I've been going back and forth between the pictures. Can't see it - will have to wait until I get my unit or more info comes out

And hopefully there's a locking mechanism so it doesn't depress in my backpack.
Has anyone seen a plug/stopper for the top of the stem to keep crud out of the stem during travel?
The silicone caps go on the bowl side...

That video https://arizer.com/support/argo-support/ indeed answers most questions. I kind of like it. It at least fits my lifestyle way more than the Arizer Air does. It's just quite expensive.

They should fit both ends, the lip doesn't seem too big

I agree.
Hmm, convection, thought it was a cooker.
How long to get to convection worthy temps?

I can only assume the vapor quality will not be as good on the Argo otherwise what is the point of the Air 2 line? It has to separate itself somehow and that can be the only way. Unless they are purposely saturating their own line to see what people like more and what models work best. The Air 2 isn't the budget line so it can't differentiate there either. Kind of interesting, I guess we'll see!

According to the spec this little thing would weight about the same as a pax. They are leveling up in stealth with this release. I'm eager to see reviews about heatup speed and airflow. The straw will probably need to be lifted off a bit to be used if its proportions are real in the pictures from their site.

I'm assuming it's just like the solo and air when it comes to convection and conduction, but that's only going off of the video..

So, looking at the video, even though it's simulated I think they're showing a real-time version of it heating up which starts at ~0:43. It's showing the set temp of 200C but it then @0:44 it switches to showing 34C so it's almost certainly already started heating at that point or else they're showing it starting from already being quite warm. It then hits 200C at 1:06, so ~23s. Add in the typical few seconds beyond that it's usually advisable to wait with the other Arizers and it's pretty comparable.

I'll be shocked if this anything more than a re-purposed Air to get it shaped like most of the other portables out there. The glass stems are the giveaway for me. That and the exact same control scheme. My money is on it heating and performing just like the others. I do like the recessed stem...good for pocketability!

The top pops up, not the stem going down.
@KidFated. The caps might fit both side, but is there room for one when the top pops up. I'm hoping for a plug or cover as I don't think the caps will work
It's starting to look like that is the case. Faster heat up would be a pretty big improvement though with the form factor change. I was surprised at the relatively small differences in heat up time when the Air and Air 2 were compared.

Someone was wondering if it was RoHS certified, it is https://arizer.com/support/argo-support/

I like what I see. I’m curious to hear impressions once people get their hands on it.

that was the air 2 heater... i was just wondering what could possibly be in the go. personally for me, this is too much silicone near the heater and air intake/heat saturation area.
this device could use a completely different heater. maybe the air 2 and solo 2 was just to deplete existing inventory of parts for those vapes while incorporating it with their new lcd and electronics. Maybe they want to introduce products before any kind of regulation is enforced. I don't know.

but it seems the whole board has changed too due to button placement. maybe there's improvements from the Air 2 and Solo 2.

cui bono?
Yea, until we have more information or some test units in the wild, this looks only like a small form factor improvement to the Air.
Is it better than the Air for pocketability? Yes; but is it better than all of the other competition out there? Not as of right now I guess... This would need to perform exceptionally at $270, though I expect a much lower street price as always with Arizer.
I'm also very curious to see the stem compatibility with Air and Solo. From the pictures it looks like there is a new smaller diameter bowl, but it's hard to say. I have too many Air/Solo stems.

It's odd but I swear I saw a picture of the unit with a stem and battery in the same shot this morning but when I just went to show it to someone here at home and couldn't find that one picture for the life of me.

Top of the accessories page...
https://arizer.com/store/argo-parts-accessories/
On that same page it says the stems compatible with the Argo only...
Just notice they sell screens, but in the description advise not to use them
