Hard to tell with the picture but are they using a coil system or a ceramic bucket ?

It's hard to tell, but to me, it looks like a combo with the element being built into the ceramic bottom of the bucket, but I could be wrong.
I would like to see a way to use quartz, but it's not necessary. The ceramic works fine in my Peak and dr dabber boost. Hell, If I throw a ceramic Peak insert into the 20mm Liger it hits pretty nicely too! I don't mind ceramic, but cleaning has to be done with heat and that will affect the longevity of the coils for sure on this unit. But this is all speculation from me for now of course, I don't have one.

clarification, All of my quartz inserts were too big for the vista mini
So how is this thing! How does it compare to high-end enails like the Liger or portables like the Peak??

I have several small quartz inserts from the 16mm Liger that may fit? How wide is the opening. Is the ceramic bowl removable or are you putting the quartz inside the current bowl?

If so quartz inserts would be out but that's not a deal breaker. The ceramic works fine in my Peak and dr dabber boost.

I do not mind the ceramic as well , the peak has made me realize that. I do not like the Dr.Dabber switch style of ceramic though as it is a spray on coating of ceramic , sprayed in the bucket and I have seen images with it coming off. If the Vista mini uses the same style it is not for me.

Apologies for not sharing more info

Xvape is updating the vista mini and they'll be releasing it in a few weeks.

They've been revising and improving the atomizer, which is the ONLY thing I didn't like about my test unit.
Yeah I have a photo. It’s a ceramic cup like the Peak.

I have a tracking number! Can’t wait to see this thing!

I was set to order one but when I started talking to beta testers it seemed like they still had work to do.
I was scared to buy one since no one would post a dab video of even the old atomizer, let alone a revised one that they liked :( Plus I can't get any information on the atomizer from them so Please keep us posted!

As long as it hit somewhere around what a Peak hits like I will buy a few.
It wouldn't be hard to match the quality of a Peak atomizer...they aren't that nice. BUT they do hit great.

Wow. That's an ugly looking thing, compared to what it's trying to copy at least.
It really looks "cheap".

Yowza, that's looking like a ceramic plate heater atomizer and not actually a heated bucket! What do you guys think?

Also the temp settings are quite disappointing for my taste if those numbers are accurate.

I think I'm gonna just have to bite the bullet on the Peak.

EXCELSIOR!
Cheap compared to what? The Peak sure doesn’t look like it’s worth $400.

HaHaHa for sure buddy and backed up their poor record in response to problems.
$400 price for you to be a alpha/beta tester, lol.
We should demand more as consumers , we need the return option protection
of good resellers like that Amazon prime, Costco , Wally world, Sam's ect..
Then we won't get hosed with I'm sorry but you can't return our lies & failures.

Let's hope that @invertedisdead is incorrect that this atty is what it appears to be,
but it sure looks like he is reading it right. Maybe there is a donut under the flat plate?

Also the battery is 18650 and not replaceable & not rechargeable with external charge?
What happened to it's not safe to charge with USB? So the whole thing is disposable?

Frustrating having a capitalistic consumer economy with non of the protections from liers, scammers & well intentioned underperformers with overpriced products.
The free market would work if we could vote with our money by rejecting bad products
and sub par excuses for warranties.

Aww, that looks extremely disappointing. That is a straight up, "OEN" type ceramic heater from 2 years ago with no cup or insert :( That is pretty much a Divine Tribe V2.5 with a bubbler attached and no or very little TC! :doh::lol::bang:
Strong pass on this vape pen, and yes, if this is worth $100 then my Peak is easily worth $400. LOL

Damn, Can I trade the wireless charging feature for an insert!

Xvape might be 2 years late on this one. The only thing that could redeem it is if we can use a tiny quartz insert over that and the high temp is high enough to work with that...but I doubt it.

All of the pictures on the Top Green site are exactly the same as what was shown a month ago. I don't think they're new.

I have yet to see a photo of the NEW atomizer. I have one on the way. if its a fail I will gladly let everyone know.

This is the first photo of the actual atomizer I've seen. Was there one posted in here somewhere?

Someone had mentioned , I believe here that it does use a bucket but it was smaller than the peaks . I think don’t quote me . Maybe re-read the 3 pages of posts . I hope so .

It’s correct that I saw a photo that amounted to a ceramic bucket similar to the Peak. That is not to say that the photo in the TopGreen link is incorrect. The photo I saw, was from a top shot, it looks like it is a ceramic bucket inside, with that metal atomizer design around the outside.

I'm hoping what you saw is the NEW atomizer. The old one was not a bucket and it needs to be a bucket.

We are thinking it’s a ceramic plate rather than a ceramic bucket? If so, what is the functional difference? After all, the Peak ceramic bucket simply sits on top of a ceramic plate atomizer...
