GEEK BAR PULSE X vs STLTH TITAN MAX: The Screen vs. The Puff Count
Last updated: July 2026 | New City Vapes Comparison Engine
The Pulse X's signature feature isn't its puff count — at 25,000, it's roughly half the TITAN MAX's 50,000. It's the screen: independent reviews consistently call out the Pulse X's 3D curved LED display as the first of its kind on a disposable vape, wrapping battery, e-liquid, and mode animations around a curved frame. That's a genuinely different kind of premium than "more puffs," and it's the real reason to consider the Pulse X over a higher-capacity device.
Quick answer: if raw longevity is what you're optimizing for, the TITAN MAX wins by a wide margin — double the puffs. If you specifically want the standout hardware feature and a device with two genuinely different output modes rather than one fixed setting, the Pulse X is worth the trade-off, especially if you replace devices often enough that 25,000 puffs is plenty.

Half the Puffs, But a Genuinely Different Screen
The headline gap here is straightforward: the TITAN MAX's 50,000 puffs is roughly double the Pulse X's 25,000 in Regular mode, and the Pulse X's own Pulse mode (its more intense setting) drops that further to 15,000. If puff count is the only thing you're optimizing for, this isn't a close comparison.
What the Pulse X brings instead is a feature the TITAN MAX simply doesn't have: a 3D curved LED screen that multiple independent reviews describe as a first for the disposable vape category — not a flat display, but one that wraps animations, battery status, and e-liquid level around the curve of the device itself. Reviewers consistently note it as the standout, immediately noticeable feature out of the box, well before they get into puff count or flavour.
If you replace your device often enough that 25,000 puffs comfortably covers your usage, and you want the most distinctive hardware in this comparison, the Pulse X's screen and dual-mode system are worth it. If you want your device to simply last as long as possible, the TITAN MAX's puff count isn't close.
A Spec Worth Double-Checking Before You Buy
Independent reviews of the Pulse X are unusually consistent on one point that doesn't match New City's own product listing: multiple third-party sources across several years of reviews cite an 18 mL e-liquid capacity, not the 20 mL currently listed on New City's product page. The battery figure also varies by source — some reviews cite 700mAh, others 820mAh, against New City's listed 850mAh — which likely reflects different hardware revisions of the Pulse X being reviewed over time rather than one figure simply being wrong. Worth confirming against your current supplier spec sheet before this page goes live, since the mL figure in particular is repeated closely enough across independent sources that it's more likely accurate than New City's listing.
Pros & Cons
GEEK BAR PULSE X
Why buy it:
The 3D curved LED screen — a genuinely distinctive feature, not just a spec-sheet bullet
Two real output modes: Regular for longevity, Pulse for intensity
Dual mesh coil that independent reviews describe as holding flavour well without the burnt taste common in cheaper disposables
Trade-offs:
Roughly half the TITAN MAX's puff count, less if you spend time in Pulse mode
Slightly more expensive at $35.75
Published e-liquid capacity is inconsistent between New City's listing and independent reviews — worth verifying
STLTH TITAN MAX
Why buy it:
Trade-offs:
No standout display feature — a standard TFT screen, not the Pulse X's curved design
Only one output mode, with no equivalent to Pulse X's dual-mode flexibility
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Pulse X's screen actually different from a normal disposable display, or is that just marketing? It's a genuine hardware difference — independent reviews consistently describe it as the first curved 3D LED screen on a disposable vape, distinct from the flat displays (including the TITAN MAX's) used across most of the category.
Why does the Pulse X's e-liquid capacity differ between sources? New City's own listing states 20 mL, but multiple independent reviews spanning different points in the Pulse X's release consistently cite 18 mL. This may reflect a hardware revision rather than an outright error, but it's worth confirming against current supplier specs.
Which lasts longer in real-world use? The TITAN MAX, by a wide margin — even the Pulse X's Regular mode tops out at half the TITAN MAX's puff count, and Pulse mode narrows that further.
Does the Pulse X have adjustable airflow? Yes, per both New City's listing and independent reviews — the Pulse X pairs its dual output modes with adjustable airflow, unlike some competitors in this category where airflow is tied entirely to mode selection.
