Following the hugely popular Legend 2, Geek Vape's Legend 3 builds on the foundations that made the range so successful, while adding some welcome modern touches. The build quality is immediately impressive: sturdy materials, sleek leather finishes, a bright TFT display... the box exudes seriousness and is clearly aimed at the premium segment.
Still equipped with two 18650 batteries , it boasts a comfortable battery life, capable of easily lasting two days with moderate use. The real novelty comes from the touch unlocking sensor located on the back: a solution that is both practical and secure, preventing accidental activation in your pocket or bag.
The chipset doesn't just deliver raw power. In addition to the classic Power, Boost, Memory, ECO, and TCR modes, there's a Smart mode that automatically detects the installed resistance and adjusts the power to preserve the coils while optimizing flavor rendering.
Delivered with the 5.5ml Z-Fli Tank Z Series , the Legend 3 ensures easy filling, an airy draw and a leak-free experience, even after several days. Charging is done via fast USB-C (although an external charger is still recommended), and the battery hatch inspires confidence.
GeekVape has here achieved a measured but solid evolution: a reliable, aesthetic and intelligent box , designed as much for heavy vapers as for demanding amateurs.
We have vaped this electronic cigarette for a long time and we are going to tell you what we think about it.

Under the hood, the Geek Vape Legend 3 retains its dual 18650 battery , ensuring comfortable battery life, even for heavy vapers. The color TFT offers good readability, with the ability to customize the display to your preferences.
In terms of settings, the box doesn't just have a simple power mode: it includes a wide range of profiles, from Smart (which automatically adjusts the power according to the resistance) to Boost , including Memory , ECO and TCR for those who like temperature control. A choice that covers all styles of vaping, from the simplest to the most advanced.
The 5.5ml Z-Fli Tank is a solid companion: it fills easily, without leaking, and works with the Z Series , already well known for their balance between flavors and vapor production. The USB-C allows for fast charging, although an external charger is still recommended to protect its batteries.

A faithful design, but subtly modernized
At first glance, it's hard to tell Geek Vape's Legend 3 apart from its predecessor. Geekvape has retained the same robust and solid build that made the range's reputation, but has still included some welcome tweaks. The new features are most noticeable in the finishes: a revised, more modern screen interface, with the option to choose from five color themes, just to personalize the experience a little. The front panel has also evolved: the more discreet "+/-" buttons integrate better into the overall design, while the more compact main switch is more comfortable under the finger. Finally, the upper part retains the protective cover for the USB port, but it now features a metal insert bearing the Geekvape logo, which adds a more premium touch. As is often the case with the brand, the electronic cigarette is available in several colors, making it easy for everyone to find a version that suits them.

Vape modes for all profiles
Geekvape hasn't just refined the design of its Legend 3, the brand has also thought about the user experience by offering a range of modes capable of responding to all vaping styles. As soon as it is switched on, the Smart mode automatically adjusts the power according to the installed resistance. It's an ideal solution for beginners, or simply for those who don't want to bother with settings.
More experienced vapers will probably prefer the Power mode , which allows total freedom in manually adjusting the power, in order to obtain a tailor-made vape. For those looking for more responsiveness, the Boost mode sends a full puff of power from the first inhalation, which immediately intensifies the flavors.
The Legend 3 also proves versatile with its Memory mode , capable of saving several vape profiles. A real plus for easily switching between different liquids or draw styles. On the go, the ECO mode makes all the difference by reducing energy consumption and extending battery life. Finally, more technical users can venture into the TCR mode , which allows extremely precise adjustment of temperature control.
Ergonomics and finishes: a deliberate size
With its 140 mm height , 55 mm width and 30 mm thickness , the Legend 3 remains an imposing box, faithful to the robust DNA of Geekvape. In the hand, it appears massive but well balanced, a compromise that dual battery fans already know. Its weight of around 125 g without batteries confirms this impression: it is not the lightest on the market, but its construction immediately inspires confidence.
The finishes are, as is often the case with the brand, meticulous. The assemblies are precise, the materials solid, and the whole exudes durability. We find this mix of metal and textured coatings which reinforce the feeling of robustness, while bringing a certain elegance. In short, Geekvape does not betray its reputation and offers a box that is both durable and pleasant to use on a daily basis.
For what type of vaper?
The Geek Vape Legend 3 is clearly aimed at fans of robust and versatile e-cigarettes. Its dual-battery format makes it a top choice for those looking for substantial battery life and who don't mind a slightly larger size. Beginners will appreciate the Smart mode , which simplifies settings and avoids errors, while experienced users will benefit from a wide range of advanced modes to customize their experience down to the smallest detail.
It is also designed for extreme vapers , those who use their equipment all day long. With two 4000 mAh batteries, the Legend 3 is capable of lasting a full day without difficulty , even with intensive use. This is a real asset for those who don't like to worry about recharging and want to be able to count on their box from morning to night.
In summary, the Legend 3 will suit both vapers looking for simplicity and demanding enthusiasts, provided they accept a more generous size than that of compact models.

