Best Starter Vape Kits (MTL)
1. Vaporesso XROS 4 Pod Kit
£24.99
Experience Level: Beginner
What We Like:
A massive hit from the XROS series, the Vaporesso XROS 4 has been at the top of vapers’ lists since it first debuted earlier this year. This kit is designed with simplicity and quality in mind above all else.
With just a single button for operation, plus adjustable airflow and inhale activation, this vape offers everything a beginner vaper needs to get started. It offers an easy-to-use power adjustment system and feels premium in the hand—and don’t even get me started on the pods!
This vape uses the same pods as other Vaporesso XROS vapes, including the newer 0.4Ω resistance, offering unparalleled flavour and vapour production with an easy clamshell top-fill mechanism. These long-lasting pods deliver clean, optimal flavour for longer than most other pods do, and the fill port is top-notch.
The XROS 4 is a marvel of vape hardware craftsmanship: sturdy, reliable, and flawless. It’s no wonder it’s been one of our best-selling vapes this year. If you’re looking for something unobtrusive, stunning, and flavourful that can recharge at the drop of a hat, the XROS 4 is one of the best vape kits you can pick.

2. OXVA Xlim Pro 2 Pod Kit
£24.99
Experience Level: Intermediate
What We Like:
Everyone who reads my reviews knows how I feel about OXVA vapes—they’re reliable, flavourful, durable, and super user-friendly. The OXVA Xlim series is perfect for all MTL vapers, and last year, the original OXVA Xlim Pro was our best selling vape kit.
Now with a larger 1300mAh battery backed by 25-minute fast charging, the Xlim Pro 2 combines ease-of-use with customisation, culminating in a blissfully user-friendly vape with tons of options. Adjustable airflow and wattage let you fine-tune your vape, and the interface is really seamless.
There are plenty of pod options for the Xlim Pro 2, with refillable pods ranging from 0.4Ω all the way up to 1.2Ω. You can even use the OXVA Xlim prefilled pods on nights out or while travelling if you need a fuss-free disposable option.
The prefilled pods come with 2ml of 20mg (2%) strength disposable-flavoured E-Liquids, offering a disposable alternative alongside its versatility.
I can’t stress enough how much I love this vape. The original Xlim Pro was my favourite of all time, and I didn’t think anything could top it until this bad boy came around. I promise I’m not a shill!

OXVA Xlim Pro 2 | £24.99 | 1300mAh | Intermediate | 67g | 114.5mm x 25mm x 15mm |
3. Aspire Gotek Pro Pod Kit
£19.99
Experience Level: Beginner
What We Like:
The latest vape in Aspire’s Gotek series is this sturdy yet beginner-friendly matchbox-style pod vape: the Gotek Pro.
Designed with all the ease-of-use of its predecessor, the Gotek Pro boasts a massive 1500mAh battery, which should last most vapers at least 2 days before requiring a recharge.
It has no buttons, menus, or settings—just a sturdy adjustable airflow toggle on the bottom, which allows you to fine-tune your draw to suit your vaping style.
Refills are a breeze too, with 0.8Ω mesh pods that deliver consistent flavour without hugely depleting the battery.
I had the pleasure of reviewing this kit, and I can see why everyone is clamouring for a taste of the Gotek Pro.

4. Vaporesso XROS Pro Pod Kit
£29.99
Experience Level: Intermediate
What We Like:
The Vaporesso XROS Pro is the new kid on the block, but it’s already one of the best vape kits on the market.
With its large 1200mAh battery and ultra-fast 35-minute charging, plus a sleek little screen that displays your battery level in 1% increments, the XROS Pro is a durable premium kit for intermediate MTL vapers.
The XROS Pro comes included with 2 of the new 0.4Ω (ohm) Vaporesso XROS pods, which are designed for RDTL vaping but work great for MTL as well.
With these pods installed, you can fine-tune your wattage to get the perfect cloud, and you can tailor your airflow to suit your vaping style to a T.
Vapers love the XROS Pro for its customisation features and versatility. It’s compatible with all the pods in the Vaporesso XROS series, from 0.4Ω all the way up to 1.2Ω, so you can try all the different resistances until you find your favourite.

Vaporesso XROS Pro | £29.99 | 1200mAh | Intermediate | 86g | 119.7mmx 24.4mm x 18.4mm |
5. OXVA Xlim Go Pod Kit
£11.99
Experience Level: Beginner
What We Like:
The OXVA Xlim Go was billed as OXVA’s take on an alternative to disposable vapes, offering fuss-free buttonless activation and an unobtrusive interface. The only setting to tailor here is the airflow, so you can enjoy your vape without all the hassle.
Despite its low price point, the Xlim Go is sturdy and high-quality, featuring a faux leather grip and a durable metal chassis. You wouldn’t expect such a cheap vape to pack a punch, but the Xlim Go can output 30W of power from its tiny body.
Backed by a 1000mAh battery, this vape utilises auto-coil detection to sense the resistance of the pod you’re using and set the wattage accordingly—so, again, no fuss. Simply pop in your pod and vape!
Like the other OXVA Xlim vapes, this one is compatible with the full range of OXVA Xlim pods, including the V2, V3, and prefilled pods options. So, you can get the same great flavour you’d find in the Pro device without the extra cost!
There are a lot of alternatives to disposable vapes on the market these days, but they often skimp on quality to keep their prices low. Instead, OXVA keeps the cost down by excluding the unnecessary USB-C cable (we all have one lying around, right?) and by including only 1 pod with the device.

OXVA Xlim Go | £11.99 | 1000mAh | Beginner | 41g | 113.7mm x 26mm x 14.6mm |

Best Sub-Ohm Vape Kits (DTL)
1. VooPoo Drag S2 Pod Vape Kit
£37.99
Experience Level: Intermediate
What We Like:
This versatile sub-ohm kit supports MTL, RDTL, and DTL vaping depending on your chosen coils, and the vape includes everything you need to get started (minus the E-Liquid).
With up to 60W of adjustable power and a built-in 2500mAh battery, the Drag S2 solidifies the VooPoo Drag series’ status as one of the best all-round sub-ohm line-ups available on the market today.
Available in 7 gorgeous finishes, each with unique details and a premium vegan leather grip, the vape is as easy on the eyes as it is on the throat. With the PnP X pod tank and the included PnP X coils, the Drag S2 can chuck dense sub-ohm clouds like a pro.
VooPoo says these new coils can get through over 100ml of E-Liquid before they need changing—which is one or two whole shortfill bottles.
Plus, the PnP X coil range offers MTL and RDTL options for vapers who want to enjoy nic salts as well, though you’ll have to purchase these coils separately.

£89.99
Experience Level: Expert
What We Like:
One of the best vape kits available today, the GeekVape Aegis Legend 3 could probably survive a nuclear missile—okay, maybe not, but it could withstand a heck of a lot of damage. Its IP68 rating means it’s waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof: built to last.
The Aegis Legend 3 can output a whopping 200W of power backed by two 18650 vape batteries (sold separately), with 2A fast charging, adjustable top airflow, and a stunning 0.96″ TFT colour display.
The vape offers an array of power modes, including a fancy-shmancy memory mode that allows you to save several of your favourite custom configurations.
Plus, this is the first model we’ve seen that has palm recognition—meaning you can set the device to only unlock when it’s in the palm of your hand, preventing accidental pocket firing.
The Aegis Legend 3 houses the 2ml top-fill GeekVape Z Fli Sub-Ohm tank, which uses the popular GeekVape Z coils for high-VG E-Liquids. These coils can handle everything from a mild 70% VG blend all the way up to a 100% VG E-Liquid.
