Vaporesso Launch XROS 5 & XROS 5 Mini

The Vaporesso XROS series has long been the consumers choice when it comes to looking for an entry level open pod device which can replicate disposable e cigarettes, their long list of XROS kits have since become the best selling device of its type. The eagerly anticipated XROS 5 & XROS 5 mini are now available and promise to be their best & most advance contraption of the XROS series to date.

Due to the huge success of the XROS 3 & XROS 4 devices, there was no need for drastic changes with the 5th edition and this is reflected with their shape & size which retains its sleek & compact demeanour. 

XROS 5

The most prominent improvements with this device is the new 1500mAh internal battery which is 50% larger than its predecessor, they have also incorporated a 'Turbo Charge' feature which allows you to charge up to 80% from a dead battery in as little as 20 minutes. 

The XROS 5 remains compact weighing in at a measly 73.7g making it perfect for users on the go. The fire button is no longer front facing, it is now mounted on to the side, the XROS 5 can be used via the fire button or by its auto inhale function. The airflow slider is also now conveniently side mounted.

The front facing 0.88" HD colour screen is a first with the XROS series, this stunning feature will display an accurate battery level, puff counter & mode so no more guesswork when it comes to knowing the particulars regarding your vaping experience.

The XROS 5 is available in a wide range of colours from solid black/silver to pearlescent pink/blue and even a racing stripe version. You can currently choose from 10 colours however they will almost certainly release more themes in the future.

XROS 5 MINI

The guys at Vaporesso have somehow managed to squeeze a 1500mAh battery into the XROS 5 mini making this the perfect secondary or even main device due to its performance. The airflow slider is now side mounted which is a welcome adjustment, the placement of the airflow control is now easier to adjust in ones hand. The TYPE C port is also side mounted as opposed to at its base. 

The XROS 5 mini weighs in at a slight 50.2g and is around an inch smaller than the XROS 5. The battery level LED is now front facing and is incorporated into a smart looking sequence of 4 lights further adding to the inconspicuous nature of the XROS 5 mini device. 

The XROS 5 mini is available in a wide range of colours from solid black/silver to a flowing green/blue and even a striking pastel crystal option which is reminiscent of a pearl stone. You can currently choose from 10 colours however you can expect more options in the near future.While both the XROS 5 & XROS 5 mini are compatible with the COREX 2 pods from the previous XROS devices, they excel when used with the new COREX 3 refillable pods. Although the COREX 2 pods garnered rave reviews for their flavour production & longevity, Vaporesso claim that the new COREX 3 pods feature the following 40% cloud production & 30% more flavour intensity/airflow smoothness/output stability. Vaporesso's 'SSS' technology ensures minimal leakage and the removable top cap allows you to refill your pod whilst it is still connected to your device.

Whilst it is difficult to measure the improvement in percentages it is evident when using the new COREX 3 refillable pods that there is a noticeable improvement with the airflow & flavour intensity.

The XROS 5 & XROS 5 mini have certainly lived up to its high expectations. Their were no radical changes required here due to the success of the XROS 4 & XROS 4 mini, Vaporesso have taken aboard the 'If it isnt broken dont fix it' mantra to full effect.
