Today, I’m excited to share my review of the Mr. Fog Switch 5500, the newest SWITCH disposable vape from the popular Mr. Fog brand. After trying their Mr. Fog Max Air MA8500 last week (Click Here to read the review), I wanted to see how this new Switch series compares to the Max Air series. I’ve heard many great things about it, like the mesh coil inside, which is supposed to make the flavor and vapor even better. And now, I’m here to check it out myself and see if it’s as good as everyone says.
Is Mr. Fog’s SWITCH 5500 Worth $12.95?
Shop Mr. Fog Max Air MA8500Longevity : ★★★☆☆ | I think 5500 puffs are a lot, which is excellent. But, if you vape a lot, you might find it doesn’t last as long as you’d hope.
Flavor Test: ★★★★☆ | The flavors are fantastic! But picking just one from the 27 flavors can be challenging.
Airflow : ★★★☆☆ | It’s cool you can adjust the airflow. But it’s pretty basic. The dial moves too quickly, especially when pulling it out of my pocket.
Build Quality: ★★★☆☆ | It’s strong for a disposable, which is good. But, it can scratch easily, which is a downside.
Battery Life: ★★★★☆ | The battery lasted for me all day. Just remember, it needs recharging after. Plus, the Type-C port is super handy.
Design : ★★★★☆ | I love the design. But, if you want something sleeker or with a screen, this design is not for you.
Unboxing: Mr. Fog’s SWITCH 5500
When I first got my hands on the Switch 5500, the packaging was the first thing that caught my attention. It clearly shows everything you need to know – from nicotine level to liquid volume, and even includes a picture of the vape. Each flavor is marked with its own color on the box, and there’s also a QR code to confirm its authenticity; the only missing detail is the PG/VG ratio; it’s not a big issue, but including it would be beneficial, especially for those sensitive to PG.
Specs and First Impression of Mr. Fog’s SWITCH 5500
650mAh Rechargeable Battery | Type-C Charging Port } 5% (50mg) Nicotine Strength | 15mL Pre-Filled Synthetic E-Liquid | Approximately 5500 Puffs | Draw-Activated Firing Mechanism | Food-grade TPU Mouthpiece | Mesh Coil Heating Element
I’m impressed after using the Mr. Fog SWITCH 5500 for a week. It fits perfectly in my hand, which makes it super convenient to carry. Its white plastic design with a color side for the flavors catches the eye. I like its unique style, although it may only be for some.
Battery Life in Mr. Fog’s SWITCH 5500
Moving from design to performance, the Switch 5500 impresses with its battery life. Usually, I don’t charge it all the way; just plugging it into my laptop for 15-20 minutes does the trick, and it lasts me all day. If you vape a lot, a full charge in the morning means you’re good for the whole day, no matter how much you use it.
CHARGING TIPS: I never use those fast phone chargers for my Mr. Fog vape. I stick to my laptop’s USB port to charge it. It seems to be better for the battery.
The best part? Unlike other vapes I’ve tried, the SWITCH 5500 doesn’t just suddenly lose battery when I’m not using it. Big shoutout to Mr. Fog for making such a trusty vape. It’s really made a difference for me.
Testing the Durability of Mr. Fog’s SWITCH 5500
The SWITCH 5500 is really sturdy and strong. I’ve dropped my Banana Raspberry Ice flavor Mr. Fog disposable more than ten times on purpose, and it was totally fine. It had no problems working afterward; it just got some scratches. The plastic picks up marks and scratches, but this is mainly about looks and doesn’t change how well it vapes. Even after all those drops, the airflow control stayed in place, and it vaped just as well as before. The only minor things were some dust got into the mouthpiece and the charging port on the side. But overall, it’s a tough device that can deal with the usual wear and tear from daily vaping.
Mr. Fog Switch Flavor Review
At Blackout Vapors, you can find 27 flavors for Mr. Fog Switch. I’m going to share my thoughts on ten flavors because they’re common fruit flavors.
But what I like or don’t like might be different for you. Everyone’s taste is different, so this is just my personal take.
Banana Raspberry Ice: I really like this one. When I vape it, I get this yummy mix of banana and raspberry flavors that blend so well together, and there’s this cool, icy feeling that makes it extra refreshing. It’s sweet, but in a perfect way, not too overpowering.
Blue Raspberry Cherry Ice: This is definitely one of my favorites. The mix of blue raspberry and cherry tastes fantastic, with just the right sweetness and a bit of tartness. Plus, the icy feeling makes it super refreshing. It’s like the perfect balance of sweet and cool.
Bubble Gang Watermelon Ice: This one’s just okay for me. It’s a watermelon flavor with a bit of coolness from the ice. While refreshing, it only stands out slightly from other watermelon flavors I’ve tried. It’s nice, but it doesn’t wow me.
Cherry Hype: I’m really into this cherry flavor. It’s strong and sweet, like eating a cherry candy, but it doesn’t go overboard with the sweetness. I like that this one has no icy feeling, so the cherry flavor gets all the spotlight.
Green Apple Raspberry Watermelon Ice: Here’s where it gets tricky. You’ve got tart green apple, sweet raspberry, and fresh watermelon all mixed together, which sounds great, but when you vape it, it’s hard to pick out each flavor because they blend so much. The cool ice makes it refreshing, but the flavors lose their individuality.
Kiwi Watermelon Acai Ice: This flavor is interesting. The kiwi and watermelon give it a fresh, sweet vibe, and there’s this unique twist from the acai. The icy coolness is just right, making the whole experience really refreshing. It’s a bit of a mystery flavor but in a good way.
Lemon Strawberry Kiwi Watermelon Ice: This one’s okay but doesn’t blow me away. The lemon adds a nice zesty kick but sometimes overshadows the strawberry and kiwi. The watermelon and ice help make it more refreshing, but I wish the flavors balanced out better.
Pineapple Blueberry Kiwi Ice: I’m a big fan of this one. The pineapple brings a tropical sweetness, the blueberry hints tartness, and the kiwi blends in nicely. The ice effect makes it even more refreshing. It’s like a tropical drink on a hot day.
Strawberry Watermelon Kiwi Ice: This flavor is really delicious. The sweet strawberry and juicy watermelon mix, with a bit of tang from the kiwi, is just right. The icy touch makes it super refreshing and not too sweet, which I love.
Watermelon Strawberry Apple Menthol Ice: This one’s in the middle for me. The blend of watermelon, strawberry, and apple starts off nice and fruity, but then the menthol ice kicks in and takes over, making it more about the coolness than the fruit flavors. It’s refreshing, but I wish the fruits stood out more.
