My First Impressions: Just got it today. Takes quite a while to charge initially (Almost four hours for me). Feels a bit cheap (Plastic), but seems to be well put together. Not as cheaply built as most plastic box mods though. Not sure if could withstand a hard fall, but hopefully that won't happen with mine. I'm particularly impressed that it hasn't cut me off (Seems like I hit the shutoff a lot on the MVP- Maybe that's just me; I don't care for the button on the MVP, but this button is awesome for me. I also like the placement better). Good airflow (Not too airy or tight of a draw for me). Display is easy to read, and functions are simple (Has everything I need, but not difficult to find). Has the range for those that desire a lighter hit, and for those that want the very high voltage/wattage. Still to early for me to tell, but so far I'm pleased. One thing I wish, was that the base was a bit wider (Mine has toppled over a few times on the desk). I really like the middle being curved. Fits nice in my hand (I have average sized hands for a guy).

I have one and I am impressed with it. Handy in the hand and vapes great, no malfunctions what so ever, I have had it for a few days now and have been using it non stop. First charge does take about 4 hours but last roughly about 2 days as earlier posted. Put it thru its paces with several atty's and clearos and tried the different levels of volts all the way up to the highest. All told I am impressed with it and will be one of my main PV's in rotation.
Edit: picked mine up rather reasonable before they came to venders at $53

I ordered one today and looking forward to getting it. I have a gripper and a mvp but the Groove has VW which I like plus the 3800 Mah battery so I had to have one.
I've had one for a few days and I enjoy it. The battery lasts all day. The only down sides for me is the lack of ego threads and mainly that it won't do pass-thru mode so I can leave it on my desk and vape/charge. The device is in a plastic shell though that doesn't bother me for the price I paid. I think the button is well placed, it feels good in the hand and the screen and menu system is just dead simple.
I give it 7.5 out of 10 taking into account pricing and the above.
So far I would recommend it.

I'm growing fond of this APV. It's 12:31 am my time (EDT), and I still have 3.6 V left on the battery. I've been vaping it exclusively since approximately 5pm (EDT) yesterday (Primarily at 8-9 watts; I also tried voltage for about an hour {Just for kicks}).
Battery finally needs charging (Says "Low V" on the display). I got roughly 40 hours of vape time before recharge. Awesome.
I can only see 4 things wrong with this device.
1) it's bigger than a gripper,(smaller is better)
2)it's still made out of cheap plastic (metal is better)
3)it doesn't have replaceable batteries
4)it's made by smoktech.
Other than those issues it's probably an ok device.

just got mine in the mail today. Thing rocks so far, pretty much pressure testing it, gone through around 12 mils of liquid at 12 watts, hasnt got hot and the battery has dropped from the initial 3.8 it had to 3.7.....hoosier e cig had them in stock, dont know if they still do, especially seeing that they were the cheapest I found

With my VV Gripper, I change how I hold it alternatively and fire it either with my index finger one way or my thumb the other way. Both ways are comfortable for me.
The Gripper uses a top fire button and I like it much better than front ones on my other box mods.
lol that was funny we posted at the same time. I use mine the same with my index finger on my left hand but my thumb when I use my right hand but I'm missing half my index on the right so some times I use my middle finger.
