Voopoo Drag X review: quick verdict and who it suits
The Drag X is the original mod-style pod kit in the Drag X line, with an alloy and leather body and two PnP coils in the box. It is for adults who already own, or will buy, a suitable 18650 cell.
The upgraded version is covered in the Drag X Pro review. For a built-in battery, see the Drag S Pro review.
Who should buy it
Buy the Drag X if you want 80W, PnP coils and a colour screen at a lower price, and you already own a quality 18650 battery.
Who should skip it
Skip it if you want a self-contained kit, because the battery is external and sold separately. Also skip it if you are new to vaping, since loose cells need careful handling.
Specifications and what is in the listing
The listing gives the following for this Voopoo Drag X review: a single external 18650 battery sold separately, output of 5 to 80W, a 4.5ml PnP pod, PnP-VM1 0.3 ohm and PnP-VM6 0.15 ohm coils in the box, the GENE.TT chipset, a colour TFT screen, USB Type-C charging, an infinite airflow system, an alloy, leather and PCTG body, button firing and a Score Mode ranking system.
The listing says the kit is best suited to freebase liquids because of the lower-resistance coils. It does not include a battery, so budget for one.
Voopoo Drag X power, battery and draw
Power runs from 5 to 80W, and battery life depends on the 18650 cell you fit. Buy a quality cell from a reputable seller and keep it in a case when not in the device.
Pods and coils
Two PnP coils come in the box, 0.3 ohm for a tighter draw and 0.15 ohm for a looser one. Spare PnP coils are on the store, and each listing says which kit it fits.
Everyday use and upkeep
Firing is by button only, and the infinite airflow lets you tune the draw. The 4.5ml pod is top-filled.
Avoid parked cars in Dubai heat and let new coils soak before the first draw. Do not overfill the pod or carry loose cells with keys or coins.
How it compares with similar kits
The table compares the Drag X with three other high-power kits we list, using figures from the product titles and listings.
| Kit | Power | Battery | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voopoo Drag X | 5-80W | External 18650, sold separately | AED 130 |
| Voopoo Drag X Pro | 5-100W (specs); 80W (title) | External 18650/21700, sold separately | AED 140 |
| Voopoo Drag S Pro | 5-80W | 3000mAh built in | AED 140 |
| Vaporesso Armour GS | 5-80W | External 18650, not included | AED 140 |
The Drag X is the cheapest of the four. Once you add a battery, the Drag S Pro at AED 140 includes one for AED 10 more.
UAE rules, nicotine strength and safe use
Electronic nicotine products sold in the UAE fall under a national standard, which you can read about on the UAE.S 5030:2018 standard (MoIAT). Removable lithium batteries must be handled and stored safely. This is a refillable kit, so the nicotine strength depends on the liquid. Buy only from a licensed seller. Rules can change, so confirm current limits with MOIAT rather than relying on any blog post.
The NHS says vaping is less harmful than smoking but not risk-free, and that it is not for people who do not smoke or for children. We sell only to adults aged 21 and over. Keep devices, pods, coils and liquids away from children and pets.
This post is general product information, not medical or legal advice, and we make no claim that vaping helps anyone quit smoking.
Price, delivery and final verdict
The Drag X is listed at AED 130, without a battery. Prices and stock change, so check the product page before you order.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 5-80W and two PnP coils in the box | External battery is sold separately |
| Colour screen and infinite airflow | Button firing only |
| Cheapest kit of its class we list | Best for freebase, not salts |
| 4.5ml top-fill pod | Loose cells need careful handling |
Our verdict: the Voopoo Drag X is for experienced users with a spare 18650, while most buyers get better value from the Drag S Pro.
