This review is read from the specs. Every figure below is Geek Bar's own rating as our catalog lists it, and nothing here was bench-tested or timed in hand. What a review like this can do is set the numbers side by side, say what each one means for the way you use the device, and tell you where the Geek Bar Pulse X 25K sits against the other Geek Bars we list.

Flavor
We list 42 flavors, a menu second only to the Pulse 15K's among the Geek Bars we carry. That is the first reason the Pulse X stays on the counter after newer devices have arrived: whatever you liked on the Pulse 15K, there is likely a name here that matches it. Nothing in this section is a tasting note. The name is the promise, and a name that carries Ice says ice.
The dual mesh coil is the part that turns e-liquid into vapor, and Geek Bar fits the same coil type across most of its current range. A coil cannot be judged from a spec sheet, so this review says only that it is the same part most of its siblings carry.
Battery and Charging
The 820mAh cell charges over USB-C. Set against an 18 mL of e-liquid, that means you will charge the device more than once across its life, which is true of every rechargeable disposable in this class. The screen is what makes that painless, because you can see the charge before you leave the house rather than finding out when it blinks.
For comparison, the Pulse 15K carries 650mAh for its 16 mL, and the Pulse X 2 50K carries 1000mAh for its 18 mL. The Pulse X sits between them in battery, which is where it sits in everything else.
Draw and Airflow
The airflow is adjustable, so you can tighten the draw toward a close pull or open it toward a looser one without changing device. That is the single control most people use on a Geek Bar, and it is worth setting before the first draw rather than after. The Pulse 15K and the Pulse X 2 both carry the same adjustable airflow, so a customer moving between them keeps the habit.
Build and Screen
The screen reads out what the device knows about itself, and on a disposable that is the one piece of information that matters daily: how much charge is left. It is the feature the current Geek Bar range is known for on our counter, and the Pulse X and the Pulse 15K arrived in our catalog together carrying one.
The body is a one-piece sealed disposable. There is no pod to swap and nothing to refill, which is the trade: the Clio Platinum 50K kit keeps a body and swaps pods, while the Pulse X is finished when the e-liquid is.
Where It Sits in the Range
On DirectVape today the Geek Bar range runs from the Pulse 15K at 15,000 puffs, through the Pulse X at 25,000, to a cluster at 50,000 and above: the Pulse X 2 at 50,000 from 18 mL, the Ice Prince at 50,000 from 30 mL, the Clio Platinum kit at 50,000 from 16 mL, and the Mate 60K kit at 60,000 from 15 mL. The Pulse X is the middle of that ladder and the device with the most flavors.
The Pulse X 2 is the direct successor: same 18 mL of e-liquid, double the rated puffs, a larger 1000mAh battery, the same coil type, airflow and screen. The Pulse X earns its place beside it on menu width and on being the known quantity.
Heads up: the 820mAh battery is the smallest among the Geek Bars named in this post other than the Pulse 15K, so plan to charge it, and the Pulse X 2 holds the same e-liquid capacity behind a bigger cell.
The Verdict
Pick it if you want the widest Geek Bar flavor menu we list, a screen, adjustable airflow and a 25,000-puff rating in a one-piece device. Skip it if you want the largest rating per purchase, because the Pulse X 2 doubles the puff count on the same e-liquid capacity, or if you want a body you keep, because the Clio Platinum kit is built for that.
