Best Vaporesso Xros Vape Kits | 2026 Review

Experience with the Xros 4 Nano

The Vaporesso Xros 4 Nano is one of those kits that seems a little odd at first, especially if you are used to pen-style devices. It is shaped a little like an old MP3 player, with a flat, rounded-square design and circular screen.

However, the shape lends itself to an ergonomic grip despite its very compact form. It works particularly well if you often have shallow pockets, as it will not stick out like many longer vape kits.

The Xros 4 Nano was the first Xros kit to feature a 1.3-inch TFT colour display, providing an interface through which you can access the kit’s numerous features.

The screen displays common metrics including battery percentage, puff count, power or mode and pod resistance. It also lets you customise the power output, wattage and screen theme.

Although a 1.3-inch screen might sound small on paper, it is more than large enough to make these features clear and accessible. Many users remark on how vibrant and easy to read the screen is.

Another positive is its large 1350mAh battery, which can last two to three days with moderate use. Battery life will depend heavily on your usage habits and preferred wattage, with higher wattages naturally depleting it more quickly.

This brings me to one of the less impressive aspects of the device: the screen’s effect on battery life. Having a relatively high-resolution display light up each time you use the kit consumes more power than a simple LED indicator would.

You can disable the animations in the settings, though I found that doing so had a negligible impact on battery performance.

Moving on to the fire button and airflow, both features work well. The kit even gives you the option to switch between automatic draw and button firing. My only issue is their positioning: because the button and airflow control sit close together on one side, it is possible to restrict the airflow with your hand while pressing the button.

Best for people who want plenty of features in a compact device without having to carry a large mod.

Experience with the Vaporesso Xros 4 Mini

The Xros 4 Mini is one of the best-selling Xros series devices. It is easy to see why: this device often comes at a difficult-to-beat price and offers plenty of value.

Another reason for its popularity is the straightforward design, which lends itself to new users by being simple to operate and maintain. Unlike many Xros devices and modern pod kits in general, the Xros 4 Mini is not packed with features such as a customisable screen, puff counter or wattage control.

All you need to do is fill it with e-liquid and inhale. That is it. There is no fire button, so the Xros 4 Mini relies solely on inhale activation.

The only element you can customise, aside from choosing one of the ten colour options, is the airflow. Set into a recessed area on the side of the device, the slider lets you control the draw from a tight MTL feel to a looser RDTL inhale.

Do not expect it to produce enormous clouds, though. It simply was not designed for that. The kit lacks the wattage and features needed to perform like a purpose-built DTL mod. Its simplicity makes it closer in use to a cigarette than a full-sized mod.

I would not regard that simplicity as a shortcoming. It is a deliberate design choice that makes this one of the best Xros kits for former smokers and newcomers. Another simple but useful feature is the three-colour LED display: green indicates 100%–70% battery, blue 70%–30%, and red anything below 30%.

However, the Xros 4 Mini falls slightly behind the pack in raw battery capacity. The 1000mAh cell is certainly enough to support this low-wattage kit, but it will need charging more often than some of its counterparts.

Thankfully, charging is simple thanks to the built-in Type-C port. A decent-quality charging cable is included with the kit.

Best for newcomers who want a simple, affordable refillable kit with almost no learning curve.

Experience with the Vaporesso Xros 4

Now on to the bigger brother of our previous entry: the Xros 4. This kit shares many of the same characteristics as the Mini, particularly its battery capacity, ease of use and general design choices.

Where it differs is the introduction of more advanced features including power adjustment, button firing, a lock and faster charging.

On the front of the Xros 4, you will find a simple display and circular fire button arranged around an elegant central hub. This serves as the device’s main interface. The display shows the remaining battery level, power setting and lock status.

To interact with these features, you press the fire button multiple times. Three rapid presses cycle through the three power settings — Low, Medium and High — while four presses toggle the lock on or off.

The Xros 4 has a 2A fast-charging port at its base, enabling you to charge the 1000mAh battery in approximately 30 minutes. That helps compensate for the fact it carries the same capacity as the Xros 4 Mini: recharges might be more frequent, but at least they are much shorter.

Like most kits in the Xros line-up, the Xros 4 has a durable construction made primarily from aluminium. It feels good in the hand and looks good too — somewhat like the iPhone of vaping.

Best for people who want a straightforward device with a useful selection of advanced controls at a sensible price.

Experience with the Vaporesso Xros Pro 2

Now we reach the most feature-packed and capable kit in the Xros range: the Xros Pro 2. This is a device that takes the concepts and design approach of earlier Xros models and turns everything up.

Built as a direct successor to the original Xros Pro, the Xros Pro 2 uses a 2000mAh battery compared with its predecessor’s 1200mAh cell. That is a major step forward in capacity, but what is even more impressive is its weight.

At only 65g, it is 21g lighter than the original Xros Pro. You might wonder how that is possible with such a substantially larger battery.

The secret is the Xros Pro 2’s magnesium-alloy construction, which cuts weight while maintaining rigidity. It also creates an opulent semi-gloss finish that, in my opinion, makes this one of the best-looking pod kits available right now.

On the front of the device is a recessed screen that blends neatly into the body. You interact with it using the fire button and can access the usual features, including wattage, battery level, animations, power lock and firing modes.

Perhaps the most interesting feature is the puff-count chart. Rather than simply showing a total, the Xros Pro 2 stores your daily puff count and displays it as a graph for day-by-day tracking.

The Xros Pro 2 is not a device I would recommend to a complete newcomer who is unfamiliar with one-button menus. It is better suited to somebody who will actually use its more advanced controls.

The main drawbacks are fairly minor. The recessed screen can look a little dim on lighter-coloured variants, appearing at its best against the darker finishes, while the semi-gloss surface can attract fingerprints.

Best for users who prioritise maximum battery capacity and want the most feature-rich Xros available.
