😬😬
tempted to buy and try!
👌👌💪🏻
Could you please recommend between Yonex Arcscaber 7 pro vs Yonex nanoflare 1000 tour which one will be best and you would like to suggest for both offensive and defensive game?
Would love to see your review on the Lining Calibar 900i/900c and 900b!!
The Calibar 900 review are coming soon
CK thanks for the video! Now WC is comming!. Could you make a prediction video now the draw is out? Thanks!
Its soooo open!!! lots of amazing players can win it!
Probably too headlight for me from 88d pro (albeit I use the Arc 11 pro on my off days), I suppose I'll wait out for the AX77 pro. How does the Arc 7 pro compares to Aeronaut 9000D/Nanoflare 700 tho you reckon? Which one is faster? Which one would give a better drive?
I personally prefer the 7 Pro over the 9000D/NF 700
How to compare to Astrox 99 Pro 4U? I’m using now!
Hi CK , compared with nanoflare 555 , which is better in terms of speed , power , and so on. Thanks in advance 😃
I personally preferred the 11 Pro over the 555
Very Good Review. Thank You so much. I think Malaysian Women Superstar Pearly Tan is using both 7 pro and 11 pro?
Nope, she only use 7 pro, previously 88s pro
Is the “shuttle hold” feeling of the 7 pro and 11 pro similar to the “soft” feeling of rackets on the left side of the Yonex racket matrix? E.g. Astrox 66?
Yes, somewhat similar
Hello! love the content! can you do a review for Axforce 90 pleaseeee=)
I will do when they arrive
great review, and backhand smash too🤣
🤣🤣
At 9 :03 what did @CKYew mean by "We want higher shuttle speeds, not necessarily heavier failing shuttles" ?
Please compare arc 11 and 7 (play).
Bro I have attacking game, so which one should I buy??
How durable was the exbolt 65? I’m planning to get my first real racket which is the 11pro but I can’t choose from the bg80, bg65, nanogy 98, or the exbolt 65. I am a control rounded player, however I lack arm muscle for smashing power, and I also prefer to use a string that lasts very long as I am not financially capable of buying more strings after it breaks.
If your smashing power isn't that powerful, the exbolt 65 will last relatively long (I used it before came back to BG66 ultimax). But for me, exbolt 65 feels a bit hard (not for control) compared to the bg66 ultimax. So, I think BG66 ultimax will suits you well.
@@stevenl5712 bg 66um dont last long. Exbolt 65 is more durable and has more control.
Which is better for singles?
Awesome as always, thanks CK Yew. How you compare with auraspeed 100x?
100X is a repulsion racket. This is a hold racket so this feels slightly softer
@@CKYew Thanks man! I stick with my arc11pro then.
Rankireddy switched back to Duora Z Strike! Spotted it when seeing him play in the Commonwealth Games
Yes he did! I will certainly ask him about it the next time I see him
@@CKYew would be nice to know the reason behind this decision!
Hello CK, thanks for the awesome review and comparison. I am looking for a replacement racquet for my Victor MX60 4U which Victor had stop production for it. From spec wise the AS7 look really close to it. Would you recommend the AS7 or there are alternative closer to MX60 4u?
I used to play with the arcsaber 9 but i broke it and i'm considering switching to the arcsaber 11 pro but i am not sure i can handle it. Should i get the arcsaber 7 pro or the 11 pro
yonex arcsaber 11 pro vs 7 pro which one is better please comment me?
Hello sir, i’m using nf800 now. Is it worth to change to arc7pro? I’m more to attacking but my arm is not too strong.
Why not?
Definitely an excellent video
You're welcome! 😊
Hi CK, apa khabar? Was just wondering. How does it play compared to astrox 77 and/or 88s pro? I know 77 is head head heavy and 88s pro is stiff flex.
77 isnt very head heavy, only slightly. This 7 will be the head lightest out of the 3
are you gonna do a 7 play vs 11 play?
Brother, please help me choose between Yonex Arcsaber Light 71 and Li-ning Super Series 21. Which one should I go for?
No idea as i've not tried both 😂
Nice video @ck yew. Sounds interesting. I'm big fan of old arcsaber 7, definitely want to try this one
You should!
@@CKYew I usually play with 4U-head heavy-flexible or midflex racket. I'm not strong enough both physically or technically correct to use stiffer rackets. That's why liked the old arcsaber 7, it was flexible shaft' very forgiving and not tiring my arm after 2-3 hours. Do you think this new arcsaber 7 would replace that?
Hey CK Yew, would there be a video for the Astrox 77 Pro until the Play? Would like to know how close it is between the tiers for Astrox 77 😊
👌
Hi CK Yew, can you do a review of AXFORCE 90 max if you happen to have any?
Coming soon
Do you think yonex will launch new arcsaber model
this year 2024?
Thanks. Very details review. I’ve been watching your channel for while but this is the first time I comment.
How do you compare 11 pro and Astrox 88D pro, both 4U versions? I see 11 pro quite similar to 88D pro.
Thanks.
