Crave Vape Reviews: Crave Max 2500, Crave Max Beast 4500 & More

Crave has a loud footprint in the disposable lane. The lineup leans on puff-count marketing. It also leans on flavor names that tell a story. I wanted to see what stayed true after the first day.

I ran the same workflow I use for disposables. I tracked draw feel, flavor drift, and mouthpiece mess. I also logged battery behavior in normal pockets-and-breaks use. Marcus Reed stressed devices with longer sessions. Jamal Davis carried them like daily tools.

Dr. Adrian Walker reviewed language on risk and labeling. He also kept us away from casual safety claims. The point stayed simple. This was adult-only product evaluation in daily scenarios.

Product Overview

Testing Team Takeaways

I kept coming back to draw consistency. Crave’s better units held the same pull for days. That matters when a disposable becomes a default. I also watched condensation. A few models needed more wipe-downs. I noticed it first at the lip line. Then I felt it as a faint slickness. I wrote it down every time.

Marcus pushed heat behavior. He used longer pulls. He also stayed on repeat sessions. When output climbed, he watched for hot spots near the shell. His notes stayed blunt. “If it warms up fast, I stop trusting it.” He liked the Turbo’s stability more than the Beast. He also called out when flavor stayed dense late.

Jamal treated these like pocket tools. He tossed one into a jacket. He also kept one in a gym bag. He cared about mouthpiece comfort. He also cared about accidental activation risk. “If I can forget it’s there, it’s doing its job.” He preferred slimmer bodies. He liked the X for that feel, even with the price bump.

Dr. Adrian Walker focused on framing. He pushed back on casual “safer” language. He also pointed at nicotine dependence risk. He reminded us to keep symptoms talk as subjective reports. He added one steady note. Long-term cough or chest pain belongs in a clinic. Device switching does not replace care.

Crave vape Vapes Comparison Chart

What We Tested and How We Tested It

We scored disposables by repeatable use checks. Each device rotated through short breaks, longer sessions, and pocket carry. I tracked draw activation, output stability, and mouthpiece mess. Marcus focused on stress use. Jamal focused on mobility use.

Flavor accuracy came from repeated A-B pulls. We compared the first ten draws to later draws. We also watched sweetness creep. Throat hit stayed a subjective feel note. It never turned into advice.

Vapor production came from visible plume and feel of density. Airflow got scored by smoothness and resistance consistency. Battery life came from practical use days, not lab drain curves. Charging behavior applied only where a device supports charging.

Leak and condensation control came from mouthpiece checks. We also checked pocket lint adhesion. Build quality came from shell creak, seam tightness, and port fit. Ease of use came from how little thought it demanded. Portability came from pocket comfort and daily abuse.

Every observation stayed usage-based. None of it replaces medical care. Nicotine carries dependence risk. Adult-only framing stays non-negotiable.

Crave vape Vapes Our Testing Experience

Crave Max 2500

Our testing experience

I treated the Crave Max 2500 like a baseline. It went into my pocket for errands. It also sat on my desk for breaks. Draw activation stayed reliable. I rarely saw misfires. That mattered more than hype.

The shell felt sturdy. The mouthpiece stayed comfortable. Condensation showed up, though. It was minor. A quick wipe fixed it. Jamal called it the “no-drama carry.” He meant the shape. He also meant the weight. “This is the one I don’t baby,” he said, after a week of pockets.

Marcus did not love the ceiling. He wanted more output. Still, he respected the consistency. “It doesn’t collapse after a heavy hour,” he said, after a longer session stretch. I noticed a similar thing. The draw did not get airy too fast.

The weakness was life span. It is a finite disposable. When the flavor started fading, it faded fast. That became the practical edge. It works best for adults who want simple use. It fits MTL-leaning habits. It also fits people who hate fiddling.

Device listing shows 2500 puffs with a 1300 mAh battery and 6.5 mL e-liquid.

Draw experience and flavors

I focused on five flavors that matched common buying patterns. I also used them in the same daily rhythm. Short pulls at work breaks came first. Longer pulls happened at night.

Clear felt straightforward. The inhale stayed light. The throat feel stayed medium. The exhale carried a faint sweetness, more like a base note. I used it as a calibration flavor. It made later flavors easier to judge. Jamal liked it for “no aftertaste.” “It clears out fast,” he said, after a commute run.

