At Vapexpo France 2025, OXVA CEO Justin Lai confirmed the company’s collaboration with Evolv, the U.S.-based leader in vaporization chipset technology, during an exclusive interview with Oneshot Media.
"We worked with Evolv for over six months to get this perfect," Justin stated. The announcement formalizes a partnership between the industry's fastest-growing vaping brand and the semiconductor pioneer responsible for many of the sector's most advanced technological breakthroughs.
The first tangible result of this collaboration, the OXVA XLIM PRO 2 DNA, recently received recognition in the 2025 Muse Design Awards. It’s a powerful signal that something revolutionary is coming.
When Innovation Meets Precision
OXVA, founded in 2019, has rapidly ascended to become a dominant force in the refillable pod market, and now ranks among the top 3 globally. Its XLIM series, praised for balancing portability with high performance, has earned a cult following among vaping enthusiasts.
Evolv, on the other hand, has long been the gold standard for high-end vaping technology. Since its founding in 2008, its DNA chipsets have powered some of the most advanced mod devices on the market, known for their temperature control accuracy, customizable power curves, and “Replay Mode”—a feature that memorizes and replicates a user’s perfect puff.
Until now, Evolv’s technology has been reserved for larger, more expensive mod-style devices. What happens when Evolv’s precision meets OXVA’s innovation? OXVA is introducing an unprecedented pod that performs like a mod. Think of it as a supercar engine installed in a city-friendly chassis—power and precision, without compromise.
What to expect: Three potential breakthroughs
While specifics are still under wraps, the XLIM PRO 2 DNA represents a significant evolution of OXVA's acclaimed XLIM PRO 2 - named "Best Pod of 2024" by several major media outlets for its exceptional taste and long-lasting battery life.
Based on Evolv’s existing technology and OXVA’s design priorities, here's what the XLIM PRO 2 DNA might deliver:
1. The end of dry hits?
One of the most common frustrations for vapers—dry or burnt hits—could finally see a solution. Evolv’s DNA chipsets are renowned for their temperature control, which prevents overheating when e-liquid runs low. Given that up to 60% of user complaints in pod systems relate to this issue, a reliable fix would be transformative.
2. MOD-Level customization in a pod
Currently, pod systems offer limited adjustability compared to bulkier mods. But if Evolv’s full suite of customization tools—adjustable power curves, interface tweaks, and personalized preheat settings—is integrated into the XLIM PRO 2 DNA, it could bring a DIY ethos to the pod market for the first time.
3. Perfect consistency with replay mode
Evolv’s Replay Mode isn’t just about consistency—it’s about perfection. Imagine your best puff, every puff. If implemented, the chip learns the exact power and temperature curve of your ideal hit, then replicates it automatically. No more fiddling with settings—just flawless flavor, every time.
What will it cost to change the game?
The prices of some MOD products that have been launched previously usually exceed $150. The OXVA DNA product is the first POD product equipped with a DNA chip. Integrating such a powerful chip into a POD makes users very curious about its final price. OXVA invites you to guess its price. Will it also exceed $100?
What kind of innovative experience that breaks through industry norms will OXVA bring to users? And at what price will this product be launched? Will it be able to solve the problems that have been plaguing POD users for years and make history?
