Comparing medicube Booster Pro and Booster Pro x2: Is the Upgrade Worth It?

In a hands-on comparison, the medicube Booster Pro and its successor, the Booster Pro x2, were tested separately for three weeks each, with sessions of about five minutes performed three to five times per one outlet after serum application. The original model provides four treatment modes—Boost, Air Shot, MC and Derma Shot—using electroporation, microcurrent and EMS technologies, and is priced at $220. The newer x2 retains those modes but adds Dual Mode, Mask Mode and AI-linked personalized settings, along with a dual-head design that doubles power output, resulting in a higher cost.

Both devices delivered gradual improvements in skin hydration, radiance and product absorption, though the x2 felt more premium and user-friendly. The reviewer notes that visible differences between the two were minor and that regular use outweighs the hardware advantages. For first-time buyers, the original offers solid value, while seasoned users may appreciate the added features of the x2 if they can justify the price premium.