Blue Razz Ice hit brighter. On inhale, it landed as candy tang. The cooling felt clean at first. After repeated pulls, the cool note pushed forward. I started taking shorter pulls. The flavor stayed accurate. It did not turn perfumey. Marcus said it “kept shape.” “It doesn’t smear into sugar water,” he noted.

Grape Ice leaned darker. The inhale started like purple candy. The mid-draw felt thicker. The cooling came late. That made the throat feel firmer. I noticed a mild dryness after long strings. It was not harsh. It was “dry” in a texture sense. Jamal took fewer pulls with it. “This is a couch flavor,” he said, meaning slower use.

Guava Ice surprised me. The inhale felt tropical, with a soft floral edge. The guava note stayed in the center. Sweetness rose on the exhale. Cooling stayed moderate. I wrote “rounded” twice in my notes. Marcus still wanted more punch. Yet he said it stayed stable under longer sessions. “It doesn’t flip weird,” he said.

Classic Tobacco was the reality check. It landed warm. The draw felt slightly denser. The taste stayed closer to sweet tobacco than ash. It did not try to mimic smoke. It kept a light caramel edge. Dr. Walker’s framing mattered here. Tobacco flavors can cue “safer” thinking in some users. That is perception, not evidence. We kept the language flat.

Best draw experience in this set came from Guava Ice. Blue Razz Ice followed close. Clear stayed best for palate reset.

Crave Max Beast 4500

Our testing experience

The Max Beast sat in the “mid-life” pocket. It promised more runway. I treated it as a step-up from the Max. It lived in the same carry routine. The difference showed in output feel.

Draw activation stayed responsive. The pull felt slightly looser than the Max. Vapor came thicker. Flavor hit earlier in the draw. Marcus liked that. He pushed longer sessions. He watched heat. The body warmed up after repeat pulls. It never hit a scary temperature in our use. Still, he flagged it. “It’s fine, but I watch it,” he said, after a long evening run.

Jamal liked the grip feel. He also liked that it did not feel flimsy. He called it “pocket-sturdy.” “I can throw it in a pocket,” he said, after a gym day. The mouthpiece stayed comfortable. Condensation appeared more often than the Max. Wipe-downs became normal.

The bigger issue was spec clarity. The brand category page sells it as a 4500 puff disposable. Other details vary across sellers. That is not a functional failure. It is a buyer clarity problem. Dr. Walker’s lens matters there. Label clarity is part of safer behavior. Users should not guess nicotine content or device features.

This device fits adults who want a firmer feel. It also fits people who want more vapor without jumping to very large bodies.

Brand listing calls it a 4500 puff disposable.

Draw experience and flavors

I picked six flavors from the Beast lineup shown on the brand page. Each one ran through morning pulls, then evening pulls. Marcus also took them outdoors. Wind makes weak devices show their limits.

Black Ice hit cold first. The inhale felt menthol-forward. The dark note stayed behind it. The cooling sat in the throat longer. I shortened pulls. The flavor stayed sharp. It can fatigue faster than fruit blends. Marcus liked it anyway. “It stays bold under long pulls,” he said.

Blue Razz Ice leaned louder than the Max version. The inhale tasted brighter. The exhale felt colder. The mid-note stayed candy. It did not go perfumey. Jamal called it “clean candy.” “It doesn’t taste like spray,” he said.

Blow Pop carried a sweet shell flavor. The inhale started like hard candy. A soft fruit note followed. It felt playful, but it also felt dense. That density can become too sweet after a while. I used it in short bursts. Marcus did longer sessions and called it “sticky.” “I need water with it,” he said.

Banana Taffy Freeze was the odd one. The banana note came creamy. The taffy note followed as a buttery sweetness. Cooling stayed moderate. The throat feel stayed soft. It worked best as a slow flavor. Jamal liked it for car rides. “This one doesn’t punch me,” he said.

Blackberry Blueberry sat in the middle ground. The inhale led with darker berry. The exhale brought a jammy sweetness. Cooling stayed low. That gave it a warmer feel. It held up over repeated pulls. I wrote “balanced” in my notes. Marcus called it “stable.” “No burnt sugar vibe,” he said.

Bubble Frost hit like gum with a cold edge. The inhale carried bubblegum sweetness. Cooling followed fast. It can feel artificial, depending on tolerance. Jamal liked it in small doses. “Two pulls is enough,” he said, then he put it away.

Best draw experience came from Blackberry Blueberry. Blue Razz Ice stayed second. Banana Taffy Freeze worked for slow sessions.