Feedback after one year of use
After a year of daily vaping , I can say without hesitation that the Legend 3 from Geek Vape remains a box that keeps its promises. To give you an idea, I am an intensive vaper , consuming around 400 ml of e-liquid per month , and yet the Legend 3 still works wonderfully.
Its robustness is undeniable: despite a few falls, it has never shown the slightest sign of weakness. The Z Flip atomizer , with its easy and non-detachable opening, transforms filling into child's play, making the gesture simple and quick on a daily basis.
The push-to-release function remains perfectly reliable, no matter the situation, and no accidental triggering has been observed, even in a pocket. As for the flavor restitution, it is impeccable: each e-liquid finds its optimal expression, for consistent pleasure with each puff.
In the end, if the question is whether I recommend the Legend 3: absolutely . Once tested, it is easy to adopt, and its daily effectiveness quickly makes you forget any hesitation.
A quick comparison against the competition
To better situate the Legend 3, it is interesting to compare it with some neighboring models. With its two 18650 batteries , it immediately stands out with its very solid autonomy, capable of lasting well over a day, especially compared to single-battery boxes like the Drag X Plus Pro from Voopoo , which remains more compact but offers more limited endurance and only three vaping modes.
As for the Aegis Max 2 , still signed Geekvape, we remain on a simple 21700 battery format: the device is lighter and more manageable, but the autonomy remains average, and the available modes are reduced to four.
Finally, the Armour Max , also from Geekvape, plays in the same category as the Legend 3 by relying on a dual 21700 battery format. More imposing, it offers excellent autonomy and five modes, but remains a notch behind the six proposals of the Legend 3.
Ultimately, the Legend 3 manages to strike a good balance: IP68 waterproofing , a modern TFT display and increased versatility, making it a particularly attractive alternative for those looking for uncompromising robustness and endurance.
Conclusion: a solid and versatile box
Geek Vape's Legend 3 stands out as a robust electronic cigarette built to last. Its design remains true to the range, but a few modern touches, such as the customizable screen interface and the more tactile buttons, provide real user comfort. The finish is neat and the box immediately inspires confidence, even after intensive use.
In terms of performance, the Legend 3 is versatile and adaptable to all vaping profiles. The six available modes, from Smart for beginners to TCR for advanced users, allow you to adjust the experience to suit your needs. Its battery life is a real highlight: with two 4000 mAh batteries, it easily lasts a full day, even for the most demanding vapers.
After a year of intensive use, the Legend 3 confirms its resistance and reliability . The Z Flip atomizer makes filling easy, the unlocking remains reliable in all situations, and the flavor restitution is excellent. In short, this box manages to combine robustness, comfort and performance , while remaining accessible to vapers who want a complete and personalized experience.
In short, the Legend 3 from Geek Vape is not just another product in the Geekvape range: it is a box that we adopt and with which we can rely on daily . For those looking for reliable, durable and high-performance equipment, it is a choice that fully defends itself.
