2. Design & Quality
2.1 Kit Contents
The VAPORESSO LUXE X PRO kit comes with the following components:
– LUXE X PRO Battery/Body
– LUXE X 0.4-ohm Mesh Pod
– LUXE X 0.6-ohm Mesh Pod
– Type C Cable
– User Manual
– Warranty Card
2.2 Pod Design
The LUXE X PRO is compatible with LUXE X SERIES PODs. These pods use a GTX mesh coil for superior heating. As listed in the section above, the kit comes with two sub-ohm disposable pods to start – one with a 0.4-ohm coil and one with a 0.6-ohm coil. The pods have a plentify 5mL capacity, so you won’t have to refill as often.
The pods have a fairly typical construction, made from tinted plastic and with a wide tapered mouthpiece. The refill port can be found on the underside of the pod and is sealed with a silicone cover that is super easy to open for mess-free refilling. The pod is held into place by not two – but four strong magnets!
2.3 Body Design
The VAPORESSO LUXE X PRO mod has an angular industrial design with a few different textures and elements. The center of the body sports a shiny OLED screen with two textured square buttons (+ and -). The draw activation button sits above the screen and is significantly larger than the other two buttons to avoid confusion. There are multiple VAPORESSO branding elements etched into the body.
The left and right sides have clear plastic windows that reveal a diagonal body design. This adds to the industrial feel and gives the impression that the device is sleeker or slimmer in the middle, even though it is not. The airflow control slider is found on the right side of the vape and has a heavy-duty metal sliding button and etched symbols that indicate more or less airflow. Finally, the charging port is located on the underside of the body.
The LUXE X PRO is available in 7 color options, including Ultra Orange, Dazzling Yellow, Gunmetal Lime, Pink, White, Black, and Blue. Each colorway has a distinct look and vibe, so you can pick one that perfectly matches your personality!
Durability
The LUXE X PRO is built with long-term durability in mind. As a pod mod device, the pods are disposable and will be replaced fairly often, but the LUXE X PRO battery needs to withstand months or years of daily wear and tear. The body has a sturdy metal construction and strong plastic side covers. The OLED screen seems to be inset beneath a layer of plastic to protect against serious bumps or falls.
Does the Vaporesso LUXE X PRO leak?
The LUXE X PRO is advertised as having an anti-leak and anti-mess design. I did notice a few small droplets of e-juice collect between the magnets of the pod and body, but this was minimal. This had no impact on the refilling experience, and the port seal stayed dry.
Ergonomics
This vape does have a good amount of heft to it, thanks to the huge battery, but with a smaller body, the LUXE X PRO fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, and the weight is distributed nicely. The activation button and airflow slider are optimally placed so that only your thumb has to move to make adjustments or push the button. The taper on the mouthpiece is deep, so if you prefer a deeper lip seal – the option exists.
4. Battery and Charging
The selection of a 1500 mAh battery was a great choice from VAPORESSO. The battery easily lasts for 10 to 12 hours of consistent use, depending on where you set the wattage. That kind of battery life makes the LUXE X PRO a worthwhile pick-up if you are always on the go or away from home for long periods.
You can easily monitor the battery life in real time using the percentage indicator on the OLED screen. When it is time to recharge, plug in a USB Type C cable. Charging the LUXE X PRO from 0% to 100% takes about 60 minutes. This may not be the fastest recharging time on the market, but it’s pretty par for the course for a 1500 mAh battery.
5. Performance
The LUXE X PRO packs a punch, even at lower wattages. Like most pod mods, the draw falls between a Restricted Direct Lung (RDL) and Direct-to-Lung (DTL) experience, depending on where you set the airflow slider. The vapor production on this device is great – even short puffs produce a high volume of vapor.
The flavor delivery is consistent, and the temperature is perfect below 30 watts. I found that between 30-40 watts, the vapor was definitely warmer, but that’s part of using a wattage outside of the recommended range.
6. Ease of Use
Some vapers shy away from devices with screens, worried that there are too many menus or button combinations for them to remember, and they don’t want to deal with the headache. The VAPORESSO LUXE X PRO keeps it simple and easy when it comes to this area.
When the screen is activated, there are three indicators – remaining battery level, wattage, and puff count. Just after a puff, the puff count is replaced by a draw time indicator (in seconds). The wattage is easily adjusted with the + and – buttons.
The LUXE X PRO will use Smart Mode to automatically detect the optimal wattage for the installed pod. The 0.4-ohm coil performs best between 26-32W, and the 0.6-ohm coil performs best between 20-26W.
If you want to clear the puff count or turn off Smart Mode, the User Manual has all the details you would ever want.
7. Price
The LUXE X PRO is available now! You can purchase this vape from VAPORESSO’s online store for $42.90 (normally $47.90). If you don’t want to hassle with replacing GTX coils, be sure to purchase the LUXE X 2pc pod pack when you need replacements. These are available for between $6-8, depending on current sales.
For $43 plus the occasional replacement pods, the LUXE X PRO is a budget-friendly option that is packed with useful and thoughtfully designed features.
8. Verdict
The VAPORESSO LUXE X PRO stands out for its versatility and user-friendly features. The adjustable wattage and airflow give users the freedom to customize their vaping experience, while the 5 mL pod capacity reduces the frequency of refills. The device’s compatibility with LUXE X Series mesh pods ensures high-quality flavor and vapor production. The 1500 mAh battery is another strong point, offering long-lasting power that can easily get you through the day.
The OLED screen is clear and easy to read, and the smart wattage recommendation is a helpful touch for those unsure about setting up their device. The anti-leak design is mostly effective, and the device’s sturdy construction suggests it will hold up well over time.
While the device is mostly leak-proof, some minor droplet accumulation was observed, although this didn’t significantly impact the overall experience. The charging time of about 60 minutes may not be the fastest on the market, but it’s reasonable given the battery’s capacity.
All in all, the VAPORESSO LUXE X PRO offers a well-rounded vaping experience that combines functionality, customization, and durability. It’s a device that caters to both new and experienced vapers, offering a range of features that are both practical and easy to use.
While it has minor drawbacks, they are easily overshadowed by its numerous advantages. For its price point of $42.90, it offers excellent value for money, making it a solid investment for anyone looking to elevate their vaping experience.
