Quanta R3.16

A Quanta R3 owner loves its juicy sweet spot feel without too much dwell, and found adding weight at the sweet spot gave a bit more power.

“Either way, i love the juicy sweet spot feel. Its not too dwelly.”

After 3.5 weeks of heavy play, a player says the Quanta R3 hit rockets in week one but its power then dropped significantly, which another club player noticed too.

“The first week I played with it, I was hitting absolute rockets. After that initial week I feel like the power has decreased significantly.”

After three weeks of 3–4 sessions a week, a moderately aggressive player has noticed no drop in power from the Quanta R3.

“I’ve had my R3 Quanta for about 3 weeks. I play 3-4 times per week/3-4 hrs per session. I haven’t noticed any difference in power”

Moving from a hybrid J2K+ to the weighted Quanta R3, a tennis convert found it natural from the baseline so they could swing out fully, with a big boost to their one-handed backhand and serve control.

“Overall- what a great stick. Exactly what I was looking for and glad I didn't chicken out with another Honolulu hybrid.”

After two hours with a weighted Quanta R3, a former Joola Agassi player finds it definitely poppy in a good way.

“I'm coming from a Joola Agassi paddle and it definitely poppy but in a good way.”

With a 15g setup on the Quanta R3, a player likes it more with every session: easy power when needed and easy to adjust touch, though dinking needs soft hands.

“The more I play with it the more I like it. Easy power when needed but also finding it easy to adjust the touch as well.”

After moving weights slightly above 3 and 9, a player is loving the Quanta R3 much more, with faster hands and a great-feeling sweet spot.

“Moved the weights to slightly above 3 & 9 and I am already loving it a ton more for my play style.”

After two weeks, a former CRBN 1X player found the stock Quanta R3 light with massive pop that hurt their drops; with 15g added, drives and pocketing improved.

“it took time getting used to the massive pop compared to what I'm used to, which affected how well I drop.”

A player with a weighted Quanta R3 says it is working great, can't believe the price, and has left their Joola Pro IV in the bag.

“Working great for me. Can't believe this paddle costs what it does. My Pro IV has been staying in my bag.”

A player calls the Quanta R3 amazing for the price: unstable stock, but once weighted it was stable with good pop, huge power and good control at the kitchen.

“This is an amazing paddle for the price. The transition from propylene core to foam felt normal. The paddle at stock lack stability from baseline shots and volleys.”

A player who bought the Quanta R3.16 six months ago says it is beginning to wear out.

“I got the Quanta R3.16 about 6 months ago and it's beginning to wear out.”

A 4.2–4.4 player finds the Quanta R3 helps their drives with less swing and covers the middle in cross-court dink battles, but has a less forgiving sweet spot and less control than the J2NFT.

“he really believes that I played better with Quanta, especially in mini single. It helps my drive and I tend to swing a little bit less when using Quanta.”

After about five months of 4–6 hours a week, the edge guard on a player's Quanta R3.16 came loose and then dislodged, though Ronbus replaced it quickly under warranty.

“I bought a Ronbus Quanta R3.16 9/2025, the edge guard started coming loose recently after 4-6 hrs weekly play.”

After a couple of months at 6–8 hours a week, the edge guard on a player's Quanta R3 came loose at the top; Ronbus replaced it under warranty.

“Played on my R3 for 6-8 hrs a week for a couple months. Edge guard came loose at the top.”

A Quanta R3.16 owner had the top of the edge guard come loose and got a warranty replacement within a week.

“I’ve had same issue with the Quantas 3.16 … top of edge guard loose but replaced in a week”
