Oxva Nexlim vs Nexlim Go Review – Which Pod Kit Is Best?

If you’re ready to move on from disposable vapes and want something just as simple but far cheaper to run, pod kits such as the Oxva’s Nexlim series will already be on your radar. In this review, we’re putting the Oxva Nexlim and Oxva Nexlim Go head-to-head to see which one deserves a spot in your pocket.

Both kits use the same Nexlim dual mesh pods, both go up to 40W, and both are designed to feel familiar to ex-smokers and disposable users. But they don’t suit exactly the same vaper – especially once you factor in battery size, controls, screen, price and vape style.

Design, build & colours

Oxva Nexlim – the “pod mod” feel

The standard Oxva Nexlim looks and feels like a compact pod mod. It’s a slim bar with a metal chassis and a 0.85″ colour screen on the front that shows wattage, battery, puff info and even animated themes, plus selectable Boost and Eco modes.

Because of the zinc alloy body and internal 1500mAh cell, it feels solid and premium without being heavy. It’s only around 122mm tall and under 30mm wide, so still pocket-friendly.

From Oxva’s own range, you’ll find patterned “chequered” options like Chequered Pink, Chequered Grey and Chequered Green, plus other finishes depending on the retailer. oxva.com It’s very much a “grown-up” device – more like a mini box mod than a throwaway pen.

Oxva Nexlim Go – streamlined, disposable-style

By contrast, the Nexlim Go leans into the clean, buttonless disposable vibe. It has a slightly shorter body at roughly 119mm high but a similar width/depth and weight to the Nexlim.

The big difference is the lack of a fire button and the much simpler interface – you inhale to vape and use a side toggle to flip between Eco and Boost modes. No fiddly menus, no accidental pocket-firing.

Design verdict:

Choose Nexlim if you like a proper screen and a more advanced-looking device.
Choose Nexlim Go if you want something that looks and behaves like a slick rechargeable disposable

Vape style: MTL vs RDL and airflow tuning

Both devices use the same Nexlim dual mesh pods (0.6, 0.8 and 1.2 Ohms) and both offer a side airflow slider so you can dial in anything from a tight mouth-to-lung (MTL) draw to a looser restricted direct lung (RDL) inhale.

0.6 Ohm pod – best for warm RDL, more vapour, higher wattage.
0.8 Ohm pod – balanced MTL/RDL, great all-rounder.
1.2 Ohm pod – tight MTL, cigarette-style draw, cooler vapour.

Where they differ is how you control the power.

Nexlim – manual wattage control

The Nexlim gives you proper variable wattage:

Adjust power between 5–40W using the buttons and screen.
Switch between Boost mode (more punch) and Eco (battery saver).

This is ideal if you know you like, for example, 0.8 Ohm at 18–20W with airflow half-open and want to lock that in every time. It also appeals more to experienced vapers who enjoy fine-tuning.

Nexlim Go – smart, set-and-forget power

The Nexlim Go keeps the same 5–40W range but hides most of the complexity:

It auto-sets the wattage based on the pod you plug in.
You simply choose Eco or Boost with the side switch to go cooler or warmer.

Typical Nexlim Go outputs across modes:

0.6 Ohm – 22W Eco / 40W Boost
0.8 Ohm – 16W Eco / 30W Boost
1.2 Ohm – 13W Eco / 22W Boost

So you still get a decent range of vape styles – you just don’t have to scroll wattage up and down. For ex-disposable users, that’s a big plus!

Vape style verdict:

Nexlim if you enjoy tinkering and want precise control.
Nexlim Go if you prefer “just works” auto power but still want MTL or RDL flexibility.

Battery life, charging & everyday use

Oxva Nexlim

The Nexlim has a 1500mAh battery, which is strong for such a compact pod kit. It can comfortably handle a full day of typical MTL use, especially in Eco mode, and supports fast USB-C charging at 5V/2A.

The colour screen does use a bit more power, but it also gives a clear percentage/battery bar so you’re less likely to get caught out at 0%.

Oxva Nexlim Go

The Nexlim Go steps things up to an 1800mAh battery, still with fast USB-C.

