OXVA V-PRIME, the power player
The V-PRIME is in a different class for power. A 2600mAh battery drives up to 60W output, which is enough to push from tight MTL all the way to airy DTL clouds in a single device, making it the most versatile here. It is built to feel premium, with a zinc alloy body and leather and IML accents, a vivid 0.96 inch full-colour screen, 0.01 second auto-draw, adjustable airflow, and 5ml top-fill V-Prime pods. At R729 it is the top of this comparison, aimed at vapers who want real cloud power in a pod form factor. The full V-Prime review goes deeper.
Xlim 3 Ultra, the touchscreen all-rounder
The Xlim 3 Ultra takes a different path. Rather than chasing wattage, it focuses on a refined everyday experience built around its 2.2 inch HD touchscreen, the largest display in the XLIM family. You tap and swipe to control settings and view data. It runs a 1500mAh battery with fast Type-C charging, adjustable airflow for MTL and RDL, and takes the full range of widely available XLIM top-fill pods. At R649 it is R80 cheaper than the V-PRIME and aimed at vapers who prioritise interface refinement over raw power.
