SKE Crystal Review: Full Flavour List & Real-World Thoughts
SKE Crystal Range Review (Post-Disposable Update): Real-World Thoughts & Full Flavour Guide
Why this update exists
If you read my original SKE Crystal Bar disposable review, you’ll know I loved the look, the simplicity, and the flavours. But the world’s moved on. As of 1 June 2025, the UK has banned the sale and supply of single-use vapes. What is still legal are rechargeable, reusable devices that use replaceable pods — which is exactly where SKE have put their energy with the Crystal range.
This new guide recaps the Crystal family that replaced the disposable era and, crucially, helps you pick the right device if you’re switching from smoking (like I did five years ago) or moving on from classic disposables. I’ve structured it like my original piece — plain-spoken, hands-on, and full of flavour notes — but focused on reusable kits:
• SKE Crystal Bar Prefilled Pod Kit
• SKE Crystal Plus
• SKE Crystal CL6000 (“big-puff” pod system)
• SKE Crystal 4in1 (four-flavour carousel)
I’ll talk through how each device feels to use, hold, and live with, then dive into flavours for each, flagging recurring favourites across the range so you can keep your all-day vape no matter which kit you choose.
The Post-Disposable Context - What Changed & Why
On 1 June 2025, it became illegal in the UK to sell or supply single-use vapes — defined as vapes that aren’t refillable and whose batteries can’t be recharged. Reusable, rechargeable pod systems remain lawful. That’s why you’ll see SKE emphasising pod kits and prefilled Crystal refills rather than one-and-done sticks.
If you’re switching today, you’re choosing among reusable options — which is better for your pocket and the planet.
SKE Crystal Bar Prefilled Pod Kit — Review & Flavours
If you loved the original Crystal Bar disposable, this is the most faithful “feel” in a compliant format. You charge the body, swap the 2 ml prefilled pods when they’re empty, and carry on. It’s the same fuss-free vibe with a bit of adulting
Ergonomics & build
SKE’s crystal-clear shell and angular lines are still here; in the hand it’s light, slim, and familiar. The duckbill mouthpiece sits naturally, and the airflow is tuned for a tight MTL draw — cigarette-like without being pinched. If you’re a former 10–20-a-day smoker, you’ll likely find the pull satisfying at 20 mg nic salt. Pocket carry is easy: it doesn’t jab the leg, and it doesn’t rattle. The finish resists scuffs better than you’d expect for a shiny device, though I’d keep keys elsewhere.
Using it day-to-day
There’s no button. You inhale and it fires. The USB-C port means top-ups on your commute are straightforward; I tended to plug it in at my desk between coffees. Condensation is modest — a quick tissue swab around the pod base every couple of days kept everything pristine. Importantly, the pods click in with a decent magnetic bite; I never had a pod pop out in a pocket. Specs highlight 2 ml / 20 mg nic salt and about 600 puffs per pod depending on draw length.
Who it’s for
• New switchers who want the closest disposable feel without breaking the new rules.
• Anyone who values simplicity over settings.
• Lighter to moderate vapers who don’t want to carry spares all day.

Flavours Crystal Bar Prefilled Pods
The range is already strong and grows over time.
Current highlights include:
Blue Fusion, Blueberry Raspberries, Blueberry Sour Raspberry, Cherry Ice, Fresh Menthol Mojito, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Lemon & Lime, Mango Ice, Menthol, Peach Ice, Pink Lemonade, Red Apple Ice, Strawberry Burst, Strawberry Ice Cream, Watermelon Ice.
If you’re coming from the classic Crystal Bar, you’ll recognise most of these — the profiles are clean and not overly sweet.
Personal notes:
• Cherry Ice — bright cherry with a breezy menthol lift; not cough-syrup sweet, thankfully.
• Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava — punchy tropicals with a tart centre; great if you liked louder disposables.
• Strawberry Ice Cream — dessert-leaning but still light; I treat it as a “sweet after lunch”.
• Lemon & Lime — crisp, zesty, and a safe all-day runner when you’re flavour-tired.
SKE Crystal Plus Pod Kit — Review & Flavours
Same premium Crystal aesthetic, slightly more substantial hand-feel, and the pods to match. If someone asks me, “Which SKE is the best first pod kit?” — this is the one I point to. If you are looking for an indepth stand alone view then head to our comprehensive SKE Crystal Plus Vape Review. Otherwise for a quick cheat sheet read on.
Ergonomics & build
The Crystal Plus keeps that polished, jewel-like casing but adds just enough heft to feel secure. The mouthpiece is well-shaped for MTL — lips seal naturally, and you can “sip” tiny puffs without accidental overdraw. It’s a pocket friendly stick, and the clear pod window means you can eyeball your juice level at a glance (handy if you chain vape on the train).
Performance & battery
Under the hood is a 400 mAh cell. In real-world terms, I got a comfortable workday from a full charge if I wasn’t hammering it; heavy evenings needed a top-up. The firing is immediate with no lag. Pods are 2 ml / 20 mg nic salt, estimating around 600 puffs; flavour delivery is consistent from full to near-empty — no weird fade after the first day, which some cheaper pod systems can suffer.
Who it’s for
• New vapers who want a polished, reliable all-rounder.
• Anyone who values consistency across popular Crystal flavours.
• Commuters who appreciate the slimline shape and quick USB-C top-ups.

