NGL my expectations for this SMOK Solus were… LOW. I like that because there is nowhere to go but up. Thankfully this Solus ends up being a real nice, real mellow, real tight draw MTL vape. For a smoking adult, I think the Solus is an excellent fit.

Micro USB is a bummer, one pod is kind of a bummer, no charging cable is kind of a bummer. But on the upside, it’s cheap, roughly $14 most everywhere. Buy a few spare pods and use one of the 9,000 micro USB cables that probably exist in your house somewhere.

Kind of enjoying my trip down ‘Smok products I never got to try but now I found a shop that sells them so I bought a bunch” road. Today we arrive at the “THINER” pod. It’s one of those Sourin types of credit card-looking vapes.

It honestly works great. The draw feels smoker-ish to me. Tight but not crazy, some good resistance. Flavor is good but fades fast and ends up kind of just being ok. Compared to things like the Smok NORD or the Uwell Caliburn A2, the Smok Thiner Pod felt like the flavor started off at a lower bar.

The SMOK Novo 4 is still impressing me on every level, even all of the replacement coil heads I tried worked really well. People generally give SMOK a hard time for leaking pods or burnt pods. I experienced neither of those things, if / when I do I will report back.

The NOVO 4 is better than the NOVO X by a lot IMO, just a much better vape all around and the AFC actually works. As I said, I’m still continuing to use these, and will report back in a PODS RANKED video with how much longer they go.
