Design
The ARGUS A stands out with its sleek and robust design, made from zinc and aluminum alloy, giving it a premium feel without being overly heavy. The device's compact size makes it perfect for on-the-go vaping, and the inclusion of a lanyard adds a helpful carrying option. The finish is smooth, and the ergonomic shape fits comfortably in the hand.. Additionally, the bright and clear screen provides all the necessary information, such as wattage, battery life, and puff count.
Pods
The ARGUS Top Fill Cartridges are a highlight, featuring a 3 mL capacity that's suitable for daily use without constant refilling. The top-fill mechanism is user-friendly, reducing the mess that sometimes comes with bottom-fill designs. It is a little bit unfortunate that it is difficult to use the top-fill with this device. The pod sits pretty low in the device, which makes it almost impossible to open the rubber plug for filling. I personally still have to take the pod out to properly fill it. The 0.4 Ω and 0.7 Ω resistance options cater to different vaping styles, from a tighter mouth-to-lung draw to a more open direct-to-lung hit. The PCTG material feels durable, and I had no issues with leakage during my testing period.
Performance
Performance-wise, the ARGUS A delivers consistently. The device operates within a 5-30 W range, providing enough power for both flavor and cloud chasers. The 1100 mAh battery is decent, lasting me a full day and a half of moderate vaping. Charging is quick and efficient with the Type-C port, usually taking about an hour to reach full capacity. I appreciate the fact that the Type-C port is on the side, so the device can comfortably stand upright while charging. Another standout feature is the well-placed airflow control, which is easily adjustable and prevents accidental blocking during use. The flavor production is excellent, especially with the 0.4 Ω coil, which I found to be perfect for my preferred e-liquids. Additionally, the adjustable wattage control allows for fine-tuning your vaping experience to your liking.

Cons

Verdict
Overall, the ARGUS A by Voopoo is a solid choice for vapers seeking a reliable, stylish, and efficient device. It excels in design and ease of use, with great flavor production and adequate battery life for most users. The inclusion of adjustable wattage control is a significant advantage, allowing for a customized vaping experience. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced vaper, the ARGUS A is worth considering for your next vape.
