Intro
The Caliburn range of pod vapes are much loved by vapers all over the world and I count myself as one of them. The original Calibrun arrived and delivered superior flavour and coils which last longer than the competition. The Caliburn A series has been designed to be super friendly for beginners with no settings to worry about and pods that you dispose of when they're finished. G series (and the Caliburn X) are essentially the same device but the coils in the pods are replaceable, which helps reduce long term cost.
Now the Caliburn X is here and it comes packed with new features.
Before we get excited about those lets just cover off the Caliburn X specification:

UWell Caliburn X Kit includes:
1 x UWell Caliburn X device

1 x Type-C cable
1 x User Manual
UWell Caliburn X New Features:
The first thing that strikes you when you get the Caliburn X out of the packaging is the difference in sizes to previous versions. It's wider and chunkier, which is why it can include a bigger capacity battery (850mAh) and a new OLED screen. The screen is the first for any Caliburn and it displays wattage (which is adjustable), voltage, resistance and puff count. All this is operated using the multi function firing button which does the following:
1 click = fires
2 clicks = locks the firing button (can still be draw activated)
3 clicks = wattage adjustment mode activated (additional presses increase wattage, leave when happy with wattage to set)
4 clicks = reset puff count
5 clicks = turns on and off
Locking the fire button can be extremely useful if your vape spends lots of time in your pocket or bag, to protect against unwanted firing. A neat feature for sure. Wattage adjustment for those who like to adjust their vape to get the perfect vaping experience.
On the Caliburn G2 the airflow was adjustable via a small adjustable airflow wheel contained on the side of the pod. While this was a very effective method for adjusting airflow it did require you to remove the pod. Caliburn X also has adjustable airflow but this time the slot is on the side of the device. While this is a welcome new feature the slider is much too loose and will likely adjust itself if you put it in a bag or a pocket.
However the airflow adjustment actually provides a perfectly balanced experience depending on what you want. Fully closed you get a warm restricted MTL experience and when fully open a pleasant restricted direct lung.
Two important things remain on the Caliburn X and these two things alone make it the top contender for the best pod system currently available. First up we have the UN2 Meshed-H coils (which were also featured on the Calburn G2). They are replaceable which helps cut down on the cost and they last so much longer than other coils thanks to PRO-Focs technology. You get two in the kit, a 0.8 Ohm (preinstalled) and a 1.2 Ohm. The 0.8 Ohm coil produces a slightly warmer vape with denser, more flavorful clouds. The 1.2 Ohm coil is designed for maximum life span and we can promise you you'll be amazed how long they last.
Nobody likes a leaking vape. UWell were the first manufacturer of pod systems to introduce this method of top fil. You simply snap off the top cap to reveal the fill slot. You don't even need to take out the pod, snap off, refill, snap on. Because of this fill system leaking is minimal to none depending how much care and attention you take when refilling. Once you've had a pod system that refills like this you won't want any other method.
Look and Feel
UWell has a nice habit of using beautiful colors for their vapes. Caliburn X is no different with 6 color options to choose from, I liked the Ink Blue color so decided to get that. The finish is matte and doesn't show any figure prints which is always a good thing. The firing button has diagonal embossed lines across it which make it easy to find with your finger. Caliburn X has a very nice weight to it and feels nice in the hand.
The mouthpiece is slightly larger than the Caliburn G2 but not so much that it's unpleasant. The picture below shows the Caliburn G2 mouthpiece on the left and the Caliburn X on the right.
The screen while small displays all your need to know information which you can see below.
PROs
Elegant looks
Amazing flavor
Long coil lifespan
Replaceable coils
Top fill
Doesn't leak
Charges quickly
CONs
Slightly pricey
Airflow adjuster too loose
Minimum vape juice levels very high on the pod
Conclusion
Having used and still using the excellent Caliburn G (and Caliburn KOKO before that) for years I've been waiting for it to get an upgrade. Now it's here and I couldn't be happier. All the things that were so good about previous versions are still present in the Caliburn X. Now you get a screen with a puff counter and adjustable wattage. Flavor is amazing, build quality second to none and it vapes so good.
