First impressions are always important. And DaVinci have certainly succeeded with their new vaporizer – the IQ2. We weren’t expecting a large package as the IQ2 is a handheld vaporizer, but the new model by DaVinci was delivered to us in a lovely shoebox sized case coated in a lovely black snakeskin style. Inside the box are neat compartments that hold the vape box, the stash jar, a grinder, and a USB stick too. Once you open the vape box, this is also very nicely packaged, opening like a picture box with a cute little drawer that holds all the instructions. This collection of items guarantees that you will always be ready for the next sesh.

The IQ2 was developed with the intention of providing you with cool, clean control. The new Air Dial feature sits on the bottom of the vape, simply adjust the air flow dial and you will be able to enjoy a nice cool draw. Many handheld vapes suffer from a hot and harsh draw. The draw from the IQ2 is so cool and smooth that it is much more like using a tabletop device. To be able to get this on the go with the IQ2 is a huge bonus. Another draw back with other handheld vapes is not only the draw, but the taste you can get with it too. Many are made from cheap plastic and metal fittings that taint the flavour of your dry herb or oils. DaVinci have engineered the IQ2 in such a way that it is made to a medical grade standard. The glass-lined oven ensures that all connoisseurs will be able to taste the full-flavour profiles of their herb without any compromise. The most important aspect of the IQ2 is the control. During the development of the IQ2, the Apple Store removed all vaping apps which potentially dealt a huge blow to many companies. Not to DaVinci though! Apple can be indirectly thanked for the ingenuity behind the new on device dosage control. Because the dosage app was removed, the team behind the IQ2 created the first vaporizer with on-device dosage. As the IQ2 is the first Fill Your Own – Know Your Dose portable vaporizer, you can input strain potency and the amount in the vape, the IQ2 tracks your session and can even notify you if you reach your chosen maximum dosage. Though the app is no longer available on Apple Store, you can still use the app on the Google Play Store and sync this up with your app to track the progress of your sessions.

Alongside all the new and exciting features, the DaVinci IQ2 still maintains the fundamentals. The sleek and discreet black design looks great and fits easily in the palm of your hand as well as your pocket when you’re on the go. The five air flow levels provide a variety of options, whilst the LED display on the vape that changes the temperature is very self-explanatory and easy to use. The IQ2 is quick and efficient, your herb or extracts will be heated within a minute of turning on the vape, and you will be able to get an hour’s usage before you must recharge. The only downside is once you need to recharge, it takes 6 hours to fully refill the battery.

The IQ2 by DaVinci is a very impressive device. It is certainly a high-grade vaporizer and certainly targeted at the more experienced toker. If you are a more frequent user of herbs and oils, then this might be a suitable vape for you, as it has a particular focus on dosage and the maximum dose notification could be of use if you wish to maintain moderation in your sessions. The IQ2 is a very wise choice for portable vaporizers.
