There are moments in a vaper’s journey where you don’t ask "Should I?" but instead mutter, "Oh why the hell not?" That’s how I ended up with the Aokit S10 Smart Watch Vape, a device so absurd it loops right back around to fascinating.
I didn’t expect much from a smartwatch-vape combo in the R350–R450 range — the kind of money that buys you either a disposable vape or a no-name fitness tracker off TEMU. But unlike those budget smartwatches, this one vapes. That’s its party trick. That’s the only reason it exists. And sure enough, the moment I strapped it on, people noticed. I tried to keep it subtle. Didn’t matter. Every second person asked me why I was wearing a literal brick on my wrist, and when I showed them that it also vapes, the disbelief on their faces said it all. It’s a conversation starter, whether you want one or not.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
The box is about as generic as they come — plain, no branding beyond the name “Aokit S10.” Inside you get:
No charging cable. No spare pod. No screen protector. Just the bare essentials. The watch felt bulky right out of the box — tall, chunky, and heavier than it looks. It makes an impression, but it’s not a flattering one.
And about one hour later, it made a second impression… right into the floor, when the faceplate popped off mid-wear. More on that in a moment.
Included in the box is a weird little white plug. This is your flashlight. It plugs into the same port the pod goes into, which means you cannot vape and use the flashlight at the same time. Choose your function: visibility or nicotine.
And while it does technically work, it’s barely brighter than your phone screen on low. You’d get better results from a cheap keyring torch. And worse, you’ll need to carry it separately — it doesn’t clip in anywhere on the watch when not in use. A neat gimmick, but one you'll use once, then toss in a drawer.
Less than an hour into wearing it, one of the magnets holding the watch face in place fell out. I wasn’t rough with it — just normal movement. Fortunately, it was an easy fix with superglue, but let’s be honest: you shouldn’t have to repair a watch within 60 minutes of unboxing it.
That’s the theme here. The magnets are decent strength, but quality control is missing. With proper glue, it would have held fine. But like many things in this device, it’s just under-built.
Out of the box, the included pod is lifeless. It had the draw of a brick and the flavour of warm plastic. I almost wrote the whole device off… until I swapped it out for a 0.4Ω OXVA pod.
Game-changer. Well, relatively.
At 25W (which it claims to support, but feels more like 16–18W), the OXVA pod produced reasonable vapour and noticeable flavour, especially with Old Goat Misty Mountain Pie (50/50 VG/PG, 15mg nic salts). It's still nowhere near what I got from a Vaporesso Cube running a similar pod — same specs, same juice, far better flavour.
The pod sits very securely in the watch’s slot. It never felt loose, never leaked, and didn’t rattle. But it does spit a little, and flavour is muted by the limited airflow.
Instead of a proper airflow ring, you get a small square slider just above the pod. It’s awkward to adjust and barely functional. It offers two states: “barely open” or “completely closed.” No in-between. Even worse, the slider tends to close itself with normal use.
And for a 0.4Ω pod at this wattage, that tiny airflow just doesn’t cut it.
Every vape triggers a light show and arcade sound effect, like you’re trying to summon Sonic the Hedgehog. It’s distracting and unnecessary.
The workaround? Switch the watch off. Weirdly, you can still vape with the screen off and the OS down — no lights, no sounds. But then you also lose Bluetooth, time display, and notifications. And the next time you switch it back on, it won’t auto-reconnect to Bluetooth, meaning more fumbling.
They really need to add a setting to disable vape effects while keeping the watch on.
If you use this strictly as a watch, you’ll squeeze out 2–3 days.
If you actually plan to use it as a vape, expect to charge it daily — or more.
And remember: they don’t include a charging cable. Bring your own or borrow one. For a vape-watch hybrid, it’s laughable.
One major improvement: move the pod slot to the underside, where the charging port is now. That would make the vape easier to access and more discreet to use.
Let’s be clear: this is a novelty device, not a daily driver. If you’re considering buying one:
No, I won’t be wearing this again.
But I’m keeping it, not out of love, but because it’s a reminder that the vaping industry is still learning to walk. This thing is a baby step, and like many baby steps, it fell flat on its face. But we learn. We iterate. And someday, maybe someone will get it right.
Until then, this one’s going in the drawer — right next to my patience and my dignity.There are moments in a vaper’s journey where you don’t ask "Should I?" but instead mutter, "Oh why the hell not?"

