Hiya folks.
Hope you all had a good weekend,time for another review of a pod device.
This device was sent to me by my friends at Sourcemore for the purpose of this review,the pod kit in question is the Uwell Tenet Koko.
As per my usual MO let us get started with some pics which should give you a general idea of what this device is and if it will be suited for your vaping needs.

Unboxing and first impressions:
Gotta say the box you get it looks pretty cool:
Lift the tab and there you got the pod and a little box on the side with everything you need to start huffing and puffing.
Gotta give Uwell the greatest of high fives,didn't skimp and included a second coil in this kit,that is always a good sign and it saves you in the case that one of the coils is a dud.
Doesn't happen often but sometimes it does,imagine getting this as a starter kit and either you accidentally burn the coil or maybe the coil was a dud,do not despair my friend you got a spare.
Small but rugged,while holding it you get good solid vibes due to the main body of the mod is made of Aluminum Alloy.
I got the red & black and it looks pretty awesome,black on the lower part of the pod then fades away to being totally red on top,awesome paint job and then small touches like rivet like finishing on it just gives it a nice look.
Also have a small slit in the pod right below where the cartridge is so you can see the level of e-liquid,seems Uwell thought of everything.
Vaping time:
I had some nic salts leftover from some previous pod reviews so i decided to start with that.
Decided to use the 1.2ohm coil first and yeah this might be small but it does pack a punch,used that coil for about a day and a half until i switched to the 0.8ohm coil.
The 0.8ohm i enjoyed a bit more since it was a bit more like my style of vaping,this pod has airflow control which i kept fully open for the duration of the time i was using it.
Not a MTL user,like never i mean apart from reviews i am strictly a DL (restricted) so i had to dual use this pod with my usual vaping device but a couple of hits with the Tenet Koko sure kept the nic needs in check.
As opposed to the Caliburn Tenet (none Koko) this one doesn't have a fire button,just pure auto draw...when i found out this part had me a bit worried but do not despair the auto draw worked like a charm every time.
Difference between a ''just good'' product and a GREAT product is the attention to detail,or at least that is my personal opinion.
Small things like the small slit that shows the current level of e-liquid,its located right where the cartridge is so just a quick peek and you know if its time to fill er' up or not.
Other things like the haptic vibration,if the battery is below 30% you will get a slight vibration,that right there is a good feature to have because it will remind us its time to charge the pod.
Apart from that you also got a LED light at the bottom right near the charging port that will use 3 different colors depending on the level of the battery:
-Green 100% to 60%
-Blue 60% to 30%
-Red if the the battery is 30% or under.
If 30% or under that the LED will flash 10 times and you will get a vibration from the pod device.
Filling the pod?
Easy peasy,just grab the mouthpiece and rock it to one side and then back the other and it should be off,once off the fill port is right there so just jam the tip of your e-liquid bottle and squeeze.
Shape wise? well that is one thing i gotta comment on,you either love it or hate it.
In my case it just isn't for me,holding the pod is awkward,tried other brands of pod with similar shape and i can never seem to get the proper grip on it.
This is just my personal taste,this is not to blame on Uwell,maybe someone with smaller hands will find this pod comfortable to use,or maybe they just prefer the elongated taller and slimmer version...in that case the Uwell Tenet (no koko) should be what you are looking for.
Pros:
-Packagin,i mean the box where the is stored looks pretty cool.
-Design wise a bold choice from Uwell but it paid off,looks damn awesome
-Attention to detail,from the small slit in the pod so you can see your level of e-liquid to the rivet like finishing to the paint job,kudos on that
-Second coil in the box (huge pro)
-Performance wise these coils deliver the goods
Cons:
Can't really come up with any cons.
On a more personal note just the size/shape of the pod is what keeps me from using it as my everyday vaping device.
This is not a critique on Uwell,a lot of users like the small square shape and when they hold it in their hand it feels comfortable,for me that is not the case but then again i am weird so that is all on me
Would i recommend this device:
If you looking for a pod device that looks cool,performs like a charm and delivers a nice flavorful MTL vape this is the device you want.
If you prefer a taller not so square like pod just choose the Caliburn Tenet (no Koko),same performance but different shape...also the Caliburn Tenet has a fire button in case that is something you want.
But if auto draw is your thing you can't go wrong with the Koko,i huffed and puffed and not a single time did this device not deliver the goods.

Thanks all for reading my review,hope you liked it
I'm very much about the flavor output. I suppose I had high expectations that it would exceed the 2021 Z tank released with many of the more recent GeekVape Aegis kits, but that hasn't been my experience, unfortunately. And that would bring us to the M coils.
