The Vaptio Cosmo G1 pod kit review and this is a stylish little set up offering both MTL and DTL coils.
This one has a unique feature and is the world’s first pop up pod – more on that in a moment.
Vaptio is one of the better of the established vape manufacturers known for its well designed kits – most if not all really do look pleasing to the eye.
We’ve reviewed a lot of Vaptio vape kits the most recent being the ear bud look-a-like AirGo – the Cosmo Plus – the badass IronClad Frogman C and the powerful N1 PRO 240W Kit Lite.
So a decent stable of vape devices and kits – let’s hope the Cosmo G1 lives up to those exacting standards.
What Can We Expect From the Vaptio Cosmo G1?
Obviously this is a pod kit however the coils can be swapped.
It’s a top fill with a 3ml capacity and you release the pod via the pop up button.
There’s a decent sized 1500mAH battery and it has a Type-C USB – so expect super-fast charging.
OK, this was sent to me direct from Vaptio – thank you – and as always my thoughts and opinions are not swayed by freebies.
So, let’s see if the Vaptio Cosmo G1 pod kit is an out of this world vape…

Key Features
It’s the ‘pop out pod‘ feature that sets this pod kit apart from the others.
You simply press the unlock button and out pops the pod – nice little touch.
The Vaptio Cosmo G1 is a top fill and there’s x4 compatible coils – 2 included in the box: Cosmo C3 at 1.2ohm and the Cosmo C4 at 0.7ohm mesh.
The C3 is best between 9 – 15w and used for MTL whilst the C4 is best between 10 – 20w and is for DTL.
Read more about MTL and DTL vaping styles.
The coils can also be used in the Cosmo tank – the Tyro and Tyro Nano kits.
The mod is powered by a 1500mAH battery with a power range of 5 to 35w.
Airflow comes from the slider above the pod pop out button – more on that later.
Design and Build Quality
I have to say the Vaptio Cosmo G1 is a beautiful pod kit to look at and hold.
The design is simple yet elegant and the ‘leather’ effect on the main body is attractive and extremely grippy.
The Vaptio logo is tastefully done as is the Cosmo G1 on the side.
The buttons are nicely clicky and the airflow slider is very smooth indeed.
The screen is small and basic however it is crystal clear.
Build wise it’s wonderfully put together and the pop out pod action is instant and works a treat.
As to how long that feature works times will tell.
The pods are 3ml and slightly tinted and there are x2 juice viewing windows which when held up to the light you can just about see your level.
The fill port is a silicon bung and not that easy to open when on the mod – I just pop it out and fill that way.
There’s only one pod in the box so if that bung snaps you’ll need to buy a new kit.
The Vaptio Cosmo G1 features a rather nice 510 drip tip that really feels good in the mouth.
The kit is currently available in red – black and blue.
How Does the Vaptio Cosmo G1 Perform?
For the taste test I used the Supergood Cosmopolitan 70/30 VG PG for the DTL coil and the same flavour but in nic salt for the MTL coil.
A cosmo’ for the Cosmo you might say lol.
Vaptio Cosmo G1 C3 1.2ohm Coil MTL
I primed the coil and left it for a good 10 minutes to let the juice saturate the cotton.
At 9w not a lot was happening flavour wise – however bumped up to the max of 15w and things improved significantly.
A really good crisp flavour with a surprising amount of clouds for such a small coil.
Closing the airflow almost shut and as you might expect this was a tight vape – almost the perfect MTL draw.
Wide open and it is very airy and I found a happy medium half open.
This coil is, IMHO, very good indeed and ideal for a brand new vaper straight off the lit cigs or those of use who enjoy a genuine MTL vape.
Vaptio Cosmo G1 C4 0.7ohm Coil DTL
Again at the low wattage of 10w the vape was OK but nothing special.
And yup – bumped up to 20w and again the coil sparked into life.
Really good flavour off this one even with the airflow wide open.
Plenty of clouds and a really nice tickle at the back of the tonsils even with the higher VG.
I found the sweet spot with the airflow half open giving me a really nice loose draw.
Pros
- Great design
- Well built
- Easy pod change
- Choice of coils
Cons
- Filling a little fiddly
- Coil holder a little fiddly
Final Review Verdict
Just a couple of niggles.
Firstly the filling is a little tricky and the hole is rather small.
I found it much easier to fill while the pod was off the mod and I’m not sure how long the stopper will last.
Having to screw the coil into the holder is also a bit of a pain, it’s not such a big deal really but for some reason it felt like a step to far.
Other than that, the Vaptio Cosmo G1 pod kit is impressive.
From the design and styling to the build quality – it really is top notch.
Both coils do their job very well indeed, and that airflow slider really does allow you to totally tailor your vape.
It’s the perfect kit for a new vaper as they can begin with the MTL and eventually try the DTL as they progress on their vaping journey.
So yes – I highly recommend the Vaptio Cosmo G1 – impressive is the word!
