The Voopoo Argus G2 is an update to the Argus G which I absolutely loved!
The Argus pod kit range includes some beauties such as the Argus Pro 2, Argus P1S, Argus Pod SE and Argus Z – just to name a few!
Thank you to Voopoo for sending this over for review and keep an eye out for the Argus P2 kit review which is coming soon!
This review is my opinion on the device supplied to me. Sometimes they may be samples / prototypes and not representative of retail versions. I will report back on my findings of the device in my possession.
What To Expect From The Voopoo Argus G2…
As mentioned above this is the second generation of the Argus G series.
Inside the device is a 1000mAh battery which is charged via the USB Type C port at a fast 2A charge rate.
It appears to have Variable Wattage, meaning you can adjust the output from 5-30W to suit the pod installed.
You can also choose from 3 modes: Super Mode, Smart Mode and Eco Mode. We will discuss the modes further in the review.
There is an airflow adjustment slider located on the side of the mod.
RGB indicator lights, a vibration motor and the 0.96 inch colour screen will keep you up to date with device status.
This kit includes the new “Top Fill” Argus pods, which means you do not have to remove the pod to fill.
There are 2 fixed coil top fill pods available – 0.4ohm and 0.7ohm – you get both in the kit.
This is also compatible with the previous fixed coil Argus Pod Cartridges plus the empty pods which use the ITO replaceable coils!
In standard format the capacity is 3ml, but in TPD regulated areas this is reduced to 2ml.
You can choose from 8 colours: Pearl White, Glow Pink, Spray Black, Astral Silver, Space Grey, Aurora Purple, Iris Blue and Peachy Beige.

Design and Build Quality
I received the Aurora Purple version which in my humble opinion looks to be the prettiest variant in the range! It is the 2ml capacity TPD compliant version.
The box is quite small but is very well laid out. Remove the card over-sleeve and you will be greeted by a cardboard box which holds all the accessories.
Remove this box and the device is sat in a moulded plastic tray. It arrived in immaculate condition so the packaging is doing its job!
Included in the kit is a great quality Lanyard which is super easy to install.
Also a flat style USB Type C cable is provided and it is of good quality.
You will see a verification sticker on the side of the box to check this is a genuine product. Either scan the QR code with your phone camera or input the code into the Voopoo Security Code Page.
The instructions are quite small but you can also view a digital copy of the instructions here.
Voopoo Argus G2 Mod
This is the prettiest pod kit I think I have seen in a very long time – it is beautiful! I may be biased as I love pretty colours on kits!
I still own my very pretty Argus G kit – so just as a comparison here they are together!
The front and sides have a shiny metallic finish and the rear has a holographic finish!
At the top of the mod it is a very pretty Cyan colour which then transforms into a stunning Magenta colour!
Half of the front is home to the screen panel which is shiny Black plastic with the “Gene AI” logo in Silver. You won’t see the screen until it lights up.
Below the screen area the finish returns to the shiny Magenta and the ARGUS logo is embossed in with a shiny Silver finish.
At the bottom of the rear is the Voopoo logo in Silver.
On the one side is the airflow adjustment slider which is quite tight to move, but this is good as it means it is unlikely to adjust itself in use.
The opposite side houses the clicky fire button and USB Type C port.
On the base is a rubber pad so this doesn’t scratch the device or surface when stood upright.
Inside the pod compartment you will find 2 spring loaded contacts and the magnets to secure the pod. The magnets are really strong meaning there is zero wobble to the pod when installed. Despite the strong magnets it is still easy to remove the pod.
I absolutely adore the look of this device and everything screams quality! But the whole thing is a fingerprint magnet – which sadly you can see in some of my photos – sorry!
Screen
The screen and RGB lights colour theme changes according to which mode is selected.
The screen is bright, clear and well laid out. Unfortunately in Super Mode the colours and layout mean it is difficult to see the battery charge remaining. I have marked it in the image below with the Red arrow, but that is zoomed in quite a lot.
At the side of the screen are the RGB indicator lights which you can turn on or off. These change colours and have animated gradients.
When vaping in Smart mode an animated flame graphic appears – I have videoed it below…
The Argus G2 is nice vape but I don’t know I can that about the pod the 0.4 as I have found when filling it up you can’t get the two mi of liquid in it because it comes out of the coil so I can only hope it can be fixed
