Mini pod
The Xros 3 Nano is a lightweight, rectangular, relatively flat pod. On one side, the brand name is engraved in a parallel design, and a large Xros logo covers the other side. At only 14 mm thick, it will fit easily into a pocket or bag. Weighing it at barely 50 grams, you might forget it’s even there. The top corner has a loop for the neck strap it comes with.
A USB-C port on the bottom of the Xros 3 Nano allows fast charging of the built-in 1000 mAh battery. You can also vape while it’s charging. A small LED, tucked into a slot on one side, lights up during charging to show the battery level. The battery capacity is as you’d expect for this small size of pod.
Along one edge, above the USB-C port, there’s a button to adjust the airflow that cools the coil in the cartridge. It does change the draw sensation slightly, but you’ll notice a bigger difference when you change between the cartridges and feel the effect of the other coil.
To get a tight draft, you need to really restrict the air intake. The Xros 3 Nano has no buttons and no settings to adjust.
It makes vapour when you inhale. During our tests, we found the pod to be responsive and there was no noticeable lag.
Cartridges that do the job
As with most pods, the cartridge sits on top of the battery. It’s held in place by two magnets that really do a great job. We didn’t notice any side-to-side play or looseness. The 2 ml tank volume is average for pods of this size on the market right now.
It detects the coil value automatically and there’s nothing to do except fill the cartridge as necessary with your favourite e-liquid.
You fill the Xros 3 cartridges as you’d expect, and they’re compatible with the brand’s other models ( Xros 3, Xros 3 Mini). To access the filling hole, just remove the flattened mouthpiece. It’s easy to do – pressing the sides of the mouthpiece releases it from the cartridge. We recommend using only the thinnest e-liquid bottle tips for ease of filling and to avoid any annoying spills.
Two cartridges are supplied in the box. This is a real advantage for new vapers, so they can experiment with different sensations without buying anything extra. One cartridge has a value of 0.6 ohm and is made of mesh. It offers very responsive indirect inhalation (into the mouth then the lungs, like a tobacco cigarette) or a very restricted direct inhalation vape (directly into the lungs).
The flavours are pleasant and reasonably true. The amount of vapour is what you’d expect for the size of this pod. It delivers better flavours with fruit-flavoured e-liquids, and these come through better with the mesh coil.
The Xros 3 Nano is a good spare vape or a good one to start with. The only thing we dislike is the use of disposable cartridges, which are worse for the environment than conventional coils.
