I’ll be straight with you - when I first got my hands on the XROS 4 Mini, I wasn’t expecting much. Another pod system, right? But after using it as my daily driver for the past month, I’ve got to admit, this little device has really grown on me.
First thing that caught me off guard was the feel. When I pulled it out of the box, the aluminum body actually made me do a double-take. It’s got this solid, premium feel that I wasn’t expecting. Not trying to oversell it, but it feels like something that should cost more than it does.
Here’s what you get in the box:
●The device itself with a 1000mAh battery
●One 0.4Ω mesh pod (holds 3ml)
●USB-C charging cable
●User manual & warranty card
I accidentally dropped this thing twice (once on my kitchen tile, once getting out of my car), and it’s still looking pretty much brand new. I’ve had it in my pocket with my keys for weeks, and it’s holding up way better than my previous vapes.
I’m a big fan of fruity menthol juices (yeah, I know, basic), and I’ve been using my favorite strawberry ice in this pod. I’ve got to say, I’m picking up on flavors I’ve never noticed before; everything tastes more vivid.
The airflow adjustment is probably my favorite feature. I like a tight draw with my morning coffee, but prefer it a bit looser throughout the day. This lets me do both without any fuss. Just slide the little button, and you’re good to go. Simple but effective - just how I like it.
About the battery life - Not chain vaping, but I take breaks throughout my workday. I’m easily getting a full day’s use, sometimes into the next morning.
After using this for almost a month, here’s what I’m loving:
● It just feels solid - no rattling or cheap plastic feel
● Flavor is consistently good (even with my well-used pod)
● The airflow adjustment actually does something
● Fits perfectly in my pocket without being obvious
A few things I wish were different:
● Would love a more detailed battery indicator
● Can’t swap out the drip tip
● New pods are a bit tight at first (they do break in though)
Should you grab one? Well, if you’re like me and just want something reliable that doesn’t feel cheap, I’d say go for it. It’s been perfect for:
● My daily work setup
● Quick trips out
● Situations where I don’t want to carry a bigger mod
● Getting that cigarette-like draw when I’m craving it
For me, XROS 4 Mini is not perfect, but it’s really good at what it does. It’s reliable, feels great in hand, and gives me consistent flavor all day. Sometimes that’s all you really need.
Rating: 9/10
Here’s a little tip I discovered: try adjusting the airflow while you’re vaping. It helped me find my sweet spot, and I bet it’ll help you too.
