Although Uwell released its latest pod system Uwell Caliburn GK3 a while ago, I am still excited to unpack my GK3 and share my experience and feelings about it with you.
Introduction
Uwell is a popular brand in the vaping industry that is known for producing high-quality vape devices and e-juice. Uwell is known for its innovative design, top-notch quality, and outstanding performance. And GK3 is one of the best Uwell products. It comes with 2.5ml vape juice capacity, a powerful 900mAh rechargeable battery and a maximum output of 25W.
Design and Build Quality
Uwell Caliburn GK3 is a testament to Uwell's commitment to excellence in design. Crafted with precision, the device boasts a sleek and ergonomic design that fits comfortably in your hand. GK3 is made of PC, PCTG and ABS, making it durable as well as lightweight. Holding it or bagging it is just as easy as pie. The attention to detail is evident in every curve, ensuring not just functionality but also an aesthetic appeal that sets it apart. The visible e-juice window enables me to see the juice level clearly and easily. Keep an eye on it and you can hardly get your coil burnt.
Ease of Use
GK3 is equipped with a display screen that is half the size of the front panel, which means that you can adjust the output power and check all the data you need easily. There is only one side button for operation. There is no need to remember dozens of buttons or complicated operation. I only need to press the button different times for different functions.
Tips:
Press Once: Turn off the backlight when the device is on/charging
Press 3 Times: Adjust the output power
Press 4 Times: Reset the puff record
Press 5 Times: Turn on/off the kit
This screen reminds me of my first Casio Watch. The numbers and the way they look send me back to the good old days. Although GK3 is full of futuristic elements and fancy design, the display screen is still retro for me. Last but not least, I never expect a screen to last long with one full charge as the power used by a screen is in proportion to the fanciness of the screen. This is really a shock that the segmented digital LCD screen can last for two year! That’s a big move to save more energy for vaping rather than showing.
Performance
Under the hood, the Uwell Caliburn GK3 is equipped with cutting-edge technology to deliver a powerful and satisfying vaping experience. With a maximum output of 25W, this pod system ensures robust performance, allowing users to tailor their vaping preferences with precision. One of the standout features of it is the pod cartridge, designed for user convenience and versatility. The pods are easily refillable, minimizing downtime between sessions. The 2.5ml e-liquid capacity ensures an extended vaping experience, while the side-fill design simplifies the refilling process, preventing mess and hassle.
Unique Airflow System
Uwell Caliburn GK3 adopts a dual airflow system and it’s quite easy to switch between different airflow settings. You only need to insert the pod in different directions. Big airflow or small airflow, loose or tight draw, you will find it out yourself.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
Portability: Easy to carry around and super lightweight
Easy Operation: One-button design, press different times for different modes
Informative Interface: Retro energy-saving LCD screen of all the data you need
Cons:
Relatively smaller vape juice capacity
Limited options for color
Recommended E-juice
Uwell Caliburn GK3 is compatible with Uwell G3 Pod Cartridges. As a result, you can enjoy freebase juice and juice with nicotine salt. It is common that pod systems come with relatively low power output and that means e-juice with fresh tastes such as fruit-flavor and mint-flavor e-juice is more suitable. Here is my personal collection of e-juice:
Pod Juice PJ5000 Series Jewel Malibu Mint
Pod Juice PJ5000 Series Jewel Malibu Mint E-juice is one of the best nicotine salt vape juice on the market. Jewel Malibu Mint vape juice is bottled with 30ml e-juice of two different nicotine levels. The sweet and juicy essence of oranges blends smoothly with fresh mint, bringing out the succulent orange taste and coolness of mint. Heavy vapers tend to choose the 55mg version for strong throat hits. And the 35mg version is good for casual puffs of smooth hits. Each puff will be satisfactory and hints of Malibu.
Ruthless Vapor Grape Drank E-juice 120ml
Ruthless Vapor Grape Drank E-juice comes with a bottle of 120ml vape juice of three available nicotine strengths, including 0mg, 3mg and 6mg. Ruthless Vapor Grape Drank E-juice delivers sweet and fresh grape soda tastes Ruthless Vapor produces intriguing and delicious vape juice and Grape Drank is not an exception. Whether you are a fan of grape soda or grape juice, it will not fail you.
Conclusion
Uwell Caliburn GK3 is another typical Uwell product, practical and powerful. Despite all the futuristic elements, it is retro for me and all the fancy characteristics cannot overshadow the functions.
