Dunlop FX 500 LS 2025 · Updated Mar 21, 2026
The Dunlop FX 500 LS 2026 is a lightweight frame in Dunlop's FX line, replacing the FX 500 LS 2023. Playtesters described the power output as strong and accessible, with the frame generating good depth on full swings without requiring extra effort from the player. Comfort received positive marks, with the arm-friendly response at contact attributed to Sonic Core technology by one reviewer. The frame was characterized as predictable and easy to dial in, with reviewers observing that flatter ball-striking produced better results than heavy topspin. Low weight enabled fast swing speeds, and playtesters found it among the easier lightweight frames to maneuver.

Supporting quotes from YouTube reviews come from auto-generated caption transcripts, which often misspell brand names, technology terms, and tennis jargon. We clean these to better reflect what the reviewer actually said, so a quoted passage may intentionally differ from the raw captions. The corrections are best-effort, not guaranteed word-perfect, but make the quotes substantially more accurate on the whole. Quotes from written reviews are used as published.
