My review is biased, since i have not played other rubbers, only lend gear for few sessions.
Setup Yasaka sweden classic, 2.0 MM thickness
I have used this on my forehand for 8 months. Control is excellent. Catapult is manageable. Good beginner friendly. I agree with most reviews, and it is a good rubber.
However, the spin is not that good. Compared to rasanter nuzn,, and even vega europe the spin is not as high.

Andro Hexer PowerGrip SFX
by Andro
· Part of 2019 Andro Hexer Rubber
Spin, feeling, consistency, control.
Hexer, one of Andro's most famous rubber series has received an upgrade. Now designed for the plastic ball, this rubber combines 100% natural rubber with a modern sponge. This SFX version features a softer 42.5° sponge with small pores. Powergrip is rubber with a significant boost in power. The strong grip of the top sheet and the softer, fast sponge allow the player to execute attacks with more than enough energy to end the point. This rubber is highly suited for aggressive loopers who are looking for some more softness and control.

Reviews of Andro Hexer PowerGrip SFX (14)
This was my first tensor rubber and it is a strange one. I have 2.1 mm on both sides of Andro Novacell OFF/S. It feels soft but it has lot of spin even for slow serves. I don't know if the reason is the blade or the topsheet. Anyway, with my technique AHPSFX is better for serves than for example way higher ranked Victas V > 01 Stiff with more flexible Koki Niwa Wood. If you like soft rubbers this is the best I have used and the weight is light. Incredible control after you get used to the rather small catapult effect. This is not made for looping but blocking and chopping are easy and if you like to play close the table this might be the right rubber for you. Highly recommended for beginners especially if you have not tried tensors before. I really like the low throw angle. It's hard to hit the ball over the table. Biggest problem is the lack of speed but then again you can win points with accuracy.
Crispy click sound. It's medium soft according to the description. I bought 4 for the price less than $30, all in red. It's a safe backhand rubber with enough power from distance and sound control in close table. FH I have DHS Hurricane 8-80. It's a good combo as DHS is heavy. It gets along with ALC and ZLC blades. Buy it and save for future before out of stock.
I used the Hexer Powergrip SFX last season 2023/24 after not not playing since the so called Corvid pandemic and considering I just wanted a rubber that was not to unpredictable and good grip to create a good spin and the Hexer PG SFX proved perfect.
After playing with this for a season I thought I would try some different newer type of Hybrid rubbers and tested a lot of club members bats to find one that could generate more spin. Even though some of these rubbers have higher spin ratings here on Revspin I was dissapointed to find that I could not generate as much spin as my Hexer Powergrip sfx.
Joola Tronnix, Tihbar MK, Andro Rasanter R42/R47, Gewo Nexxus all were great rubbers to play with and try but my Adro Hexer Power SFX was just that little bit extra grip and spin.
After a lot of testing I will be using the Hexer powergrip SFX on my backhand again next season due to it being an absolute spin monster, whipping all to submission.
But on my forehand where I'm a heavy hitter I noticed the Rubber was not as durable and had suffered after all that thrashing and that I did prefer some of the other rubbers I have tried due to speed, power and spin combination.
So if your looking for a quick spin beast which is better than it is actually rated on Revspin, then the Andro Hexer Powergrip SFX was revelation to me and my game.
It could be that my technique is suited to this Rubber but I have been so pleased I tried it and can not recommend it enough for fantastic spin and good power combination.