In Eco mode, Oxva claims you can stretch usage significantly – some marketing even mentions up to 10 days of light vaping on a single charge. Realistically, most UK vapers will see a solid day or more even on Boost mode with 0.8Ω pods.

Depending on the version, you either get a simple tri-colour LED (green/blue/red) or a smaller colour display that shows mode and battery at a glance, but it remains far less “techy” than the Nexlim.

Battery verdict:

Nexlim Go wins – that extra 300mAh and stripped-back UI make it a real workhorse for long days.
Nexlim still offers all-day performance for most MTL users, with better on-screen visibility.

Price & value

Current pricing at the time of writing is:

Both use the same Nexlim pods, which means once you’ve bought into the ecosystem, you can keep running costs low by buying pod packs and swapping between kits if you own both.

From a value-for-money standpoint:

The Nexlim Go is one of the most affordable 40W dual mesh pod systems in its class – especially considering the 1800mAh battery, Eco/Boost, adjustable airflow and 5-layer leak-resistant pods.

The Nexlim costs more but gives you a proper colour display, full wattage control and a more advanced pod-mod feel.

Compared with disposable vapes that you throw away after 2ml, both Nexlim kits will pay for themselves quickly when paired with 10ml nic salt bottles or multi-buy vape juice bundles.

Best vape juices to pair with Nexlim & Nexlim Go

Because both devices share the same pods and coil ranges, the rules for picking vape juice are broadly the same.

For MTL, cigarette-style draws (1.2 Ohm & 0.8 Ohm pods)

Go for 50/50 vape juice or nicotine salt vape juice in strengths between 10–20 mg, depending on how heavy a smoker you were.
Nic salts work beautifully here – they give a smooth throat hit, fast nicotine delivery and mimic the comfort of prefilled pods and disposables.
Classic tobacco, menthol and simple fruit blends are ideal for all-day use.

These pair especially well with Eco mode at lower wattages on both devices, making each pod and each bottle of vape juice last longer.

For warmer RDL vaping (0.6 Ohm & 0.8 Ohm pods in Boost)

If you enjoy a bit more vapour and a warmer vape:

Use 50/50 or 60/40 vape juice – you still want enough PG for wicking and flavour.
Stick with mid-range nicotine strengths like 5–10mg nic salts or 6–12mg freebase, depending on your tolerance.
Boost mode on the 0.6 Ohm pod is great for dessert, candy and sweet fruit flavours that open up with a bit more heat.

Because Nexlim pods are dual mesh and designed for flavour, both kits are forgiving and versatile – just avoid very thick high-VG (70/30+) shortfills at maximum wattage for long chain sessions, as they can overwork the wicks in such compact pods.

Which juices for which kit?

Oxva Nexlim – slight edge for vapers who like to tweak wattage to match specific flavours (e.g. running a sharp citrus nic salt a watt or two lower for smoothness).
Oxva Nexlim Go – perfect for vapers who just want: “Fill pod, click in, inhale” with popular 50/50 nic salts that mimic their favourite disposable flavours.

Which one should you buy?

Choose the Oxva Nexlim if:

You’re a ex-smoker or established vaper who likes tuning wattage and having a proper screen.
You want something that feels like a mini mod but still uses simple pods.
You care about seeing precise battery %, wattage and perhaps puff info on-screen.

Choose the Oxva Nexlim Go if:

You’re stepping up from disposable vapes and want a familiar, no-buttons experience.
You want the lowest cost of entry into the Nexlim ecosystem.
Battery life is a top priority and you prefer set-and-forget smart power.

Final thoughts

Both the Oxva Nexlim and Oxva Nexlim Go are excellent pod systems for UK vapers who want to cut costs and waste without losing flavour or satisfaction.

They share the same flavour-focused Nexlim Pods, 5–40W power range and MTL/RDL flexibility – but they’re tuned for slightly different users.

The Nexlim is the more advanced, tweakable option.

The Nexlim Go is the simpler, cheaper workhorse that nails the “rechargeable disposable” brief.

Whichever you pick, pairing it with the right 50/50 or nic salt vape juice will give you smoother hits, better battery life and far better value than buying disposables week after week.
