iTaste MVP Pro or iStick 50W

[MotherOfCats]

I am trying to decide between between the Innokin iTaste MVP 3.0 Pro or the eleaf istick 50W

Personally I like the way the iTaste looks, but I can't really say which one would be a better set up. I only have an EVOD battery right now, but I want to upgrade as soon as I get the money.

Anyone have either? Or both? What are pros and cons from real users? I can read reviews whatnot until I'm cross-eyed but I would love to chat with someone who actually has used one.

Well from reading you already know the differences in specs such as battery and size. Ive used both, belonged to other people, and liked the feel of the istick better in my hand. Has a little bit more battery as well. Not to mention it can adjust wattage in tenths whereas the mvp does it in half watts. But if youve read alot about them you already have read some of the problems with them. Which did i choose? Mvp 3.0 pro. I liked the feel and battery life of the istick better but i really wont need all that battery in one day, i always charge at night. I mainly went with the mvp because its 10 higher watts, which i will need, and i like the quality of innokin products. I got it from dnavapor for $45 shipped with a $10 coupon readily available online. Should have it monday. Do you have a nearby shop where you can hold and play with them both?

I'v had the mvp 3 pro for a week and I am loving it. I cannot give any info on the istick but I have absolutely loved my mpv. Very high quality and awesome battery life. So personally I am loving it, though I have never touched an istick so take this advice as pretty biased.

I have had my 3.0 for awhile and I love it. It is super durable, takes falls like a champ, and it has an awesome battery life. I can usually get two days of heavy vaping on my 3.0 without it dying. Also, I like that in a pinch I can charge my phone from it. I have not used an Istick, just thought I would share my experience with the mvp.

I have both and I use kanger subtanks on both no issues
both feel good in the hand.
Istick is cheaper

 

[VanillaCoke]

I would recommend the iStick it is cheaper and better imo.

I have both and like both. While the MVP 3 Pro does have the advantage of 10 more watts, I personally prefer the iStick 50 because of the smaller size. The iStick 50 also has the rounded edges while the MVP 3 Pro has sharper edges, so the iStick 50 fits more comfortably in my hand. There has also been some reported issues with the iStick 50 (autofiring, one has been reported here as catching on fire, although I have had zero issues with mine) so if that worries you, then choosing the MVP 3 Pro would be a good choice.

I have the MVP 3 Pro and I love it. I personally would not buy the istick 50 because of the problems that have been reported. I have not seen any problems reported with the MVP3 Pro

 

[Baditude]

I'd go with the MVP Pro. Innokin is a very reputable brand and makes products built to last the test of time.

The Eleaf iSticks are new to the market and their durability and reliability are not tested over time. The iStick 50 in particular has had numerous issues as mentioned, most notably alarming autofire issues and catching on fire. Also, Eleaf has not been honoring any vendor warranties unless purchased directly through Eleaf. Eleaf has said there are a lot of clones now on the market.

Given those 2 choices, I would say MVP Pro. It's pricier, bigger and heavier. It's also very rectangular so it doesn't feel as good in hand. The iStick 50 has had more than it's share of problems and some are dangerous.

Depending on your vaping style and cash, the iStick 30w might be a good choice. Very few problems reported. Very portable and inexpensive.

I actually just received my mvp3 pro in the mail today and loving it so far. Innokin builds a solid product and it will be a good complement to my mech mod when I'm going to be out all day and need the extra battery life without hauling around batteries and chargers.

From the research that I did before I bought mine, it sounded like the istick 50s had a fair share of issues when they came out. Sounds like a lot of them were resolved but it still made me leery about getting one.

 

[Hitcat44]

All things considered, it's just really hard to do better than Innokin.
Again, when taking all Facets into account and weighing the end result.
Just my experience.

I have a friend who has went through 3 Isticks and I talked him into getting a MVP because I have been using 1 about a month now and its by far a better product. The MVP is built to last and Innokin stands behind their products. Its a shame Istick can't say the same. MVP Pro is by far the better product.

MVP. Spend the money, you'll be happier.

If you can deal with only 40 watts, the coolfire IV

 

[KermitTheFog]

I would go with the iTaste unless your wanting a device with more features. MVP has a external charging feature (for phones and jazz) which is really cool. Also, iTaste feels better in the hand IMO but I have small hands. Both are great devices though.

 

[The Shotcaller]

Reviews for the istick 50w talk about a lot of lemons. I have the 30w and it has worked fine for me, recently got the subox as the 50w was not in stock at my store

 

[IllinoisPlumber]

I have the istick 50w and haven't had an issue one with it. Been vaping heavily on it for a lil over a month with several different attys.

 

[VCross]

I was actually considering both of these mods at one time but ended up getting an XPro M80 insted. Mostly because I read a lot of bad reviews for the iStick (fire button sticking, failing to take a charge, etc) and the MVP didn't seem that appealing to me. The Xpro has a little less battery life than the iStick (4000 mah vs 4400) but it can fire up to 80W and does 1/10th increments similar to the MVP. For $10 more than the iStick I'd say it's a sweet deal.

I got my istick 50w back in march and used it exclusively up until a couple weeks ago. I wanted more power to make bigger builds, so I got a sigelei 150w. Even having the sigelei, I almost always take the istick with me when i go fishing. It has plenty of power to run the subtank mini i take with me while fishing. It is small, and has never given me any issues. Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with either device.
