The Veepon Tita-X RBA hasn’t made a lot of noise in the industry, yet, based on performance, it’s up there with some of the industry giants.

The Vapefly Jester II aims to simplify, and improve on the highly successful, but pretty terrible Jester from 2019.

The Steam Crave Meson POD offers nothing special, it’s an average device at best that solely relies on its design to attract customers and nothing else.

The Uwell Caliburn G3 is everything you would expect from a Uwell pod system. Great construction, flavour and longevity.

The Voopoo Drag 4 marks a return to Voopoo’s golden years with less gimmicky non-sense and more functionality. The Drag 4 is the perfect mod for those looking to switch to high power devices or even seasoned vapers looking for a rock solid mod to run daily.

The Geekvape Z200 is everything that makes the T200 good, but there’s something odd about this device.

The Vandy Vape Kylin M Boro bridge is a perfect fit for boro style devices. A weird airflow adapter, but superb flavour and leak free make this a serious top 5 contender for cheap boro devices. Vandy Vape Kylin M Bridge Verdict – 81% There’s not many a mesh bridge available to those that enjoy…

The BP Mods Pioneer Insider bridge far outperforms it’s price, not only in performance and looks, but build quality as well. The only thing separating the BP Mods Pioneer Insider from high-end bridges is the false sense of quality attributed to paying over inflated prices for “premium” gear. BP Mods Pioneer Insider Verdict – 91%…

The Vapelustion Hannya Airtok pod system suffers from poor quality control and shoddy build quality, but performs as good as some of the best systems we’ve used. Vapelustion Hannya Airtok Verdict – 62% In an attempt to be hip and trending, Vapelustion brings us a device that is obviously inspired by Ed Hardys’ wildest imagination.…

All aside, the Hellvape Hellbeast 2 Sub Ohm Tank is just another tank. There’s nothing new, unique or exciting about it, but what it does, it does well; perfectly average in all aspects without being a disappointing experience.

The Dovpo Riva proves that there’s still place for large dual battery DNA devices, but it’s not without fault. It’s bulky, power hungry and awkward to carry, but it performs absolutely flawlessly. Dovpo Riva DNA 250C Verdict – 79% It feels as if DNA mods have become less relevant after the sudden influx of AIOs,…

The Netherlands flavour prohibition is set to take place on July 2023, killing off 80% of the Netherlands e-liquid market. It’s not all doom and gloom, but certainly terrible news for Dutch vapers. The Dutch government has announced it will carry out its plan to prohibit all flavours bar tobacco flavours with only a very…

Water based systems are nothing new, but the Innokin Innobar C1 is the first system that looks to get the technology far enough for mass adoption. The technology makes disposables even cheaper and more accessible to those looking to quit smoking. What is Water Based Vaping? Water based devices add 30% water content along with…

The Hellvape Dead Rabbit Max is a fresh take on an old classic, a real dose of nostalgia

Is there still space for a pure mechanical mod these days? The Bushido Squonk Mod makes a strong case as to why

Does Wotofo have what it takes to compete in the overly saturated disposable market?

The Atmizoo Vapesnail is touted as the only Billet Box accessory you will ever need. Nearly perfect in every way, it’s easy to see why it is held in such high regard . Atmizoo Vapesnail Verdict – 98% Atmizoo Vapesnail Pros: An all in one solution that replaces the somewhat finicky boro tank The best…

The Voopoo Vinci POD, the newest iteration of the successful Vinci AIO, has just landed and I’m not convinced that Voopoo is heading in the right direction. No matter how good this pod device is, dropping the PNP system for POD devices makes little sense and is the Vinci POD kits’ biggest letdown.  Voopoo Vinci…

The Voopoo Vinci X 2 brings the original Vinci series, which was easily the best AIO of its time, in line with Voopoos’ current design philosophy. While technically there’s not much new here, the update makes the Vinci feel even more relevant than it already was. Voopoo Vinci X 2 Verdict – 82% Voopoo Vinci…

The Vapefly Manners POD tries to hit the spot with their latest addition, but just barely misses the mark. A sleek and elegant device offering great flavour is let down by lower than average pod life. Vapefly Manners POD Verdict – 64% Vapefly Manners POD Pros: Sleek looking device Great flavour USB C charging 650mAh…

The Atmizoo Tripod is the definition of high-end gear. It’s expensive and not without its quirks but it performs like nothing else on the market. The Tripod is a fantastically machined RTA that is not only versatile but performs flawlessly in both MTL and RDL modes. If you’ve got cash to burn and looking for…

Aspire, an old hand at the vaping game has gone with a new approach and the results are magnificent. Moving on from the POD and AIO market, the Aspire Paradox and 9nth MTL tank deliver a vaping experience rivalled by few. If Aspire can nail this level of quality consistently, we may just have a…

Voopoo have invested heavily in their PNP ecosystem, not just on the atomizer side, but so too on hardware. It seems like not a month passes without a new PNP device from Voopoo. The Drag Max is the newest release in this lineup and falls neatly between the Drag X and Argus GT. Dropping the…

The Geekvape Wenax Stylus is Geekvape’s entry into the pen styled POD vape market. They are ridiculously late to the party and the Wenax doesn’t offer anything new or innovative to the market, so why should we care? Well, it’s Geekvape and they are known to take their time to properly research and develop a…

The Scar series is the newest in Smok’s lineup, taking a stab at the Aegis line from Geekvape. IP67 rated devices, being water, dust and shockproof, they aim to provide durable devices for users that are a bit harder on their hardware. Unfortunately, they just don’t quite get there, even if they are on average…

In the fast-moving world of vape hardware, companies are allowed to have one, maybe two missteps. For Wotofo, this was the COG RTA. An RTA that’s airflow was so bad, it may as well not have had any. The Profile RDTA may not be related to the COG RTA in any way, but it’s so…

Ever look at your 30mm atomizers and thing “Man, I sure could use some extra girth”? Me neither. Never-the-less, here’s the Steamcrave Ragnar, a 35mm monstrosity of an RTA that has more bells and whistles than a bell and whistle shop. Steamcrave Ragnar RDTA Review Verdict – 89% (View Latest Prices) Steamcrave Ragnar Pros: Wide…

Cybervape impressed us immensely with their first device, the Cyber X. An AIO that was well ahead of it’s time. Solidly built, performed flawlessly and with looks to boot, it was one of our favourite devices of 2019. Now, almost a year later, they welcome their second product to the market and it feels a…

The AIO market is so saturated that manufacturers are grabbing at straws to get their market share. We’ve seen pretty much everything that’s on offer, but Ultroner has thought outside the box and created the first (that we know of) lipo, stabwood all in one device. It’s not perfect by any means, but it certainly…

The Drag X and the Drag S from Voopoo are the newest versions of the Drag family. Apart from the namesake, the devices have nothing in common with the legendary Drag series, however, for all in one device, these things are pretty solid and worth a look. Voopoo Drag X & VooPoo Drag S Verdict…

I love when new companies throw caution to the wind and come up with an idea that’s just so wild, no one dares follow them. The Nevoks Angus is one such device. It’s a POD system, but it’s also an RDA and it takes both mesh and regular coils. It’s both DL and MTL and…

The Wotofo COG MTL RTA was set to be the biggest thing in MTL vaping this year. With a unique cog styled airflow setup, it promised to be precise, configurable, and an all perfect MTL RTA. Instead, what we got, was none of those things. Wotofo COG RTA Verdict – 67% Wotofo COG RTA Pros:…

Red takes the SMOK RPM80 & RPM80 Pro out for a test drive in order to see how these AIO vapes compare and which, out of these two vapes, is the best overall vape device… Love them or hate them, SMOK has been responsible for many users switching from combustible tobacco to electronic cigarettes. Sure,…

I’m crazy about pod systems. I have to have them all. If there’s a new one on the horizon, I will try everything in my ability to get hold of it, even if that means selling my dignity. There was one system I had a hell of a time getting my mitts on, the Lusty…

The Smoant Charon Baby is a simple, breath-activated pod mod (just like the UWELL Caliburn). It has a large battery, solid design, and picks up where the Smoant Pasito left off. But is it any good?  Smoant Charon Baby Verdict – 72% Smoant Charon Baby Pros: Simple to use Top-notch build quality and designs Great…

The Ultroner x Asmodus Thor II is an easy foray into the world of DNA devices. It’s cheap enough not make your eyes water, but not cheap enough to embarrass you at Vapecon. A wonderful device at the price, even if it’s a little older… Ultroner Thor II Verdict – 89% Ultroner Thor II Pros:…
