Simple pen-style pod use
OXVA VAPES UK VERDICT — 2026
The Artio is OXVA greatest most affordable kit at £8.49 and the fastest to charge (30 minutes). It is a solid first vape for someone switching from disposables who wants simplicity. The 550mAh battery and proprietary pod system mean it suits occasional vapers — for heavier daily use, the XLIM Go Lite is a better long-term buy.
Is the OXVA Artio right for you?
✓ CHOOSE ARTIO IF...
- You want the cheapest quality OXVA device (£8.49)
- Simple draw-activated vaping is all you need
- You vape lightly (4–6 hours battery is enough)
- A 30-minute full charge is convenient for you
- You are replacing a disposable vape
✗ AVOID ARTIO IF...
- You vape heavily all day (550mAh will run out)
- You want to use XLIM pods (they do not fit)
- You want watt adjustment or output control
- You prefer a device with a larger pod choice
Artio vs XLIM Go Lite — Which Budget Kit Wins?
Our recommendation: If you can stretch to the XLIM Go Lite, do — the XLIM pod system gives you far more options as you find your preferred resistance and flavour. But if £8.49 is the budget, the Artio is a solid reliable device.
Artio Pods: What to Buy
The Artio uses Artio-specific pods only. These are 2ml refillable pods. Do not buy XLIM, NeXLIM, or ONEO pods for this device — they will not fit.
Artio pods typically last 5–10 days with regular use. Signs it needs replacing: burnt taste, reduced vapour, or visible discolouration inside the pod.
OXVA Artio — Frequently Asked Questions
What pods does the OXVA Artio use?
Artio-specific replacement pods only. Not compatible with XLIM, NeXLIM, ONEO, or VPrime pods. Always buy pods labelled for the Artio.

Is the Artio a good first vape?
Yes — at £8.49 with no settings to learn and a 30-minute charge it is one of the most beginner-friendly options. For heavier daily use, the XLIM Go Lite is a better investment.
Burnt taste on your Artio?