Crave Turbo 20k

Our testing experience

The Turbo 20k changed how we used the lineup. It stayed on desks longer. It also stayed in bags longer. That is what a large capacity device does.

I tested lock and unlock behavior early. The brand description calls out a click to unlock, then lock again. That feature matters in pockets. Jamal liked it for car storage. “I don’t want it firing in a console,” he said, after a week of commuting. The device also claims normal mode plus turbo mode. Marcus leaned into that. He wanted to see stability under higher output.

In normal mode feel, the draw stayed smooth. Vapor came dense. The throat feel stayed medium-firm. In turbo feel, the draw felt more aggressive. The vapor thickened. Flavor also got louder. Heat rose faster during long sessions. Marcus watched the shell. He paused when warmth built up. “I get what it’s doing,” he said, “but I won’t chain it.”

Condensation required attention. A device that pushes output can push more moisture. I wiped the mouthpiece more often. It never turned into dripping leaks. It stayed surface-level. Still, it was a pattern.

The brand description states up to 20,000 puffs, plus 20 mL prefilled e-liquid. That scale matched our practical sense. It lasted. It also kept flavor longer than smaller units.

This device fits adults who want long runs. It fits heavy daily routines. It also fits people who like a denser draw feel.

Retailer listings describe dual mesh coil, adjustable wattage, plus normal and turbo mode power points.

Draw experience and flavors

I tested seven flavors across different parts of the day. I also tested them after palate reset with Clear pulls. That kept notes cleaner.

Berry Pop opened with bright fruit candy. The inhale felt sweet. A faint tart edge followed. The exhale stayed syrupy. In normal mode feel, it stayed smooth. In turbo feel, sweetness got thicker. Marcus liked the turbo hits. “It finally tastes like the label,” he said, after switching modes.

Blow Pop leaned closer to lollipop shell. The inhale started sweet. Then a soft fruit note spread across the tongue. The throat feel stayed firm in turbo. I noticed it more after repeated pulls. Jamal backed off and used shorter hits. “It’s good, but it stacks,” he said, meaning sweetness buildup.

Blue Breeze tasted like blue slush. The inhale carried a chilled candy note. The exhale left a cold finish. It stayed crisp, but it can feel drying after a long string. Marcus used it outdoors and liked the density. “It cuts through wind,” he said, after a short walk.

Fizzy Pop delivered a soda-like note. The inhale felt bright. The mid-draw gave a “sparkle” impression, more from flavor mix than actual fizz. It can read artificial to some users. Jamal liked it in small bursts. “Two pulls, then I’m good,” he said, then he switched devices.

Go Nanas ran creamy banana forward. It felt softer than candy profiles. The inhale stayed smooth. The exhale carried a taffy sweetness. In turbo feel, it became heavier. I used it in normal feel more often. Marcus said it held up in longer sessions. “It doesn’t turn burnt sweet,” he noted.

Mango Dipz hit rich mango first. The inhale felt juicy. The exhale carried a candy coating vibe. It stayed satisfying early. Later, sweetness started to feel thick. I wrote “palate fatigue” in my notes. Jamal rotated away from it faster. “This is a weekend flavor,” he said, meaning occasional use.

Miami Mint gave a cooler, cleaner profile. The inhale carried mint leaf style flavor. Cooling stayed medium, not icy. The exhale cleared fast. It became my reset flavor inside the Turbo line. Marcus called it “stable.” “I can chain it more,” he said, then he still watched warmth.

Best draw experience came from Berry Pop in normal feel. Miami Mint stayed best for repeat sessions. Blue Breeze felt best outdoors.

Crave X Ultra Slim 40k 25k

Our testing experience

The Crave X felt like a gadget. It did not feel like a plain stick. The body stayed slim. The screen idea changed how Jamal carried it. He liked “flat” shapes. He also liked visible status. “I can glance, then move on,” he said, during commuting weeks.

The brand description highlights a 3D curved screen plus a control slider. It also states two modes. Normal mode is framed as 40,000 puffs. Pulse mode is framed as 25,000 puffs. Those are marketing targets, yet the concept matters. It tells you the device is built around control.

I used the slider as a behavior cue. It made me slow down. It also made me pay attention to draw feel. In normal feel, the device stayed smooth. In pulse feel, the draw felt “louder.” Vapor also felt denser. Marcus pushed pulse feel during heavy sessions. He watched heat. He also watched flavor drift. “It holds better than I expected,” he said, after repeated use days.

