Vaporesso Luxe X3 45W Pod Vape Kit

The Vaporesso Luxe X3 is the third-generation Luxe X pod kit and the biggest battery upgrade the series has seen. A 2600mAh built-in battery, Smart AXON chipset, and 5W to 45W regulated output sit behind a 0.8 inch digital display with an embedded LED light strip. The kit comes with two COREX dual-mesh pods (0.6 ohm pre-installed and a 0.4 ohm in the box) and stays cross-compatible with the wider Vaporesso Luxe pod platform, so existing older Luxe X dual-mesh and Luxe XR pods slot straight in.

Built by Vaporesso (a SMOORE brand operating under TPD compliance for the UK market), the Luxe X3 is aimed at the vaper who wants longer days between charges, a screen that actually tells them something useful, and the freedom to pick MTL or restricted-DTL with a flick of the side-slider airflow.

The Luxe X3 sits above the original Luxe X and Luxe X2 on battery (2600mAh versus 1500mAh and 1000mAh) and adds a front-facing digital display the earlier generations never had. Wattage range stays in step with the Luxe X family at 5W to 45W. The COREX heating technology carries over so the dual-mesh pods deliver the warmer, more saturated flavour the original Luxe X dual-mesh tech is known for.

Compared to the larger Luxe XR Max 2, the X3 keeps the slimmer, pocket-shaped body at 107 by 31.4 by 22.8 mm and 100g, so it stays a true everyday carry rather than a sub-ohm crossover.

2600mAh Battery and USB-C Charging

The 2600mAh internal battery is the headline change versus the Luxe X2 (1000mAh) and original Luxe X (1500mAh). For a 20mg nic salt user vaping around 250 puffs a day, that lands in the all-day-and-then-some bracket, depending on resistance and wattage.

Charging runs over USB Type-C at DC 5V/2A. A standard 2A wall adapter takes the Luxe X3 from empty to full in roughly 60 to 75 minutes. Pass-through means you can keep vaping while it charges.

Smart AXON Chipset and the 0.8 Inch Display

The Smart AXON chipset is the same firmware Vaporesso uses across the XROS, Armour and Luxe lines. It handles automatic pod recognition, child-lock, button-lock, and a single-button mode switch between MTL and DTL output curves.

The 0.8 inch front display shows wattage, real-time battery percentage, current pod resistance, and a puff count. An embedded LED light strip runs alongside it and gives a quick visual battery read at a glance. Useful when the device is sitting face-down on a desk.

0.6 Ohm and 0.4 Ohm Dual-Mesh Pods Included

Both pods that come in the kit use Vaporesso's COREX heating technology with a dual-mesh coil structure. The 0.6 ohm pod is pre-installed and suits 10mg or 20mg nic salt for a tighter, cooler MTL draw. The 0.4 ohm pod sits in the box for users who want a warmer, restricted-DTL hit and pair well with 50/50 freebase liquids.

UK pods are 2ml TPD-compliant, refilled through a side-fill port. Spares are stocked on the dedicated older Luxe X dual-mesh pods page, and the older Luxe X dual-mesh pods still fit the X3.

Side-Slider Airflow and Dual Activation Firing

Airflow is set with a sliding control on the side of the device. Running from a tight MTL pull at the closed end through to a more open restricted-DTL when fully open. The slider has firm detents, so it holds the position you set rather than drifting in a pocket.

Firing is dual activation: take a draw and it fires automatically, or press the side button on the inhale. Both modes can be locked independently using the AXON chipset, so accidental pocket firing is straightforward to rule out.

Cross-Platform Pod Compatibility

The Luxe X3 accepts three pod families: the COREX 2.0 dual-mesh pods that come in the kit, the older Luxe X dual-mesh pods (also listed on Ecigone), and the GTX-coil Luxe XR pods. The Luxe XR pods carry replaceable GTX coils, which opens up a wider resistance range than the integrated dual-mesh pods for vapers who want to experiment.

If your starting point is a different range entirely, the Luxe X3 is not compatible with Luxe Q pods (a separate platform). For wider context on which Vaporesso device takes which pod, the Luxe range page has the full breakdown.
