Hozit guys, So I started seeing the posts of this new pod from Voopoo recently all over on their social media and was sent one by Voopoo to review, Sliding the box open I was surprised with the size of this little monster! It really does look like a toy or a keychain and not an actual vape! So lets start with this review!

Looks
As mentioned in the top of this review, I was truly blown away by the size of this small little pod device that looks like a DRAG2 which was shrunken to less than half the size and width. You don’t feel this pod in your pocket as its thin as hell and I would suggest everyone to get the Fans kit that includes the nice shiny silver chain so that you don’t misplace this one!
Vaping?
I filled the pod up and battled with the pod and couldn’t get it filled up to the brim. Being only a 1ml pod, I wanted to get as much in there possible. I closed the bottom part and gave the pod a couple of pulls to get the coil all saturated and popped her into the device. Once I started vaping, I immediately notices or heard that this pod is firing at a super strong rate, Im sure this pod is going at around 20watt cause you can hear it firing much louder than other pods.
The device itself does not have any power settings and only has a battery LED indicator which will be green if the battery life is 60% or more, Blue if lower than 60% down to 20% and then will turn Red if battery life is below 20%. According to Voopoo, the Gene.pod chip will manage the power and will provide the same kick until the battery is flat compared to other pods that will provide less flavour as the battery starts to die and I can agree with this, it just keeps going!
Flavour on this device
When I compare the flavour of this pod with other devices, I will say that its up there with most of them, but my personal opinion is that it could have been better. Using the same Choc Mint Nic salt juice I use in all my other pods; I feel that flavour isn’t as in your face and sweet as the others. Flavor seems slightly muted unless i stuffed up the pod and is not as sweet as pods with CCell coils I have used. I tried a 50/50 and 60/40 Nicsalt juice at 12mg and there wasnt much improvement.
Let’s get down to the nitty gritty! The want to hears and the not’s!
Size, its tiny!!
Compared next to the Vaporesso Zero
My Pro's
- Comfortable to hold and easy to use with no button or settings
- Super Small & Light weight @ only 55grams
- Looks great with the mirror finish
- Different Resin colour options
- Super-fast firing as soon as you inhale
- Powerful GENE.POD Chip
- Hits hard for a pod device, harder than the Zero, Aurora Play and Vladdin
- Great battery life, used mine almost 2 and half days before the battery went from green to blue.
- No power settings which some might not like.
- The pods are a mission to fill and will spill cause its only got one hole so the air cannot escape causing liquid to push back.
- Only one pod included, 2 would have been much better.
- Pod flavour could have been better, i rate it at a 6 out of 10
It’s a cute little pod and I like it due to its size and looks. Flavour is good but I think it could have been a little better, but this is a pod and one can’t expect RTA flavour from any pod devises, so my feedback is an side by side comparison with other pods I have in my collection. For someone that needs that stealthy nic hit, this is perfect and offers great pod life and battery life.
Would I buy one with my own hard-earned cash? Its a maybe, it works great out and about and looks great...but i would probably just buy it for its cuteness.
