Vaporesso has introduced the budget-friendly Vaporesso OSMALL, a pod system that offers great value at a suggested retail price of only $14. This device bears similarities to other popular pod devices in the market, such as the Zero, which was also a successful offering from Vaporesso.
Design
The OSMALL features a flat and wide shape, which allows for easy pocket storage without any discomfort. Vaporesso has aimed for minimalism without compromising on style, as evidenced by the sleek glossy finish and thin strips on the casing that creates a textured surface. The device comes in a range of attractive colors, including black, dark blue, dark red, gray, red, rose, blue, and gold.
Dimensions
With a height of 84.2mm (3.3 inches), a width of 26.5mm (1 inch), and a thickness of 13.4mm (0.5 inches), the OSMALL lives up to its name by being compact and portable.
Features and Functions
The device does not feature any buttons, as it activates automatically when you take a hit. With an output power of 11 watts, it is not designed for producing massive clouds. However, Vaporesso's coils are known for their efficiency, ensuring a satisfying vaping experience.
Flavor
Vaporesso claims that the OSMALL delivers the purest tasting experience and faithfully reproduces the flavor of your e-liquid without any deviation. After using the device for several months, I can attest that the flavor is excellent. Vaporesso has a strong reputation for producing high-quality coils, and OSMALL is no exception.
Pods
The pods are easily inserted into the device and held in place by two small magnets. They come with built-in coils, meaning that when the coil wears out or the flavor diminishes, you need to replace the entire pod. Replacement pods are reasonably priced at $5 for a pack of two, offering good value for money. The 1.2-ohm coil inside the pod utilizes flax cotton and non-woven fabrics, similar to the coils used in Vaporesso's other tanks.
Each pod has a 2ml e-liquid capacity, which is standard for devices of this nature. This capacity is more than sufficient for a tight-draw device like the OSMALL. Filling the pod is easy—simply open the seal on the side of the pod.
Performance
Vaporesso describes the OSMALL as a system designed for high nicotine delivery, which is a common characteristic of pod systems. It excels when used with high-nicotine e-liquids, providing satisfying hits and an enjoyable throat hit.
Battery
The OSMALL is equipped with a 350mAh battery, which is typical for devices of this size. Depending on your vaping frequency, you may be able to achieve a full day of usage. However, in my experience, it is likely that you will need to charge it daily or even once or twice throughout the day. The device charges using a micro USB cable and can be vaped while charging.
Safety Features
The OSMALL incorporates various safety features, including short-circuit protection, overcharge protection, over-discharge protection, overtime protection, and low voltage protection.

Final Thoughts
The Vaporesso OSMALL is an excellent pod device that delivers a satisfying vaping experience. I have been using it for months, almost on a daily basis, and have found it to be highly enjoyable. The device performs exceptionally well with high-nicotine liquids, offering a near-perfect throat hit, restricted airflow, and outstanding flavor. It has become one of my favorite pod devices.
However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The device features a relatively small battery capacity, requiring frequent charging. Additionally, the OSMALL utilizes a micro USB cable for charging, whereas many manufacturers are transitioning to USB-C. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Vaporesso OSMALL remains a solid choice for a pod device.
