If you’re a vaping enthusiast, you've probably heard of the Vaporesso XROS series, known for its sleek design, smooth performance, and user-friendly features. Vaporesso has now introduced two exciting variations to the series: the XROS 5 and the XROS 5 Mini. Both models promise top-notch vaping experiences, but they offer distinct features tailored to different preferences. In this preview blog, we’ll compare these two pod kits to highlight their differences and help you decide which one suits your needs best.
XROS 5
Battery Capacity and Charging
Both the XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini are equipped with the same 1500mAh battery, which is quite impressive for a pod system. This ensures longer vaping sessions without needing frequent recharges. However, the charging options differ slightly:
XROS 5 supports DC 9V/2A, 5V/3A Type-C charging, offering faster charging capabilities. It also features a 0.88'' HD screen, which provides detailed charging status and other settings.
The XROS 5 Mini, on the other hand, comes with a 2A Type-C charging port and features a hidden tidal LED light to show battery status, adding a subtle yet stylish touch.
XROS 5 MINI
Size and Design
One of the most noticeable differences between these two models is their size and design. The XROS 5 is slightly taller, measuring 120.8 x 24.5 x 14.5mm, while the XROS 5 Mini is more compact at 110.5 x 24.2 x 14.1mm. The smaller size of the Mini makes it more portable and discreet, which is ideal for those who prefer a more pocket-friendly device.
The design of both pods is sleek, with the XROS 5 coming in a variety of colors, including Cosmic Black, Lavender Purple, Coral Red, and more. The XROS 5 Mini has a similar aesthetic, with colors like Black, Purple, Sky Blue, and even some more unique options such as Flowing Pink and Flowing Blue.
Airflow and Vaping Experience
Both devices allow adjustable airflow, giving users the ability to tailor their vaping experience from MTL (mouth-to-lung) to RL (restrictive lung). However, the XROS 5 provides more flexibility with three adjustable output modes: Power, Normal, and ECO, which further customizes your experience based on how much vapor and taste you want. This added control makes it a better fit for experienced vapers.
On the other hand, the XROS 5 Mini focuses on minimalist vaping and is more geared toward entry-level users. While it also allows for airflow adjustments, the lack of multiple output modes means it’s simpler and more streamlined, perfect for those who enjoy a straightforward MTL experience.
Pod Compatibility
Both devices are compatible with the entire XROS Pod Series, making it easy to switch between pods with different resistance levels. The XROS 5 offers 0.4Ω and 0.6Ω pods, which are designed for a more versatile vaping experience, catering to both MTL and sub-ohm preferences. Meanwhile, the XROS 5 Mini includes 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω, 1.0Ω, and 1.2Ω pods, focusing more on MTL-style vaping and offering a wider range of resistance for a tighter draw.
Unique Features
The XROS 5 comes with a 0.88'' HD screen, giving users a more advanced interface to track their settings, vaping modes, and battery status. It also includes auto draw and button activation, offering more control over the device’s operation.
In contrast, the XROS 5 Mini opts for a simpler setup. While it still features auto draw, it lacks the screen but compensates with the hidden tidal LED light to indicate battery life, offering a sleek, less obtrusive way to check your device's status.
Conclusion
Both the Vaporesso XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini are excellent choices, but they cater to different kinds of vapers.
XROS 5: Ideal for vapers who seek versatility, more control over their vaping experience, and a larger display for visual feedback. It’s perfect for those who want the option to fine-tune their vaping with multiple output modes and a customizable experience.
XROS 5 Mini: A compact, entry-level pod kit designed for users who prefer simplicity and portability. It’s perfect for those who enjoy a minimalist MTL vaping experience with just enough customization to enhance their sessions.
Ultimately, whether you go with the XROS 5 or the XROS 5 Mini depends on your vaping style and preferences, but both deliver on Vaporesso's commitment to quality, performance, and innovation.