Condensation stayed manageable. It behaved closer to the Turbo than the Max. That makes sense. More output tends to mean more moisture. I wiped the mouthpiece more often than with the Max.

Dr. Walker’s lens focused on labeling. The page clearly warns nicotine is addictive. It also lists nicotine strengths as 3% and 5%. Clear framing matters. It reduces guesswork.

This device fits adults who like slim carry. It also fits people who want a “controlled” feel. Price can push it into a treat purchase.

Brand product page references the screen, the modes, the puff targets, plus nicotine strengths.

Draw experience and flavors

I chose six flavors listed on the Crave X product page. I also ran them in the same mode pattern. Normal feel came first. Pulse feel came later for comparison.

Black Ice in the X line felt colder than the Max version. The inhale hit menthol fast. The exhale carried a darker edge. It stayed clean, yet it can sharpen the throat feel. Marcus liked it in pulse feel. “That’s the hit I want,” he said, after a long session. I used it in short pulls to avoid dryness.

Boston Mint felt smoother. The inhale tasted like sweet mint. Cooling stayed moderate. The exhale cleared faster than icy blends. Jamal liked it for quick pulls. “No lingering funk,” he said, after switching back and forth.

Blue Razz Ice stayed bright. The inhale felt like candy tang. The exhale cooled the back of the throat. In pulse feel, sweetness thickened. I noticed faster palate fatigue. Normal feel stayed more balanced.

Grape Gummy Ice tasted like chewy candy. The inhale carried grape. The mid-draw brought gummy sweetness. Cooling came late. It left a sticky impression in the mouth. Jamal liked it in small bursts. “This is a two-hit flavor,” he said, then he put it away.

Peach Ice leaned juicy. The inhale felt soft. Peach sweetness sat in the middle. Cooling stayed light. It worked well in normal feel. In pulse feel, sweetness climbed. I wrote “peach rings” in my notes. Marcus said it stayed stable. “It doesn’t thin out,” he noted.

Bubble Frost hit as bubblegum candy with cooling. The inhale carried strong sweetness. Cooling followed quickly. It can feel artificial for some adults. I rotated it between mint pulls. That kept it enjoyable.

Best draw experience came from Boston Mint for repeat sessions. Peach Ice stayed best for relaxed pulls. Blue Razz Ice stayed best when I wanted a sharper profile.

Crave x KadoBar 6000

Our testing experience

This one felt like a simpler daily tool. The body stayed compact. The draw stayed familiar. Jamal grabbed it more often than I expected. He liked the grab-and-go nature. “It sits like a pen,” he said, after a week of carrying it.

I used it in short sessions. It fit work breaks well. It also fit errands. Draw activation stayed consistent. Output stayed medium. That kept it comfortable for casual patterns. Marcus wanted more punch. Still, he respected the clean feel. “It’s not trying to be a fog machine,” he said.

Mouthpiece comfort stayed a strong point. Condensation stayed low. I did not feel the same wipe routine as Turbo use. That became a quality-of-life advantage.

Specs are clearer on retailer listings than on the brand site pages we could access. The KadoBar listing calls it a 6000 puff disposable. It also lists 5% nicotine. That makes it less ambiguous for buyers.

Dr. Walker’s angle stayed consistent. He flagged the need for adult-only framing. He also pointed at nicotine addiction risk. The device being “smooth” is a sensory note. It does not mean “safe.”

Retailer listing reference for puff count and nicotine strength.

Draw experience and flavors

I tested six flavors from the KadoBar assortment shown in listings. Each one ran through quick hits during the day. I also ran longer pulls at night for texture notes.

Blackberry Watermelon felt juicy. The inhale led with watermelon. Blackberry came behind it. Sweetness stayed medium. The throat feel stayed smooth. Jamal liked it for walking pulls. “Easy flavor, easy draw,” he said, then he kept it in rotation.

Cucumber Lime surprised me. The inhale felt crisp. Cucumber stayed light, not “salad.” Lime added tartness at the end. It cleared fast. I used it as a palate reset. Marcus called it “weird but clean.” “It doesn’t get sticky,” he said.

Grape Aloe tasted cool and soft. Grape came first. Aloe gave a watery finish. It felt less candy than most grape profiles. The throat feel stayed gentle. Jamal liked it in the car. “It doesn’t linger,” he said.

