There’s no doubt that disposable vapes are the biggest things in vaping today, but there’s a wide world of different flavors and nicotine strengths that aren’t available to you unless you use a refillable vape.
- There are hundreds – maybe even thousands – of vape flavors on the market, but only a fraction of those are available in pre-filled form.
- Most disposable vapes are available in only one nicotine strength – 50 mg/ml – and don’t give you the option of stepping down to a lower strength or going nicotine free.
- Disposable vapes also come with an enormous environmental load because most of the lithium that’s used in the batteries doesn’t get recycled and ends up in landfills.
If you like the convenience and overall experience of using disposable vapes, though, what are you supposed to do? That’s the question that the Vaporesso Vibe and Vibe Nano Pro intend to answer. These devices provide the same style and exactly the same type of usage experience that you’d expect from a disposable vape – right down to having the same dual-coil design that enables disposables to give you features like Pulse Mode. The only difference is that they’re refillable.
Do you love the convenience of disposable vapes but want to avoid the environmental baggage and lack of flexibility that comes with using a device that only lasts a few days? The Vaporesso Vibe might be the vape for you. Let’s dig in and learn more.

How Much Does the Vaporesso Vibe Cost?
- The Vaporesso Vibe costs $17.49 and comes with the device and one pod.
- The Vaporesso Vibe Nano Pro costs $20.99 and comes with the device and one pod.
Since both versions of the Vaporesso Vibe come with just one pod, adding an extra box of pods to your order is highly recommended because you never know when a vape might burn out unexpectedly. If this is your first refillable vape, you’ll also want to order a bottle of e-liquid in order to fill your device. If you’re new to vaping, you’ll probably have the best experience with nicotine salts.
Vaporesso Vibe vs. Vibe Nano Pro: What Are the Differences?
The Vaporesso Vibe and Vibe Nano Pro are basically the same in terms of their capabilities and features except for one key difference: The Vibe Nano Pro has a much larger battery capacity of 1,500 mAh, whereas the Vibe Nano has a capacity of 1,000 mAh. The Vibe Nano Pro also has a faster charging speed of up to 2 amps, enabling it to recharge fully in less than an hour.
If the extra battery capacity isn’t important to you, you can simply choose between the two devices based on which shape you prefer. The Vibe has a stick shape and is a little smaller overall. The Vibe Nano Pro has a mini-box shape and is a bit thicker to accommodate the increased battery capacity.
The Vibe and Vibe Nano Pro use the same pods and have the same output wattages. They also work in exactly the same way, with a single slider switch that’s used to perform all functions.

Vaporesso Vibe: Features
Works Like a Disposable Vape
The biggest feature of the Vaporesso Vibe is that it works just like a disposable vape – probably more so than any other refillable vape that’s ever come through the VapeJuice.com lab. Just like in popular vapes like the Geek Bar Pulse, a single switch adjusts both the vaping mode and the airflow. When you move the switch, the screen automatically updates to show the selected vaping mode – ECO for the single-coil mode and PWR for the dual-coil mode – and the current wattage. The switch also adjusts the device’s airflow, giving you a wider opening in PWR mode to encourage deeper inhales and bigger cloud formation.
The automatic puff counter is an additional feature of the Vaporesso Vibe that most disposable vapes don’t have, and you can reset it with the switch. Simply move the switch back and forth three times to reset the puff counter.
Dual-Coil Pod
The other aspect of the Vaporesso Vibe that strongly resembles a disposable vape is the fact that the pod has two coils – and like a disposable vape, the Vibe can operate with either one (ECO) or both (PWR) coils enabled. Depending on how you vape, you may actually find that the Vaporesso Vibe can completely revolutionize your vaping experience.
What’s so special about having a dual-coil pod?
- Do you like sweet e-liquids? If you use the single-coil ECO mode, you’ll find that the pods for the Vaporesso Vibe last twice as long as the pods for other vapes. That’s because, like modern disposable vapes, the Vibe toggles from one coil to the other on each puff. Since it’s dividing the work between the two coils, each coil takes twice as long to develop the gunk that causes it to taste burnt. If you’re currently using another refillable vape, this feature effectively means that your pods will last twice as long compared to what you’re using now.
- Do you like big clouds? Although we can bet that other manufacturers will be copying this feature soon, the Vaporesso Vibe is the only refillable pod system on the market right now with two coils that can work in tandem to provide incredible vapor production. You’d be hard-pressed to find another refillable vape that offers such big clouds in such a small package.
Two Pod Choices
Although the Vaporesso Vibe is designed to work the same as a disposable vape – and to be just as simple to use – it actually offers a bit more flexibility than a disposable because it has two different pods available: a 0.8-ohm pod and a 1.0-ohm pod. The kit includes a 1.0-ohm pod, and the 0.8-ohm pods are available separately. This choice matters because it gives you an additional way to customize your experience beyond simply changing the mode.
- Are you looking for a vaping experience that gives you bigger clouds and a more intense flavor? Choose the 0.8-ohm pod.
- Would you rather keep things a bit cooler and smoother? In that case, you’ll prefer the 1.0-ohm pod.
Vaporesso Vibe Review: Our Expert Perspective
We’re big fans of the Vaporesso Vibe because it takes the best aspects of disposable vapes and brings them to a refillable device that’s more economical and more environmentally friendly. The Vibe allows you to enjoy a much wider variety of flavors and nicotine strengths than you’d ever get with a disposable vape, but it has the same simple one-switch operation that you enjoy if you currently use a disposable device like the Geek Bar Pulse. Move the switch to one side for the single-coil mode and move it to the other side for the dual-coil mode – it’s that simple.
We also love the fact that the Vaporesso Vibe has finally brought dual-coil technology to the world of pod systems. It’s great for vapor production, and it’s even better for flavor chasers.
Everybody loves sweet vapes, but sucralose-laden e-liquid has one big issue in that it causes a vape coil to form gunk that eventually creates a burnt, smoky flavor. That’s not a big deal if you’re using a disposable vape because by the time the flavor gets to that point, the device is out of e-liquid anyway. With a refillable vape, though, it means that you need to replace the pod or coil – and that can become expensive very quickly.
When it’s used in ECO mode, the Vaporesso Vibe essentially makes each pod last twice as long as a standard vape pod because it switches from one coil to the other each time you puff on it. The coils take twice as long to develop sucralose residue, and that essentially cuts the cost of replacement pods in half compared to other vapes. That’s going to translate to huge savings over time, and that’s just one more reason why we think you’re going to be a huge fan of the Vaporesso Vibe.
