OXVA VPrime 2 Review: 7 Key Specs & Price (Dubai, 2026)
In this guide
Overview
This OXVA VPrime 2 review covers the most powerful pod kit in our range: a 3,400mAh battery, 5–60W adjustable output, OXVA’s UniTech Mesh dual-coil pod system that supports MTL, RDL and DTL from the same 2ml pod, a 0.98-inch colour screen with a Smart Mode that sets wattage for the coil automatically, and Type-C fast charging, sold in Dubai for AED 130 in six finishes. It replaces the original VPrime with a bigger battery and a new pod platform, and on paper it is the pod kit to consider if you want one device to cover every draw style.
Key takeaways:
- 3,400mAh is the largest battery in the comparison table below.
- UniTech Mesh dual-coil pods give true MTL, RDL and DTL from one device.
- Smart Mode removes the wattage guesswork; manual mode goes to 60W.
- AED 130 for the kit; replacement VPrime pods AED 35.
- Suits vapers who want a flagship pod kit rather than a box mod, or who switch between draw styles.

OXVA VPrime 2 Review: Design, Build and Display
The VPrime 2 is a tall, rounded-rectangle pod mod with a zinc-alloy frame and inlaid panels that range from carbon-effect and gloss shard finishes to a brown leather wrap. It is larger than a typical pod kit because of the 3,400mAh cell, closer in size to a small single-battery mod, with rounded edges and a 105-gram weight. The front carries a 0.98-inch colour screen showing wattage, battery, resistance and puff count, with a fire button and two adjustment buttons below; the device can also be draw-activated.
On paper the build follows OXVA’s flagship pod-kit formula. The frame is zinc alloy with inlaid panels, the pod seats magnetically, and the top-fill cap is a flip design. An airflow slider on the side runs from a restricted MTL setting to a wide-open DTL setting, which is what lets one pod platform cover several draw styles. At 3,400mAh and 105 grams the kit is bigger than a compact pod device, so it suits a jacket pocket or bag more than a slim trouser pocket. Against the original VPrime, the 2 lists a 0.98-inch screen (0.96-inch on the original) and a larger battery. We have not stress-tested the finish, so check the panels and pod fit on arrival and verify the authenticity code.
Pods, Coils and Pod Specs
The VPrime 2 uses OXVA’s UniTech Mesh pods, which pair two mesh coils in a single 2ml cartridge and are the reason one device can cover every draw style. The kit ships with two pods, a low-resistance one for RDL and DTL and a higher-resistance one for MTL, and replacements cost AED 35. OXVA positions the higher-resistance MTL pod for nicotine salt and the low-resistance pod for freebase at higher wattage. Flavour depends on the liquid, the nicotine type and the wattage you set; we have not tested flavour ourselves, so treat this as a specification overview.
OXVA’s dual-mesh design spreads the heat across two coils, which is the manufacturer’s basis for longer pod life than a typical single-coil pod. Real pod life still depends on wattage, liquid sweetness and how well you prime the pod, and we have not measured it. The pod is top-filled and holds 2ml, so heavy users will refill often. If you want to understand why dual mesh can last, our mesh vs single coil guide explains it, and our coil life guide covers what shortens it.
Battery and Charging Specs
At 3,400mAh the VPrime 2 has the largest battery in the comparison table below, and it charges over Type-C with fast charging. Runtime depends on wattage and puffing habits: a low-wattage MTL pod draws far less from the cell than the DTL pod at high wattage, and the 5–60W range means the same battery can last very different lengths of time. We have not measured battery life or charging time, so check OXVA’s stated figures before relying on a number.
For anyone coming from a 1,000mAh pod kit, 3,400mAh is more than three times the capacity on paper, which generally means fewer top-ups. The trade-off is size: the VPrime 2 is for someone who would rather carry a bigger device than charge more often. Our pod kit battery guide explains how to read mAh against wattage, and our UAE heat safety guide covers charging a big cell safely in summer.
Airflow, Power Modes and Draw Styles
The airflow slider spans a restricted MTL setting to a wide-open DTL setting, with a broad RDL zone between them, so the airflow closed down with the MTL pod suits a tight, cigarette-like draw and open with the DTL pod suits an airy lung hit. Smart Mode reads the pod’s resistance and sets a recommended wattage automatically. Manual mode lets you adjust in 1W steps up to 60W. The wattage the device suggests is a starting point, not a measured optimum.
