Vaporesso LUXE XR MAX 2 Review: Power Meets Style in a Compact Marvel

We reviewed the original LUXE XR MAX about a year ago and were thoroughly impressed by its well-balanced mix of size, performance, and aesthetics. That hands-on experience gave us a solid benchmark, so when the LUXE XR MAX 2 arrived, expectations were high. Thankfully, it didn’t just meet them—it exceeded them. The MAX 2 quickly became a staple in our rotation and reaffirmed Vaporesso’s reputation for refining greatness.

Battery Life: Bigger, Better, Still Compact

The LUXE XR MAX 2 features a 3200mAh battery—an upgrade from the original’s 2800mAh—offering 14% more power without increasing its overall footprint. Whether you’re vaping at high wattages with the 0.2Ω coil or using MTL setups on a 1.2Ω coil, the battery easily lasts all day or longer. Backed by the AXON chip and Pulse Mode, the device delivers consistent output while preserving flavor integrity.

Vaping Performance: Flavor That Lasts

Vaporesso’s dual mesh GTX coils are a major win here, producing rich, consistent flavor with excellent coil longevity. The airflow is finely adjustable, allowing users to effortlessly switch between MTL and DTL styles. The result? A highly versatile vape that caters to all preferences without compromising on vapor production or throat hit.

Display & Design: A Visual Treat with Thoughtful Touches

The upgraded 0.96-inch TFT screen offers a crisp readout of all essential settings, including wattage, battery status, and coil resistance. Add to that Vaporesso’s dynamic lighting modes—Nebula, Vital, and Wave—and you have a visually engaging device that feels truly interactive.

Practical features like a one-button lock, clearly labeled adjustment controls, and a drop-resistant silicone base complete the user-friendly design. It’s stylish without being flashy and compact yet sturdy.

Real-World Feedback: What Vapers Are Saying

Community response has been overwhelmingly positive:

• “Lasts all day at 40W with the 0.2Ω coil.”
• “Super smooth and flavorful—dual mesh coils are a game-changer.”
• “Ergonomic feel, and the texture helps with grip.”

The only recurring critique? The pods are a bit dark, making it harder to check e-liquid levels at a glance. Still, this hasn’t stopped the MAX 2 from receiving high marks across the board.

Head-to-Head: LUXE XR MAX vs. MAX 2

Here’s how the MAX 2 builds on an already strong foundation:

• Battery: 2800mAh → 3200mAh (+14%)
• Size: Slightly taller, still pocket-friendly
• Display: Basic → high-visibility TFT
• Coils: Added support for dual mesh
• Airflow: Enhanced for precise MTL and DTL
• Lighting: Now includes dynamic modes

The MAX 2 isn’t a complete reinvention—it’s a smart and deliberate refinement. Think of it as the original MAX with added endurance, flair, and polish.
