Top 10 Best Portable Vaporizers For Beginners
Contents
Portable Vaporizers Overview
One of the questions we are asked most frequently is ‘what are the best portable vaporizers for beginners’? Our answers do change from time to time, but usually, our response remains constant. Most newbie vape users tend to be looking for an affordable, user-friendly device that has a decent amount of features, a battery that they don’t have to constantly charge, and something that provides them with value. You might think it’s a bit of a task to meet all of these requirements, but we’ve narrowed it down to the top ten portable vaporizers that fit the criteria as of right now. These ten aren’t necessarily in any particular order, just ten that we think are the best at the time of this writing. There are pros and cons of each. If you’re new to the vaporization world and are looking for the best option, you’ve come to the right place.
1) Utillian 421
The Utilian 420’s battery lasts about an hour of continuous usage, which is an impressive time for a unit that is under $100. This model is simple to operate, with only one button and a digital display that anyone can understand. It also heats up in 20 seconds. As an added bonus, it looks like a cool little metal flask and is easily concealed for discreet toking. You really can’t beat the functionality, or the vapor quality, discreet nature and sleek design of the Utilian 421 – especially for such an affordable price. It remains one of the top portable vaporizers to this day. Read about it in our Utillian 421 Review.
2) Tronian Milatron
The Tronian Milatron is a great option for beginners because of its no-nonsense design that emphasizes consistent sessions in a portable kit. The kit is overall super easy to use including a five minute auto-off timer and funneled chamber which is easy to load. Because it’s also compatible with the XMAX dry herb dosing capsules and XMAX wax cup, you can also have some added dab functionality and portability. Read about it in our Tronian Milatron Review.
3) Pax Plus
The Pax Plus also lasts for an hour of continuous usage and costs around $200. It takes less than 2 hours to fully charge, which is a nice feature. The one button design is pretty simple to figure out, but the best part is that it’s virtually indestructable. Most users who are new to vaporization seem to find the unit meets and exceeds their expectations. Read about these features more in our Pax Plus Review.
4) DynaVap M Plus
The DynaVap M Plus is another high quality vape with a low price of under $100. As a battery-free dry herb vape, the DynaVap relies on either a butane torch or induction heater to get the cap to click and let you know that a temperature of above 350F has been reached. Despite the small 0.2g chamber size, this is a vape that packs a lot of punch and is great for quitting smoking since it feels very similar to having a joint in your hand. The stainless steel design will let you adjust the airflow by covering the air intake ports, and overall this is a great vape for those looking to make the transition to pure vaporizing.

5) Arizer ArGo
The Arizer ArGo offers some of the thickest clouds at this price point of under $150, plus, its battery can be replaced which is always a nice feature to have. Most users get at least an hour of continuous use out of their ArGo. Its OLED display is bright, simple to understand and a no-brainer to operate. Most of the unit is pretty durable, although the glass mouthpiece can break if you’re careless. You can also vape with the unit while it’s charging.

6) G Pen Elite 2
Although it’s a slight bump in price compared to the other vapes on this list, the G Pen Elite 2 is simple to use – just press and hold the power button, set the temperature, and then click the power button twice. The Elite 2 is one of the most user friendly vapes on the market today – and also features a super ergonomic design.

Well under $100, the G Pen Dash is another great choice for newbies. The G Pen Dash charges up in about two hours and lasts about 40 minutes until you need to recharge again. The Dash is another unit that is one of the most discreet and compact on the market today. The device heats up in 30 seconds after five button presses, and has three preset temperature options. Vaping at the highest temperature with your G Pen Pro might cause some harshness, but is hot enough to crank out some respectable clouds for the small price point.