11 Pro is easier to play with 👌
@@CKYew thanks. I’m using 88D pro 4U and 1000z 3U. I don’t know why I feel like I can defend better with 88D pro. Do you think because 1000z stiffer ?
I’m looking for a racket for back up. Can you give me some advice?
Considering the 7 pro as my back up racket. Already playing the 11 pro for 3 months now and I absolutely love it.
Sounds amazing!
@@CKYew Bought the 7 pro with Exbolt 65 three days ago, just like the 11 pro, it was so easy to use and fun to play. I still use the 11, they’re almost identical I can’t feel the difference (aside from the the weight which is 4U) I use the 3U 11 pro. Netting is such a joy when using the 7 pro.
Great video. Would u recommend arc7 pro or arc11 pro for junior single players ? Age under 13.
Both would be great
Thanks. I watched a lot of your videos. Now I like to pick one all around good racket with easy swing. Which one you prefer among, arc 7 pro, 11 pro, axforce 80, 9000D or victor TK Claw Taizhiyin? Thanks
11 Pro 👌
@@CKYew Thank you so much. That makes it easy. I appreciate it.
Hi CK, compared with Astrox88Spro, which is better in terms of speed and power?
88S Pro
Hey CK is there by any chance I can get hold of the older Arcsaber 7 & Arcsaber 11????
You can always try your local badminton store or even online forums
how does this ARC 7 PRO compare to AURASPEED 100X? im deciding between the 2.. thank you :D
The 100X feels crisper, more instant repulsion whereas the 7 Pro 'holds' the shuttle on its strings.
i recently got an arcsaber 7 pro as a gift and it's basically the only racket i use now when i play
It’s good isn’t it!!
@@CKYew it just clicked with me, it’s so easy to use and is capable of so much
Is it better than Nanoflare 800? I never actually tried head-light racquets.
Its up to your personal preference. 👍
From my surveys from other reviewers and also to your reviews, many said that these two rackets are very hard to tame when it comes to finding the raw power of those rackets. I haven't yet decided wether I choose to buy the arcsaber 7 pro or arcsaber 11 pro or astrox 100zz or astrox nextage because of the prices like for example the astrox 100zz price here in the philippines is already cost more than $300 because of tax inflation
The nextage shouldn’t be the same price as the 100ZZ as they should be cheaper
Just get ZF2, Astrox 100zz or 99pro
Great review CK. Do you have the purchase link please?
not sure where you're based but they're not available in the UK yet. I will be posting links when they're available
Ck Yew, what do you think bout lining airforce 78 and windstorm 78 plus
I've not tried them both yet 😬
Timely review CK!
On a side note, would you recommend to get the current Astrox 88S pro now or would it be best that to wait until the newer version (assuming there is one coming out)? thanks.
If you need it, its always good to get it whilst they're still in stock 😬😬
I know a few players using 88D Pro who want to buy a 88S Pro. They find the 88D Pro has a powerful smash but when they are on the defensive their swing is too slow. They just need to be able to find a 88S Pro to purchase.
I recently purchased a Astrox 100 Game. I prefer medium flex. There is power but I prefer the Duora series rackets as I can run around the court much quicker (even balance vs head heavy). Of course, everyone has their preference. I used to use head heavy rackets.
new ones coming out in 2 days
Hi Ck 😊 wanna ask if what version is best use for 7 pro? 3u or 4u version? Or lighter 😅 Thank you
The 7 Pro only comes in 4U I believe. If you want a 3u, you’ll have to get the 11 Pro
@@CKYew thank you 😇😇😇
Hey ck , which one do you prefer the arc 7 or astrox 88s pro?
I prefer my 88D Pros 🤣🤣
Would you have any idea when it will be available in the UK?
Hopefully by september. Remember to use my code 'CKYEW' if you're shopping at YC Sports or Central Sports for more discounts 👍
Hello, could you please also mention the difference between the same rackets but play version? Is this comparison also valid for 11 play vs 7 play?
i give my best to help you out since i have the 7 play and 11 play....
in short the 7 play are the most userfriendly and light head, its very suitable for beginners = but the downside is no power for intermediate/advanced player.
on the other side , the 11 play for me was the best... still got the agile and precise feelings like the 7 , but it got more power because its more head heavy. so its a perfect choice for me who plays all around in court.
@@Kevin.yuwono Hello! Thank you for your reply! I already bought 11 play and restringed it with bg-65 ~26 lbs tension.
For me, feels a bit different comparing to any other racket, but I play well with it. In my childhood when I played in the badminton school, I had Ti-5 (if you remember this series), it was headlight. This one is kinda different to any other kind of racket I tried, you don't have some clear weight position. Feels nice to me, but I think, I had to play about a week with it to understand it's performance.
Also, I'd say that 11 play is quite stiff. So without restringing you will not feel how it actually works under the pressure. After restringing, I felt how it bends when smashed.
