Title: Great buy for indoor use - easy to see!
Review: ALERT! The balls are NOT the bright teal they seem to be in the pictures on Amazon. They are a bit more dull. However...My wife and I were playing indoors, and she was having a lot of trouble seeing yellow/orange balls. We tried these to create some visual contrast to the gymnasium floor. On this front, they work wonderfully. In fact, the facility started buying these as every player found them much easier to see than lighter colored balls.From a performance perspective, they're also great. Not indestructible, and I've SEEN a few cracked, but never cracked one myself. They seem adequately durable and play very well.Overall, very happy with the balls and they earned the 5 star rating, but don't be surprised when the color seems a bit off upon arrival.

Title: 2nd time to purchase
Review: This color shows up well on gym floors. Quality is as expected, price is right. 4 stars as I wish it was a little more split resistant as slammers destroy them fairly quickly. I haven't found a ball that has addressed this issue any better however. For more advanced players, where constant slamming isn't the norm, they perform well. Will purchase again.

Title: Franklin missed the mark on these subpar balls
Review: Franklin is usually a reliable brand but I was very disappointed with these X-26 indoor balls. For starters, the color is a more of an olive green. I found it hard to see when playing. Why didn't they make the color the same as the outdoor X-40 balls? Those are a bright, light highlighter easy-to-see greenish yellow balls. See attached pic with side-by-side comparison. Next, was the bounce. These balls had very lousy bounce when played on a gymnasium wood surface. Maybe on a different surface this ball may have better bounce to it but on a gymnasium floor it bounced poorly and played very slow. You had to really swing your paddle to hit these balls. Lastly, they don't last. You'll be lucky if you can get in 2hrs of play with these before they crack on you. Probably b/c you really have to put a lot more swing into each hit back & forth. You're better off looking elsewhere for a better quality indoor pickle ball b/c these will disappoint.

Title: The batch I got was inferior
Review: Bought this for indoor pickleball. There were two seams that seem to be protruding and would affect the quality of the ball. I called Wilson and show them pictures of the ball and they sent me another set that did not have the same double seam. It still had some small seam on it. They play well. Not sure if I just got a defective batch.

Review: Nothing special, but they don’t need to be for a good price and decent quality I don’t see what else I need from a pickleball.

Review: Llevo apenas un mes jugando con este modelo en duela, obviamente el desgaste no se compara con pelotas de exterior pero la presentación y bote son de buena calidad.

Review: When I read, "3 pack 12 pieces"- it was my understanding that I was getting 3 packs of balls with a total of 12 pieces. This seemed like a fair price for 22 Euros. I was surprised when I got 1 pack with 3 pieces. It is probably my mistake, but after reviewing it all- they could have been clearer. So, make sure you want to pay 22 Euros for 3 balls that normally should cost 8 Euros.

Review: The balls all have a large seam where the two halves were joined together. This makes them go at unexpected angles when hitting and bouncing.

Review: The first ball out of the pack cracked after 1 hour of limited spcial play, no hard hitters just people playing and learning the game.

Customers say

Customers like the ball's playability and value for money. They mention it's a great indoor ball and appreciate the seam quality. However, some customers have reported that the bounce is wonky and the balls don't always bounce straight. They also have issues with visibility and disagree on its durability, color accuracy, and overall quality.
