The Aspire Pockex is a well known starter kit but using the right coil to the juice you are using is vital. 1.2 keeps you a smooth throat hit whilst the 0.6ohm coils may give you a bit of scratchy throat!

I’ve bought 5 of these, I really like the battery life and juice capacity, it’s flavourful and the draw is pleasant, great, but my biggest peeve is they’re just sooo leaky.
I have oil stains all over tops, bags, jeans, all over my cushions and sofa, whenever I lay it down, it’s so infuriating!
The paint also scratches and chips really easy, so it looks naff really quickly.. top tip, buy the silver one.

This is my go-to for something to vape around other people who might not want a big cloud blown in their face. It is also the kit that made me realise what my vaping style really is, as I went through at least one coil a day to make it perform how I wanted it to when it was my main kit.
Long story short, I smoked hookah first, then switched to cigarettes out of convenience, so I probably never smoked cigarettes 'the right way' to begin with, and DTL is very much my preferred vaping style, even as a new vaper (I was 'tricked' by the 'common knowledge' that former cigarette smokers would prefer a higher Ohm). Based on research, I first went straight MTL, which didn't suit at all, then went Pockex 0.6. The 0.6 Ohm coils, as it turns out, are not quite low enough for me, but, as I said, good for social vaping, as the clouds aren't large enough to bother bystanders too much.
For a lot of people, the coils will probably last longer, but not if you really want to take it deep. Again, probably down to your personal style.
It spits quite a bit, and can make a bit of a mess, too, but I always felt the flavour comes through quite well. I like the size and aesthetics of it. For some people, I believe this will hands down be their favourite kit. It's just not quite my preferred vaping style.

Decent vape, got a bit hot charging and started to leak after 2-3 months use.

Great little kit to start off with or if your an experienced vaper. I found this very easy to use with no added complications. However after 5 months of using the device it has started to leak liquid a little from the screw off top which is a bit annoying and cannot figure out what has gone wrong. Changing coils can be a bit messy also avoiding liquid loss.

Really wanted to love this piece of kit but for me the refilling part let it down.
The changing of coils and refilling can be a bit messy and you have to be pretty precise with how much liquid you put in to make sure it doesn’t overflow when you put the coil back in. Also found it gurgled most of the time (not a major issue) but there was also quite a lot of spit back after refilling.
Apart from those points it a good bit of kit, great price!...really easy to use, one button, and good flavour -would be perfect for a beginner new to vaping. Just wasn’t for me.

I tried so hard to love this kit, has a great style about it, but one fatal flaw I experienced with this kit is related to the refilling part. Almost everytime I had to refil with eliquid, gurgling and spitting happened, the only way to clear this was by blowing hard to clear it all out, which became a very messy process. Not sure if this was down to the coils or not, but I found it a pain. When it did vape, it was fab, but I hated the refilling part!

I bought the PockeX as an upgrade from my starter vape.
It's low profile, creates a great taste and the replaceable upper part saved me from buying a new device on a few occasion.
With that said this device is NOT built to last IMO. After a month liquid kept leaking out from the top vents making for a rather poor experience. I ended up having to carry it around in a pouch to avoid ruining my clothes and I ended up ingesting liquid on more than a few occasion.
It's cheap and does the trick but don't count on it to last you more than 6 months.

I have used this vape pen for good few month. Unfortunately I end up replacing every single one of the pens. The bottom part where you plug in the charger constantly breaks. The part which holds the cable. It leaks, no matter how many times the coil is changed. Despite all that, I have enjoyed using it but it worked only fine for 2-3 months at a time and I had to ask for a replacement. Not from the the vale club though. I have suggested that this is looked into and improved and I have now gone through 4th pen and the same part came apart.
Easy Maintenance, good coils.
