Rozena, with that feeling of the ball flying on its own, didn't really suit me, so I switched to this rubber. Here's a comparison with Rozena.
Speed: Rozena = Q1
Spin: Rozena = Q1
Blocking: Rozena >>> Q1
Ease of use: Rozena = Q1 (slightly <<)
Value for money: Rozena <<<<<< Q1
Honestly, after using Q1, the performance felt about the same. But if you like a rubber where the ball flies and spins on its own, I think Rozena is the better choice.Conclusion: go with Q1 if you want value for money, Rozena if you want performance.

This rubber is perfect for the backhand.
The ball sinks in nicely and it's very stable.
I'd recommend it as your second or third rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Test-hit with QQ on the forehand and Q1 on the backhand of an Altius ST5.
I tried both sides, flipping back and forth, and Q1 felt slightly harder compared to QQ.
Officially QQ is 46 degrees and Q1 is 44 degrees... so why is that??
In my own feel, it's slightly harder than Vega Europe or the Raigan series.Grip on the ball is very good — spin is a cut above Vega Europe or Raigan Spin in the same price/volume bracket.
Also, maybe it's just my lack of skill, but I found pushes and stop shots a bit hard to control.
It wasn't stable unless I mainly used a cutting push.
Still, even accounting for that, it's very stable on rallies against both backspin and topspin, so I think it's a really good rubber.Also, combined with a soft blade, the grip on the ball was too strong and hard to handle.
It's a rubber built for playing a spin-and-control-focused game, so I think it suits a composite blade or a slightly harder all-wood blade better.A medium-feel wood blade with Q1 on the forehand and Vega Europe or Raigan Spin on the backhand would probably make for an easy-to-use setup up through the intermediate level.

Insanely soft. I'd recommend it for an intermediate player's backhand or a beginner's forehand. The discount isn't much and it's not that great overall, so I don't really recommend it. As for lifespan, if you practice about 2 hours a day it lasts about a month; at 5 days a week, about a month and a half.

On YouTube and other websites it's described as being "for beginners," but that's really not the case at all.
The sponge is 44 degrees, a nice moderate hardness, and the sheet has really good grip on the ball.
Even Sakamoto-san, one of the advisory staff, has it on the backhand of his own blade, so it's a rubber that advanced players can handle more than well enough.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I've seen a lot of comments saying it's really soft, but it's actually harder and heavier than Factive or Raigan Spin.
Compared to those rubbers, the sheet is stronger, so loops where you brush upward grip the rubber very consistently.
Meeting the ball and topspin drives both go in consistently whether you hit lightly or fairly hard.If anything, it feels less "automatic" — more like a rubber where you shape the shot yourself — but compared to top-tier rubbers, everything still goes in easily.
The speed is moderate, so if you're putting it on your forehand, it's probably best suited to someone between beginner and intermediate.
Intermediate players and above, or full swingers, will probably find it a bit lacking.I think it's a great rubber to step up to from soft, entry-level tension rubbers like Factive, Raigan, or Vega Europe.

True to being aimed at beginner-to-intermediate players, it's light and easy to swing all the way through even at 2.1mm. It's also easy to control, so I'd really recommend it as a backhand rubber. The price is reasonable too, which is nice.
