We rotated each device through commute pockets, desk sessions, and longer evening use. In our testing, we scored flavor, throat hit, vapor production, and airflow and draw in repeated short and long sessions.

We separately tracked battery life, leak resistance, build quality, ease of use, and portability. We also paid close attention to condensation, heat buildup, consistency as the battery dropped, and how easy each device was to refill and carry.

Dr. Adrian Walker reviewed how we described irritation and discomfort so those notes stayed neutral and non-medical. This is experience-based testing, not medical advice.

Our Testing Experience

The A3S was the one we grabbed when we wanted something small, light, and predictable. In everyday testing it disappeared in a pocket, fired cleanly, and never felt fussy. Jamal liked it for short breaks because the draw stayed steady and the mouthpiece was comfortable.

We ran it as a tight MTL setup and kept the pace realistic. Our testing showed clean flavor and very little learning curve, but the small battery and 2mL pod made the limits obvious once we pushed it past quick sessions. It works best as a low-fuss pocket device, not as a harder-hitting all-day primary.

• What we liked:

  • Clean, consistent MTL draw for short sessions

  • Very pocket-friendly with almost no carry burden

  • Easy to use with almost no setup friction

• Who it is best for:

  • Adults who want a simple refillable MTL pod

  • Commuters who care most about light carry

  • Users who take short, frequent pulls

• Where it falls short:

  • Small battery for heavier daily use

  • Limited headroom for RDL-style vaping

  • 2mL pod means more frequent refills

Our Testing Experience

The G3 felt like the safest day-to-day pick in the group. We used it through commutes, desk breaks, and longer evening sessions, and it held its character better than the A3S as the battery dropped. The screen and wattage control made it easy to fine-tune without turning every refill into tinkering.

In our testing, the G3 gave the best blend of flavor, draw flexibility, and convenience. It stayed stable on longer pulls and handled moderate output well. The trade-off is that performance shifts noticeably with pod choice and airflow setting, so the same device can feel tighter or looser depending on how you set it up.

• What we liked:

  • Adjustable power changes the vape in a noticeable way

  • Strong flavor clarity at moderate wattage

  • Useful flexibility without coil-swapping upkeep

• Who it is best for:

  • Adults who want a daily MTL/RDL pod

  • Users who like small adjustments, not full tinkering

  • People who care about consistent flavor and draw

• Where it falls short:

  • Not built for true DTL vaping

  • Pod choice changes the experience more than some users expect

  • Still smaller than higher-output pod kits

Pros & Cons

Details

• Device type: Refillable pod system

• Battery: 900mAh (internal)

• Pod capacity: 2.5mL

• Max output: Up to 25W

• Activation: Draw or button firing

• Pod options: Integrated 0.6Ω, 0.9Ω, and 1.2Ω pods

Our Testing Experience

The Caliburn X asked for a little more attention, but it paid that back with more control. We used it during work breaks and longer evening sessions, and the screen made it easy to repeat the same wattage and airflow settings across tests.

Its replaceable-coil setup gave us more room to tune warmth and draw than the A3S or G3. Once dialed in, it felt smooth and steady in the mid-range RDL zone. The downside was upkeep: rushed refills and tired coils dragged performance down faster than on the integrated-pod models.

• What we liked:

  • Replaceable coils give more say over long-term upkeep

  • Stable mid-power performance with useful airflow control

  • Screen makes repeatable settings simple

• Who it is best for:

  • Adults who want MTL/RDL flexibility with replaceable coils

  • Users who do not mind light routine maintenance

  • People who want a little more pod capacity

• Where it falls short:

  • More steps: priming, coils, and timing

  • Bulkier carry than the slim Caliburn sticks

  • Consistency drops faster when refills are rushed

Pros & Cons

Details

• Device type: Pod system with replaceable coils

• Battery: 850mAh (internal)

• Power range: 5–20W

• Pod capacity: 3mL

• Activation: Draw or button firing

• Coil compatibility: Caliburn G-series compatible coils, including 0.8Ω and 1.2Ω options

Our Testing Experience

Crown X was clearly the high-output device in this group. Marcus kept reaching for it when he wanted a real DTL session without carrying a full mod-and-tank setup. In our testing, it changed the room feel immediately: more airflow noise, warmer vapor, and much denser output.

The large pod and stronger battery made it easier to settle into longer sessions, and it stayed more comfortable at higher power than the smaller Caliburn devices. The trade-off was size and management. It is less discreet in a pocket, and higher output makes condensation and general upkeep harder to ignore.

• What we liked:

  • Real power headroom with dense, warm vapor

  • Large pod cuts down refill interruptions

  • Multiple firing modes suit different habits

• Who it is best for:

  • Adults who prefer RDL/DTL airflow and higher output

  • Users who take longer sessions and want fewer refills

  • People who want pod convenience with much stronger performance

• Where it falls short:

  • Bulk and weight hurt stealth carry

  • More settings than a simple pod stick

  • Higher output needs better coil and condensation management

Pros & Cons

Details

• Device type: Pod system with replaceable coils

• Battery: 1500mAh (internal)

• Pod capacity: 5.3mL

• Max output: Up to 60W

• Coil options: 0.3Ω and 0.6Ω mesh coils

• Activation: Draw or button firing with selectable modes

Review Score

The G3 is the most even performer because it avoids obvious weak spots and feels the easiest to live with day after day. Caliburn X stays close, but you give up some simplicity to get coil-based tuning. Crown X clearly leads on vapor and longer-session comfort, while A3S remains the quickest, lightest option when portability matters more than power.

Choose based on how much output and upkeep you actually want. If you want the lightest carry and the easiest routine, A3S makes the most sense for short MTL sessions. If you want the best balance of flavor, control, and daily comfort, G3 is the safest all-around pick. If you like fine-tuning and do not mind coil changes, Caliburn X gives you more control without jumping to a full mod. If you want looser RDL/DTL airflow, longer sessions, and fewer refills, Crown X is the clear step up.

• Caliburn A3S: small battery, small pod, modest vapor output

• Caliburn G3: not true DTL, performance changes with pod choice, still a smaller pod

• Caliburn X: coil upkeep, bulkier carry, less forgiving when refills are rushed

• Crown X: heavier body, more settings, less discreet for everyday pocket use

• Why choose these models:

  • Flavor remains the core strength across the range

  • Build quality feels solid for this size class

  • The lineup covers simple MTL through stronger DTL pod use

• Alternatives to consider:

  • Vaporesso XROS series for simple, consistent MTL use

  • SMOK Nord line for broader pod and coil flexibility

  • Voopoo ARGUS P-series for durable daily carry with adjustable output

• Match your inhalation style first; tight MTL setups feel bad when you force airy RDL habits.

• Refill before the pod gets very low to avoid dry, uneven flavor.

• After refilling, let the pod sit for a few minutes before taking hard pulls.

• Wipe mouthpiece condensation during longer sessions instead of waiting for it to build up.

• Do not raise wattage just because the device allows it; stop when flavor and warmth feel right.

• If the draw suddenly tightens, check the airflow path and pod base for condensation.

• Replace coils or pods when flavor stays muted across multiple refills, not after it turns harsh.

• Charge consistently and avoid leaving the device loose in a hot car or packed bag.

Caliburn A3S. It is the easiest device here to carry and use, and its tight MTL draw stays predictable.

Caliburn G3. It balances flavor, control, portability, and day-to-day consistency better than the others.

Crown X. It has the widest power ceiling and the most comfortable DTL/RDL range in this group.

Caliburn X. Its replaceable-coil setup gives you more control over ongoing upkeep without moving to a full mod.
