The Vaporesso XROS Pro represents a major upgrade to the original XROS pod system. Our comprehensive hands-on review dives into all the features, usage experience, and performance details to see if this advanced device lives up to its full potential.
As longtime vaping enthusiasts and professional reviewers, we aim to provide an authoritative, trustworthy, and impartial evaluation based on extensive real-world testing.
Unpacking the Box and Initial Impressions
Right from unboxing the XROS Pro, the quality is apparent. The stylish matte finish and smoothly rounded edges give it a premium feel. Despite the 1200mAh battery, it strikes an ideal hand-held balance at just 86g.
The tapered front housing the hidden screen makes it unlike any other pod system. The fire button positioning feels natural either for buttons or auto draw. Sliding open the side panel reveals the fill port, simple and mess-free.
Seeing the color display emerge seamlessly upon first vaping reveals the Pro’s technological sophistication compared to typical pods. The smart integration of advanced features into a stealthy aesthetic makes a strong first impression.
XROS Pro Features and Specifications
Battery Capacity
The sizable 1200mAh battery far exceeds average pod systems, allowing vaping all day even for heavy users before needing a recharge. The USB-C charging also juices it up rapidly in just 30-35 minutes.
Adjustable Power and Resistance
When using the 0.4ohm pod, pressing the fire button lets you adjust power from 5-30W in 0.5 increments to find your ideal vape intensity. The 0.6ohm pods offer presets for Eco, Normal, and Power mode.
OLED Screen
Few pods integrate a screen, but the XROS Pro’s bright OLED discretely displays vital vaping info like battery status, power setting, and puff count when fired. It disappears seamlessly when not in use.
Airflow Control
A sliding vent on the back lets you adjust airflow from a tight MTL draw up to an airy open DL inhale. The three precise airflow settings let you really personalize your preferred vape style.
Pod and Coil Type Compatibility
The XROS Pro works with the full range of previous XROS pods including 0.8ohm, 0.6ohm and new 0.4ohm resistance levels. This versatility provides options to customize your experience.
Leak Protection
Vaporesso’s innovative Leakproof SSS technology essentially eliminates any messy e-liquid leaks from the pod. Large wicking ports feed juice consistently to the coil.
Additional Features
An side-mounted lock switch prevents misfires. Smart modes like Super Pulse sustain coil power as the battery depletes. The pods’ transparent windows let you monitor juice level.
Using the XROS Pro Pod System
Filling the leakproof pod is quick and clean through the hinged top cap with its bright red accent ring around the port. Opposite the fill hole, an air inlet prevents messy glugs.
The fire button activates and controls options, but auto draw works flawlessly as well. Adjusting settings like power is easy by clicking the button after enabling it with the side switch.
The 0.4ohm pod automatically selects a great 25W setting when inserted, but we tailored it down slightly for our cooler vape preference. The ability to tweak wattage makes a big difference compared to basic pods with no adjustment.
While the XROS Pro fits larger pods, the compact footprint retains portability. The rounded edges eliminate any bulky feel. Pocket-friendly yet packed with features sums it up nicely.
Changing airflow settings is incredibly simple via the slider switch on the back—just adjust airflow holes to match your inhalation style. The range allows both loose DL hits or tighter MTL draws for nic salts.
We tested pods ranging from 0.8ohm up to the new 0.4ohm coil. Adjustable power gives versatility, but the Pro also works great in automatic mode with 0.6ohm pods, adapting the wattage cleanly based on coil resistance.
No matter the pod type, the enormous wicking ports feed lots of juice to the coil resulting in awesome flavor and vapor density. Break-in time is minimal—just a few primer puffs avoids any burnt hits.
The side lock button also secures the fire trigger against accidental activation, ideal for transport. We utilized the full range of color and info the OLED screen provides, an unexpected treat in a pod device.
Performance and Vaping Experience of the XROS Pro
In testing, the XROS Pro delivered outstanding battery life of over a full day’s vaping thanks to the large 1200mAh capacity—a pod system with the staying power of a mod.
The adjustable airflow settings made a noticeable impact, allowing us to fine tune a tight MTL draw for higher nicotine juices or open it up for direct lung hits and big vapor production. Having precise vent control is a major plus.
Both the auto draw and fire button activation functioned flawlessly during use. The Super Pulse mode also shone, providing absolutely consistent flavor and vapor quality right until the battery ran empty. Top marks for sustaining performance.
The minimal break-in time was also great—we took the first draw within a minute of filling and tasted stellar flavor immediately with the well-saturated coils. No dry or burnt hits to hamper enjoyment.
While the elongated shape differs somewhat from oval pods, we grew to appreciate the ergonomic hand fit. The size feels just right, not too bulky in pocket but allowing the hefty battery and juice capacity needed for long runtimes between refills or charges.
Charging speed lived up to its billing, taking just around 30 minutes to go from depleted to fully juiced up again—about as fast as possible for a pod system battery this size. The rapid charging really enhances the convenience factor.
Pros and Cons of the XROS Pro
Overall, the Pros far outweigh the Cons for most vapers. The juice window tint is our main gripe, but a minor flaw on an otherwise excellent device.
XROS Pro Review Verdict and Recommendation
In the growing pod system market, the Vaporesso XROS Pro stands out by delivering customizable airflow, adjustable power, and incredible battery life in a stylish slim package.
For vapers who prioritize performance and customization in a portable pod mod, the XROS Pro hits the mark. The huge battery, smart output modes, leakproof pods, rapid charging and hidden screen provide functionality rarely seen in pods.
While a bit larger than ultra-compact pods, we feel the performance merits the extra size. The added juice capacity, battery life, power flexibility and airflow options set it apart.
In summary, our extensive hands-on testing found the XROS Pro exceeds expectations for an advanced pod system while retaining sleek aesthetics. We can confidently recommend it for an outstanding pod vaping experience. The XROS Pro sets a new benchmark for performance versus portability.