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
Unboxing & First Impressions
The box is about as generic as they come — plain, no branding beyond the name “Aokit S10.” Inside you get:
- The watch itself (already assembled)
- A pod (useless)
- A white flashlight plug accessory
- A user manual that looks like it was printed with the last few drops of toner
- And… that’s it.
No charging cable. No spare pod. No screen protector. Just the bare essentials. The watch felt bulky right out of the box — tall, chunky, and heavier than it looks. It makes an impression, but it’s not a flattering one.
And about one hour later, it made a second impression… right into the floor, when the faceplate popped off mid-wear. More on that in a moment.
The Flashlight: A Glimmer of Utility
Included in the box is a weird little white plug. This is your flashlight. It plugs into the same port the pod goes into, which means you cannot vape and use the flashlight at the same time. Choose your function: visibility or nicotine.
And while it does technically work, it’s barely brighter than your phone screen on low. You’d get better results from a cheap keyring torch. And worse, you’ll need to carry it separately — it doesn’t clip in anywhere on the watch when not in use. A neat gimmick, but one you'll use once, then toss in a drawer.
The Magnet That Gave Up
Less than an hour into wearing it, one of the magnets holding the watch face in place fell out. I wasn’t rough with it — just normal movement. Fortunately, it was an easy fix with superglue, but let’s be honest: you shouldn’t have to repair a watch within 60 minutes of unboxing it.
That’s the theme here. The magnets are decent strength, but quality control is missing. With proper glue, it would have held fine. But like many things in this device, it’s just under-built.
The Vape Side of Things
Out of the box, the included pod is lifeless. It had the draw of a brick and the flavour of warm plastic. I almost wrote the whole device off… until I swapped it out for a 0.4Ω OXVA pod.
Game-changer. Well, relatively.
At 25W (which it claims to support, but feels more like 16–18W), the OXVA pod produced reasonable vapour and noticeable flavour, especially with Old Goat Misty Mountain Pie (50/50 VG/PG, 15mg nic salts). It's still nowhere near what I got from a Vaporesso Cube running a similar pod — same specs, same juice, far better flavour.

Airflow: A Design Miss
Instead of a proper airflow ring, you get a small square slider just above the pod. It’s awkward to adjust and barely functional. It offers two states: “barely open” or “completely closed.” No in-between. Even worse, the slider tends to close itself with normal use.
And for a 0.4Ω pod at this wattage, that tiny airflow just doesn’t cut it.
The Fire Show: Lights, Sound, and Cringe
Every vape triggers a light show and arcade sound effect, like you’re trying to summon Sonic the Hedgehog. It’s distracting and unnecessary.
The workaround? Switch the watch off. Weirdly, you can still vape with the screen off and the OS down — no lights, no sounds. But then you also lose Bluetooth, time display, and notifications. And the next time you switch it back on, it won’t auto-reconnect to Bluetooth, meaning more fumbling.

Smartwatch Functions: Barely There
- Calendar works, but it doesn’t sync. Still, it shows the day and date — so at least you know what planet you’re on.
- You can make and receive calls. My voice came through clearly, but I could barely hear the caller — the speaker is trash, even at full volume.
- No contact syncing. You won’t see who’s calling. Just a number and confusion.
- SMS messages show up, which is nice in theory. But nobody uses SMS anymore.
- No WhatsApp, no push notifications, no app alerts.
- And no step counter, which is a shame. A simple pedometer would’ve gone a long way.
Battery Life
If you use this strictly as a watch, you’ll squeeze out 2–3 days.
- Day 1: I wore it all day with no vaping (useless pod). Battery dropped to ~70%.
- Day 2: Swapped in a working pod and vaped half a tank. Battery hit 20% by lunchtime.
If you actually plan to use it as a vape, expect to charge it daily — or more.
And remember: they don’t include a charging cable. Bring your own or borrow one. For a vape-watch hybrid, it’s laughable.
In the Real World: It’s Awkward
- Driving with it on? The pod digs into your hand every time you touch the steering wheel.
- Vaping on the go? You either have to take the watch off, or angle your wrist like you're licking a doorknob.
- Trying to shake your juice bottle with your dominant hand? Bad idea. The watch will fly off your wrist like a drunken boomerang. Ask me how I know.
One major improvement: move the pod slot to the underside, where the charging port is now. That would make the vape easier to access and more discreet to use.
Warning for the Curious Buyer
Let’s be clear: this is a novelty device, not a daily driver. If you’re considering buying one:
- Do not expect a good vape experience out of the box. You’ll need a compatible pod and a forgiving palate.
- Be prepared to fix things — like re-gluing magnets.
- You won’t get proper smartwatch features. No health tracking. No app notifications. No real sync.
- The battery won’t last if you vape on it regularly.
- There’s no cable, no spares, no frills.
- It’s bulky and awkward, and borderline uncomfortable for long-term wear.
- And everyone will ask you about it, because yes, it looks ridiculous.
