Vaporesso Xros 4 Mini review: what is it?
The VAPORESSO XROS 4 Mini Pod System Kit is a refillable pod device from the Vaporesso range. You fill the pod with your own e-liquid and recharge the battery, unlike a disposable. It sits in our pod device category at AED 100.
The listing describes it as an upgrade in the XROS family and says it works with the whole XROS pod series, plus salt nicotine and freebase e-liquids. The table below shows what the manufacturer listing states, and anything it leaves out is marked as not specified rather than guessed.
| Spec | Listing detail |
|---|---|
| Dimensions | 107.51mm x 24mm x 14.12mm |
| Battery | 1000mAh, built in |
| Charging | Type-C, 1A (approx. 30 mins) |
| Pod capacity | 3ml |
| Pod included | 0.4Ω mesh (compatible with 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω, 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω) |
| Airflow | Adjustable slide control |
| Body material | Aluminium alloy |
| Indicator | RGB battery light |
| Display / puff counter | Not specified |
| Price | AED 100 |
How does the XROS 4 Mini look and perform?
The body is an aluminium alloy unibody. The listing describes a stretching process that gives the camouflage finishes a textured surface, and it comes in six colours. An RGB light shows battery level with colour codes, so you can read the charge at a glance without a screen.
The listing credits COREX 2.0 technology in the pod for flavour and pod lifespan, plus SSS leak-resistant technology and smart wattage output. A 3ml pod holds your e-liquid, and the slide control changes airflow between a tighter mouth-to-lung draw and a restricted direct-to-lung draw. The device is inhale-activated, so there is no fire button. Weight is not specified by the manufacturer listing.
Beyond the body material and finishes, the listing gives no weight or build-quality details, so we cannot comment on them. There is no display, puff counter or wattage dial in the listing. The RGB light is the only status indicator it describes, which keeps the device simple but gives you less feedback than a screen would.
Battery and charging
The battery is 1000mAh and charges over Type-C at 1A in about 30 minutes according to the listing. Runtime per charge is not specified by the manufacturer listing, so we give no hours or puff figure. The RGB light helps you decide when to plug in, and 30 minutes is quicker than the 45 minutes listed for the XROS Cube.
How long does it last, and who is it for?
The listing gives no puff count or pod lifespan, so we cannot say how long a pod or a charge will last. That depends on your e-liquid, the pod resistance you choose and how often you draw.
The kit ships with a 0.4Ω mesh pod, which the listing pitches at users who like a warmer, more flavourful vapour. Other resistances from 0.6Ω to 1.2Ω are compatible, so you can change pods later. Nicotine strength comes from your e-liquid rather than the device. Nicotine is addictive, so choose carefully and remember that UAE limits apply to nicotine e-liquid.
Replacement pods are sold separately, for example a pack of 2 XROS pods at AED 25 in our catalogue, so factor pod cost into the running price of the kit over time, alongside the AED 100 you pay for the device itself.
Because the listing states that both nicotine salts and freebase liquids work, the choice is yours and depends on the strength you already use. Salt liquids are usually sold in higher strengths, so check the label, keep within UAE limits, and never guess. If you are unsure which suits your device, ask the seller before you buy rather than after, and keep the pod and e-liquid away from children and pets at all times.
Not for you if…
You want a screen, a puff counter or manual wattage control, or the simplicity of a pre-filled disposable. If you prefer a very small cube shape, look at the XROS Cube instead. Non-smokers, pregnant or breastfeeding women and anyone under 18 should not use nicotine products.
If you are moving from a disposable, expect a short learning curve: filling the pod, choosing a resistance and recharging are all your job. In return you choose the e-liquid and replace only the pod, not the whole device, when it is spent.
Which colours does it come in, and what are the pros and cons?
A vape kit has no flavours of its own, because flavour comes from your e-liquid. The listing offers six colours:
- Black
- Space gray
- Camo red
- Camo silver
- Camo yellow
- Ice purple
Colour availability changes, so choose from the dropdown on the product page. The listing does not include a package contents list beyond the 0.4Ω pod, so confirm accessories on the product page. Here is the honest trade-off:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 1000mAh battery with about 30 minute charging | No screen, puff counter or wattage control listed |
| Adjustable slide airflow | Runtime and pod lifespan not specified |
| Aluminium alloy body with RGB battery light | Battery is smaller than the XROS 5 Mini at 1500mAh |
| Compatible with 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω XROS pods | Whole pod is replaced when the coil wears out |
| Salt and freebase e-liquids supported | Needs refilling and pod care, unlike a disposable |
How does it compare with other pod kits at this price?
Here is the 4 Mini against three in-stock kits priced at AED 99 to 110, using each product listing. All are refillable pod kits, so the differences come down to battery, pod size and pod options.
| Product | Battery | Pod size | Pods and coil | Charging | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XROS 4 Mini | 1000mAh | 3ml | 0.4Ω mesh included | Type-C, approx. 30 mins | AED 100 |
| XROS Cube | 900mAh | 2ml or 3ml (region) | 0.8Ω and 1.2Ω mesh included | Type-C, approx. 45 mins | AED 110 |
| XROS 5 Mini | 1500mAh | 2ml | 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω options, up to 30W | USB Type-C, 2A | AED 110 |
| Uwell Caliburn G4 | 1000mAh | 2ml | 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω options | Type-C fast charging | AED 99 |
Note that pod capacity differs across the group, from 2ml to 3ml. Pod size affects how often you refill, but it does not change nicotine strength, which comes from your e-liquid. Price gaps here are small, so battery size, charging time and the pods you can use are the practical differences to weigh.
Where each rival wins
The Cube is smaller and lit, but has a smaller battery and slower charging. The XROS 5 Mini has the biggest battery and a stated 30W maximum, for AED 10 more. The Caliburn G4 is AED 1 cheaper, with the same 1000mAh battery, though its listing gives a 2ml pod against the 4 Mini 3ml pod. The 4 Mini wins on pod size, charging speed and its metal body. For a step up, the OXVA Xlim Pro 3 is listed at AED 130. Browse spare parts in our Vaporesso Replacement Pods and Coils Guide.
Where to buy the XROS 4 Mini in the UAE, and is it legal?
You can order it on the XROS 4 Mini product page at AED 100. Prices are in AED, sales are 18+ only, and delivery options are shown at checkout for Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. This Vaporesso Xros 4 Mini review is based on the live listing, and we check it again at each update.
Vaping products are regulated in the UAE. Read our guide on whether disposable vaping is legal in Dubai, and the Tobacco Control Laws database for an independent overview. This is general information, not legal advice, and rules can change, so check the current position before you buy.
How to spot a fake in the UAE
Buy from a listed retailer and compare the box and device with the product page. Be wary of prices far below AED 100, and of pods that do not match the XROS range. If anything looks different, or nicotine e-liquid you buy lacks the ECAS/MoIAT conformity mark, do not use it and contact the seller.
Before you pay, choose your colour from the dropdown on the product page. As this is an age-restricted sale, expect to confirm that you are 18 or over. When the kit arrives, check that the colour, pod and packaging match the listing.

Nicotine e-liquid is addictive. For adults aged 18+ only. UAE nicotine products should carry the MoIAT ECAS conformity mark, so check the mark on any e-liquid you buy. Not for non-smokers, minors, or pregnant or breastfeeding women.
