Have you ever used a two-part vape like the Off Stamp X-Cube and found yourself wishing that the battery in the pod could last a bit longer? It’s fun to have an ultra-tiny vape with a ton of e-liquid, but the battery doesn’t last long enough without the dock for a full day of vaping. The new Whatabar Linko is a new style of disposable vape that aims to fix that problem. It’s shaped just like the pod for a two-part vape, but all of the battery life that you need is right there in the device – no need to use a separate charging dock.
The Whatabar Linko looks and feels just as slim as a disposable vape pod, but its 850 mAh battery has more than enough juice for all-day vaping – and that’s not the only trick the Whatabar vape has up its sleeve. We’ll explore the details in this review.
View the Whatabar Linko now. Costing just $8.99, the Whatabar vape contains 18 ml of vape juice and lasts up to 40,000 puffs.
How Much Does the Whatabar Linko Cost?
The Whatabar Linko costs only $8.99 at the time of writing, making it one of the least expensive vapes on the market with such a high puff capacity. In this price range, you’re normally only going to find vapes that have lower puff counts or use older technology. That’s not the case with the Whatabar vape, which is completely modern and has the dual-coil performance and flavor quality that you expect from top disposable vapes.

Whatabar Linko Features
Slimmest High-Capacity Disposable Vape
We’re not joking when we say that the Whatabar vape is incredibly tiny for the amount of vape juice it contains and the battery life it offers. As we mentioned in the introduction for this review, it looks very much like the pod for the Off Stamp X-Cube despite having over eight times as much battery life. Here’s how they compare.
Whatabar Linko
- Dimensions: 108 mm long, 36 mm wide, 25 mm thick
- Battery: 850 mAh
- E-Liquid: 18 ml
- Dimensions: 94 mm long, 34 mm wide, 24.5 mm thick
- Battery: 100 mAh
- E-Liquid: 18 ml
As you can see, the main difference between the two is that the Whatabar vape is about a centimeter and a half longer. We think that’s a completely reasonable trade for over eight times the battery life, making it very likely that this device will convert a lot of people who currently use two-part vapes.
Exceptional Flavor Quality
The other thing about the Whatabar Linko that’s really notable is the fact that its flavor quality is truly exceptional. That comes down to the fact that it uses a clear tank for e-liquid storage, which isn’t just there to make the device look pretty. Most disposable vapes store their e-liquid in large sponges, which hamper airflow and reduce flavor quality. The Whatabar vape uses the same type of high-quality coil that you’d find in a good refillable vape kit, and the difference is really evident when you use it.
Using a disposable vape with a clear tank gives you better airflow and allows you to see your e-liquid supply without guessing, but those aren’t the only benefits. A tank also reduces waste and allows you to use almost every drop of vape juice in the device. With a disposable vape that store its e-liquid in a sponge, some of the vape juice is always wasted because gets stuck in the corners. The tank-based design of the Whatabar Linko allows it to deliver more puffs than a traditional vape with the same amount of e-liquid.
Whatabar Flavor Review
The Whatabar Linko has 15 flavors available at the time of writing, and the flavor selection includes just about every major flavor profile you could possibly want except tobacco. It features plenty of fruit profiles along with fruit and ice, candy, dessert and even plain mint. Here’s what’s available.
| Flavor | Review |
|---|---|
| Baja Splash | Citrus soda with added notes of mixed tropical fruits. This is the Whatabar flavor that most closely resembles a real beverage. |
| Blackberry Cherry | Slightly tart blackberry layered over a rich and sweet cherry base. A great option if you’re looking for a fruity flavor that isn’t too complicated. |
| Blue Rancher | Blue raspberry hard candy, just like a certain rectangle-shaped brand with a very similar name. |
| Blue Raspberry Ice | Blue raspberry and menthol. The classic “blue razz slush” flavor, done in Whatabar’s way. |
| Cool Mint | Crisp, chilly menthol blended with a smooth mint note. Nice and cold with just a touch of sweetness. |
| Grape Ice | Tastes like rich grape juice poured over ice, with a bit of a candy-like sweet finish. |
| Miami Mint | Cold mint/menthol flavor combined with a blend of citrus notes. Miami Mint vapes are extremely popular among menthol lovers, and this is a very safe pick if you like cold flavor profiles. |
| Sour Apple Ice | Green apple and menthol with a definite “sour apple candy” vibe. The coldness takes this flavor profile to the next level. |
| Sour Watermelon Gummy | Like a gummy watermelon slice with a coating of sour powder on the outside. This might be the most realistic candy Whatabar flavor. |
| Strawberry Banana | Classic fruit mix. If the combination of strawberry and banana says “freshly blended fruit smoothie” to you, you’re going to love this flavor. |
| Strawberry Cheesecake | The best dessert option in the Whatabar flavor lineup. Like a rich, sweet slice of cheesecake with a drizzle of strawberry syrup on top. |
| Strawberry Ice | Your favorite summer fruit, combined with a touch of chilly menthol. A perfect option when you need a cool flavor to help you beat the heat. |
| Watermelon Ice | Sweet watermelon and chilly menthol, with a bit of a candy touch. Tastes almost like a piece of watermelon candy that’s been in the refrigerator for a while. |
| White Gummy | Pineapple-flavored white gummy. A well-executed white gummy flavor always tastes surprisingly realistic, so this is a great option if you have a sweet tooth. |
| White Peach Raspberry | Sweet, juicy peach blended with complex raspberry. This flavor provides a nicely balanced blend of sweet and tart elements. |
Having trouble deciding which Whatabar flavor you should choose first? We’ve found that the Whatabar brand truly excels when it comes to creating tasty candy flavors. Try White Gummy if you enjoy a candy vape with plenty of sweetness. If you prefer something with a little more tartness, Sour Apple Ice is our top pick for you.
Whatabar Link Review: Our Expert Perspective
The marketplace for disposable vapes is really crowded these days. With new devices coming out all the time, it’s getting harder and harder for a new brand to stand out and get noticed. That leads some people to just stick with the brands they already know. The Whatabar Linko does so many things right, though, that it really deserves to become one of those go-to vapes.
If you like a vape that delivers a lot of puffs, you’ll definitely get that here because the Whatabar vape contains 18 ml of vape juice and uses its e-liquid very efficiently thanks to the tank-based design. It’s also shockingly slim and portable for a high-capacity device; it looks like the pod for a two-part vape but has enough battery capacity to last all day. Wrap those things up in a package that costs just $8.99, and the Whatabar vape looks like a big winner to us.