Smart Mode is aimed at vapers who have never adjusted wattage and want the VPrime 2 to behave like a simple pod kit, while manual mode gives range to those who want to tune output. The screen shows a puff counter and resistance readout. As a general rule, the MTL pod is paired with lower wattage and the DTL pod with higher wattage, and the wattage should follow the pod. Our MTL vs DTL explainer covers the draw styles and our coil resistance guide explains why.
E-Liquid and Nicotine Strength for the UAE
The VPrime 2 is a refillable device and carries no nicotine itself; compliance depends on the liquid you put in it. In the UAE that means e-liquid at or under the 20mg/ml cap with the ECAS/MoIAT compliance mark on the bottle. For the MTL pod, a 10–20mg nicotine salt is the usual match; for the DTL pod, a 3–6mg freebase is the usual choice, because a 20mg salt at high wattage is far too strong. Our UAE nicotine cap explainer covers the rule and our nic salt guide and freebase guide list what we stock.
Because the device supports both MTL and DTL, an adult nicotine user can start on MTL salt and later try DTL without buying a second device. Our nicotine strength guide helps match strength to habit and draw. Nicotine is addictive, and vaping products are sold only to adults aged 18 and over under UAE regulations; the UAE’s tobacco provisions are published at u.ae.
Who Should Buy the OXVA VPrime 2
Buy it if you want one pod kit that covers several draw styles: on paper it offers MTL, RDL and DTL support, a 3,400mAh battery, a colour screen and dual-mesh pods. It suits a vaper stepping up from a basic pod kit, a box-mod user who wants something simpler without giving up power, and anyone who wants fewer charges. At AED 130 it is priced in line with or below several kits in the table below that list less battery.
Skip it if you want a pocket device; the OXVA NeXlim 2 Mini and Xlim series are the compact OXVAs and our NeXlim 2 Mini review covers the smaller option. Skip it if you only ever vape MTL at low power and would never use the top half of its range, in which case the NeXlim 2 at AED 125 is the more sensible buy. Our best pod kit guide and pod mod guide cover the alternatives and the OXVA brand hub lists the full range.
Value, Running Costs and How to Buy in Dubai
For this OXVA VPrime 2 review, price is the other spec that matters. At AED 130 the VPrime 2 sits in the middle of the flagship pod-kit band: the original VPrime is AED 125, the NeXlim 2 AED 125, the Vaporesso Luxe XR Max AED 135, the VOOPOO Drag X2 AED 140 and the Geekvape Aegis Hero 5 AED 170. Running costs are pod and liquid: replacement UniTech pods are AED 35, and how long each lasts depends on wattage, liquid and draw style. Our disposable vs pod vs refillable comparison explains how refillable running costs compare over a year.

OXVA VPrime 2 vs OXVA VPrime
The 2 adds 800mAh, the UniTech dual-mesh pod platform and a sharper screen for AED 5 more; the original keeps a 5ml pod. Unless the bigger tank matters more than pod life and battery, the 2 is the one to buy.
OXVA VPrime 2 vs OXVA NeXlim 2
The NeXlim 2 is smaller, tops out at 40W and is MTL/RDL only, for AED 5 less; the VPrime 2 adds DTL, 60W and a much bigger battery. MTL-only vapers who want a pocket device take the NeXlim 2, per our NeXlim 2 review; everyone else the VPrime 2.
Setting up the VPrime 2
Fill the pod, let it sit five minutes so the dual mesh saturates, seat it, and let Smart Mode set the wattage before adjusting. Close the airflow for salt liquid in the MTL pod and open it fully for freebase in the DTL pod.
Maintenance and pod life
Wipe the pod contacts weekly, keep the pod topped above the coil ports, and change it when flavour dulls rather than waiting for a burnt hit. Our burnt-taste guide and leaking guide cover the common issues.
Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 3,400mAh battery, the largest in the comparison table | 105 g and tall, so less pocketable |
| UniTech dual-mesh 2ml pods for MTL, RDL and DTL | 2ml pod is small for DTL use at high wattage |
| 5–60W output with Smart Mode and 1W manual steps | Only two pod resistances in the box |
| 0.98-inch colour screen and adjustable airflow slider | More than a low-power MTL-only vaper needs |
| Type-C fast charging; AED 130 with AED 35 replacement pods | Nicotine strength depends on your liquid; use at or under the 20mg/ml UAE cap |