Flavours Crystal Plus Pods
Expect a line-up of Crystal big hitters such as:
Blue Razz Lemonade, Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava, Watermelon Ice, Pink Lemonade, Lemon & Lime, Cherry Ice, Strawberry Burst, Rainbow, Blue Fusion, Cotton Candy Bubblegum, Fire Brew, Cherry Strawberry Raspberry, and more.
It’s a deep bench, and the pods capture that “Crystal snap” without leaning sickly sweet.
Personal notes:
• Blue Razz Lemonade — still the GOAT if you like candy-sour with a lemonade bite.
• Rainbow — mixed sweets, but toned so it doesn’t scorch your palate by 4pm.
• Cotton Candy Bubblegum — nostalgic, best in short sessions.
• Watermelon Ice — clean, cooling finish; brilliant palate reset between heavier fruits.
SKE Crystal CL6000 Pod Kit — Review & Flavours
Think “disposable convenience, pod-kit economics.” The CL6000 runs 10 ml prefilled pods with dual mesh coils and an 800 mAh device battery. Headline figure: up to 6,000 puffs per pod. Fewer swaps, fewer pocket spares, less faff.
Ergonomics & build
This is still a Crystal at heart — clear lines, compact footprint — but it feels more solid in hand than the tiny stick kits. The pod is a little larger (obviously, at 10 ml), which actually helps with grip; it’s stable in the hand and doesn’t feel top-heavy. The mouthpiece is a comfortable MTL oval — not too wide — and the device keeps the auto-draw ease.
Performance & battery
In practice, the 800 mAh cell plus dual-mesh pod gives you a very even flavour curve across the pod’s lifespan. If you’re heavy-handed like me, this is the first Crystal I didn’t feel I had to “baby” through the second half of a pod. Type-C top-ups are quick. For most users, a single charge easily covers a workday; longer if you’re not chain-vaping.
Note on compliance & design intent: The CL6000 is clearly pitched as a reusable system with replaceable prefilled pods — not a single-use vape — and is sold in the UK alongside other TPD-compliant pod ranges. Always buy reputable UK stock so you’re getting the legitimate pod format and correct nicotine strength.
Who it’s for
• Heavy or frequent vapers who hate swapping pods every day.
• Budget-minded users who want longer between refills.
• Drivers/desk-workers who appreciate “pick up and puff” with minimal maintenance.

Flavours CL6000 Pods
Core flavours include:
Blueberry Raspberries, Cherry Ice, Lush Ice, Mango Ice, Sour Apple, Cola Ice, Strawberry Burst, Kiwi Passionfruit Guava, Pink Lemonade, Grape.
Plus you’ll often see Blue Razz Lemonade listed among flavour variants when buying the device. It’s a solid, grown-up slate with a nice spread of fruit-ice and soda-style blends.
Personal notes:
• Lush Ice — watermelon-centric with soft chill; superb all-day on CL6000’s dual mesh.
• Cola Ice — fizzy cola candies, not flat or syrupy; a great “between meals” vape.
• Sour Apple — sharp, clean green apple; keeps that tang right to the last 10%.
• Grape — fuller body than on small pods; satisfies when you’d otherwise reach for dessert.
SKE Crystal 4in1 Pod Kit— Review & Flavours
Four pods, one device, no swapping. The 4in1 holds four 2 ml pods at once for 8 ml total, powered by a 950 mAh battery. You rotate the selector, hear the distinctive click-clack, and you’re onto the next flavour. Up to 2,400 puffs per full set. It’s a brilliant “sampler” or a commuter’s dream if you bounce between sweet, fruit, and mint through the day.
Ergonomics & build
It’s chunkier than a single-pod stick, obviously, but it’s short and pocketable — more “matchbox” than baton. The rotating clip is tactile and positive; I never once mis-aligned a pod in normal use. The device sits upright on a desk (nice touch), and the clear windows make it easy to monitor which pod you’re about to select.
Performance & battery
The 950 mAh cell goes noticeably further than the smaller pod kits. Because you’re spreading usage across four pods, the flavour of each pod stays fresher over the day — you’re not chain-pummelling the same coil non-stop. The mesh inside these 1.1 Ω pods keeps flavour crisp, and I didn’t encounter gurgle or spit-back even with rapid switching.
Who it’s for
• The variety hunter: love fruit before lunch, mint after? This is you.
• Social vapers who pass a device around — everyone can land on their flavour.
• People trying to wean off sweet profiles: keep a Menthol/Watermelon Ice “reset” pod loaded.

