It is worth noting that e-cigarette brand HQD has launched a new open system - APEX on its official website, featuring a 1.47 inch HD touchscreen and supporting 5-45W wide range power output. At present, it has not yet been listed on e-cigarette distributor websites.
Equipped with a 1,000mAh battery for wide-range power output of 5-45W
2Firsts collected the parameter information of HQD APEX, as shown in the table below:
Prior to this, the e-cigarette brand VAPORESSO had also released an open system named "APEX" - the Vaporesso Apex Pod Kit. It is reported that a tactical competitive game called "Apex Legends" launched in 2019 also uses this name.
From a product specification point of view, the HQD APEX is equipped with a 1,000mAh battery, which is lower compared to similar products such as the VOZOL ACE PRO (1400mAh) and Vaporesso Apex Pod Kit (2000mAh).
In addition, the HQD APEX is equipped with three different resistance replaceable pods of 0.4Ω, 0.8Ω, and 1.2Ω, corresponding to an output power range of 5W to 45W. Compared to several other brands such as VOZOL, Geekvape, FRESOR, the HQD APEX has a wider power output range, supporting the switch from MTL (mouth-to-lung) to DTL (direct-to-lung) modes.
It is worth noting that, while the HQD APEX product page displays three different resistance values of replaceable pods (0.4Ω, 0.8Ω, 1.2Ω), the official website states that the product is currently available in 0.8Ω and 1.2Ω variants. However, HQD APEX plans to release a version compatible with 0.4Ω pods in the future.
Equipped with a 1.47-inch HD touchscreen
Like many other multi-brand cartridge-style, open-system products that have been introduced before, the HQD APEX is equipped with a 1.47-inch HD touchscreen that can display real-time information such as battery life, power output, and operational status, and supports animated feedback. The product also features airflow adjustment on the side, and includes a side button that provides access to all functions.
Previously, the VOZOL brand launched a pod system e-cigarette product called the VOZOL Ace Max, which also features a 1.47-inch touchscreen display showing data such as power, puff count, and battery level.
Online sales have not been conducted yet
Currently, HQD APEX has been launched on the HQD brand official website and is being promoted simultaneously on the brand's Facebook and Instagram official accounts. The HQD brand has now released a variety of open-system products including HQD ZEST, HQD CIRAK, and HQD EOS 2.0.
HQD APEX is currently not available for sale on overseas e-cigarette distributor websites; a search on the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) e-cigarette product announcement database did not yield any information on HQD APEX, suggesting the product may not be targeted towards the UK market.
