Hi I'm new here and only an amateur player

My dad gave me a budget of RM 300, I was thinking about buying a Yonex Arcsaber 008. It costs Rm 250. Or a Yonex Nanospeed 800
But I've seen many good reviews about apacs own line and their clones. For RM 200+ should I get an apacs or yonex? Also I saw alot of broken apacs racket frames. Does this happen often? How about yonex rackets' durability?
Thank you all sifus

what is your play style? attacking/defensive? singles/doubles?
for that budget, i rather get Apacs top line. AS008 should be similar to Tantrum series? Tantrum 200 suits doubles more.
if single, can get Lethal 70. if add extra RM50, can get Lethal 90 which is latest model from Apacs with aerodynamic frame.
yonex low range have very low max tension. if you string over that tension and it breaks, yonex wont let u claim warranty.
Apacs have higher max tension. if it's a clash between rackets, every racket have a high chance of breakage no matter it's Yonex, LiNing, Victor or other famous brands.
