Read Time: 2 Minutes
If you prefer filling your own pods, 2025 is the biggest year yet for open pod systems. The battle for the top spot is heating up between Uwell's Caliburn G4 series and Vaporesso's XROS lineup.
Here is the complete breakdown of the best devices you can grab right now at NYX Vape, plus the best e-liquids to pair with them.
1. The Uwell Caliburn G4 Lineup (Flavour Specialists)
Uwell has expanded the legendary Caliburn family with the G4 series, introducing touchscreens and "Pulse" modes to pod systems.
-
Uwell Caliburn G4 Pro: The new flagship. It features a massive full-length touchscreen, 35W max output, and the new "Storm" and "Waves" modes for customizing your hit.
-
Uwell Caliburn G4 Pro Koko: The box-shaped sibling. It packs the same high-tech touchscreen and 35W power but in a palm-sized, square form factor with a larger battery.
-
Uwell Caliburn G4 Mini: The stealth option. It strips away the screen for a minimalist design but keeps the same G-Pod platform flavour performance.
-
Uwell Caliburn G4: The standard model and the easiest entry point into the G4 platform, with the same G-Pod flavour performance in a straightforward package.
2. The Vaporesso XROS Lineup (Reliability Kings)
Vaporesso offers an XROS for every type of vaper, and they all share the same leak-resistant COREX pod platform.
-
Vaporesso XROS 5: The current XROS kit, featuring COREX 3.0 technology for longer pod life and faster charging, an OLED screen, and three output modes.
-
Vaporesso XROS Pro: The XROS with 0.4ohm pod capability for restricted direct lung (RDL) vaping, plus variable wattage up to 30W and a side lock switch.
3. The Heavy Hitter: Vaporesso Luxe XR Max 2
If you want the power of a tank in a pod system, this is it.
-
Why we love it: It pushes up to 80W and has a 3200mAh battery, making it the only pod system that truly performs like a box mod.
🌟 Top E-Liquid Recommendations (2025)
A great device needs great juice. Here are our top picks to pair with your new kit:
1. For Fruit Lovers: Lemon Drop - Peach
-
Flavour Profile: A perfect blend of sweet, ripe peaches with a zesty lemon kick. It shines brightly in the Caliburn G4's mesh coils.
2. For a Bold "All Day" Vape: Koil Killaz - Savage
-
Flavour Profile: A refreshing mix of watermelon and strawberry with a kiwi finish. This is a Canadian staple that tastes incredible in the XROS series.
3. For Smoothness: Banana Bang - Strawberry Orange
-
Flavour Profile: A unique twist on fruit flavours. It starts with a subtle, creamy banana base and explodes with ripe strawberry and citrus orange.
-
Why we love it: It provides a smooth, velvety texture that balances perfectly with the punchy flavour of high-end pod systems.