Blueberry Lime, Blueberry Peach, Blueberry Raspberries, Blueberry Sour Raspberry, Cherry Ice, Fizzy Cherry, Strawberry Burst, White Peach Razz, Tropical Mixed, Watermelon Ice, Watermelon Strawberry, Pink Lemonade, Melon Berry, Lemon & Lime, Lychee Ice and more.
The themed Editions are genuinely handy if you want four complementary flavours pre-selected.
Personal notes:
• Blue Edition — a proper tour of the blue-fruit spectrum with enough contrast to keep things interesting.
• White Edition — summer picnic vibes (watermelon/strawberry/lemonade/melon berry).
• Rose Edition — cherry-leaning with a playful peach; great for dessert moods.
• Green Edition — citrus-forward and refreshing, my pick for long commutes.
Crossover Flavours: What Repeats Where
If you’ve got a “forever flavour,” you’ll want to know where it appears.
Here’s a quick cheat-sheet based on current lineups:
• Blue Razz Lemonade — Crystal Plus, CL6000 (listed among device flavour variants), not yet everywhere else.
• Cherry Ice — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, CL6000, 4in1. A true Crystal staple.
• Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, CL6000. Max-tropical, wide coverage.
• Lemon & Lime — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, 4in1 (via Edition mixes). Crisp everywhere.
• Pink Lemonade — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, CL6000, 4in1 (White Edition set). A safe crowd-pleaser.
• Strawberry Burst — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, CL6000, 4in1 (Rose Edition set). Sweet but not gunky.
• Watermelon Ice — Crystal Bar Pods, Crystal Plus, 4in1 (White Edition set). (CL6000 has Lush Ice if you want that profile in big-puff format.)
• Blueberry Raspberries / Blueberry Sour Raspberry — found across Bar Pods, Plus, CL6000, 4in1. If you’re a blue-fruit purist, you’ll be fine on any kit.
Tip: If you can’t find your exact disposable favourite in one system, there’s usually a near-twin (e.g., Lush Ice ↔ Watermelon Ice; Blueberry Raspberries ↔ Blue Razz Lemonade if you like sharper candy tones).
Which SKE suits you? - Use-Case Matchmaking
“I just quit smoking and want the least hassle.”
Go Crystal Bar Prefilled Pod Kit or Crystal Plus. Both are simple, 2 ml/20 mg pods, comfy MTL draw, quick charge, and super portable. The Plus has the broader flavour bench right now.
“I’m a heavy user and hate changing pods.”
CL6000. The 10 ml prefiled pod and 800 mAh cell are built for fewer swaps and steady flavour. Dual mesh keeps the taste bright even late in the pod.
“I get bored and want multiple flavours in one go.”
4in1. Load four pods and rotate. It’s brilliant for social settings, travel days, or resetting your palate without carrying a second device.
“Which is closest to the old Crystal Bar disposable?”
Crystal Bar Prefilled Pod Kit (experience), Crystal Plus (polish + selection). Both keep that classic Crystal feel while being reusable.

