SMOK Nord 6 Review: Specs, Pods and Coils
Our Nord 6 review in short: SMOK packed a 3800mAh battery into a pocket-size 80W pod mod. It comes with two pods: a 0.4 ohm dual mesh pod and an RPM pod with a 0.15 ohm coil. Swap one for the other, and you go from a smooth, flavor-first draw to big clouds.

SMOK Nord 6
The Nord 6 by SMOK is an 80W pod mod with a 1.65-inch HD screen and an airflow slider on the side. It comes with two pods, so you can pick a smooth draw or big clouds. We also have all eight colors in stock right now. Shop the Nord 6.
Best for: vapers who want one pod kit for smooth flavor or big clouds, with a big battery.
Good to know: It’s bigger than a slim pod kit, and the coils we sell for it top out at 60W.
Which pod should you use?
The SMOK Nord 6 takes two kinds of 5mL pods, and both click on with magnets. Depending on the pod, though, you fill it from the side or the top.
- The 0.4 ohm dual mesh pod has its coil built in, so you swap the whole pod when the flavor fades. It also gives a smoother draw at lower power. Our 2-packs cost $8.99.
- The RPM pod takes RPM 4 coils, so you only swap the coil. Our empty pod costs $4.99, while the coils come in 5-packs.
Here’s how the two RPM 4 coils compare, using the watt ratings from our coil page:
| Coil | Watts |
|---|---|
| 0.15 ohm mesh (in the box) | 30W to 60W, best at 50W |
| 0.6 ohm mesh | 10W to 30W, best at 28W |
The 0.15 ohm coil gives big clouds with an open draw, while the 0.6 ohm coil gives a tighter, cooler draw at lower power. Our coil 5-packs cost $13.99, and we have both in stock.
We noticed one quirk while writing this Nord 6 review. The device goes up to 80W, but neither RPM 4 coil we sell is rated above 60W. That last 20W is headroom you won’t need with these coils.
Battery, screen and modes
The SMOK Nord 6 has a 3800mAh battery built in, and it charges over USB-C. Its 1.65-inch HD screen shows your settings. The side slider sets the airflow, so you can go from a tight MTL draw to a looser DTL one.
There are three modes as well: Normal, Smooth and Boost. Whenever you charge it, follow the FDA’s tips to help avoid vape battery fires. Charge it on a clean, flat surface, away from anything that can catch fire. Avoid phone or tablet chargers too, and don’t leave it charging overnight.
Nord 6 review: who should buy it?
Our Nord 6 review verdict comes down to choice. Get it if you want an 80W pod mod that also has a big battery and two kinds of pods. If you mostly vape nic salts at low power, though, a slimmer pod kit is easier to carry.
Still deciding? Our Aegis Hero 5 review covers a rugged 50W kit with a 6.5mL pod. For nic salts, our XROS 6 vs Caliburn G5 guide compares two slim pod kits instead. You can also browse every pod kit we carry.
