• The Vaporesso XROS 4 charges over USB-C at 2A in about 30 minutes.

About the Vaporesso XROS 4 Pod Kit

The Vaporesso XROS 4 Pod Kit is a slim aluminium refillable pod kit built mainly for MTL vaping, a tight, cigarette-like draw. Two mesh pods come in the box, so it covers MTL and looser RDL with nothing extra to buy.

Switching off disposables is the main reason people buy it. The draw is closer to a cigarette than a big-puff bar, auto-draw means no button to learn, and the ongoing cost is e-liquid plus an XROS Corex 2.0 replacement pod.

Key Specs Customers Check

• Battery: 1000mAh built-in. A full day for most vapers.
• Power: up to 16W, three modes. Steps the hit up or down.
• Pod capacity: 2ml (UK TPD limit). Two to three refills a day typically.
• Charging: USB-C 2A, about 30 minutes. Ten minutes covers an evening.

Pick Your Inhale: MTL or RDL

MTL (mouth to lung) is a tight draw held in the mouth first, like a cigarette. RDL (restricted direct lung) is looser, straight to the lungs, more vapour.

• 0.8Ω pod, airflow closed: MTL. Best for 20mg nic salts and ex-smokers.
• 0.4Ω pod, airflow open: RDL. More vapour and warmth, drinks e-liquid faster.
• 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω pods, sold separately: tightest draw, longest life.

Unsure? Start on the 0.8Ω pod, the most popular resistance across MTL vape kits.

Key Features

• COREX 2.0 mesh: flavour holds to the end of the pod, not just day one.
• Pulse Mode: holds power steady as the battery drains, so the last puff matches the first.
• Auto-draw or button firing: vape it like a disposable, or press to fire.

Pods and E-Liquid Pairing

Match the liquid to the pod or it dies early. The 0.8Ω, 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω pods want 50/50 or 10ml nic salts, thin enough to wick and smooth on the throat. The 0.4Ω and 0.6Ω pods take 70/30 shortfills.

A 20 a day smoker usually starts at 20mg nic salt on the 0.8Ω pod. Ten a day or fewer suits 10mg. Sweet bar-style salts cook the mesh fastest.

Battery, Pod Life and Running Cost

The battery covers a full day for most people, less on heavy RDL use. Vaporesso rates a pod at six to eight refills, so one to two weeks daily. Community reports agree: about a week on standard nic salts, three to five days on very sweet bar salts, up to two weeks on lighter liquids. Pod life, not the kit price, is what decides your real cost. A four pack is £8.99, so about £2.25 a week, and most people land near £5 a week with liquid, against roughly £18 a week on three big-puff disposables.

Compatibility and Refills

This is the XROS 4, not the XROS 4 Mini or the XROS 5. Pods are shared across the family, devices are not.

• All XROS pods fit: 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω, in COREX 2.0 and COREX 3.0.
• The 0.4Ω pod needs the power of the XROS 4, 5 or Pro series and will not run on an original XROS or XROS Mini.

Colours and Finishes

Ten colours are stocked. Black and Silver suit anyone wanting a kit that looks like a pen, and hide fingerprints best. Champagne Gold reads smart rather than loud, which appeals to vapers in their forties and fifties. Bloody Mary, Sunset Neon, Lilac Purple, Pink Mint and Pastel Palette suit those treating it as an accessory.

What Is in the Box

• 1 x XROS 4 device
• 1 x 0.4Ω mesh XROS pod, pre-installed
• 1 x 0.8Ω mesh XROS pod
• 1 x USB Type-C cable
• 1 x manual and warranty card

No e-liquid is included in the box.

How to Set Up Your XROS 4

1. Charge fully, then pull the pod out and lift the mouthpiece off to expose the fill port.
2. Fill leaving a small air gap, then click the mouthpiece back on.
3. Wait five minutes before the first puff. Skipping this burns the pod.
4. Push the pod in until it clicks, take two gentle draws, then vape normally.
5. Set the airflow slider for your draw. Three fire-button presses changes mode.

How to Make It Last Longer

• Prime every new pod. Five minutes, every time.
• Do not chain vape or run it dry. Pause between draws, refill before the last drops.
• Sweeteners cost you pods. Dark, sweet liquids halve pod life.
• Store it upright. Pods left sideways in a warm pocket are the main cause of leaks.

Price Comparison

Checked live in August 2026: Vape Superstore lists this kit at £17.95 with a nic salt included, UK Vape World at £21.99 with a free 100ml shortfill. Prices move, so check before buying.

Pods cost about £2.25 a week, in line with most RDL vape kits and cheaper than any prefilled system. The wider Vaporesso range shares the same pod, so upgrading later does not waste spares. Against the OXVA Xlim Pro 2, the XROS 4 charges faster but holds less battery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an XROS 4 pod last?

About one week, or six to eight refills, for a daily vaper. Sweet bar-style salts cut that to three to five days. Lighter 50/50 liquids stretch it to two weeks.

Which pods fit the Vaporesso XROS 4?

All XROS series pods fit, 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω, in COREX 2.0 and COREX 3.0. UK pods hold 2ml.

Is the XROS 4 MTL or DTL?

Both. Closed airflow on the 0.8Ω pod gives a tight MTL draw, open airflow on the 0.4Ω pod a restricted direct lung draw. Not a cloud device.

What e-liquid should I use?

50/50 or nic salts in the 0.8Ω, 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω pods. 70/30 shortfills in the 0.4Ω and 0.6Ω pods. Thick liquid in a high resistance pod causes dry hits.

Why is my XROS 4 leaking?

Usually overfilling. UK vapers on vape forums report that a tight bottle nozzle floods the pod, and the excess then runs out through the bottom airflow holes. Leave an air gap when filling, press the mouthpiece until it clicks, and store it upright.

Why is my XROS 4 flashing red, blue or green?

That is the battery indicator, not a fault. Green is roughly 100 to 70 per cent charge, blue 70 to 30 per cent, and red under 30 per cent. A red flash on every puff means it needs charging.

How do I change the power mode?

Press the fire button three times, then press again to cycle the modes. Four presses locks it.

Is the XROS 4 good for a first refillable kit?

Yes, if you want a cigarette-like draw and simple controls. Auto-draw makes it behave like a disposable, and upkeep is refilling plus a weekly pod swap.
