RELX 3rd Gen flavor ranking: recommended flavors and which one is best?

I’ve been using the Lingdian for almost four or five months now and haven’t used anything else. I also hardly ever read forum posts, so everything below is purely based on my personal experience. (Some points may or may not be accurate... I’m just writing whatever comes to mind. And I’m definitely not much of a writer, so forget about polished language haha.)

Leaking:

Right now, pod structures on the market are mainly divided into two types: L-shaped airflow channels and straight-through airflow channels. L-shaped ones generally leak. After using them for a while, if you remove the pod, you can see a layer of liquid on the outside of the pod, and some also builds up inside the device, so you need to wipe it regularly. (Although you can contact the store to replace leaking pods, and usually with any flavor, it’s honestly too much hassle if every pod needs replacing. I replaced one once and then couldn’t be bothered anymore.)

Straight-through airflow pods, on the other hand, seem to leak much less, which is a lot better. Sometimes when vaping you may hear a gurgling sound. If you pull out the pod and shake it a bit, a little condensation will come out, and then the sound usually disappears.

Flavors:

I’ve tried all of them except Fruit Party and Watermelon. Although you can sample them in-store, think about it: those trial pods have usually been opened for who knows how long, so the flavor is definitely not the same as a freshly opened one. They’re only useful as a rough reference.

Mung Bean: Absolutely legendary! My long-term all-day flavor. Rich taste and on the cooler side.

Strawberry: Sweet and slightly tangy. (I don’t think it’s too much to compare it to a youthful, sweet first love, right?)

Cola and Orange Soda: I think both are done pretty well. Nice and cool. I just don’t know why, but the orange one always reminds me of some medicine I had as a kid—I just can’t remember which one.
Cool Mint Cigarette and Late Night Coffee are also incredibly true to their intended flavors!

Tipsy Apricot: Has a slight alcoholic note. It’s fine for everyday use, but if I vape it when I’m hungover, it seriously makes me want to throw up. (People who don’t like alcohol probably won’t accept this flavor very well. Also, does vaping this while driving count as drunk driving...? Food for thought.)

Peach Tea: It gives off a very laid-back, relaxing vibe. (Not sure if anyone gets what I mean.)

Grape: Pretty average in my opinion. It’s not especially rich, not especially cool, and just feels kind of bland.

Mint: This was one of the pods that came with the starter kit, and for no particular reason I just really didn’t like it. It was cool enough and satisfying enough, but I still didn’t like it, and I never tried it again afterward.

Passion Fruit: The front and back notes are quite different.

Bull: Too sweet and cloying.

Hami Melon: Sorry, I honestly forgot what it tasted like...

Submarine Ocean: The first time I tried it, I couldn’t handle the throat hit—it was really harsh. (To me, throat hit basically means how harsh it feels.) It smells like aromatherapy, though, and actually smells really nice. A shop assistant once told me you shouldn’t vape Submarine Ocean too much, because it contains an ingredient that’s apparently similar to something used in aromatherapy.

Emmm, I’ll stop here... These are all just my personal impressions. If you think this review isn’t very good, well, feel free to form your own opinion haha.
