Vaporesso XROS 5 & XROS 5 Mini: Product Review
Vaporesso’s XROS 5 series arrives as an exciting addition to their renowned pod kit lineup, offering options to suit new and experienced vapers alike. With a focus on user-friendly design and impressive performance, both the XROS 5 and the XROS 5 Mini offer meaningful upgrades that keep them at the top of many vapers’ wish lists.
Improvements from the previous XROS
Vaporesso have made noticeable enhancements over earlier versions of the XROS series. Both kits now feature a 1500mAh internal battery, offering longer usage between charges compared to previous models which had notably smaller batteries. The pods themselves use the latest Corex 3.0 technology, which delivers an increase in vapour production, improved flavour clarity, smoother airflow, and more reliable performance.
Additionally, all old XROS pods remain compatible with the new devices, giving those upgrading peace of mind when using their existing spares.
Vaporesso XROS 5
The XROS 5 truly shines as a versatile pod system. It features both a fire button and auto-draw capabilities, alongside a clear display screen for easy power and theme adjustments. Users can select from six themes and three power levels, allowing them to tailor the device to personal taste. The airflow adjustment slider makes it simple to switch between a tight mouth-to-lung vape and a looser draw depending on preference.
Included in the box are both 0.8ohm and 0.6ohm pods, giving you options for either a smooth, flavourful vape or a slightly airier restricted direct-lung experience. The battery charges exceptionally quickly thanks to super-fast 3A charging via USB Type-C, making downtime minimal. The kit is available in a choice of stylish colours, finished with Vaporesso’s typically sleek aesthetic.
Vaporesso XROS 5 Mini
The XROS 5 Mini is aimed at vapers seeking maximum simplicity. It’s compact, super lightweight, and has no buttons, just fill the pod, wait a moment, and vape. The same robust 1500mAh battery as the XROS 5 is included, and the Mini also features airflow adjustment and a battery indicator LED.
There are no complicated menus to navigate, making it perfect if you want something easy for daily use or on nights out. Despite its minimalism, it still packs impressive vapour and flavour performance thanks to the included Corex 3.0 pod technology.
Performance
Both devices deliver exceptionally crisp flavour and satisfying vapour. The 0.8ohm pods produce a lovely, smooth draw ideal for those who prefer mouth-to-lung vaping, with the airflow control offering a wide range from loose to mostly tight. The 0.6ohm pods excel with sweeter e-liquids, really bringing out the depth and sweetness from every puff. No leaking was experienced during testing, and the pod system is simple and clean to use, even when swapped between different flavours.
Battery Life
The leap to a 1500mAh battery in both kits means that even heavy users can expect all-day performance, while light to moderate vapers might go several days on a single charge. Charging is fast with USB-C and the devices maintain their slim, ergonomic feel despite the generous battery size.
