Vaporesso XROS Mini Retro — Pocket-Sized 1000mAh Refillable Pod Kit
The smallest, most distinctively styled refillable vape kit in the XROS range — a pocket-sized 1000mAh, 18W draw-activated pod kit built around COREX 3.0 flavour technology and Anti-Leaking Anti-Messing 2.0 protection.
With a 2ml top-fill pod, eight pastel and neutral colours and full backwards compatibility with every Vaporesso XROS pod made since 2020, it delivers the same flavour quality as the wider XROS Mini family in a measurably more compact body.
A full day for most light-to-moderate vapers.
No buttons, no menus — fill, click and inhale.
Sharper taste, cooler vapour, ~30% longer life.
Shorter than a biro and remarkably light.
Keeps the device and your pocket clean.
A design-first finish to suit any style.
What Is the Vaporesso XROS Mini Retro?
The XROS Mini Retro is a compact, draw-activated refillable pod kit and the design-led, beginner-friendly model in the Vaporesso XROS Mini line-up. There's nothing to set up — fill the 2ml pod with your favourite nic salt or 50/50 e-liquid, click it into the device and inhale. The device handles the rest.
The 'Retro' name reflects a deliberate design philosophy: clean, soft, considered styling instead of the screens and buttons of higher-spec vape kits. The pastel palette — Spring Green, Baby Pink, Baby Blue and Baby Purple — brings a vintage-modern softness to a thoroughly modern refillable vape, while the neutral range offers a quieter everyday carry. Despite the simpler profile, the COREX 3.0 coil technology inside is identical to the rest of the XROS Mini range, so you never trade flavour for size.

COREX 3.0 — Same Flavour, Smaller Package
Flavour is determined by the coil, not the battery — and the XROS Mini Retro runs the same COREX 3.0 generation found across the XROS Mini family. Its Hive Mesh honeycomb coil spreads heat across a wider, more even surface, while Nano-Microfiber and Aerospace-Grade cotton keep it saturated to prevent dry hits. The result: sharper aroma, a cooler vape and roughly 30% longer coil life.

Pocket-Sized, Zero Learning Curve
At just 98.9mm tall, the XROS Mini Retro is shorter than a biro and lighter than almost any refillable pod kit — the perfect compact carry or backup device. It's fully draw-activated with no buttons, no menus and no settings: fill, click and inhale. An LED pulses on each draw to show your battery level.
Anti-Leaking Anti-Messing 2.0
Structural sealing at every pod connection point, thermal leak-prevention to manage e-liquid expansion, and an anti-residue design help keep your XROS Mini Retro clean during daily pocket carry — exactly what you want from a device chosen for how it looks.
Battery, Charging & Everyday Use
The built-in 1000mAh battery comfortably covers a full day for most light-to-moderate vapers. Charging is via USB-C (5V/1A) in roughly 60–75 minutes, and a USB-C cable is included in the box. An LED battery indicator pulses on each draw so you always know your charge level — no screen to navigate. At 18W max output, the XROS Mini Retro is tuned for satisfying MTL vaping with nic salt e-liquid.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Vaporesso XROS Mini Retro?
It's a compact, draw-activated refillable pod kit and one of the smallest devices in the Vaporesso XROS range at 98.9 × 23.7 × 13.7mm. It features a 1000mAh battery, 18W output, COREX 3.0 coil technology and Anti-Leaking Anti-Messing 2.0, with no buttons or screen — just fill, click and vape. Available in 8 colours.
What pods fit the Vaporesso XROS Mini Retro?

What e-liquid should I use?
The included 0.6Ω pod suits 50/50 e-liquid at 3–6mg or 20mg nic salt for an RDL draw. For a tighter MTL draw, pair an 0.8–1.2Ω pod with 10–20mg nicotine salt. At 18W, higher-resistance pods with nic salt are the most natural fit.

The 1000mAh battery lasts a full day for most light-to-moderate vapers. Charge it with the included USB-C cable (5V/1A) in around 60–75 minutes. The LED indicator pulses on each draw to show your charge level.
