Xvape Aria

[LesPlenty]

6 years later, there's now a + version:

The vape features some nice upgrades, including USB-C and a hand-blown borosilicate glass mouthpiece, to name a couple.
I am still waiting on one so I can give a more informed view but it does look like a solid, conduction-heavy vape at a great price.

Would you say it's also an upgrade to a starry 4 ? Or will there be a new version for that one too? Hopefully also with glass mouthpiece as standard )

I am still waiting on my new unit to arrive, it can sometimes take weeks for stuff to get to me in Australia.
I have my fingers crossed that it may show up this week.
The ovens looks very similar, but that said, the Aria still does not have a quick swap battery (one reason it is less expensive than the Starry4)...anyting else will have to wait til I get my unit to be confirmed.
@YuccaPlant, welcome to the forum. I will PM you the details and differences or we can start a new thread as direct comparisons in specific vape threads are usually against forum rules.

Ive had the plus for a few weeks now. I dont really notice much of a difference, but i still like it. The mouthpiece is a little nicer, i guess

I finally got my Aria+ and have been using it for just over a week.

No, quite similar (you can use the Starry4 capsules in the Aria+), but it misses a few nice extras like a removable battery and the maze-type ceramic cooling path to save on costs and keep the vapes' Recommended Retail Price low.

I find the mouthpiece is very nice on the lips and keeps the vapor cool, plus the USB-c makes life much easier...just slight tweaks and a similar low price.
I have found the sweet spot for me is around the 210c/410f to 220c/428f, depending on the strain of herb. I find this gets my ABV quite dark and very evenly roasted (I have not needed to use the on-board stir tool).

In summary, the XVAPE Aria+ is a nice refresh that has not increased the price over the OG (unless you want the Frostwave colour, blue/silver grey) and is an inexpensive way to get into vaping as the conduction method of heating can make vapor production very easily compared to some convection devices that may need larger lung capacity to shift the hot air to vape the herbs evenly.
