Comprehensive Review of Better E-Cigarette Brands in China

Based on my experience and understanding, I will briefly discuss these e-cigarette brands for your reference. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

RELX is the most well-known brand in the market, and the first generation of RELX is also the most widely accepted.
The advantages are obvious: simple appearance, wide adaptability, adjustable flavors, and high richness (in the first half).
The disadvantages are also clear: many counterfeits, high leakage rates, and flavor changes in the pods (in the second half). Currently, the fourth and fifth generations of RELX are the main products, and the feedback from users has been quite good.

Next, let's talk about YOOZ and Xiaoye, both of which are internet celebrity brands. When the internet celebrity pioneer Luo Yonghao brought Xiaoye and the uncle Cai Yuandong brought YOOZ to the market, it was truly a stormy time. Now one is almost dead, and the other is growing wildly; I can't help but cry.

Xiaoye, as a product born from the Smartisan brand, has pure bloodlines and is simply beautiful. Additionally, in my impression, it seems to be the first product to implement vibration reminders as an interactive feature. These two aspects are Smartisan's strengths and weaknesses, namely quality control and pod quality control. Many of the pods I bought before leaked oil as soon as I opened them, unlike RELX, which leaks oil while smoking. This is a problem that has existed from the beginning, and Smartisan's craftsmanship struggles to solve this technical pain point. The flavor is average, and I won't say more. Good luck to Xiaoye.

YOOZ has been rampant online this year. Their marketing team is quite impressive, much stronger than Xiaoye. However, in terms of products, the advantages are not obvious. The appearance and texture of the device are quite unique but not outstanding. The taste is good, but the downside is that there aren't many functions, and they keep changing the colors of the second generation.

JVE, which entered the market last year against the trend of closing online channels for e-cigarettes, is very bold and has a lot of courage. The pros and cons of JVE are very similar to those of RELX. Initially, one-third of the pods had great flavors, but then the flavors gradually changed, making it a decent product overall.

MOTI, originally known as Xiaomo Mountain, is considered a pioneer in the domestic e-cigarette industry. It initially integrated overseas markets but did not promote enough domestically, resulting in low brand awareness. However, this does not affect the reputation of its products. The MOTI generation has been on the market for a long time as an entry-level model, positioned to expand the market with high cost-effectiveness. Compared to products from other brands, its performance is just above the passing line, and it is likely to be eliminated soon.

The key point to mention is the MOTI S LITE released in June last year. After receiving it, I experienced it for about a week. I can only express my love for this product in four words: better late than never.

Main advantages: large vapor production, highly restored flavor, and strong continuity. Basically, it doesn't change flavor after finishing, and the smoke is very delicate. There’s also a little surprise with the burst mode. After powering on, the wattage instantly increases from the normal mode of 6W to 9W, making it versatile, increasing vapor production, enhancing throat hit, and providing a refreshing taste.

Disadvantages: When it first came out, the capacity of a single pod was 1.2ml, which led to complaints about it not lasting long. After changing to 1.8ml, the entire pod can basically maintain a tasteless experience throughout, leaving no opportunity for friends in business.

Since the launch of the MOTI S LITE, many products have been imitated, but the core e-liquid and atomization technology have never been surpassed. Among the brands I currently use, the MOTI S LITE should be the strongest king in terms of experience, flavor, and flavor continuity.

Finally, I want to say that brands like RELX, YOOZ, and MOTI are all good. Each brand has its pros and cons, so when choosing, it's best to go for well-known brands and then compare based on your own trial experience and consider the cost of pods in the future.
