Vaporessoās latest additions to their bestselling XROS series ā the XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini ā bring sleek design, improved battery performance, and ease of use to the forefront of pod vaping.
Whether youāre upgrading from an older model or making the switch from disposables, this guide breaks down everything you need to know about the XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini, including how to use them, fill them, charge them, and more.
Both kits are designed with simplicity in mind. Just fill your pod with e-liquid, allow it to prime, and you're ready to vape.
To prime your Vaporesso XROS pod, fill it with your chosen e-liquid and let it sit upright for 5ā10 minutes. This saturates the coil and prevents dry hits or premature burning. You can find a wide range of e-liquids suitable for this step on our website.
Click the side button five times quickly to power on or off.
Three clicks change the power setting (Eco, Normal, Power).
Four clicks lock/unlock the button while still allowing draw activation.
The XROS 5 Mini is buttonless and fires automatically when you inhale through the mouthpiece ā ideal for beginners or fans of minimalist design.

The XROS 5 offers dual activation ā inhale to activate or press the fire button for manual control.
The Mini is purely draw-activated.
If you're just getting started, both are excellent options in our starter e-cigarette collection.
The XROS 5 features three power levels:
Eco ā Conserves battery and extends pod life
Normal ā Balanced performance
Power ā Warmer, more intense hits (especially with 0.4Ī© pods)
Switch between modes by pressing the power button three times. You can also customise the LED screen theme by pressing the button twice.

Explore our 50/50 vape juice range ā ideal for these pods.
When flavour drops off or you taste burning, itās time to switch your pod. Swapping is simple:
Remove the old pod and insert a new one.
Always prime the pod before use.
TIP: Mild leaking or gurgling? Blow gently through the mouthpiece while holding a tissue to the airflow vent ā it might just be excess liquid, not a burnt coil.
Both devices include a slider-style airflow control on the back. Slide to adjust between:
Tighter draw ā MTL (mouth-to-lung), cigarette-like
Looser draw ā RDL (restricted direct lung), smoother and airy
This flexibility makes the XROS range great for personalising your vape style.
If your XROS 5 or Mini isnāt firing, try the following:
Check battery level ā recharge if needed.
Blinking red light? May indicate:
No pod detected
Short circuit
Low resistance
High temperature
Clean the pod contacts ā e-liquid at the base can disrupt connection.
Try a new pod ā coils do burn out.
If problems persist, consult your user manual or contact the retailer for support.
For best results, pair these pod kits with 50/50 e-liquids or high PG vape juices. These formulas wick efficiently and prevent coil flooding or burning.

Both the Vaporesso XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini deliver outstanding performance in compact, user-friendly designs.
Choose the XROS 5 if you want custom power settings, a screen display, and dual activation.
Choose the XROS 5 Mini if you prefer simplicity, draw-activation, and portability.
Backed by Vaporessoās Corex pod technology, these kits are perfect for anyone looking for a dependable, great-tasting, and stylish vape setup.
Snap off the mouthpiece from the side, insert your e-liquid into the red fill port only, then snap the mouthpiece back into place.
These pod kits work best with 50/50 e-liquid or nicotine salts. You can also try bar salts for a disposable-style flavour or freebase for a stronger throat hit.
Use the airflow slider on the back of the device. Slide it fully open for a loose draw or close it down for a tighter, MTL-style draw.
Check the battery first. If the light blinks red, it may mean a short circuit, low resistance, or that no pod is detected. Try a new pod and clean the contact points.
Yes ā all XROS pods are cross-compatible, including XROS 4, XROS 5, and Mini pods.