| Flavour | Profile |
|---|---|
| Blue Fusion | layered blue fruits without the sharp “candy sting”; mellow all-day. (Also in Crystal Plus) |
| Blueberry Raspberries | juicy-tart balance, clean finish. (Appears across Bar/Plus/CL6000/4in1 as “blueberry” variants) |
| Blueberry Sour Raspberry | brighter and zingier than the above; great palate wake-up. (Plus & 4in1 too) |
| Cherry Ice | vivid cherry with an ice cap; reliable everyday. (Everywhere) |
| Fresh Menthol Mojito | mint-lime twist; refreshing rather than sugary. (Bar exclusive right now) |
| Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava | tart, tropical, satisfying. (Plus & CL6000 too) |
| Lemon & Lime | crisp spritz; my “reset button”. (Plus & 4in1) |
| Mango Ice | ripe mango with a cool tail; sweet but tidy. (Plus & CL6000) |

| Pink Lemonade | fizzy berry-lemonade vibe; dependable classic. (Across the range) |
| Red Apple Ice | crisp and clean; like a chilled apple slice. |
| Strawberry Burst | ripe strawberry; not bubblegummy. (Plus/CL6000/4in1 too) |
| Strawberry Ice Cream | dessert-leaning; best as a treat. |

B) Crystal Plus — Top Pick Flavour Notes
| Flavour | Profile |
|---|---|
| Blue Razz Lemonade | candied blues with a lemonade bite; a must-try. (CL6000 variant exists too) |

| Grape | bold, juicy purple; a satisfying evening flavour. |
D) Crystal 4in1 — Stand Out Flavour Notes
| Flavour | Profile |
|---|---|
| Blue Edition | Blueberry Sour Raspberry / Cola Ice / Blueberry Raspberries / Blueberry Peach. A complete “blue” journey; Cola cuts the sweetness nicely. |
| White Edition | Watermelon Ice / Watermelon Strawberry / Pink Lemonade / Melon Berry. Summer picnic; two watermelons sound samey but vape quite differently. |
| Rose Edition | Cherry Ice / Fizzy Cherry / Strawberry Burst / White Peach Razz. Dessert-friendly, still fresh. |
| Green Edition | Lemon & Lime / Blueberry Lime / Tropical Mixed / Lychee Ice. Zesty, adventurous, a great palate reset set. |
Final verdict
SKE’s Crystal line has done exactly what UK vapers needed after 1 June 2025: it’s taken the things people actually loved about Crystal — that clean, punchy flavour, the easy MTL draw, the jewel-like design — and rebuilt them into grown-up, reusable kits that are simple to live with day after day.
• Crystal Bar Prefilled Pod Kit — Closest to the old disposable feel. Slim, crystal shell, effortless draw, and straightforward 2 ml pods. If you want the least change to your routine, start here.
• Crystal Plus — The most balanced daily driver. Light, pocketable, consistent flavour across a deep pod range; ideal first “proper” device for new switchers.
• CL6000 — The long-runner. Dual-mesh smoothness and big, long-lasting pods mean fewer swaps and steadier taste over multiple days. Great for heavier users or anyone who hates faff.
• 4in1 — The variety machine. Four pods loaded at once, one click to switch. Perfect if you get flavour fatigue or like matching your vape to the moment.
From a practical, ex-smoker point of view: all four deliver a cigarette-style MTL that satisfies without the learning curve. Battery life scales with size (Plus < 4in1 < CL6000), and the pod ecosystem covers the familiar hits — Blue Razz Lemonade, Cherry Ice, Watermelon Ice, KPG, Pink Lemonade — so you can keep “your” flavour as you move between devices.
My honest steer:
If you loved Crystal Bar disposables, go Crystal Plus or Bar Prefilled for an easy, confidence-building switch. If you’re a frequent vaper or commuter, pick CL6000 and enjoy the calm of not running out. If you’re indecisive (or just curious), the 4in1 makes flavour fun again without carrying two devices.
Bottom line: whichever route you take, you’re getting the Crystal taste and feel in a format that’s legal, reusable, and genuinely easier to live with — exactly what I wanted when I quit smoking and started vaping five years ago.
Quick FAQs
Are these legal in the UK after 1 June 2025?
Yes — these are reusable pod systems with rechargeable batteries. The ban is on single-use vapes only. Always buy legitimate UK stock. GOV.UK
What nicotine strength are the pods?
Most SKE prefilled pods are 20 mg nic salt in 2 ml pods (CL6000 uses larger prefilled pods). Nic salts deliver faster relief and a smooth throat hit for new switchers.
How long does a pod last?
Roughly 600 puffs for 2 ml pods; up to 6,000 puffs for CL6000 pods; 2,400 puffs for a full 4-pod 4in1 set. Your mileage depends on how hard/long you draw.
Any maintenance tips?
• Give the pod base and contacts a light wipe every few days.
• Don’t store face-down in a hot car; all pods dislike heat.
• If you chain vape, rotate between two flavours to keep coils tasting fresh (4in1 makes this effortless).
