NEXA PIX 35K Review — Pocket-Sized Performance with 35,000 Puffs

Quick Verdict

The NEXA PIX 35K is the smallest 35,000-puff disposable I've tested — and one of the most reliable. It inherits the Ultra II's Juicy Lock sealed activation and Crystal Tank transparency in a package that genuinely fits in your palm. The flavor output from its 1.0Ω dual mesh coils is slightly cooler and cleaner than the Ultra II, which actually benefits mint and citrus profiles. At $22.99, it's priced below most 25K competitors. The PIX doesn't try to be a flagship — it just delivers solid performance in a smaller body.

Score: 8.5 / 10

What Is the NEXA PIX 35K?

The PIX is NEXA's compact offering — positioned between the flagship Ultra II 50K and the Flex pod system. Like the Ultra II, it uses a two-part sealed design where the e-liquid pod clips onto the battery unit at first use. The total capacity is 16mL split across a transparent Crystal Tank (11mL) and a cotton storage section (5mL). NEXA calls it the "Pocket Pixie" — and for once, the marketing nickname is accurate. At 87.9mm × 52.6mm × 24.9mm, it's visibly smaller than every 35K device in our current inventory.

The PIX launched in mid-2025 as a follow-up to the Ultra 50K, and it was actually the first NEXA device to introduce the Juicy Lock snap-together system that later carried over to the Ultra II.

Design & Build

The PIX shares the Ultra II's design language — rounded corners, translucent mouthpiece, color-coded body per flavor — but everything is scaled down. At 83g, it's 6g lighter than the Ultra II. The form factor is genuinely pocketable in a way that most 35K devices claim but don't deliver.

The Crystal Tank section is more prominent on the PIX proportionally — the transparent segment occupies a larger percentage of the visible body. Graduation marks on the tank make e-liquid tracking precise. The HD mini display is smaller than the Ultra II's curved screen but shows the same essential information: battery percentage and current mode.

The airflow slider sits on the bottom alongside the USB-C port. Adjustment range is comparable to the Ultra II — tight MTL at one end, restricted RDTL at the other. The slider moves with a satisfying resistance that prevents accidental changes in your pocket.

Performance

Flavor

The PIX runs its dual mesh coils at 1.0Ω — slightly higher resistance than the Ultra II's 0.9Ω. In practice, this means a marginally cooler vape that lets menthol and citrus top notes come through more clearly. I tested Citrus Rush, Velvet Latte, and Miami Mint — all three benefited from the cooler coil temperature. Citrus Rush in particular delivered a fizzy, zesty character that would have been partially flattened by a warmer coil.

The dual-reservoir design (11mL visible tank + 5mL cotton) performs identically to the Ultra II's system. The PIX continues producing consistent flavor well past when the Crystal Tank looks nearly empty. Multiple independent reviews have confirmed that the "seemingly empty" PIX keeps going for hours of additional vape time.

Battery & Charging

The 800mAh battery is smaller than the Ultra II's 900mAh, but the PIX draws less power per puff due to its higher-resistance coil — so battery life per session is comparable. Full charge takes about 40–60 minutes via USB-C. The emergency charge performance mirrors the Ultra II: a brief one-minute charge yields enough power for 100+ puffs.

Modes

Normal mode (35K puffs) and Turbo mode (20K puffs) operate the same way as the Ultra II — 3 quick button presses to toggle. Turbo mode boosts vapor density and sweetness at the cost of puff count. Normal mode is the better default for the PIX's flavor profile, which leans into clarity and precision rather than raw cloud output.

Get the PIX if: portability is your top priority, you prefer mint/citrus/coffee flavors, or you want the PIX-exclusive Velvet Latte or Citrus Rush.

Get the Ultra II if: you want maximum puffs per dollar, prefer berry/sweet fruit profiles, or don't mind the slightly larger body for longer lifespan.

Both devices share the Crystal Tank and Juicy Lock system. Neither is a bad choice. For the complete flavor comparison, see our NEXA Flavors Guide.

Who Should Buy the NEXA PIX 35K?

  • On-the-go vapers: The PIX is the smallest 35K device available. It slips into a front pocket without the rectangular bulge most disposables create.
  • Mint and citrus lovers: The cooler 1.0Ω coil genuinely serves these flavor categories better than the Ultra II's warmer setup.
  • Budget-conscious buyers: At $22.99, the PIX costs less than most 25K devices — and delivers 35K puffs.
  • Velvet Latte fans: If you want NEXA's only coffee flavor, the PIX is your only option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the NEXA PIX better than the Ultra II?

Neither is objectively better — they're optimized for different priorities. The PIX wins on portability and mint/citrus flavor delivery. The Ultra II wins on puff count, value-per-puff, and berry/sweet profiles. Both share the same Crystal Tank and Juicy Lock technology.

How long does the NEXA PIX 35K last?

At 300–400 puffs per day (average use), the PIX lasts roughly 2.5–3 months in Normal mode. Turbo mode cuts that to about 6–7 weeks. The dual-reservoir system means the device continues delivering flavor past when the Crystal Tank appears empty.

What does the NEXA PIX weigh?

83 grams — lighter than most smartphones and 6g lighter than the Ultra II. The compact dimensions (87.9mm × 52.6mm × 24.9mm) make it the smallest device in the 35K puff category.

Can you refill the NEXA PIX?

No. The PIX is a closed-system disposable. The e-liquid tank is sealed and cannot be opened or refilled. When it's empty, you replace the entire device. For a refill-style experience within the NEXA ecosystem, consider the NEXA Flex, which uses swappable pre-filled pods on a reusable battery. See our NEXA Vape Refill Guide for details.
