Which one suits you

Pick the Galactica Lite if

You want to spend less: it is £32 cheaper delivered today (£69.99 against £102).
You want more power: a hybrid head puts the sweet spot higher, which helps smashes and volleys.
You want comfort: the core is soft, which gives more help on slow balls and tends to be kinder to the arm.
You want a lighter racket: about 15 g less.

Pick the Galactica OS if

You want more control and a bigger sweet spot: a round head is more forgiving on off-centre hits.
You swing fast and want a crisper response: the core is firmer.

Not a factor, because they are the same on both: balance (both medium), level (both advanced).
