    Hello once again folks and welcome to another review of a Pod device and today's device is from Voopoo called the Vinci Pod (ROYAL EDITION) and all past Vinci Pods are compatible with it. This is a more upscaled look to the Vinci and it also has a 4 LED battery meter that is color coded for battery strength. Without further ado lets check out the (ROYAL EDITION) Vinci Pod first prior to my review of it.

    UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS


    When I received the package I was surprised at the size because I knew Voopoo was sending 2 Pod Devices and this package was much larger than a package containing 2 Pod devices should be, Voopoo made a gift box of the Vinci Pod Royal Edition for reviewers.

    I don't know if these will be available for purchase or not, I really love the bottle cap opener and my wife will use the fork and spoon for some fancy meals she makes during the holidays.

    The Vinci Pod lays in a plastic shell that slides out of the shipping box, on the back of the shell your charge cord, user manual and 2nd Pod ( 1.2Ω ) all housed in a box that fits perfectly into the recess of the back of the shell, pre-installed in the device is the 0.8Ω Pod.

    The Royal Edition has a rich look to it with a raised leaf pattern giving the device a textured feel with VINCI in the center in raised letters. ( VERY ELEGANT APPEARANCE )

    On the back of the device Voopoo left a non textured look and feel that is smooth to the touch with VOOPOO printed in the center and Gene printed at the bottom. I received the Gold color version and really think it looks good.

    As you have seen In the pictures of the front and back of the device there are no buttons shown because this is a button free Pod System that is a auto-draw only activated by inhaling.

    On one side of the Vinci Royal Edition is the airflow adjustment control that will make users that like a tight MTL and semi loose MTL very happy. The other side is where the single airflow inlet hole is located in a good position at the top of the device.

    I tried using the auto-draw with the airflow completely closed and it still worked giving me a very tight MTL vape, the flavor really popped up a level on this setting but it's a tad to tight for me this way.

    Opening the airflow up a smidge from being completely closed was where my sweet spot was, flavor was still very good and the auto-draw worked flawlessly and smooth as well.

    Going in the opposite direction, fully open the auto-draw worked alright but a lot of suction of the draw is needed to keep it going all the way through the vape, for me it would stop just before the end of my vape . Closing down the airflow a tiny margin corrected that issue, flavor dropped a bit with more introduction of air but that's to be expected.

    Both of the Pods connect to the device by clicking into place, no magnets are used. I wanted to show the 3 airflow feed holes of the pod that connect to the airflow supply tube on the Vinci Royal Edition device.

    The single cut out slot in the middle between the 2 outer Gold contacts on the Pod channel's the airflow up and through to the coil inside the pod very well .

    Voopoo provides 2 Pods in this kit that work well and produce good flavor and if using the 1.2Ω Pod your battery life will be much better, not having a puff counter or display screen I can't give you a comparison between them in the amount of vapes.

    I found the 0.8Ω coil was more to my liking giving it a slight edge over the 1.2Ω Pod, there is not really a difference in flavor because both are good in that department but the very small increase of warmth that the 0.8Ω Pod provided was more for me. Having a 2ml capacity is nice and is pretty standard in Pod based systems but having a very easy to use top fill method by lifting up a rubber plug to fill is great , it fills quickly as well.

    The Vinci Royal Edition uses a type-c charge port located on the very bottom of the device, and speaking about the bottom of the device I must tell you that the Vinci cannot stand upright because the corners are all rounded giving you a comfortable feeling in the hand, you can however stand the device on it's side though.

    On the front leafed side there are 4 tiny but very bright LED lights that you can easily miss if not looking for them. These lights illuminate when you vape and serve as a battery meter.

    The Vinci Royal Edition uses a 3 color meter of the 4 LED lights for battery strength of it's 800mAh battery. When charging the 4 battery lights will change color to correspond with the battery strength as it increases in strength the lights change to battery percentage.

    * GREEN - ( 60-100% )

    * BLUE - ( 60-20% )

    * RED - ( 20% AND UNDER ) - Device Should Be Charged

    USING THE VINCI POD ROYAL EDITION


    Using the Vinci Pod Royal Edition in the settings that I mentioned I get a very nice not too tight not too loose vape that just works and taste great and the auto-draw makes it a effortless vape.

    I haven't even mentioned it's size yet, it's very compact for having a 800mAh internal battery and it just disappears in a hand easily.

    I think Voopoo did a nice job on the upscaled Vinci Pod Called the Vinci Pod Royal Edition and the new metal really makes the device feel strong and sturdy with no cheap feeling.

    I would like to thank Aimer and Voopoo for providing the classy Vinci Pod Royal Edition for the purpose of this review.

    THANK YOU

    Good review, I'm just not fond of draw activated systems.
    Thank you, I'm not crazy about them either because few devices that have the draw-activated function actually work very well, the Vinci one does work well on a tighter adjustment of airflow. With it fully open it would stop functioning about mid to 3/4 of the vape.
