Disclaimer: This review reflects my own thoughts and opinions—I am not associated with OXBAR, nor am I being paid for this review. I fully acknowledge that disposable vapes are not the best option for the environment, and I always encourage people to choose reusable pod systems or other more sustainable devices. That said, harm reduction is important, and if a product like this helps someone stay away from cigarettes, I believe that’s a step in the right direction.

Design
The Oxbar ICE-NIC Control has a sleek, futuristic design that feels sturdy and well-made. With its compact size and a weight of just 115g, it’s portable without feeling flimsy. The polycarbonate (PC) material gives it a smooth finish that’s both durable and comfortable to hold.
What immediately stands out is the built-in NIC Control feature, which is a unique selling point for this device. It allows users to switch between nicotine strengths directly on the device—something I haven’t seen much in the disposable vape world. This makes it versatile for different nicotine preferences or for those looking to gradually lower their intake.
The size and shape feel ergonomic, and the mouthpiece is wide enough for both MTL and DTL styles. I also appreciate the USB Type-C charging port for quick recharges, which is crucial for a device with a 35,000-puff capacity.
Flavors
The Oxbar ICE-NIC Control offers a wide variety of flavors, and I tested the following:
Watermelon Apple Gush (Pisces) – A juicy blend of sweet watermelon and crisp apple, perfectly balanced for a refreshing vape.
Rocket Pop (Scorpio) – Inspired by the classic popsicle, it’s a nostalgic mix of fruity flavors with a hint of coolness.
Fruity Pebz (Aries) – A playful, sweet cereal flavor with creamy undertones, ideal for dessert lovers.
Green Apple Burst (Aquarius) – A tart and tangy green apple flavor that packs a punch with each puff.
Sour Peachy O’s (Virgo) – A mouthwatering candy-inspired flavor combining sour peaches with a sugary finish.
One fun detail about the ICE-NIC Control is that each flavor is assigned a zodiac sign, adding a touch of personality to the experience. Each box includes a card listing the flavors and their corresponding star signs, making it a unique collectible for astrology enthusiasts.
The dual mesh coil technology keeps the flavors rich and consistent throughout, ensuring every puff is just as satisfying as the last.
Performance
The performance of the ICE-NIC Control is impressive. The 35,000-puff capacity is unmatched, making this device a solid choice for those who want a long-lasting disposable without frequent replacements.
The 900mAh battery might seem small for such a large puff count, but the efficient design allows it to keep up. USB Type-C charging means you can quickly top it up and keep going. I found the battery life to hold up well, even with frequent use, requiring only a couple of charges per day.
One of the most innovative features is the NIC Control, which lets you adjust the nicotine strength. It’s a simple slider system that allows for more customization depending on your preference. Whether you’re looking for a stronger hit or something milder, this feature is a game-changer for disposables.
The airflow is adjustable, allowing you to switch between a tighter MTL draw or a more open DTL hit. This versatility makes it ideal for both new and experienced vapers.
Pros
- Massive 35,000-puff capacity for long-term use
- NIC Control for adjustable nicotine strength
- Compact and ergonomic design, easy to carry
- Dual mesh coil for vibrant and consistent flavor
- USB Type-C charging for convenience
- Adjustable airflow for MTL and DTL styles
- Wide variety of delicious flavors
Cons
- At 115g, the device is slightly heavier than other disposables, which could impact portability for some.
- The 35,000-puff capacity might be overkill for casual vapers who prefer switching devices more frequently.
- The adjustable airflow is a nice touch but might feel too open for users who prefer a tight MTL draw.
Verdict
The Oxbar ICE-NIC Control is a standout in the disposable vape market, offering a level of customization and longevity that few devices can match. The NIC Control feature makes it perfect for anyone looking to tailor their nicotine experience or gradually reduce their intake, while the 35,000-puff capacity ensures you won’t need a replacement anytime soon.
While the battery life might not match the massive puff count, the fast charging makes it easy to keep going. If you’re after a long-lasting disposable with exceptional flavor, innovative features, and sleek design, the ICE-NIC Control is well worth checking out.
Another big thanks to Oxbar for sending me these devices to try. It was definitely a pleasure to have these around. Don’t forget to check out their website for these products, and everything else they have to offer!
