Design and Build Quality
The XLIM Pro feels premium right out of the box. The zinc alloy body has a leather grip that looks great and feels comfortable in your hand. It's one of those devices that just feels like it cost more than it did.
The design is sleek and rectangular. Easy to hold, easy to pocket. At 48 grams, it's light enough for all-day carry but doesn't feel cheap or flimsy.
New Features
The biggest upgrade is the adjustable airflow slider on the side. You can dial in your draw from a tight MTL hit to a looser RDL style. Not sure which works for you? Check out our guide on MTL vs DTL vaping explained. This small addition makes a big difference in how versatile the device is.
Performance
OXVA kept what works. The XLIM Pro uses the same coil system as previous models, so you've got plenty of options:
- 0.6Ω Mesh Coil - Best for direct lung hits with maximum flavor
- 0.8Ω Mesh Coil - Balanced option for restrictive direct lung
- 1.2Ω Regular Coil - Perfect for tight MTL with higher nicotine
Flavor Production
The flavor from the XLIM Pro is excellent. The mesh coils deliver rich, saturated flavor that rivals more expensive setups. Fruity, dessert, or tobacco flavors all come through beautifully.
Battery Life
The 1000mAh battery is a nice bump from the original's 900mAh. In our testing, here's what we got:
- Heavy use: 1 day
- Moderate use: 1.5-2 days
- Light use: 2-3 days
Type-C fast charging gets you from empty to full in about 45 minutes.
Who Should Buy This?
The XLIM Pro is a good fit for:
- Smokers looking to switch to vaping
- Vapers who want a reliable, flavorful daily driver
- Anyone who appreciates quality build and design
- Users who want flexibility between MTL and RDL
Final Thoughts
OXVA nailed it again. The XLIM Pro takes everything good about the original and improves on it. The adjustable airflow alone makes it worth the upgrade. Combine that with better battery life and premium build quality, and you've got one of the best pod vapes available in 2025.