Miami Mint stayed the most straightforward. The inhale tasted mint-forward. Cooling stayed moderate. The exhale cleared quickly. It felt stable over repeated pulls. That made it a repeat-session flavor.

Strawberry Watermelon hit as classic candy fruit. The inhale felt sweet. The exhale leaned strawberry. It can fatigue with constant use. I rotated it with mint to keep it fresh.

Watermelon Ice brought cooling into the fruit. The inhale carried watermelon candy. Cooling followed quickly. It sharpened the throat feel slightly. Marcus preferred it to sweeter blends. “At least it has bite,” he said.

Best draw experience came from Cucumber Lime for “clean” pulls. Miami Mint stayed best for repeat use. Blackberry Watermelon felt best as a casual all-day flavor.

Compare Performance Scores of These Vapes

Turbo tops the chart on raw output. X stays closest as a balanced “featured” unit. Max stays the simple baseline. Beast acts like a throat-hit specialist. KadoBar wins daily carry comfort.

Best Picks

• Best Crave vape for long-run daily use
  Winner: Crave Turbo 20k
  The score lead comes from output plus flavor persistence. The lock habit also helped real carry use. Marcus trusted its stability more than Beast warmth patterns.

• Best Crave vape for slim gadget carry
  Winner: Crave X Ultra Slim 40k/25k
  The slider and screen changed how we paced sessions. The airflow score stayed high. Jamal kept reaching for it during commutes.

• Best Crave vape for pocket simplicity
  Winner: Crave Max 2500
  Ease of use was near the top. Portability stayed best-in-class. The device stayed predictable through normal adult routines.

How to Choose the Crave vape

Start with vaping style. Tight MTL habits match simpler draws. Mid MTL habits handle denser output better. Then look at nicotine tolerance. Higher strengths can feel sharper. Lower strengths can feel “thin” to heavy users.

Device type stays simple here. These are disposables. The choice comes from size, output, plus control. Battery needs show up as “how often you replace it.” Turbo and X aim at long-run behavior. Max and KadoBar aim at simpler rotation.

Maintenance preferences still matter. Condensation wipe habits differ by output. Turbo needs more attention. KadoBar needs less. Budget also matters. X can cost more for the “device-like” feel.

Matching advice for typical adult users
A light-to-mid user who wants simple carry
Pick Crave Max 2500. Consider Crave x KadoBar 6000. The ease score stays high. Jamal’s pocket notes stayed strongest.

A former heavy smoker who wants a firmer feel
Pick Crave Turbo 20k. Consider Crave Max Beast 4500. Marcus liked the denser vapor. He also liked the firmer throat feel.

A flavor-focused user who hates flavor fade
Pick Crave Turbo 20k. Consider Crave X Ultra Slim. Both held flavor longer in our notes. Turbo stayed richest. X stayed clean with control.

A commuter who needs long practical runtime
Pick Crave X Ultra Slim. Consider Crave Turbo 20k. The long-run behavior mattered. Jamal kept them in rotation without constant swaps.

A beginner who wants minimal thinking
Pick Crave x KadoBar 6000. Consider Crave Max 2500. Both stayed straightforward. Mouthpiece comfort also stayed easy.

Limitations

Crave’s nicotine disposable lineup leans on flavor variety. That brings one limitation. Flavor availability shifts. Some SKUs disappear. Others replace them. Buyers can end up chasing a flavor name.

Label clarity varies by model page. Some pages state nicotine strengths clearly. Others rely on seller listings. That creates uncertainty for adult buyers. It also creates higher risk of accidental overbuying.

High-output models can bring more condensation. Turbo showed that pattern. Wipe routines become part of ownership. If a user hates that, it becomes friction.

Pocket comfort differs a lot. Turbo is larger. X stays slim, yet it still feels like a “featured” device. If a user wants ultra-light carry, KadoBar and Max fit better.

People who want rebuildable control will not get it here. These are disposables. Coil choice is not part of the user experience. People who want exact airflow tuning will also feel limited.

Very heavy all-day users can still hit a wall. Puff targets are not a guarantee. Real use depends on pull length. It also depends on mode use when modes exist. Adult users who chain-pull should also watch heat patterns. That is basic caution.

Nicotine carries dependence risk across all options. None of these devices remove that risk. Adult-only use stays the baseline.

Is the Crave vape Lineup Worth It

Crave competes on variety. Crave also competes on puff-count framing. The lineup delivers a wide set of daily experiences. That is the real selling point.

