Review Summary
The Vaporesso Xros 2 refines the original without overhauling it. The 1000mAh battery is a meaningful step up, dual activation gives vapers the choice of auto-draw or button fire, and the SSS leak-resistant pod design holds up well in daily use with no spitback or leaking across extended testing. The water drop air inlet covers MTL and loose MTL vaping with a simple physical adjustment. Pod compatibility across the full Xros series is a practical long-term advantage, meaning pods purchased now remain usable across future Xros models. For vapers new to the Xros range or upgrading from a different brand, the Xros 2 is a solid, well-rounded MTL pod kit. Existing Xros users will find the improvements incremental rather than transformative.
The Vaporesso Xros 2 Pod Kit is a Vaporesso vape pen kits designed for MTL & L-MTL vaping , powered by a 1000mAh battery with a 2ml e-liquid capacity and USB C charging , available in 7 colours.

The Xros 2 keeps the slim, rectangular form factor of the original while adding marginal thickness and reducing overall weight to 45 grams with a pod fitted, which is 5 grams lighter than its predecessor despite the dimensional difference. The 15 colour options cover a broad range of finishes including metallic gradients, bold solids, and pastel variants, and the aluminium alloy construction holds up well against the surface wear of daily pocket carry that cheaper finishes show quickly.
The 150 degree curved base is produced by a diamond high-gloss cutting process that gives the lower section a polished visual finish and a comfortable grip that the flat base of the original did not offer. The four LED indicators sit at the base and give a clear incremental battery reading without requiring any button interaction. The V logo on the reverse face and the engraved branding on the front are restrained design details that contribute to an overall finish quality that sits above the price point. The magnetic pod connection is secure and the pod removal action is clean and consistent across repeated pod changes.
The Xros 2 is positioned as an MTL and loose MTL pod kit and the performance reflects that intent throughout. The water drop air inlet adjusts draw resistance from a tight cigarette-style MTL to a slightly more open loose MTL draw through a physical control on the device rather than a digital setting, keeping the adjustment immediate and uncomplicated. The range does not extend to a fully open DTL draw, which is a deliberate design choice rather than a limitation for vapers who use MTL hardware with nicotine salts.
The mesh coil pods deliver consistent flavour across the full life of the pod with no noticeable drop-off until the coil approaches the end of its usable lifespan. The 0.8 ohm pod included in the box is the most versatile option in the range for nicotine salt use and covers the MTL draw style that the Xros 2 is built around. The 1.2 ohm pod suits a tighter draw with higher PG liquids and produces a slightly more flavour-concentrated output at lower vapour volume. For the complete selection of Xros replacement pods across all resistances, the full range is stocked at WizVape.
Dual activation supports both auto-draw and button fire from the same pod and coil regardless of resistance. Auto-draw fires on inhale without any button interaction, which suits vapers who prefer the simplicity of draw-activated operation. Button fire gives manual control over when the device activates and is the preferred option for vapers who want more consistent output between draws. Both methods are available at all times without requiring any mode selection or setting change.
The SSS leak-resistant magnetic pod design performed consistently across extended testing with no leaking, gurgling or spitback under normal use. The top fill port keeps refilling clean and straightforward without removing the pod from the device, and the magnetic connection holds the pod securely in place during filling without any risk of the pod detaching.
The 1000mAh battery is a step up from the original Xros and gives the Xros 2 enough capacity to cover most of a full day on moderate use from a single charge. For lighter vapers the battery will push further, and for heavier users a mid-day top-up may be needed. The passthrough capability allows vaping while the device is connected to a USB-C cable, though the charge cycle briefly pauses during each draw as a standard safety measure.
USB-C charging at 5V/1A reaches a full charge in just under an hour, which is a practical charge time for a 1000mAh battery at this output rating. The four LED indicators at the base of the device give a clear incremental charge reading in 25 percent steps without requiring any button press or screen interaction, and the fade-in and fade-out effect on the LEDs during active use gives a real-time visual confirmation that the device is firing.
The Xros 2 requires no setup beyond inserting a pod, filling through the top fill port, and waiting a few minutes for the coil to prime. There are no wattage settings, no output modes to select, and no screen to navigate. Draw activation fires automatically on inhale and the button on the side of the device provides the alternative button fire option for vapers who prefer manual control. The airflow adjustment and the pod replacement process are both tool-free and take seconds.
For vapers transitioning from cigarettes or disposable vapes, the Xros 2 offers a straightforward entry into refillable pod vaping with a familiar draw style and no complexity to navigate. The shared pod ecosystem across the Xros series means pods purchased for the Xros 2 remain compatible with later Xros models, which removes one of the common friction points of switching between pod kit generations. For the full range of Vaporesso refillable pod kits available at WizVape alongside the Xros 2, the complete lineup is stocked with UK dispatch on all orders. A full overview of the brand is available on the Vaporesso collection page.

The Xros 2 is compatible with the full Xros pod range from 0.6 ohm to 1.2 ohm. The 0.8 ohm and 1.2 ohm pods are included in the box. These pods are interchangeable across most models in the Xros series including the Xros 3 and Xros Mini.
The 1000mAh battery covers most of a day on moderate use from a single charge. Heavy users may need to recharge during the day. The device charges via USB-C in just under an hour and supports passthrough vaping while charging.
The Xros 2 uses four LED indicators at its base. Four lights indicates a full charge, three lights indicates 75 percent, two lights indicates 50 percent, and one light indicates 25 percent. The LEDs display a fade-in and fade-out effect during active use.
Yes. The 0.8 ohm and 1.2 ohm pods are suited to nicotine salt e-liquids at 10mg and 20mg strengths. Both pods perform best with a 50/50 or high PG e-liquid. The 0.6 ohm pod is better suited to higher VG freebase liquids.
The Xros 3 adds COREX mesh coil pods with a rated coil life of up to 20 days and a rear airflow slider for more precise draw adjustment. The Xros 2 uses the water drop air inlet for airflow adjustment and standard mesh pods. Both share the same pod ecosystem from 0.6 ohm to 1.2 ohm. The Xros 3 is a meaningful upgrade if coil longevity is a priority.
The Xros 2 supports MTL and loose MTL vaping. The water drop air inlet adjusts between a tight cigarette-style draw and a slightly more open inhale but does not extend to a fully open DTL draw. For DTL vaping the Luxe X or Luxe XR Max are better suited options within the Vaporesso range.
The Xros 2 supports both auto-draw and button fire activation. Auto-draw fires the device on inhale without pressing anything. The button on the side of the device can also be pressed to fire manually. Both methods work with all compatible pod resistances.
Pods typically last one to two weeks depending on usage frequency and e-liquid choice. Sweeter liquids with high sucralose content shorten coil life. A burnt or noticeably muted flavour is the clearest sign the pod needs replacing.
