Myle vs RELX: Pod-Style Disposable Comparison

Reviewed by Ismail Hossain, Product Specialist — Last reviewed: September 28, 2026

Myle and RELX are the two pod-format disposable brands in our range, distinct from the bar-format devices most other brands use. If you’ve used a refillable pod system before and want a disposable that keeps that same slim, pod-like grip rather than switching to a chunkier bar shape, these are the two brands worth comparing first. This guide compares them across pod-style design, puff count, nicotine strength, price and build, and points out which type of buyer each brand tends to suit best.

Device certification and nicotine-strength limits for vapes sold in the UAE are set by the UAE’s Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT).

Spec comparison

Pod-style design

Both Myle and RELX build their disposables around a slimmer, pod-like form factor rather than the thicker bar shape most other disposable brands use. This makes both brands popular with buyers who specifically prefer a pod-style feel and grip in hand, even in a fully disposable (non-refillable) device. If you’re coming from a refillable pod system and want a disposable that feels familiar, either brand is a closer match to that form factor than a typical bar-shaped disposable.

The pod shape isn’t purely cosmetic. A slimmer profile generally sits flatter in a pocket and is easier to grip one-handed than a rounder bar-style device, which some buyers find more comfortable for all-day carry. Both brands have built a following among vapers who switched from refillable pod systems (like a Juul-style device) specifically because they wanted to keep that same in-hand feel without the hassle of buying separate pods and e-liquid. Neither brand’s disposables are refillable, though — once the built-in e-liquid and battery are used up, the device is disposed of and replaced, the same as any other disposable in our range.

Puff count

RELX has the much higher ceiling: the RELX Optimus is rated up to 60,000 puffs, well into our High-Puff sub-pillar, alongside the Peace 25k and Ace 20000. Myle’s current top device, the Meta Max, tops out lower at 18,000 puffs. Both brands offer smaller entry-level devices too (Myle Drip 2,600; RELX MagicGo 4,000) if you want a lower-commitment option.

Keep in mind that any manufacturer puff rating, from either brand, is a lab estimate based on a fixed puff duration rather than a guarantee of how many puffs you’ll personally get. Puff length, how often you vape and how you draw on the device all affect the real-world count, so two people vaping the same-rated device can get noticeably different numbers of puffs out of it before it’s finished. Treat the rated figure as a useful point of comparison between devices rather than an exact promise.

Nicotine strength

Myle’s range covers 20mg and 50mg (5%). RELX’s range covers 20mg and 50mg too, with the same bands represented across its high-puff devices. Both stay within the UAE.S 5030:2018 20mg/mL (2%) nicotine cap for any device marketed as compliant — see our Nicotine Strength guide for what each band means in practice.

Neither brand publishes every device at both strengths across its whole range, so it’s worth checking the specific product page rather than assuming a strength is available on a given device. If you’re new to nicotine vaping altogether or switching from a much lower-strength product, starting on the lower end of either brand’s range and moving up only if needed is generally the more comfortable approach, rather than starting at the highest available strength and finding it stronger than expected.

Price & value

Myle has the wider price range (AED 25–49), including the cheapest device between the two brands, the Myle Drip at AED 25. RELX’s range is tighter at AED 45–49. If budget is the priority, Myle’s entry-level devices go lower; check each product page for current pricing, as our catalogue changes regularly.

Looking at cost per puff sharpens the comparison. The Myle Drip at roughly AED 25 for 2,600 puffs works out to under one fil per puff, while the RELX Optimus at the higher end of its price range for up to 60,000 puffs can work out considerably cheaper per puff again, assuming you actually use most of that capacity before any natural shelf-life concerns. A buyer who vapes lightly and won’t get through a high-puff device quickly may find a mid-range option from either brand a more realistic fit than chasing the lowest cost-per-puff figure on paper, since a device that sits half-finished for months isn’t actually delivering the value its rated puff count suggests.

