Build Quality and Design of SMOK Pozz X
The SMOK Pozz X Pod System is a good-looking and well-made device. It’s got a rounded and oval shape with an ergonomic and curvy design for a comfortable grip. The front and back panels are made up of four layers, including a hardened inner layer, PMMA, PC, and a process layer for great build quality. It is very slim and easily slips into your pocket with only 0.6mm thickness. The dimensions are 97.3mm x 33.6mm x 22mm, making it a little bit larger compared to the Nord. It weighs about 97g and feels a bit of hefty in hands.
The electroplating wraps around the sides and bottom of the Pozz X to provide a shiny and metallic finish with different color schemes. There are three symmetrical airflow holes on either side of the device to bring you the fantastic flavor and loose DTL draw. The round fire button on the front of the device is tactile and clicky. The 0.96-inch TFT screen beneath the fire button displays the vaping information. The micro-USB charging port sits at the contoured underside of the device. There are no battery venting holes visible on the device.
Features and Usage of SMOK Pozz X
As with most pod AIOs, the SMOK Pozz X feels more like a full-fledged device. Driven by 1400mAh built-in battery, it can output a satisfying 5W to 40W and 0.3ohm to 2.5ohm. The device has a color screen on the front that is bright and easy to read. It shows basic info like battery life, wattage, voltage, resistance, puff duration, and puff counter. The display will standby after 15 seconds of inactivity to preserve battery life.
A single button operates everything on the device with the number of clicks. There are no adjustment buttons. The fire button takes on the menu functions. As far as operation goes, it is innovative and pretty easy to use, which is different to be the regular “five clicks to turn on/off” routine. The Lock Mode helps to prevent unexpected adjustments.
Quick Guide of SMOK Pozz X:
- Five clicks of the fire button to turn on the device
- In standby mode, five clicks of the fire button to enter into the main menu
- Press the upper or the lower part of the fire button to cycle through To Lock, Power Off, Puff Clear
- Press the fire button to confirm your choice
- Three clicks of the fire button to adjust the wattage output from 5W to 40W
The airflow is radically increased, which is much more open than the Nord. The unique symmetrical three-spoke air slots on either side of the device effectively enhance the air channel for better flavor. It is supposed to provide a very efficient DL vaping.
SMOK Pozz X Pod Cartridge
The SMOK Pozz X RPM pod is held in place very firmly with two notches that align to the inside of the battery section. It holds 4.5ml of e-liquid and comes with a wide and duck-billed mouthpiece, which is comfortable between lips.
Made of good-grade PCTG material, the Pozz X RPM Pod is clear and lightly dark-tinted, making it easy to see the juice level. The bottom of the RPM pod is incorporated with a fully adjustable airflow ring, which has a decent knurling and smooth tolerance for easy adjustment. So you have the option to enjoy a very restrictive DL hit. There is a rubber fill plug on the side of the pod, which is pretty standard for a pod device. You have to remove the pod to refill it.
The coil is replaceable and features the plug and play method but you may require to rotate the coil into position, which is very convenient. The RPM pod cartridge is compatible with all of the RPM coil range including an RBA deck. The kit comes with two RPM coils - a pre-installed 0.4ohm RPM mesh coil and a 0.6ohm RPM Triple Ceramic coil, which bring a good amount of airflow for a slightly restricted DL draw and a very loose MTL vape.
Performance:
0.4ohm RPM Mesh Coil rated at 25W gives you a massive cloud with a smooth and flavorful draw. It is the standard DTL vape. With a halfway of airflow, it provides a warm vape and restrictive lung hit with a stronger taste.
0.6ohm RPM Triple Coil rated at 25W has more restriction than the 0.4ohm coil. The flavor is average and the vapor production is decent. You will get a very loose MTL vape with the tightest airflow restriction, which is not bad for me.
SMOK Pozz X Pod Kit Review
The SMOK Pozz X is a powerful pod-style device that can satisfy your everyday use. It is a bit bulky but feels comfortable in hands. The innovative 4-layer structure creates a thinner, harder, and shiny panel. It is slightly heavier than Nord but it is still portable for on-the-go use. The 0.96-inch TFT screen is clear with a straightforward UI interface. SMOK eliminates the adjustment buttons and uses a more convenient and innovative operation, which will not let you down.
The RPM pod is compatible with all of the RPM coils. Both of the coils included in the kit provide a superb vapor production. The unique three-spoke air intake channels help to provide a fully blown DL vape. The 0.4ohm RPM mesh coil replicates the flavor very well with a pure and strong taste. It drains the battery a little bit faster. The 0.6ohm RPM triple coil lacks flavor and has leaking issues.
Although you have several degrees of restriction, you cannot get a good MTL draw with SMOK Pozz. But the DL experience is very impressive. Overall. The SMOK Pozz is a powerful and reliable pod kit for both new vapers and experienced vapers. You can directly regard it as a DTL device.
