With Vaporesso producing consistently reliable and rewarding devices, I really wanted to find out more about this latest offering and I can say that the Luxe X is one of the most diverse pod systems I have tried so far.
Previously I’ve been lucky enough to test out the XROS Mini and the GTX GO 40, so I was really keen to give this new device from Vaporesso a try.
It is paradoxically chunky yet small and is the epitome of palm sized. Due to its rounded edges, this kit is very comfortable and easy to grip.
With a lightweight feel, even with a fully-filled pod, the Luxe X oozes convenience and portability.
Device specifications:
- Dimensions: 98*21.5*21.6mm
- Battery capacity: 1500mAh
- Output power: 40W max
- Charging: DC 5V/1.5A, USB C
- Display: 3 x LED light
When looking at the device, one of the first noticeable features is the futuristic, transparent exterior that reveals the inner workings of this awesome kit – something I have a penchant for when it comes to electronic devices.
Other than the clear casing, the outside of this kit is quite basic, featuring a fire button, a USB C charging port and a few LED lights.
Having no screen or up/down buttons, the Luxe X eliminates any confusion or inconvenience and is therefore very straightforward to operate.
The battery level is indicated via three small LED lights on the front of the device. The Vaporesso Luxe X is powered by a long lasting 1500mAh integrated battery that is charged rapidly via USB C. I found that a full charge lasted me around 12-15 hours of light to moderate usage, so pretty impressive in my opinion.
One of my favourite things about this kit would be its coil compatibility. The Luxe X uses pods with built-in mesh coils (the box included a 0.4ohm and a 0.8ohm pod) and both offer varied vaping experiences.
With no leakage from either pod, even with thinner consistency e-liquid, this is something that is simple but very much appreciated.
How does the Luxe X perform?
In the 0.8ohm pod, I opted for a 20mg nicotine salt e-liquid and found that the flavour was decent but the throat hit was intense.
When I tried out the 0.4ohm pod, paired up with a 3mg, 70VG e-liquid, the inhale was smooth, incredibly flavourful and gave quite a large, billowy exhale.
The fact that one device can offer such varied types of vaping was insane and both were executed flawlessly.
This functionality is mainly due to the ‘AXON Chip Smart Control’ feature that automatically detects pod resistance that then selects the perfect wattage for the particular coil.
To further customise your vaping experience, airflow can be adjusted by simply rotating the pod, allowing for either a tight MTL inhale or a loose DTL inhale.
How durable is the Vaporesso Luxe X?
Durability is a big factor for me and the Vaporesso Luxe X uses a special three-layer coating designed to resist most abrasion and drop impacts. This was then put to the test from a height of about 1.5m, and there was not even a scratch on it.
How much is it?
Alongside its performance and durability, the Luxe X will retail at around the £30-£35 mark.
Overall thoughts on the Vaporesso Luxe X Kit
With its easy-to-fill, built-in coil pods, its capability of offering both a true MTL and DTL experience and a decent price point, this kit can literally suit just about any vaper out there.
Pros:
- The capacity to offer both decent MTL and DTL vaping was a game changer
- See through exterior
- Pretty decent battery life
Cons:
- I personally prefer replaceable coils rather than replaceable pods
