Nice list , but Venty being the best pocket /friendly carry is not serious to me . Have you seen someone carrying it in his pocket , i am sure it would be hilarious :D, or at least i do not own a pocket that big to facilitate it .

I carry it in my pocket! I've even carried two in the same pocket. I may be a big man at 5'11 240lb though.

I understand pocket-sizes and preferences vary, which is why I try to include multiple vapes in each best of list.

Well would agree some people have deep pockets that might facilitate it ,but i just dont see how it is more pocket friendly than the smaller vapes listed below it/

it's the compromise between what fits in the pocket and what's worth carrying
no vape, smaller or larger, has beat the venty in the "lets go outside with a vape in my pocket" test

Of the ones mentioned, I simply don't have them. I have a Dani but it's not the most recent, and I haven't reviewed it.

I'd like to cover EU market but right now I'm a US based business
Any feedback on the categories?
i dont know regarding the vaponic, but i think the vaphit is easily available in the us, i know @VGOODIEZ carries it.
i think it would deserve a look, the value is hard to beat. i have only tried the vaphit x but for me it is a favourite regardless of price.

I'm curious though, in those situations, are you giving a fair shake to the smaller other option? To explain further, in my mind, let's go outside with a vape in my pocket test, would always have you reaching for the one you know best...? When you are trying to test something new for review, do you you force yourself to use it in the same ways for a comparison?? Often what's worth carrying, doesn't feel like the new thing that you still have to get to know, so that test seems off

i constantly force myself to test and use the new things that come across my desk.
I also seek out opposing opinions for the sake of understanding the perspective, and I try to shape my testing and my content around those insights.

Greetings and salutations, vape fam!

I've spent several months overhauling my portable vape review page, and I need your feedback.

It started with a spreadsheet of all the portable vaporizers.
I ranked them on a scale of 1-10, and then ranked them again based on the following categories:
- Vapor Potency
- Vapor Comfort
- Portability
- Battery
- Build Quality
- Usability
- Packaging
- Warranty / Brand Reputation
- Maintenance

Question - Do those ranking factors make sense? Is there anything missing?

For my 2025 Best Portable Vaporizer update, I came up with 12 "best of" lists that align with common decision-making factors.
- Best Hard Hitting Portables
- Best Portable Vapes Overall
- Best Value
- Best Vapor
- Best On-Demand
- With Replaceable Battery
- Pocket Friendly Portables
- Butane Vapes
- Best Cheap Vapes
- Portable vaporizers for a bong
- best conduction / stoney high

Question - Do these categories cover all of the major angles? Are any of these categories confusing? What's missing?

Lastly, is the page too big??
Tbh when I started working on it, I had the attitude of "this is my last 420vapezone content" and I wanted it to make it as complete and insightful as possible.
But then it turned into a very big page and I worry that it's too big.
Is it redundant? What can I do to make this page better?

The individual vape rankings are at the bottom of the page here: https://420vapezone.com/best-portable-vaporizers/#All-Portable-Vape-Rankings-Results

for what is worthy, and sorry if something is already been said:
I would add :
“best of” artisanal vapes (instant heat, nomad, tetra, imp, vapman, ….) and best of mass produced ones
best wooden vape (wood being structural, not only a dressing)

I would add durability category or best of durability vapes (dynavap 10 vapman 8 battery powered <6 glass vapes <4) which IMO is a different category from build and an interesting factor of choice (at least to me 😅)

totally OT seeing YLL enhanced in top ten is kind of disturbing even If I reckon I never tasted one, and to your honor “build” and “brand rep” are ranked well under the average of its ranking which is very true but in my opinion build should go to the lower point possible (not between 8 and 9😱), as same as “brand rep” of course, which lead to the next point:

I also would appreciate more distance between entries as already said: 45 vapes between 9,6 and 8,5 seems a lot, as if each vape is great 😅, yet again I didn’t taste the half of the half of that list but seeing dyna M7 being classed only 0,1 out of ten points less than the tempest seems not very accurate to me and do not represent my experience at all, which is more like 9/10 tempest 6,5/7 dynavap

dani vape is very missing in that list IMO

Edit: to remove log vapes and balls vapes that are not so portables, which I missed 😂 I am very high too 😂😂

dani vape is very missing in that list IMO, as log vapes are
great feedback, thank you
YLL will definitely get dinged in brand rep after the fiberglass fiasco. I won't be removing it or de-ranking it.

I am still struggling with the score range, but have to remind myself that this is the best of the best. Perhaps if I also list and rank all the crappy vapes the scoring will show more diversity
