GPP Alpha Pods and AlphaCore Longevity
The heart of the G5 is the new GPP Alpha Cartridge. Built on AlphaCore longevity technology, it is designed to hold stable flavour for longer so you vape more and replace less — “not just more pods, but less hassle, less cost,” and the kit ships with three of them to start. The soft-touch TPU mouthpiece keeps that long life comfortable, and consistent flavour from a long-lasting coil is exactly what most MTL vapers actually want day to day.
Battery and Six-Day Endurance
The 1600mAh cell is rated at up to six days of typical use, so commuting or a short trip needs no charger in your pocket. That endurance, paired with up to 35W of output, is a big reason the G5 stands in the Caliburn family: enough power to stay satisfying while genuinely lasting a working week between charges for moderate users.
Triple-Tap Sensor and Controls
Uwell skips fiddly button combos here: a built-in tap sensor lets you assign key functions — switching mode, UI or brightness — to a simple triple tap. That works even when the screen is hard to see, so you can adjust on the move, in low light or bright sun without staring at the device. A side-mounted AFC lets you glide the draw from tight MTL toward a looser inhale.
Design and Themes
A premium aluminium body with a matte, fingerprint-resistant surface gives a sophisticated look and a smooth, comfortable grip. Each colourway carries its own deeply-integrated UI theme, so the interface matches the shell — a cohesive, immersive touch rather than a generic screen.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Up to ~6-day 1600mAh battery; up to 35W; three long-life GPP Alpha pods included; AlphaCore stable-flavour longevity; side AFC MTL–DTL; triple-tap sensor control; premium aluminium; per-colour UI themes.
- Cons: Relies on the GPP Alpha cartridge as a consumable; 35W tops out for big clouds; tap gestures take a session or two to learn.