Overall, I'd say it is a good racket, but it will not play instead of you :). 99% skill and 1% racket. I'd say string tension means more than the racket xD. A racket should be better than mass-market, this is enough to win any game. I'd say, it is good when you like how the racket looks and how it feels personally to you. The good racket -- the one which you WANT to take and play with it. When you play, you learn. After you learn, you win :)
Hi CK, Arcsaber 7 Pro vs Nanoflare 800. Which one do you think its easier to manoeuvre?
the 800 will be faster but the 7 Pro will be more stable
Thanks CK for this video, i just bought Arc 7 Pro and I’m absolutely loving it! :)
Thanks CK for this video, i just bought Arc 7 Pro and I’m absolutely loving it! :)
Will you review the arcsaber JP version to other region? since they have 30 to 35% difference in price
JP codes are no different to other codes 👌
Is the Yonex 65Z 3 better than the yonex comfort Z2?
Its down to your personal preference. There is an updated Comfort Z3 model too
would love a pro vs tour vs play of the arcsaber 7!!!
That's coming soon
Will you do a review on the new Yonex Comfort Z3 shoes?
Absolutely
Does it feel like bravesword 12? Even balance and medium stiff shaft...
on paper yes but the feel is very different
I got both racquets. 11pro 3u (replaced my 4u 100zz) and 7pro 4u. Both are great racquets. The 7pro is definitely a bit head light so rear court play is a bit hard unless you got a strong arm and good technique. 11pro definitely a better all round play. Both racquets are great for control play, drop shots, net plays, drives. Happy to answer any questions :)
Which is better? Arc 11 vs arc 11pro?
@@rysrys2977 i don't have the original 11 and haven't used it in a long time. Can't comment which is better

@@rongfran8971 4u is probably better for front court and control play (slightly faster and easier to handle). I play front and back and find the 3u perfect all rounder. It all depends on the user capabilities, not the racquet!

Hii CK love from philippines, my friend is planning to buy a yonex racket, his a fast reaction, and good agility, he said he wants a 28+lbs string tension which racket would u recommend for him
Any of the top end Yonex frames would fit lol! Its down to what he/she prefers
If you get the AS7 pro/tour, is it worth also getting a NF700 or NF800? looking to try a few racquets that's not too head heavy
I normally advise getting the same rackets for consistency but I thoroughly promote the NF800!!
@@CKYew that makes sense! I'm a sucker for trying new things 😂
But also want to move away from head heavy as I am getting older 😂 so need a slow transition period
You and me both!! 😂😂
@@CKYew so I picked one up on marketplace since the price was reasonable. Whilst the forehand smash isn't strong like the 100zz, I find my backhand smash/whip is much stronger. Clearly I'm too weak when using a heavier racquet but I am definitely enjoying a head lighter racquet. Similarly enjoying the TKF. Selling off my 100zz to get another tkfe/as7p. I am a bit worried about the NF800 still with many people reporting how fragile it is :(
Niceeeeee
I am agreed which 7 pro feel soft and light but use bg80 string make it perfect when u smash to opponent and good in slice..love this 7 pro than my 100zz haha
Just broke my 88d game @30lbs i want to know your opinion I'm a aggressive player locking for power game I know 88d game is also good in mid range but I'm thinking which would've better astrox 100 game vs 88d game just need your opinion
The 100 game might have just that bit more power as its slightly head heavier
hey ck i am planning to purchase a new racket under 8000 rupees, i am confused between the Arcsaber tour 3300 and the Astrox tour 9500,can you help me out? btw if you have got any other suggestions under 8000 rupees can you plz tell me
thanks in advance
I think a lot of the PLAY rackets are very good and they're certainly well below 8000 rupees 👍
@@CKYew could you kindly suggest one?
How does the 11 Pro & 7 Pro compare to the Duora series? Is it only worth it when looking for a 4U even balance racket?
no right or wrong answer here but you'll just have to try it for yourself!
@@CKYew I bought Arcsaber 7 Pro (Exbolt 65) - 1st time. Astrox 100 Game & Duora 7 (all medium flex) definitely more powerful smash. 100 Game is slower than 7 Pro & Duora 7 because head heavy. Harder to play a fast paced doubles game unless tactic is to overpower opponent which can lead to arm injury. 7 Pro is great for drives & delaying net shots & lifts. Like it so much got a 7 Play to play when having to play with those players who swing (backhand/forehand) at everything down the middle. Most likely will string with BG80, Gosen, or Ashway. It will be interesting to see if shots will be as accurate as 7 Pro.
Sounds like you had a good time!! 👍🏼👍🏼
@@CKYew I'll have to see the price difference between Aerobite & Exbolt to choose strings.
Astrox 99 whitetiger game vs arcsaber 7 play...which one is the best? for hard and powerfull smashing
Ax99
Is it 7 pro can added control assist bumper like 11 pro ?
I've not tried it before 😬😬
Compare to NF800, which one feel lighter or head lighter?
NF800 is head lighter and faster
Exbolt 65 vs bg66 um which is better at power ?? And which one is more forgiving
I'd say exbolt 65 more power, but ultimax more forgiving
Is Arcsaber 7 pro paired well with Li-Ning no 1 string?
Why not??
