A review of the new Innokin Kroma-Z with everything you need to know about the kit!
Note: This product has been discontinued. We have a large collection of current vape kits available.
Following the success of the Kroma-R, Innokin is here to impress with a new Kroma pod device, the Innokin Kroma-Z Pod Kit.
The Innokin Kroma-Z arrives in a relatively understated white cardboard box. The whole packaging is 100% eco friendly and can go right to the paper recycling bin. It was a brave decision to skip the fancy boxes, and I’m glad Innokin is doing their best to be more environmentally friendly.
The device is ready to vape out of the box; the pod comes preinstalled with an MTL dip trip, the 0.8 Ohm Z coil and an airflow ring.
After opening everything, we find ourselves with a few extra bits on the table:
I was glad to see the length of the 30-inch cable, and I’m sure anyone who tried to vape while charging with those minuscule ones will feel the same.
The Innokin Kroma-Z looks heavy and expensive, but it’s surprisingly light thanks to the Magnesium Alloy body. The matte rubberised coating is a nice touch, the Kroma-Z feels great to hold, and it’s not slipping out of my hand like the shiny plastic devices.
Judging by the picture of the colourway, it seems like this finish is not consistent throughout the line, so keep that in mind.
To place the airflow adjustment control right under the thumb was thoughtful, it’s convenient to use, and it’s not in the way.
I’ve been surprised when I realised the LCD screen on the side is one enormous fire button. The screen is bright, and easy to read - the most critical information; the wattage stands out.
It is particularly impressive for me to have a 3000mAh battery in an MTL pod device. Unfortunately, I tend to forget to charge my vape, so I’m always looking for something more long-lasting, but I wasn’t ready to give up my pods.
I had high expectations for the quick charge, but it is not that quick – we have a massive battery here. Even with the USB-C, it takes more than an hour to charge the Innokin Kroma-Z. In return, you don’t have to worry about it for days. I mostly vape MTL, 300 puffs barely makes any difference.
I’ve been glad to see I don’t have to remove the pod to fill it – finally! I’m not sure, why is this feature not more common, as it’s a lot more convenient on the go: no more juggling with the body, pod and juice on the street.
The pod locks in place with two strong magnets, and it’s not moving the slightest. The majority of us prefer transparent pods, but it’s hard to deny the grey colour looks excellent on the Kroma-Z. I didn’t have an issue checking the juice level, as it’s see-through enough, and not hidden in the body – holding it up towards a direct light source does the trick.
The Kroma-Z is compatible with the entire Innokin Z-Coil line up. You can choose between 7 coils, all readily available, and after a quick comparison, I found them remarkably affordable compared to other popular brands.
Millions of people have used them, and I’m not surprised; my favourite juices tasted excellent during the test.
I especially love the new, 0.3 Ohm RDL coil, and I will definitely get a whole pack of them.
It could be challenging for a beginner to remember each coil’s recommended wattage level. The Smart Coil ID steps in here: it identifies the coil, and suggests a suitable setting. The system works well, making new vapers life so much easier.
If you’re a more advanced user and like to decide for yourself, you can adjust the wattage range between 6W-40W with the two small buttons under the screen.
I left the best to last – the 510 adapter. If you’re curious how is it to vape with a tank, but not ready to commit, invest too much, or you have a Z-coil tank already, but wouldn’t mind a lighter packet... The Kroma-Z has your back.
It’s super straightforward to use, as it features the same magnetic lock-in as the pod: pop the pod out, pop the adapter in, done. You’ve got a super compact and lightweight mod, and your whole kit is working together seamlessly.
Unfortunately, it’s not included in the box, but at least it’s not an expensive add on.
Some of these are subjective, so take what you will from them.
Overall Rating: 4.35 Stars
The Innokin Kroma-Z is fantastic, and I had to think hard to find the cons. Nothing is perfect in life, but this one comes close to it.
A compact pod device, with a remarkable battery, MTL and RDL draw, which you can turn it into a mod.. what else could we wish? You can fine-tune it to the smallest details, and just vape away for days.
