Review of Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit
It’s not for nothing that there is a phrase: demand creates supply, which is applicable in many industries. And vaping is no exception, as more and more vapers decide to switch to compact POD systems, for which it is no longer a problem to find liquids based on salt nicotine (you can choose almost any flavor and strength). Taking advantage of the situation, manufacturers regularly release more and more new devices. The Vaporesso company, which has become very active in the last six months, has decided to offer vapers a new POD system, XROS Pod Kit, which will pleasantly surprise all lovers of salt nicotine e-liquids with its practicality, autonomy and stylish design. We can confidently say that the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit is designed for vapers who want to get a compact and productive device with which they are not ashamed to go out in public.
General information
Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit is a compact POD system equipped with a powerful battery, running a powerful Axon Chip chipset and designed for the use of replaceable cartridges. The device is made of stainless steel, which, although it makes it relatively heavy, gives it some chic and gloss. The presence of a powerful chipset that operates in automatic mode will allow the vaper to choose the optimal vaping option. For this POD system, there are two options for cartridges with built-in evaporators on a mesh, so there will be no questions about taste transfer. You can buy the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit in six colors: silver, grey, blue, cyan, pink and rainbow.
Equipment
This POD system is equipped quite decently without any special frills, but the box contains everything you need for trouble-free use of the device immediately after purchase. In the cardboard box the vaper will find:
XROS Battery Pack;
Replacement cartridge XROS 0.8″ Omega; POD (2ml);
Replacement cartridge XROS 1.2″ Omega; POD (2ml);
USB Type-C cable for charging;
Warranty card;
User’s Manual.
XROS Battery Pack
Recently, the Vaporesso Company has become quite active, as it presented many interesting devices of various formats that have already won the trust of vapers. But among the recently released devices there were no full-fledged and compact POD systems, so the appearance of the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit (or a similar device) was logical and expected.
It’s worth taking a look at how the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit looks: it’s a stylish stick made of stainless steel (the silver version looks especially impressive), measuring 112*23*13 mm. Naturally, it weighs not so little – 75 grams, but you don’t have to be afraid that if it falls on concrete or asphalt, the device will break.
Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit is powered by a built-in 800 mAh battery, which is a very good indicator for such a compact device (autonomy is guaranteed). The battery is charged using the USB Type-C connector located on the bottom end of the device, with a current of 1A (full charging time is 40-50 minutes).
An important feature of this POD system is that it operates under the control of a reliable Axon Chip chipset, which is designed to operate in two power modes of 11 and 16 Watts, activated automatically depending on the resistance of the installed cartridge. The battery charge level is indicated by a miniature LED located in the center and changing its color depending on how charged the battery is.
Depending on the vaper’s preferences, the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit can be activated by pressing the Fire button, or automatically when inhaling.
XROS Pod Cartridge
Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit is a fairly compact POD system, so it is logical that the cartridges for it have built-in rather than replaceable evaporators. In the battery pack, the cartridge is held in a fairly familiar way using magnets.
The manufacturer offers two types of XROS 0.8″ Omega cartridges for this device; POD and XROS 1.2″ Omega; POD, both types on a mesh, so the vaper is guaranteed to get a good taste. It is interesting that the manufacturer emphasizes that in addition to taste, the vaper will also receive good TX, and this is good news for fans of MTL puffs.
It’s worth saying thank you to the company’s developers for the fact that even such a compact device provides the ability to adjust the airflow. In order to set the airflow, there is a small slide with three holes on the side surface of the battery pack, by moving which you can set the optimal airflow for the vaper.
An interesting solution is the removable mouthpiece, which can be removed to gain access to the filling hole. The cartridge volume is small – 2 ml, but when using salt nicotine e-liquid, this is quite enough.
Conclusions and impressions
If a vaper is looking for a stylish and practical device, then the Vaporesso XROS Pod Kit is his choice. The POD system turned out to be very interesting not only externally, but also in terms of internal content, since the presence of an automatic chipset and two types of cartridges will allow you to get a good taste and noticeable performance. It is important to remember that the main purpose of the device is to vape liquids using salt nicotine, and with a fairly tight cigarette puff.
