As avid vapers and vape enthusiasts, we're always on the lookout for disposable options that balance quality, convenience and affordability. The market is flooded with choices, but few deliver on all fronts. In our experience, the Hyde Rebel series stands out.
In this in-depth guide, we'll share our hands-on impressions of the Rebel vapes after extensively testing both models. You'll get the full scoop on the features, real-world performance, flavor variety, and what makes these disposables a top choice for an effortless vaping experience. Let's get started!
First, some quick background. Hyde Vape is a fast-rising vape brand from the UK that burst onto the scene in 2021. Started by entrepreneur Matt Lord, Hyde aimed to evolve disposable vaping for new users with stylish, convenient designs focused on flavor and battery life.
As vapers ourselves, we've been impressed by Hyde's continual innovation and focus on the user experience. The Rebel disposable line exemplifies Hyde's strengths, offering extended battery performance and a huge e-liquid flavor selection.
The Rebel series includes:
Let's look at how these two models compare based on our first-hand testing.
As frequent travelers, we're always seeking disposable options that are portable and discrete while still delivering a quality vape experience. The standard Hyde Rebel Recharge checks all those boxes.
Right away we appreciated the slim, lightweight design - easily pocketable while still feeling sturdy. Despite its petite size, performance remains impressive:
For an affordable, compact yet long-lasting disposable, the Hyde Rebel Recharge hits the mark.
When battery life and e-liquid capacity are top priorities, the Rebel Pro really shines. This upgraded Rebel boosts the specs to 6000mAh battery and 11mL of nic salt e-juice for a staggering 5000 puff rating.
During a recent 2-week road trip, the Rebel Pro kept pace with our frequent highway vaping. The huge fluid reservoir meant no worries about running dry. And moving between rural gas stations, recharging on-the-go via USB was a breeze.
The expanded 22 flavor options enabled even more customization potential - we loved the creamy decadence of Fresh Vanilla and exhilarating chill of Sour Apple Ice.
By the end of our trip, we'd easily surpassed the advertised 5000 puff rating. For max duration in a discretely sized shell, the Rebel Pro is hard to beat.
To recap the key differences:
So the Pro upgrades the power and capacity while keeping the core design consistent. For heavy users, those extra 500 puffs and 1mL of fluid can make a difference in vaping satisfaction.
But both deliver the smooth Hyde nic salt experience and wide flavor selections that make the Rebel series special.
One major advantage Hyde Vape has over most disposable brands is the incredible variety of flavors - 19 in the standard Rebel and 22 in the Rebel Pro. We put this extensive palette to the test.
Here are some of our top Rebel flavor recommendations:
Fruit flavors dominate the lineup, spanning tropical fruits, berries, melons, apple, and more. Options include:
Peach Mango Watermelon - Juicy sliced peaches, mangoes, and watermelon make a deliciously sweet and refreshing medley. One of the most popular.

How much does a Hyde Rebel cost?
Around $20 per disposable. Very affordable given the quality and lifespan.
After extensively testing both models, the Hyde Rebel series clearly delivers an ideal blend of convenience, flavor, and performance. For on-the-go nic salt vaping without fuss, the Rebel lineup excels.
The expansive e-liquid options keep the vaping experience interesting long-term. And battery durations of up to 5000 puffs provide weeks of use per pod.
While the standard Rebel covers most needs, the Pro upgrades power users to the next level. But both provide incredible value in sleek, pocketable shells.
If you prioritize a fuss-free, flavorful disposable vaping experience, the Rebel surely satisfies. We can’t wait to see what long-lasting innovations Hyde has in store next!
