In Defence of the Boring Device
The devices we actually use every day have one thing in common: we never think about them.
Exciting devices get reviewed. Boring devices get used. Look at what’s actually in the pockets of the people who write this site and you’ll find a surprising number of plain, unremarkable pods.
What boring really means
It means reliable. It means the cartridge seals properly, the battery lasts and nothing needs explaining. That’s not a lack of ambition; it’s the hardest thing to get right.
Exhibit A: a no-settings starter pod like the Vaporesso ECO NANO PLUS. Exhibit B: everything on this list that it doesn’t have.
