QUIZZ Heated Tobacco Device Review
Recently, the heated tobacco segment has entered a fast-growth phase, with new products appearing one after another. Looking at the heated tobacco devices already on the market, there are pen-style and box-style designs, as well as various heating methods
The development of heat-not-burn e-cigarettes has recently entered a fast lane, with a continuous stream of new products. Looking at the heat-not-burn e-cigarettes that have been released, there are various designs, including stick-style and box-style, and different heating methods, such as plate heating and needle heating. Each product has its own characteristics to some extent. Today, we bring you a heat-not-burn e-cigarette that also has very distinct features, so let's take a look.
QUIZZ is developed by Shenzhen Saisipu Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., established in 2010, a high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, manufacturing, and sales. The company has an independent R&D center and production base, dedicated to the research, manufacturing, and promotion of e-cigarettes, with the ultimate goal of providing smokers with a healthier and happier lifestyle.
The packaging of QUIZZ is in a typical top-and-bottom style, with a square black storage box included. This storage box is practical for keeping and protecting the device. Thumbs up for that!
Opening the zipper of the storage box reveals the contents: 1*QUIZZ, 1*USB charging cable, 1*cleaning brush, 1*instruction manual, 1*warranty card, and 1*product qualification certificate. The instruction manual is printed in Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean, indicating that this product is not only intended for domestic sales but also has confidence in going international.
Compared to previous experiences with several heat-not-burn e-cigarettes, QUIZZ feels very user-friendly, as its shape and size resemble a familiar flip-top lighter, including the design of the top cover, which seems to be inspired by a lighter. I believe many users have been looking forward to such a design for a long time.
The entire body of QUIZZ is made of zinc alloy and aluminum alloy, ensuring its durability and resistance to drops. The surface finish uses Apple anodizing and vacuum plating technology, reportedly ensuring it will never fade, indicating its excellent wear resistance.
Because the entire body is made of metal, QUIZZ feels quite premium, and its compact size makes it easy to carry, providing a good grip. However, this ceramic-like finish may cause some discomfort for users with sweaty hands.
The design of the top cover of QUIZZ is similar to that of a lighter's top cover; it opens with a gentle push, and the top cover automatically pops up due to the spring mechanism. This design not only enhances the overall aesthetics of the product but also provides dust protection. Of course, the metal top cover ensures the product's durability, as it needs to be opened and closed frequently.
The heating chamber's pod holder is also made of metal, so there are no concerns about melting issues during long-term use. However, this brings another issue: when removing the pod holder after use, users need to be cautious to avoid burning their fingers. Fortunately, the pod holder can be detached from the device for easier maintenance. The heating element inside the heating chamber is a mainstream ceramic heating needle.
The power button of QUIZZ is designed on the side, providing good concealment. Below the power button is an LED indicator, which, like other products, is mainly used to display the device's battery level and working status. It also indicates the charging status.
The front of the device features the brand logo, following mainstream design trends.
The USB port is located at the bottom, maintaining the device's neat appearance and enhancing its aesthetics. Although it may not be the most convenient for charging, it does not pose significant trouble. The charging time is approximately 45 minutes. Above the port is a reset button, a design not commonly found in other products, but its function is clear (discussed later).
Due to QUIZZ's compact size, its battery capacity is not large, at 650 mAh, but its endurance is quite good. Reportedly, a full charge can support up to 9 pods, which, while less than some other products, is still commendable given the battery capacity is limited by the device's size.
Regarding the internal structure of QUIZZ, let's use an official diagram to illustrate. The diagram shows that QUIZZ is designed compactly, contributing to its lightweight and portable nature.
In fact, aside from its appearance, another notable feature of QUIZZ is its dual-mode intelligent switching, which includes a smart memory mode for 16 puffs and a 4-minute smoking duration mode. The smart memory mode means that if the user reaches 16 puffs within a time frame of ≥3 minutes and 30 seconds, the device will automatically shut down (the device will vibrate at the 13th puff to remind the user that only 3 puffs remain). The 4-minute smoking duration mode means that if the user has not completed the 16 puffs during the smoking process, the device will shut down after 4 minutes. The device will automatically select the shutdown time based on the user's actual puff count. #p#分页标题#e#
In fact, these two modes are also present in other devices, but QUIZZ is more intelligent. The reason for limiting to 16 puffs, in my understanding, is to ensure that each puff delivers a rich flavor, and this was indeed the case during the experience.
Now, let's discuss the flavor experience with QUIZZ.
Installing the pod: Open the top cover and insert the pod.
Power on/off: Quickly press the power button 5 times to turn on (white light flashes 3 times) or turn off (red light flashes 3 times).
Smoking: Quickly press the button 3 times, the LED light will flash white for 30 seconds, and the LED light will stay on white and vibrate once, indicating that smoking can begin. When reaching the 13th puff, it vibrates once, and after the 16th puff, it stops working. During use, it was found that it is not necessary to wait for the white light to stay on; about 10 seconds is enough to produce vapor, although the flavor may be lighter. After 30 seconds (which is also when the preheating is complete), the flavor becomes richer and more stable.
Regarding the flavor: I personally used the Mild Mint pod, and the flavor was very pronounced from the first puff. The vapor was smooth, with a cool sensation accompanying the entire smoking process, lingering even after finishing. The tobacco flavor was relatively mild, which I personally liked. However, towards the last few puffs, the vapor volume decreased, and the flavor became lighter. This indicates that QUIZZ has excellent carbonization effects on the pods.
Pause/resume: If you want to stop smoking during the process, quickly press the button 3 times to stop working. To resume smoking, you can turn it back on, preheat, and continue smoking.
Regarding cleaning: After smoking, remove the pod and pod holder, then use the cleaning brush to clean the pod holder (to avoid burning fingers). To clean the heating needle, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds (the blue and white lights will flash alternately), and after 30 seconds, stop cleaning, with the motor vibrating twice. For cleaning the heating chamber, spray a small amount of dedicated cleaning liquid on the cleaning brush (moisten the brush without any flowing liquid), then insert the damp cleaning brush into the heating chamber and rotate it 5-6 times.
Like most heat-not-burn e-cigarettes, QUIZZ supports continuous smoking, meaning that after finishing one pod, you can use the next pod without waiting for cooling. However, due to the material of the device, when using the second pod, the device will noticeably heat up. To address this issue, the manufacturer has designed a reset button, which serves to quickly cool down the device.
Reset button: When feeling that the temperature is too high or too low, you can use a toothpick or sharp object to press and hold the small hole next to the USB port for 3 seconds. The white light will flash 6 times, and the device can operate normally (if the blue light flashes 6 times, it indicates a reset failure).
In summary, this QUIZZ, resembling a flip-top lighter, is easy to use, compact, and lightweight, with its design being its biggest highlight. Its good flavor performance is also one of its outstanding advantages. While the dual-mode intelligent switching feature may not be overly sophisticated, it is commendable for ensuring flavor quality. The issues of the device overheating and the surface being slippery can be overlooked in light of its advantages. Overall, QUIZZ is a heat-not-burn e-cigarette product worth experiencing seriously. Four QUIZZ devices are ready for you to try.
