Buy the RX Series for safe versatility; choose the Equation WPT if you play often and want more attacking edge.
Same intermediate playground, different attack. The Adidas RX Series at £100-110 is the safe, versatile pick: teardrop shape, medium balance, soft EVA performance core, carbon face. It works for varied play styles and most improving players will get on with it instantly.
The Nox Equation WPT at £160 carries World Padel Tour branding and is designed for players ready to lean into a more competitive feel, Nox typically build with a slight power-bias and excellent tactility for the price.
How I'd decide: - RX Series if you're still figuring out your game and want a forgiving carbon frame that handles everything. - Equation WPT if you've identified yourself as an attacking player and want a frame with a bit more attitude.
The £50 gap is the question. The Adidas gives you 90% of what most intermediates need. The Nox earns the premium only if you're genuinely playing two or three times a week and want a racket with character. Most weekenders should save the money.
