As the Geekvape Aegis lineup continues to grow, there are likely plenty of people who are curious about the differences between all the different devices. I thought it might be helpful to put together a brief reference guide (you might even call it a buyer’s guide) for our readers.

It’s important to note that I don’t personally own most of these mods. I simply pulled together the info from various sources across the internet. If I made any mistakes or failed to mention something important, I certainly welcome your corrections down in the comments section. I’m also planning on doing a similar post for the entire Lost Vape Orion lineup. If anyone would be willing to help with that, I would greatly appreciate it! Email: [email protected]
The list below covers all the basic info (features, specs, and differences) for every Geekvape Aegis device currently on the market. There are a few things that EVERY Aegis has in common; to avoid repeating myself, let’s get those out of the way first.
PROS:
- These mods are all IP67 rated waterproof, shockproof, and dustproof. That’s the key feature of this line, so you can expect the same amount of resilience and durability across the board.
- The chipsets are all variations of the Geekvape AS Chipset, which means you’ll get most of the same features and performance from each device. Obviously, there are some exceptions. For example, the Aegis X has a large color screen and a different interface, so navigating the menu will be a bit different. Also, the Aegis Boost is a pod system, so they’ve omitted some of the advanced options for that chipset.
CONS:
- One of the most recognized design features of the Aegis line is the rubberized finish. Although it’s especially durable, that coating is notorious for collecting dust/lint, which may bother some users.
- The screens have a reputation for scratching easily. I’m only referring to light hairline scratches on the surface of the screen, nothing terribly obvious.
- Almost every Aegis is slightly wider, thicker, and heavier than other devices in their class. It’s a tradeoff: durability in exchange for portability.

My name is Jeremy and I’ve been writing for VAPE.DEALS since early 2016. Digging for deals is what I do! I’m a former 15-year smoker and will always be grateful that I found vaping when I did. This site played a key role in my journey. It kept me interested and excited about vaping during those first crucial months away from cigarettes. Now, my ambition is to pass along that excitement to others; to help people make the switch and never return to combustible cigarettes. This industry is important and I feel truly blessed to be a part of it. Please feel free to reach out to me if you ever have any questions: [email protected]
