According to a recent survey by 2Firsts, a prominent trend of increasing intelligence is emerging in the e-cigarette market in the United States. Multiple new smart e-cigarette products have been introduced, and a new focus of market competition is taking shape.
Several e-cigarette sales platforms including ejuices, vaperanger, and vapesourcing have launched a series of smartphone e-cigarette products called "Smart Phone Vapes" or "Smart Phone Disposable Vapes", priced in the range of $13-20.



Since its inception, the e-cigarette has undergone multiple innovations from a simulated cigarette design to open and refillable products. The emergence of the "smartphone e-cigarette," which integrates smartphone functions, not only offers features such as Bluetooth connectivity and app control, but also adds entertainment functions like camera control, phone location tracking, social media notifications, fitness tracking, and built-in games. This provides consumers with more convenience and entertainment options.
In order to gain a deeper understanding of the development trends in this emerging product category, 2Firsts conducted a detailed inventory and analysis of "smartphone e-cigarettes" on American e-cigarette sales platforms, aiming to provide an objective market development perspective for both the industry and the wider public.

As of October 15th, at least 20-30 new e-cigarette products have been launched on American e-cigarette sales platforms in the "smartphone e-cigarette" category. These products inherit the mainstream trends of the American e-cigarette market in terms of design and share some common features:
- Smart features: These products integrate the functions of smartphones, such as Bluetooth connectivity, app control, app notifications, and also support features like camera control, GPS tracking, social media notifications, fitness tracking, and built-in games, increasing the entertainment and practicality of the products.

- Type-C charging port: Almost all products use Type-C ports, providing faster charging speeds and better compatibility.

What will be the next focal point of market competition?
The well-known e-cigarette brand YOOZ repositioned itself as the world's first intelligent e-cigarette company at the World Vape Show on June 12th this year, showcasing four of its SMART VAPE products. Following this move, an increasing number of e-cigarette brands are beginning to develop their own intelligent e-cigarette products.
Although the features of smart e-cigarette products continue to evolve, whether they can continue to dominate the market competition still requires further validation from the market and consumers.

Currently, the top-selling disposable products in the US market are still dominated by traditional large-mouthpiece products with regular screens, such as the Geek Bar Pulse series, SMOK, and Raz.
