This display features adjustable themes, including Robot, Cyberpunk, and Classic, adding a personalised flair to the device.
Verdict:
5/5 - Aesthetically pleasing and highly practical, the NeXlim excels in design.
Performance: Power and Precision
The 1500mAh battery is one of the standout features of the NeXlim. It offers an impressive long lasting charge, even with heavy use, and charges rapidly thanks to 2A Type-C charging.
Whether you're an MTL (Mouth-to-Lung) or RDL (Restricted Direct Lung) vaper, the adjustable wattage (up to 40W) means you can quickly go from a subtle low-wattage vape to a fuller experience with higher wattage options.
The inclusion of Boost and Eco modes provides flexibility:
Boost Mode: Prioritises powerful hits and cloud production.
Eco Mode: Maximises battery life for extended use.
In my testing, the battery performed exceptionally well, consistently delivering robust power output up until around 5% capacity.
Verdict:
5/5 - Reliable and versatile battery performance.
Pods: Flavour-Driven Innovation
The NeXlim pods are certainly an upgrade from their Xlim predecessors, which where already pretty great.
Available in 0.6 Ohm, 0.8 Ohm, and 1.2 Ohm resistances, they allow for a degree of customisation when it comes to vaping styles.
Personally the 0.8 Ohm offered a great middle of the road solution that provided me with a nice, smooth vape.
It's also worth mentioning the dual mesh system that has boosted the lifespan of the pod. Oxva claim a 200% increase in longevity which I can't fully substantiate, nevertheless they do hold an edge over the old Xlim pods.
Key features include:
Leak-Proof Technology: A five-layer system reduces the risk of messy leaks.
Top-Fill Port: Convenient and spill-free refilling.
Fixed Coil System: Easy to use and cost-effective.
During testing, the pods delivered exceptional flavour reproduction, highlighting the subtle notes of our Nerd Salts E-liquid.
The adjustable airflow slider provided precise control, making it easy to fine-tune the vapour production.
Verdict:
5/5 - A flavourful, leak-proof, and user-friendly pod system.
User Experience: Simplicity and Customisation
Ease of use is a hallmark of the NeXlim. The auto-draw activation ensures a seamless experience, while the on-screen user guide makes using the kit a breeze for newcomers.
Advanced users will appreciate the customisation options, including adjustable wattage, airflow, and screen themes.
The intuitive side airflow control adds another layer of personalisation, allowing for a smooth transition between MTL and RDL styles.
Verdict:
5/5 - Perfect for both beginners and experienced vapers.
