Tl;Dr: Overall, X1 Pro offers several significant improvements over the original X1 but it’s not a slam-dunk. I love the standard user-swappable batteries, fast USB-C charging, brightness, and dedicated channel selector switch. I like the UI, aesthetics, ergonomics, and powerbank function. The build quality and battery indicator are fine. The PWM may be an issue for some buyers. I dislike the unimpressive throw beam, over-promised brightness specs, switches being in different locations, and wish it had a magnetic tail.
