Twisp Cue - First Impressions
Today I got the Twisp Cue.
It's the new starter kit from Twisp aimed at people wanting something simple and to transition off the stinkies.
It's an all in one device but am reviewing it here in the Clearomiser section. We can move it later.
These are just my initial thoughts and first impressions. Will add more in time as I use it more.
It comes with three different flavoured pods. I took it out the box, inserted the Rebel flavour pod and I was puffing in less than a minute! No fiddling, no filling, just pop in the pod and puff.
Full marks to Twisp for simplicity. It's very neat. Extremely light. Maybe too light, lol. Nice finish. Flat drip tip feels nice.
It auto fires when you inhale. Cool. No pressing of anything. It has a light that goes on when you inhale. The 'e' of Cue lights up.
Ok so how does it vape?
Very nicely! Am quite surprised how much vape comes out of something so light. Rebel tastes glorious. Just like I remembered from my Twisp days, years ago.
This is a mouth to lung vape. Nice and tight. You first inhale into the mouth then you breathe in the vapour. I found it best doing a slow mouth inhale to get as much Vapour into the mouth then taking a quick inhale into the lungs.
I think it scores an A+ for simplicity. Using this is incredibly easy and I can't see anything obvious that could go wrong.
I think it will do rather well as an 'intro to vaping' device for a smoker wanting to transition and not wanting anything complex.
Also, it's well priced. I paid R399 and it comes with the USB charge cable and three pods. I think the pods are about R44 each when you need to buy more.
For me personally though it just feels like the vape is a bit too mild. Definitely feels like a fine Vapour being produced with good flavour but it doesn't give me much throat hit. Rebel is a bit softer and I still need to try the Polar Mint and the tobacco. Then again I do like lots of throat hit so my comments shouldn't put off most Vapers. I think this device produces a lovely smooth flavour filled vape and punches well above its weight.
Will it replace my Evod1?
It's early days but I dont think so. In my Evod I have what feels like a supercharged vape compared. It's more about the juice though. I have 18mg VM Berry Blaze in there with about 8 drops of menthol concentrate. Punches me nicely. It's the menthol which adds the punch.
Problem with the Cue is I can't put in my menthol because the pods are closed. If Twisp could make us a strong 'Rebel Ice' maybe it would help...
Anyway, enough about me. This is a great device and it works very well straight out the box. I think at the price it's a great device and I will certainly keep on using it in stealth mode and report back on future findings.
Here's a pic of what's in the box. The three pods (some condensation or tiny juice drops in two of them by the way) and the charge cable. Good leaflet.