The Max 2500 feels like a dependable baseline. The draw stays consistent. The carry comfort stays strong. Flavor stays clean until late-life fade. The value is simple. You pay for predictability.

The Beast pushes a firmer feel. Vapor gets thicker. Throat feel gets sharper on icy flavors. Some users want that. Marcus wanted that. The trade-off shows in clarity. Specs beyond puff target are not always clear. Adult buyers should not guess nicotine content.

Turbo 20k earns its price through endurance. The brand states 20 mL prefilled e-liquid. It also states up to 20,000 puffs. Those claims align with long-run behavior. Mode language matters too. It changes the feel. Marcus felt the stronger output. He also saw warmth rise faster. That led to pacing habits. Condensation also rose. Wipes became normal.

Crave X feels like a premium slim device. The brand states two modes. It also states a screen plus a slider. That changes how people use it. Jamal liked quick status checks. He also liked slim carry. The price can be higher. The value depends on whether that “device” feel matters.

KadoBar 6000 sits in a comfort zone. Mouthpiece feel stayed smooth. Pocket carry stayed easiest. Flavor felt clean. Output stayed moderate. Adults who want a loud plume may feel underwhelmed. Adults who want easy use will like it.

Prices vary by seller. That changes the value call. Under higher prices, Max becomes less compelling. Under sale prices, Turbo becomes a strong buy. The value also depends on how you vape. Short MTL pulls stretch life. Long pulls cut it.

None of these products can be framed as safe. Nicotine is addictive. Aerosol chemistry varies by device and liquid. Dr. Walker’s position stays consistent. Health claims do not belong in a consumer review. The practical conclusion is narrower. If you are an adult nicotine user, the lineup can fit real routines. Turbo and X offer the strongest “feature value.” Max and KadoBar offer the strongest “easy carry value.”

Pro Tips for Crave vape

• Wipe the mouthpiece after heavier sessions. Condensation builds faster on high-output devices.
• Store devices upright when possible. It reduces liquid migration.
• Use shorter pulls with very sweet flavors. Palate fatigue shows up faster.
• Rotate a mint or clear profile between candy flavors. It keeps flavor perception cleaner.
• Avoid leaving a device in a hot car. Heat changes draw feel fast.
• If a device warms quickly, pause sessions. Let the body cool before returning.
• Keep the airflow path clear of pocket lint. A quick visual check helps.
• Use lock behavior when available. It reduces accidental activation in bags.
• Track when flavor fades sharply. That often signals end-of-life.
• Buy nicotine strength you already tolerate. Do not “step up” casually.

FAQs

What does Crave vape mean by puff counts like 20k or 40k

These are marketing targets. Real puffs depend on pull length. Mode use changes it too. We saw longer practical life on Turbo and X. We also saw faster depletion with longer pulls.

How long did the Crave Max 2500 last in real use

It worked best as a short-run daily tool. With short breaks use, it covered multiple days. With longer sessions, it ended sooner. Flavor fade near the end happened fast.

Does the Turbo 20k really need more cleaning

It needed more mouthpiece wiping in our use. Condensation rose with denser output. It did not turn into messy leaks for us. The wipe habit still mattered.

Which Crave vape felt best for commuting

Jamal kept reaching for the X and the KadoBar. The X stayed slim with visible status. The KadoBar stayed the easiest pocket tool. Turbo felt bulkier in tight pockets.

How often do flavors change across Crave listings

Flavor availability shifts by seller. Some flavors show up as separate SKUs. Others disappear. That is normal in this category. It can frustrate people who stick to one flavor.

What nicotine strength should an adult pick

Nicotine tolerance varies person to person. Higher strengths can feel sharper. Lower strengths can feel less satisfying for heavy users. Pick what you already tolerate. Avoid treating it like dosing advice.

Did any device feel harsh

Harshness is subjective. I found icy profiles sharper on the Beast. Turbo in a higher output feel also sharpened the throat feel. Mint profiles stayed smoother for repeat pulls.

Is Crave X better than Turbo

Turbo won on raw output score. X won on slim carry feel. The “better” choice depends on pocket comfort needs. It also depends on whether modes matter to you.

What should a user do if a device gets unusually hot

Stop using it. Let it cool. If the pattern continues, discontinue use. Heat behavior is not something to ignore. Dr. Walker’s view stays cautious here.
