XROS C vs XROS 5 Mini vs XROS 6: Which Vaporesso XROS Should You Buy?
Vaporesso now has three XROS pen kits that people in Pakistan keep asking us about: the new XROS C, the XROS 5 Mini and the XROS 6. All three take the same XROS pods and look alike in photos, but they are built for different people. One is simple and small, one is the budget all rounder, and one has a screen and fast charging. Below we compare them on battery, charging, pods and price, and tell you which one we would pick for different kinds of users.

Sources: the XROS C numbers come from Vaporesso’s official XROS C poster. The XROS 5 Mini numbers come from Vaporesso’s XROS 5 Mini page and the XROS 6 numbers from the XROS 6 page. Where Vaporesso has not given a number, we left it blank instead of guessing.
Battery and charging
This is the biggest difference between the three. The XROS 6 has 1800mAh, which is 80% more than the 1000mAh in the XROS C. The XROS 5 Mini sits in the middle with 1500mAh, 50% more than the C.
What does that mean day to day? For a light user who takes a few puffs after meals and with tea, all three will last the day. For someone who vapes all day at work, the XROS C will likely need a top up in the evening, while the XROS 6 has the best chance of going a full day or more.
Charging speed follows the same order. The XROS C charges at 1A, the 5 Mini at 2A and the XROS 6 at up to 3A. Vaporesso says the XROS 6 can reach around 50% in 10 minutes on a fast charger. So the XROS C has the smallest battery and also refills it the slowest. Keep that in mind if you often forget to charge.
Pods: the good news
All three use the same XROS pods. Vaporesso lists 3ml pods in 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 ohm and 2ml pods in 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2 ohm for each of them. That means:
- You can switch between these kits later and keep your spare pods.
- Pods cost the same whichever device you choose: Rs 799 for a single XROS 3ml pod, Rs 899 for a 2ml pod, or Rs 3,199 for the 0.8 ohm 3ml pack of 4.
- The XROS 6 gives you two pods in the box, so you start with a spare. The C and the 5 Mini come with one.
For a tight draw with nicotine salt, use 0.8 ohm. For a bit more vapour, 0.6 ohm. The 0.4 ohm pod works best on the XROS 6, where you can turn the power up, and it needs low strength freebase rather than strong salts.
Screen and controls
If you like seeing numbers, only the XROS 6 has a screen. It shows battery, power and puff count, and lets you change wattage. The XROS 5 Mini has no screen and no menu. You fill it, set the airflow and inhale, and a hidden LED strip shows battery in four steps. The XROS C, going by its poster, is just as simple: no screen, no wattage to set.
Simple is not a bad thing. Fewer settings means less to go wrong, and many people never touch the wattage on their kit anyway.
Size and looks
The XROS C is the shortest at 107.51 mm, then the 5 Mini at 110.5 mm, then the XROS 6 at 122 mm. The gap between the C and the 5 Mini is small. The XROS 6 is clearly longer and heavier at 65g.
Looks are where the XROS C stands out. Its five designs include two Graffiti versions with big lettering, a copper style Spray Brown and two carbon fibre finishes. See them all in our Vaporesso XROS C guide.
Which one should you buy?
- Buy the XROS 5 Mini if you want a simple, reliable pod at a fair price, today. It has 50% more battery than the XROS C and charges twice as fast, and it is in stock at Rs 4,799.
- Buy the XROS 6 if you vape a lot, want a screen and power control, or want the biggest battery and fastest charging. At Rs 7,399 it costs more, but you get two pods in the box.
- Wait for the XROS C if you care most about design, want the smallest of the three, or need a backup device for pods you already own. Reserve it on WhatsApp at +92 320 8516019.
Our honest take: for most first time buyers the XROS 5 Mini is the safest choice right now. If the XROS C lands at a lower price than the 5 Mini, it becomes a strong pick for light users who want something that looks different.

Is vaping better than smoking? What the research says
For adult smokers, vaping is much less harmful than smoking, but it is not harmless. The UK government evidence update found that in the short and medium term, vaping poses a small fraction of the risks of smoking, while noting that long term effects are still being studied. You can read the Nicotine vaping in England 2022 evidence update. A 2025 Cochrane analysis of e-cigarette trials found that nicotine vapes help more people stop smoking than nicotine patches or gum, while saying longer studies are still needed. You can read it on PubMed Central. The NHS explains how to use a vape to stop smoking on its vaping to quit smoking page.
The simple rule: if you smoke, switching fully to a vape is a better choice than carrying on smoking. If you do not smoke, do not start vaping. Nicotine is addictive. Our products are for adults 18 and over only.
