    from what i know. If the sticker covers the serial numbers, it's likely to be fake.

    Hard to tell... Can you make a picture? What does the hologram look like? What does the plastic back-cap look like? How does the racket feel? Are the stringing instructions laser engraved?

    hi there, FYI starting this 2-3 past years, SUNRISE use a new type of SUNRISE hologram sticker.
    I will attach a two pictures to differentiate the old and new stickers.

    this one the new type of SUNRISE hologram sticker.

    and this is fake, moreover SUNRISE doesn't attached their hologram's sticker on the grip area, they attached it on the cone. and this one is not being used by SUNRISE for a long time enough for rackets, but some items such as apparels, string, grips and etc are still use this stickers. :confused:
