Review of CUBOID Pro with ProCore Aries from Joyetech
In today’s review, we will consider a set of the CUBOID Pro box mod and ProCore Aries clearomizer from Joyetech.
The company Joyetech, known to almost everyone, is no longer a newcomer in terms of producing box mods with a touch screen. An attempt called Ocular, as we know, did not surprise the vaping industry with either its touchscreen or even a built-in MP3 player. Later, the guys from Joyetech presented the CUBOID TAP – a device with touch buttons and a vibration motor that responds to pressing these very buttons. But, as often happens, this device did not receive the popularity it deserved. Today, we will look at a kind of mixture of the two aforementioned box mods in the face of the CUBOID Pro, which also includes a non-serviceable ProCore Aries.
Packaging and equipment
Our kit comes in a standard box from Joyetech. Almost nothing changes from device to device, only the images on the front side and the inscriptions on the back differ depending on the device packed inside. In my case, there is a sticker indicating that the sample is pre-sale. vape chargers in new zealand In your case, there will be no such mark. The back of the box is strewn with various information, primarily concerning what awaits us inside. Let’s not hesitate and open the package.

After removing the cover, we see the CUBOID Pro in all its glory, located in a foam lining, under which, in turn, the remaining and less interesting part of the package is hidden. The manufacturer took care and put everything necessary in the box so that the user could start using the device immediately and without any problems.

Appearance and design of ProCore Aries
Let’s start the analysis with the complete ProCore Aries tank. The design of the cleric is absolutely unremarkable, and this thing looks, I must say, very dubious. However, it is made in about the same way. There are engravings on the top and bottom with information about the manufacturer and the name of the tank. The positive pin is steel and protrudes from the connector quite weakly. This is in case someone suddenly decides to use this tank on mechanical mods with a hybrid connector, which I do not recommend doing in principle.
Joyetech took a non-standard path in terms of implementing a drip tip for its tank. Here it is, so to speak, a casing sitting on a metal extension of the filling cap. By the way, you can install your own 510 drip tip in this extension, but it will look pretty miserable. The filling cap is also made in a very interesting way: to gain access to the filling, you need to press your finger in a certain part of the cap, marked with an engraving, and move this very cap, after which this piece of metal simply folds back. When first filling up, it is quite difficult to get the hang of it and not to overdo it with the pressing force, without getting hurt on the sharp parts of the tank.

By the way, the clearomizer is available in two variations: a standard one for 4ml of liquid and, as in our review, one that holds only 2ml. It is not possible to change the volume right out of the box in this case, these are two different tanks.
Impressions and conclusions
Let’s start scolding the hero of today’s review from its upper part – from the tank. ProCore Aries is made rather mediocrely and is an unremarkable non-serviceable unit, included in the kit just for show. The clearomizer works, yes, but its operation is associated with certain difficulties. The first times of refilling, the top cover opens very problematically, trying to injure the owner with its sharp edges. The drip tip used in the tank can also be called a strange choice on the part of the manufacturer. The atomizer also gets a dislike for the tightening adjustment ring, which simply dangles in different directions. Nevertheless, ProCore Aries works properly and gives quite good steam, although it does not amaze with an abundance of taste. It will do for beginners, but experienced vapers will definitely not like this tank.
As for the “Cuboid”, the attempt of the Joyetech company to endow its brainchild with an abundance of various functions is certainly commendable, but the implementation, to put it mildly, is lame. The touchscreen here is far from its counterparts used in modern smartphones. The sensor is slow, does not always respond to pressing and destroys the nerve cells of the owner of the box mod with its behavior. Subsequently, if you get used to it, it is quite possible to use it, knowing in advance how and at what angle you need to place your finger. I have no questions about the operation of the board, but I would like to get to the bottom of its functionality. The board is overloaded with absolutely unnecessary features, among which the pedometer is most perplexing. Why it is needed in a device for vaping is a mystery. Control of the box mod is confusing, intuitively incomprehensible. You do not immediately understand where and why you need to poke, pressing icons at random. Everything is made in Chinese, that’s for sure. The positive aspects of CUBOID Pro include its rather nice appearance and pleasant ergonomics. The device is really convenient to use and hold in your hands. The touch-sensitive Fire button, which vibrates when pressed, can also be called a good solution. The board itself works quite correctly, responds quickly, and during the testing of the device it showed itself to be quite good. Everything here is typical for Joyetech products.
