BEST Dry Herb Vapes 2021

The original DaVinci IQ was released in 2016, and its small compact design, straightforward usage and innovative heating profiles easily won over users and made the IQ one of the best selling devices of that year. Since then, DaVinci has been steadily improving their products and released another smash-hit, the IQ2 which features DaVinci’s proprietary smart-paths which gradually increase the oven temperature during a session. Allowing users to get the most out of their material and delivering high-quality, flavor-filled vapor.

The IQC is the newest in this series of compact, well-performing devices. Thanks to improvements in material quality and tech. DaVinci has been able to keep the same design on the IQC but making it more functional, improving its ergonomics, applied materials – all while lowering the price by $70.

The IQC in a nutshell is a feature-trimmed version of its predecessor, not a complete overhaul. The signature zirconia pearl functions much better on the IQC, thanks to the improvements on the device’s lid hinges. Overall, the vapor quality and performance remain just as great even with several of the materials changed. It is also still compatible with the DaVinci Mobile App, so you can customize your smart-path settings to your liking.

The Crafty and Mighty have been available on the market since 2014 and have been the marker for premium vaping ever since. In late 2019, the Crafty was upgraded and renamed the Crafty +, it keeps the same form and functionality as its predecessor but has a few upgraded features and now performs almost at par with the Mighty.

Created and designed in Germany by famed brand; Storz and Bickel- it’s not a surprise at all that these two devices have impeccable credentials and are built with the finest in vaporizer tech. These two devices definitely have an extensive list of pros – such as a function forward durable design, precision temperature control, and above-average battery life. But the real strength of the Crafty+ | Mighty is in its perfectly consistent vapor quality. Regardless of your use, the hybrid conduction/convection oven delivers maximized THC extraction and flavorful vapor.

With these two devices being so similar in function, the only con I could think of was having to choose between either one.To make a more informed choice, I’d suggest looking through our Crafty+ vs. Mighty comparison. 

It’s said that “the perfect vaporizer doesn’t exist“ – but whoever said that has probably never come across these two. At $279 & $349 they are priced higher on the spectrum, but will last years without an issue. They also have very low maintenance requirements, an array of compatible accessories, and are made from ‘medical grade’

Pax 3 is the third in Pax’s line of simple, effective, and sleek vaporizers.  At first glance, the Pax 3 might remind you of an apple product- and it certainly feels that way – it’s a no-nonsense vaporizer that looks great and features lip sensing technology, haptic feedback, an LED interface, a proprietary charging dock, precise temperature controls on the accompanying app, and an insert for use with concentrates.

Definitely pocketable at 3.5 inches tall, 1 inch wide, and an inch deep and has very few moving parts and a single button, making it one of the best vaporizers to take with you daily. Its 3500 mAH battery lasts for about 7-9 sessions or 80-90 minutes and takes 2.5 hours to charge.

The Pax 3 heats to its 4 pre-set temperatures in about 30-40 seconds and produces smooth and satisfying vapor relative to its size – the first 1-3 hits are incredibly flavorful and satisfying but the vapor does dwindle in density, flavor, and gets quite warm after that. As for use with concentrates- the Pax is decent, but I’d recommend getting a separate concentrate vaporizer and having a main dry herb vape.

Pax represents the best size/performance ratio of any vape on this list. If portability and discreteness is a top priority, the Pax 3 is king. We are hoping to see a Pax 4 in the near future, and can’t wait to see which innovations Pax has been working on for the last few years.
