The enormous popularity of the best disposable vapes remained unchallenged in 2022, with a veritable cavalcade of great new devices arriving at Vapestore month after month, aimed at vapers who enjoy the unrivalled ease of all-in-one, disposable vapes as well as curious smokers who might be reluctant to dive head-first into the world of vape tanks, mods and coils.
For many vapers, the lure of disposable vapes has proven irresistible in 2022. According to ASH (Action on Smoking and Health), almost half of 18-24 year olds, who make up nearly half of the UK’s 4.3 million e-cigarette users, now use disposable vapes. That’s a seismic leap in disposable vape use among young adults alone, from 2.8% in 2021 to 48% in 2022.
Given the sheer quality of the flavours now found in disposable vapes, and the steady drip-drip of ever more enjoyable new devices to use, it’s no surprise that just about every big vaping brand, from Smok to Aspire to Voopoo and Vampire Vape, has gotten in on the disposables over the last couple of years. Of course, despite some truly excellent devices from those brands, the elephant in the room (‘elf-ant’?) remains arguably the disposable vape’s greatest pioneer, Elf Bar, whose iconic Elf Bar 600 has been joined by several other great Elf Bar devices over the course of the year, offering vapers more choice than ever before.
And while valid concerns around the amount of plastic waste produced by disposables (over more sustainable vaping methods such as refillable pod kits, for example) remain, it can only be a good thing for public health that the handy little devices we know as disposable vapes, along with more traditional starter kits, pod kits and advanced vape kits, continue to draw smokers away from the dangerous habit of smoking traditional tobacco and cigarettes to the 95% safer (according to Public Health England) activity of vaping.
What are disposable vapes?
For many vapers, it is the variety of vape kits, e-liquids and vaping styles that makes the hobby so fun and rewarding. But we can’t forget that vaping exists for one reason above all: to help smokers quit the harms of traditional tobacco and cigarettes. Even in 2022, with vaping so well-established as a safer and more enjoyable alternative to smoking, many smokers might still be reluctant to commit to a pastime of coil changes, ohms, pairing the right e-liquids to the right vape kits, and tinkering with menu settings. Although all those things are what we soon learn to love about vaping, they leave the door wide open for a truly simple and instantly satisfying alternative for complete beginners.
Disposable vapes take all the fuss out of vaping and come prefilled with e-liquid, as well as a pre-charged battery, and they typically work straight out of the box. Once you remove the device from its packaging and remove the sealed tabs at the mouthpiece and base, you’re ready to start vaping! When your disposable vape begins to lose its flavour or the battery has lost its charge, you simply dispose of it (or, if you can, recycle it) and replace with a new one.
Disposable vapes typically contain nicotine salt e-liquids. The advantage of nicotine salt e-liquids is that the nicotine is absorbed into the bloodstream faster, providing near-instant relief from the peskiest of nicotine cravings. This makes Nic Salt e-liquids in disposables a great choice for recent ex-smokers, or indeed any vaper seeking the immediate, satisfying nicotine relief provided by Nic salts.
Even though disposable vapes were among the very first types of e-cigarette to appear back in the early 2000’s, in recent years they have made huge leaps in terms of the quality and variety of models and flavours available. Disposable vapes now not only offer experienced vapers a handy device to carry with them as a substitute for their regular vape kits, but they also make for a great, affordable entry-point for smokers who are curious about making the switch to vaping and improving their health and finances in the process.
So which are the best disposable vapes that have had us at Vapestore, and you our customers, vaping up a storm in the year 2022? The following list represents the most popular disposable vapes at Vapestore this year, so while it includes a few devices that first appeared a year or two ago, they remained as popular this year as some of the newer arrivals also included. Let’s go!
