Which Is Better: SNOWPLUS or RELX?

If you're on a budget and, like me, often lose your vaping devices.

Do not buy RELX or MOTI... They are good but also expensive.

SNOWPLUS Lite is the best value for money, a robust performer.

The outer packaging is light green with a white background and black accents, the device is in the middle, with a cutout in the lower right corner for easy access, scoring 7.5.

In terms of design, SNOWPLUS has a very minimalist and striking look, the color is a brighter fluorescent green than Tiffany blue, aligning well with the youthful, dynamic spirit, scoring 8.

For flavors, I chose two fruity options:

The watermelon flavor is one I particularly enjoy; it’s rich and authentic, with a slightly sweet vapor enhancing the experience, scoring 7.5.

Similar to the pineapple flavor, SNOWPLUS's pineapple is much better than RELX's, fresher and more vibrant, with a taste reminiscent of melted honey, scoring 7.5.

Flavor average: 7.5.

Usage experience: As a product I previously criticized, SNOWPLUS Lite performs far better than the first generation. The matte metallic finish looks just as good as devices priced at 200 yuan.

The shell is thicker than before due to a larger battery, and the 400mAh can last through a 1.7ml cartridge, outperforming 95% of vaping devices on the market.

The device is priced at 39 yuan (price at convenience stores), better than 95% of vaping devices, and the quality exceeds the remaining 5%. The cartridges are indeed pricey at 35 yuan each, but compared to the first generation's 1.5ml, you get an extra 0.2ml, making it a good deal.

Usage experience: 9.

(Packaging: 7.5 + Design: 8 + Flavor average: 7.5 + Experience: 9) / 4 = 8.

Final score: 8.

For a cheap yet outstanding product, SNOWPLUS Lite is anything but Lite.

My evaluation of the RELX 1st Gen is:

It no longer belongs to this era.

However, the 5th Gen is truly revolutionary.

The packaging is the weakest aspect of the 5th Gen RELX, lacking any highlights, even less impressive than the 1st and 2nd generations. Without the logo, it would be quite unappealing as a gift, scoring 5.

In terms of design, aside from black, all other colors are quite feminine. Even the silver I purchased feels a bit delicate. When smoking outside, I prefer to carry a more masculine device like YOOZ. Design score: 7; girls might prefer this style and color scheme.

Flavor: Over the past six months, I have tried various 5th Gen cartridges, with three flavors leaving a deep impression:

Orange soda can be said to be the most refined flavor I’ve ever experienced in any vaping device, highly recommended. Even if all other 5th Gen cartridges are terrible, buying a 5th Gen device for this flavor is worth it. The same goes for the 4th Gen orange soda; you might as well toss the device. Score: 10.

Green bean paste: This flavor is quite common, but the 5th Gen RELX seems to have deeply analyzed the green bean paste flavor, making it very detailed and enjoyable. Score: 9.

Coca-Cola: This flavor is also quite common, but no manufacturer has done it well. The 5th Gen surprisingly makes it worse, with a very dense plastic taste permeating every puff, leaving me shocked. Score: 3.

Flavor average: 7.33.

In terms of user experience, the RELX 5th Gen has a battery indicator that lights up smoothly like an Audi turn signal when inhaling, providing a very smooth visual experience, also known as the tidal light. The inhalation is smooth, and the grip is comfortable. The battery life has not improved; each full charge does not last as long as the 1st Gen device. Experience score: 8.

Total score:

(Packaging: 5 + Design: 7 + Flavor average: 7.33 + Experience: 8) / 4 = 6.83.
