Everyone is talking like the S&B and the Mighty/Crafty sucks and yet they're likely the best selling portable vape of all time?
Like I said in the other thread previously (not sure why there are two now), just because something is best-selling doesn't mean it appeals to the more experienced vaporists here... Many of us have experience with mighty and do indeed feel like it pretty much sucks all in all compared to our others lol
I just don't understand how people can care so much about aesthetics when great function in a world of already sparse quality portable flower vapes is so rare. Maybe my functions standards are as high as other's aesthetics? lol
Huh? It's not about the aesthetics, that's pretty much all we know about it now, and those have not indicated any innovation (seems to suggest the same function and yeah it is pretty ugly many of us feel so that is easy to tease over when there has only been teases of the device so far) I actually think great function and great quality is not at all rare in portable flower vapes today... If your function standards are so high, I don't know why you would be even remotely interested in anything from s&b...?
I don't even vape flower anymore because I think all the portable vapes suck, so i'm hoping that this one has SOMETHING that will be incredible
Yeah I think many of us just disagree with this opinion, I have a lot of great portable vapes that I rely on more than my plugins personally, I remember being interested in the mighty and then finally trying it to confirm it was not very interesting at all lol Even if this one has some improvements compared to the mighty I don't see how it could possibly be anything described as incredible...? From what we know so far at least in my opinion, it is lackluster meh here
just get excited when one of the OG's releases a brand new product which doesn't happen very often
This is fair, it is exciting, even if it is often super uninspiring... Arizer and Pax also recently launched new devices, but the core tech has remained unchanged almost entirely throughout all their portable products... Very much like s&b, so maybe it's not exciting, ultimately, but it is interesting for news of a new vape? Honestly I find it more entertaining when something totally new from a totally new place comes along even if it is often just as disappointing if not moreso and you will often see even more skepticism from others and typically more innovation even if poorly executed...
They might be better for some, but a lot of people want a portable that just works out of the box where they don't have to worry about scorching their load or any special technique
Yeah many of the great ones don't have these issues, it depends on the person, some people never experience any of these problems, some people want something mindless that does all the work for them... There are trade-offs then so it depends on the person and their use style... To say a lot of people want this, I think a lot of people want that (more versatility and power and better purity) too, the metrics are irrelevant especially when the market itself is pretty damn small for most it's just the reach of a company like this sort of taints results of any supposed objective research imo
The man makes a pretty strong bird...
my full response is pending herbalizer cralwing out from under s&b's boot, or vapman being certified asa medical device.
Huh? The medical certification is such a joke, almost entirely meaningless, marketing BS that really misleads many imo so pretty disheartening to me that they prey on people like this (although the idea of getting it free with insurance etc I'm sure there are a lot of perks that many medical patients appreciate from it, but like the idea that it is fully safe and medical is ridiculous and that is I think largely the impression people have...)
