A Veteran Smoker Explains the Price and Details of the 4th Generation IQOS

Back in school, I thought smoking looked cool, so I gradually started to learn how to smoke. I must say, in my youth, I didn't know the taste of worry, and I truly experienced the pleasure that smoking brought during that time. However, as I grew older, both life and work pressures increased, and smoking became one of my ways to relieve stress. It wasn't until I participated in a health check at work last year that I suddenly realized I was no longer young, and for the sake of my health, I had to prioritize quitting smoking.

After all, I have been smoking for over a decade, and quitting is not something that can be done easily. Just when I was worried about quitting, a friend who understood my situation introduced me to IQOS electronic cigarettes and told me that the harm of IQOS is much less than that of traditional cigarettes. He also managed to quit traditional cigarettes gradually using IQOS.

After that, I started gathering information about IQOS online and found that its principle is to heat tobacco instead of burning it, which greatly reduces the production of harmful substances, thereby lowering the harm to the human body. Since IQOS electronic cigarettes do not burn, their harm is minimal, and there is no issue of harmful secondhand smoke. Additionally, since there is no burning, there is no ash produced, so when smoking, I don't have to worry about harming my family or dirtying the environment. It's truly a win-win situation.

After learning enough about IQOS electronic cigarettes online, I decided to get one for myself. At that time, the fourth generation of IQOS electronic cigarettes was just released, initially available exclusively on the official website and in nine directly operated stores in Japan. The new product was indeed hard to come by! Moreover, due to domestic sales restrictions, it was basically impossible to buy genuine products in the country, and I generally had to rely on purchasing agents. Fortunately, I have a friend in Japan, and I asked him to help me get one.

Through this friend in Japan, I was able to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the price and details of the fourth generation IQOS electronic cigarettes, which I will now introduce to everyone.

First, the fourth generation IQOS electronic cigarettes come in two models: one is the 3.0, and the other is the 3.0 MULTI. The price of the fourth generation IQOS 3.0 electronic cigarette is 10,985 yen, while the price of the fourth generation IQOS 3.0 MULTI electronic cigarette is 8,980 yen. After understanding the prices of the fourth generation IQOS electronic cigarettes, let's take a look at the features of these two models.

I believe IQOS can be regarded as the "iPhone" of the electronic cigarette world, with a quality feel and features that lead the industry. The fourth generation IQOS 3.0 MULTI is known as the "super integrated machine" and is also a model that allows for continuous smoking. The entire device is surprisingly lightweight. In a "fully charged" state, this model can be used to smoke about ten to twelve sticks continuously.

The fourth generation IQOS 3.0 electronic cigarette has a new design where the lid is opened by pressing the position held in hand, making it less likely to break. The cylindrical tobacco stick heater cleverly uses magnets for easy removal from various angles. The charging time for the tobacco stick heater has also been reduced from the previous generation's 4 minutes to about 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

I have been using the fourth generation IQOS 3.0 electronic cigarette for about three to four months now, and my overall experience has been quite good. The flavor is very similar to that of real cigarettes, and I have gotten used to it. I now hardly smoke traditional cigarettes, so I believe IQOS electronic cigarettes are effective for quitting smoking. Smokers may consider getting one.
