The SMOK Novo Classy Pod and SMOK TFOS are two pod-style vapes from the same brand, but they don’t share identical specs. This comparison looks strictly at what’s documented for each device: battery capacity, output, charging figures, weight, and build details.
Rather than crowning one overall winner, we break things down by category since the two devices trade off in different areas, and several specs simply aren’t comparable due to missing data on one side or the other.

Battery
The SMOK TFOS wins on battery with a 1700 mAh cell versus the Novo Classy Pod’s 1350 mAh, a meaningful gap of 350 mAh that should translate into more vaping time between charges. The TFOS also charges at a higher current (1.55 A vs 1.2 A) and lists a specific charge time to 80% (45 minutes), a figure not stated for the Novo Classy Pod. Battery type is listed as “Internal” for the TFOS but not stated for the Novo Classy Pod, so that particular line isn’t a fair comparison, but the capacity and charge current numbers alone are enough to settle this category.
Performance
Performance comes out as a tie. Both devices share the same 35 W max output and both offer variable wattage, so on paper their power delivery is matched. Coil resistance options differ in how they’re listed — the Novo Classy Pod spans a 0.4Ω–2.5Ω range while the TFOS specifies a 0.8ohm installed coil plus a 0.6ohm option — but the two aren’t presented in a directly comparable format, so no winner can be drawn from that line alone.
Convenience
Convenience also ties overall, though the individual specs pull in different directions. The Novo Classy Pod is lighter at 67.1 g versus 80 g for the TFOS, which favors easier pocket carry. Both devices have a display screen and a Type-C charging port, putting them level there. The TFOS lists adjustable airflow, which the Novo Classy Pod does not state, but since that’s a case of missing data rather than a confirmed absence, it isn’t treated as a decided point in either device’s favor.
The SMOK Novo Classy Pod suits buyers who prioritize a lighter device at 67.1 g and don't need documented adjustable airflow or a specified fast-charge time.
The SMOK TFOS suits buyers who want longer battery life from a 1700 mAh cell along with a faster charge current and a stated 45-minute charge time to 80%.
The verdict
There’s no single overall winner here — the SMOK TFOS takes the battery category clearly thanks to its larger capacity and faster charge current, while performance and convenience both end in a tie based on matched output, wattage, screens, and charging ports. Some specs, like adjustable airflow and charge time to 80%, are only documented for the TFOS, and build material details differ slightly without a clear edge either way. Choosing between them comes down to whether battery runtime or lighter weight matters more to you.