Build and portability

Both brands keep their devices compact and pocket-friendly, which is a large part of the appeal for buyers who specifically want a pod-style disposable rather than a bulkier bar-shaped one. Myle’s smaller devices, like the Drip, are especially slim and light, while RELX’s higher-puff devices like the Optimus carry a larger built-in battery and e-liquid reservoir to support their much higher puff ratings, so they sit a little larger in the hand than Myle’s smallest option, though still slimmer than a typical bar-format disposable of similar puff count. Neither brand currently lists a display screen or puff counter on its disposable range, so you won’t get a numeric readout of remaining puffs on either brand as it stands — the built-in battery simply runs until it’s spent or the e-liquid runs out, whichever comes first, and a gradual drop in vapour production or flavour intensity is usually the first practical sign that a device is nearing the end of its life.

Who each brand suits best

Myle tends to suit buyers who want the lowest possible entry price in a pod-style device, or who prefer a smaller, lighter device for all-day carry over maximum puff count. It’s also a reasonable choice if you want to try a few different in-stock SKUs at a lower per-unit cost rather than committing to one higher-priced device.

RELX tends to suit buyers who specifically want a pod-style device but also want the highest available puff count in that form factor, since the Optimus’s 60,000-puff rating is well above anything else in either brand’s current pod-style range. It’s a better fit for someone who vapes often enough to use a meaningful share of that capacity, rather than someone who only vapes occasionally and would be better served by a lower-puff, lower-price device from either brand’s entry-level lineup.

Verdict

Choose RELX if you want the higher puff ceiling, up to 60,000 puffs in a pod-style device. Choose Myle if you want a lower entry price or a slightly smaller, more pocket-friendly pod-style device. Both are the pod-format alternative to bar-shaped disposables in our Disposable category, and if neither brand’s puff count or price range fits what you need, our full Disposable Vapes range covers dozens of bar-format brands as well.

Myle vs RELX FAQ

Which lasts longer, Myle or RELX?
RELX’s highest-rated device (up to 60,000 puffs) lasts far longer than Myle’s highest (18,000 puffs).

Which is cheaper?
Myle has the lower entry price (AED 25 for the Myle Drip) versus RELX’s AED 45–49 range.

What makes these different from bar-shaped disposables?
Both use a slimmer, pod-like form factor closer to a refillable pod system than the thicker bar shape most other disposable brands use.

What nicotine strengths are available?
Both brands’ in-stock ranges cover 20mg and 50mg (5%).

Are both legal to buy in the UAE?
Yes, both are sold within UAE.S 5030:2018 compliant strengths where marketed as such, to buyers 18+. See our Is Vaping Legal guide.

Can I refill either the Myle or RELX disposable once it’s empty?
No. Both brands’ disposables in our range are sealed, single-use devices — there’s no refillable pod or cartridge to swap out. If you specifically want a refillable pod system rather than a disposable, that’s a different product category to what either brand offers here.

Do Myle and RELX disposables feel different to draw on compared to a bar-shaped disposable?
The slimmer pod shape mainly changes how the device feels in your hand and pocket rather than the draw itself, which depends more on the specific device’s airflow design than its outer shape. If draw resistance matters to you, checking a device’s individual product page description is more useful than assuming it from the brand’s form factor alone.

Which brand has more flavour variety?
Flavour range varies by device and changes as our catalogue updates, so check each product’s own page for its current flavour options rather than assuming either brand has a fixed lineup. Both brands typically offer a mix of fruit, menthol and mixed-fruit profiles across their in-stock SKUs, so browsing each brand’s current listings directly is the most reliable way to see what’s on offer today.

Can I switch between Myle and RELX without any adjustment period?
Most vapers can move between the two brands without difficulty, since both use a similar pod-style form factor and comparable nicotine strength bands. The main things to check when switching are the nicotine strength of the specific device you’re moving to and its puff rating, so you know roughly how long it should last compared with what you’re used to, as well as whether the flavour profile you’ve grown used to on one brand has a close match on the other.
