    Once again I say hello and welcome back for another review, today's review device was sent to me from vaporesso and it's the newest member in the Xros family of devices. The Xros Nano is a 1000mAh Pod device that has a sleek look to it because of it's simplistic design having no buttons or display screen. Being a auto-draw only device can be a good or bad mode of operation depending on just how well it performs which I'll cover later in the review.

    UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS


    Vaporesso always delivers their devices with a nice presentation of which even though this is a simple Pod Device Vaporesso still packages it very nicely with a slide out within the shipping box and the Xros Mini with the 0.8Ω mesh pod pre-installed tucked in it's cutout with your extra pod 1.2Ω, lanyard chain, type-c charge cord, user manual and warranty card in a built in lift up box below it.

    Picking up the device I noticed first off it's a lightweight making it capable of shirt pocket carry. The 2nd thing I noticed about the device was there are no buttons or display screen so no adjustment for watts or volts and no fire button making it a auto-draw only device.

    Very few auto-draw only devices actually perform well but past Xros devices that I've reviewed did a great job with auto-draw and the airflow control on the Nano is the same style that's used on the Xros 2, this is a fully adjustable airflow control that has a pretty good range of tight to loose

    Because the Nano is so small Vaporesso includes a lanyard connection as well as a lanyard for those that like to hang around their neck.

    The lanyard attachment is in the usual spot on the device that most pod devices that offer this option is, it's very small and is hardly noticeable.

    Before you can use the device a protective sticker that Vaporesso puts on the bottom of the pod that's pre-installed must be removed, I don't know why this sticker is on it because it's a auto-draw only device, their production line probably automatically puts it on the pods because these pods are compatible with the entire Xros line of devices and some of them have manual button activation.


    20220130_091045.jpg


    Pods connect magnetically to the device using 2 rectangle shaped magnets on the outside of the contact and contact pins, the connection is strong as it is on other Xros pods. In the center of the recess of the device the auto-draw airflow tube can be seen.

    Filling the pod is done by snapping the mouthpiece cover off and filling through the Red fill port, I really like this filling method because the fill port acts like a one way valve allowing juice to enter but sealing back up preventing it from escaping out and being top fill allows you to fill without having to remove the pod from the device.

    The Xros Nano uses a type-c charge port that is located on the bottom of the device, normally this bothers me because I like my devices to be in the standing up position when charging but the Nano is so small and doesn't takes up a bunch of space I'm fine with it's location being on the bottom.

    The side opposite of the lanyard connection is where the single tiny airflow inlet hole is located up toward the top of the device, in the time of using it I never inadvertently covered the airflow hole being as high as it is. Closing the hole with my finger completely shut the airflow which tells me it's sealed very well.

    One half of the Nano is smooth to the touch while the other side having diagonal lines give a textured feel and help to keep a grip on it, the split look of being smooth and textured is one I like. You probably wont even notice it but I like the little vapor symbol etched on the side of the pod.

    If you own a Xros 2 you will see the same airflow control on the Nano as well, it's in a waterdrop shape or as I call it a lightbulb. Auto-draw works very well and you can get a pretty tight MTL draw with the airflow shut all the way, fully open is a semi loose draw, more on the tighter side than loose, you can get a RDL vape fully open but it's way to restricted. Vaporesso uses a pulse mode with the Axon chip inside, you can feel the pulse and sometimes hear it as well.

    Branding has been kept to a minimum have only 1 location on the device with the Vaporesso name, under the Vaporesso name are 4 tiny LED lights that act as a battery meter, they are tiny but very bright and also light with each vape you take as well as when charging.

    BATTERY STRENGTH LIGHT INDICATORS

    * 4 Lights - 80-100%

    * 3 Lights - 60-80%

    * 2 Lights - 30-60%

    * 1 Light - 30% Or Under

    USING THE VAPORESSO XROSS NANO

    20220130_130350.jpg



    In the time I've been using the Xros Nano the device performed just as it was intended to perform, I had no failure to fire or leaking or even seeping of a drop of juice. The flavor was good on both pods but my preferred one was the 0.8Ω mesh.

    Airflow worked as I expected it to because it's the same as on the Xros 2 as the Xross Nano is almost the same device but in a different body shape with some features left out for a more simplistic device.

    It doesn't have a fire button being only auto-draw but the auto-draw works so well on it that I don't mind and I'm a button guy.

    When the pulsing is heard sometimes it can be annoying, I found the tighter the airflow is the more it can be heard, all I want to hear is airflow.

    Being as lightweight and tiny as it is a shirt pocket carry works fine and you almost forget it's there.

    This may not have all the same features of the Xros 2 but having a fully adjustable airflow control is a big one and a auto-draw feature that works very well especially because it it's the only option on the device.

    With a 1000mAh internal battery and being a pulse styled device you should get a full day or close to a day on a single charge depending on your vaping consumption.

    I think Vaporesso achieved what they wanted with the Xros Nano, if you liked the Xros 2 chances are your going to like the Xros Nano. I would like to thank Milo and Vaporesso for providing the Xros Nano for the purpose of this review.

    THANK YOU

    Another good one Bob. I just couldn't get used to the shape of this one after using the Xros and Xros 2 for so long.
    Thanks Hit, it does take some getting used to the small square shape because in deep pockets it can get lost inside them while it's less likely with a more traditional shape device, I guess that's why they fabricated and included a lanyard connection on it.

    I hate lanyards.
