For several years, Vaporesso has established itself as one of the leading manufacturers of electronic cigarettes. The brand is renowned for its technological innovations, the reliability of its AXON chipsets, and its ability to offer pods that are both high-performing, user-friendly, and elegant.
The Luxe range perfectly illustrates this philosophy. Following the success of the Luxe X2, appreciated for its simplicity and comfortable 2000 mAh battery life, and more versatile models such as the Luxe XR Max and the Luxe XR Max2, Vaporesso returns with an even more ambitious version: the Luxe X3.
This new pod retains the DNA of the series—compact design, precise flavor delivery, wide compatibility—while introducing major upgrades:
• Built-in 2600 mAh battery
• Maximum power output of 45 watts
• 0.8” digital display
• Secure locking system
• New Luxe X Dual Mesh cartridges
These new dual mesh cartridges promise more even heating, improved flavor reproduction, and optimized lifespan. In short: more battery life, more power, more control… without sacrificing simplicity.
A compact, premium design
Measuring 107.6 x 31.4 x 22.8 mm, the Luxe X3 remains compact while incorporating a more generous battery. Its robust chassis, metallic finishes and wide range of colours give it a premium look and feel.
The addition of a 0.8-inch digital display radically changes the user experience. It features:
• The selected power
• Battery level
• Lock status
Clear and easy to read, it finally allows for precise adjustment, unlike the simple LEDs found on previous generations.
Game-changing autonomy
The built-in 2600 mAh battery makes the Luxe X3 one of the longest-lasting pods in its class.
• Moderate vaper: up to 3 to 4 days of battery life
• Heavy vaper: approximately 2 full days
Fast USB-C charging (5V/2A) allows for a full recharge in just over an hour.
A colour code makes it easier to read the battery level:
• Green: 100 to 60 per cent
• Blue: 60 to 20 per cent
• Red: 20 to 0 per cent

Power and settings
The Luxe X3 offers power of up to 45 watts. Pressing the button three times allows you to adjust the power. The chipset automatically limits the watts according to the resistance installed in order to prevent misuse.
Other key points:
• Activation by button or auto-draw
• Precisely adjustable side airflow
• Lock button under the pod (transport safety)
The new Luxe X Dual Mesh cartridges
The kit includes two 5ml cartridges:
Cartouche Dual Mesh 0.4 ohm
• More airy RDL pull
• 26 to 32 W
• Dense, hot steam
• Recommended nicotine: up to 6 mg/ml
Cartouche Dual Mesh 0.6 ohm
• Moderate RDL draw
• 20 to 30 W
• Excellent balance of flavour and vapour
• Recommended nicotine: up to 12 mg/ml
Dual Mesh technology ensures:
• More even heating
• More precise flavours
• Improved service life
Refilling is done from the top, without removing the cartridge: simple and clean.

The X2 remains an excellent choice for users seeking simplicity. The X3 is more suited to those who want control, power and enhanced battery life.
For this review, we entrusted the Luxe X3 to Anthony, logistics manager at Sweetch. He used the Luxe X3 for 10 days with the e-liquid Menthe Verte from Canadian manufacturer Montreal Original. Here are his impressions:
What was your first impression of this pod?
You immediately feel that Vaporesso aimed to move upmarket. The weight is slightly higher than the X2, but it inspires confidence. The integration of the screen really changes the perception of the product: we’re no longer dealing with an entry-level pod, but rather a hybrid device between a pod and a compact pod-mod. The finish is clean, and the build quality is precise.
How was the handling experience?
Very intuitive. Being able to manually adjust the power is a real plus for me. With the 0.6 ohm, I deliberately tested several power ranges between 22 and 28 W to see how the Dual Mesh would respond. The flavor delivery remains stable, even when slightly increasing the wattage. The side airflow is precise and allows you to fine-tune the RDL draw very satisfactorily.
What is your overall experience with this pod?
What stood out to me was the consistency. Over 10 days, I noticed no loss of performance. The Dual Mesh is clearly effective: fast ramp-up, dense vapor, and well-saturated flavor.
With the Menthe Verte, the flavors remain clean, with no overheating effect or alteration of the profile.
Another important point: battery management is excellent. At moderate power, I easily lasted two full days without recharging. For a compact pod, that’s remarkable.
Did you encounter any difficulties?
No technical issues at all. The only thing to note is that it’s slightly bulkier than an ultra-minimalist pod, but that’s the trade-off for greater battery life and power.
Who would you recommend this pod to?
I would clearly recommend it to intermediate to advanced vapers who want a pod capable of replacing a small box mod. It will also perfectly suit users looking for long battery life without switching to bulky equipment.
For a beginner, it remains accessible, but it truly shines in the hands of a vaper who knows how to adjust power and airflow to optimize performance.

With the Luxe X3, Vaporesso isn't revolutionising its range... but it is intelligently perfecting it. Greater autonomy, more power, a real screen, precise control and high-performance Dual Mesh cartridges: the Luxe X3 ticks all the boxes for a modern and versatile pod.
It will be perfectly suitable:
• For vapers looking for long battery life
• For those who want a scalable pod
• For lovers of intense flavours
• For those who are torn between simplicity and performance
The Luxe X3 confirms that the Luxe series continues to move upmarket without losing its DNA: efficiency, reliability and vaping pleasure.
