Two rackets of the same weight can feel different when you swing them.
Static Weight and Balance Are Different
Static weight describes mass. Balance describes how that mass is distributed. Two rackets with the same listed weight can feel different when you start or stop a swing.
Include Your Playing Setup
Extra grips and frame protection add mass and may change balance. Compare rackets in the setup you will actually use, and note whether a published figure includes accessories.
Try different weights
A lighter frame may feel easier to maneuver; more mass can change stability at contact. Neither is automatically better. Try repeated volleys, blocks and overheads before choosing.
Keep comparable measurements
Record the manufacturer’s weight range, balance description and your session notes. Do not compare an exact shop measurement with the midpoint of another model’s advertised range as if both were measured identically.
Read a weight tolerance correctly
Air Veron 2.6 is listed at 355 g ± 10 g: that allows a nominal range of 345–365 g. Ask for the weight of the actual unit if it matters to your choice. Adding an overgrip changes the ready-to-play measurement.
