The SMOK IPX 80 and SMOK Novo Classy Pod represent two different approaches to vaping: one built around higher output and larger battery capacity, the other around a smaller, lighter pod format. Comparing them side by side highlights where each one is designed to perform.
This comparison sticks strictly to the specs and notes available, calling out categories where the data simply isn’t there to declare a winner.

Battery
The SMOK IPX 80 wins the battery category on the strength of its 3000 mAh internal battery, more than double the 1350 mAh found in the SMOK Novo Classy Pod. It also charges at a higher current (1.4 A vs 1.2 A) and specifies a charge time to 80% of 90 minutes, a figure not stated for the SMOK Novo Classy Pod. Together these numbers point to a device meant for longer sessions between charges, while the SMOK Novo Classy Pod’s smaller cell trades capacity for its compact size.
Performance
The SMOK IPX 80 takes the performance category with an 80 W max output compared to the SMOK Novo Classy Pod’s 35 W, giving it a much wider power ceiling for producing vapor. Both devices offer variable wattage and a display screen, so the gap here comes down to raw output range rather than feature availability. The coil resistance ranges differ (0.15ohm–3ohm for the SMOK IPX 80 versus 0.4Ω–2.5Ω ±5% for the SMOK Novo Classy Pod), but there isn’t enough comparable data to weigh that difference on its own.
Convenience
The SMOK Novo Classy Pod wins convenience mainly on weight, at 67.1 g versus the SMOK IPX 80’s 130 g, making it the lighter, more pocketable option of the two. Build materials differ too — zinc alloy on the SMOK Novo Classy Pod against leatherette on the SMOK IPX 80 — but there’s no comparable data to say which holds up better day to day. Details like adjustable airflow and exact charging port specs aren’t stated for the SMOK Novo Classy Pod, so the convenience edge here rests specifically on its lighter build.
The SMOK IPX 80 suits vapers who want a larger 3000 mAh battery and higher 80 W output for more powerful, longer-lasting sessions.
The SMOK Novo Classy Pod suits vapers who prioritize a lighter, more compact device at 67.1 g for everyday carrying.
The verdict
Neither device comes out ahead across the board, and the facts don’t support naming an overall winner. The SMOK IPX 80 leads in battery capacity and performance, with a larger 3000 mAh cell and 80 W max output that suit users who want more power and longer runtime. The SMOK Novo Classy Pod leads in convenience, thanks to its lighter 67.1 g build, appealing to users who prioritize a smaller, easier-to-carry device. Several specs, including battery type, adjustable airflow, and coil resistance comparisons, remain unstated or non-comparable for one or both products, so buyers should weigh what matters most to them rather than expect one device to win outright.
