INTRODUCTION
Hello everyone and welcome to another review. Today I will be going over the X-Class by Yihi SX Mini. This device is something rather unique to the market. It is a full-size, auto squonking mod. It features a pump which sends liquid up to your atomizer, and packs in all of the features that Yihi typically does and then some. The mod is a big one, measuring in at 95.5mm tall and 57mm wide, with a top plate large enough to handle atomizers just a hair over 30mm. It is powered by dual 18650 batteries, has a 4mL bottle assembly, and has a max output of 200w. This has been out for a while, but the version I have has been worked on by Yihi to work out some of the bugs of the early release. Let’s get right to it eh?
DISCLAIMER: This device was sent to my by Yihi SXmini for review.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Damn! This is one of the prettiest devices I have ever had in for review. The finish, the feel, and the overall quality is immaculate. There isn’t a damn thing wrong with this functionally or cosmetically. Out of the box, you will find a large device, with some weight to it. FIll up the bottle, and toss in two batteries, and it gets even heavier. HOWEVER, this isn’t as massive as I thought it would be. It is a chunky monkey, but it feels so great in my hands that I instantly forgive it for the lack of diet. In fact, the overall size of it is a little narrower than the Wotofo Dyadic, and the weight is that of a Rage squonker (maybe less). Getting more in depth and I found that the battery door is a nice, solid bottom hinge with slide latch, similar to what they did on the G class. The squonk bottle is also held firmly in place, and it just pops down and pulls out. Once the thing is powered up you are greeted with a lengthy SXmini screen, and then it shows you the very clear, and large touch screen. The touch screen is sensitive to the touch and never failed me once. I saw some early release videos of the screen wigging out or not working for some, but that was not an issue for me. It is just as responsive as a smart phone and works well even for hitting small portions on the display. Based on the startup and just getting it in my hand, I could not wait to start testing.

OPERATION AND USE
I am going to attempt to write this as simply as I can, but it has a TON of features to go through.
To get things rolling, press the fire button 5 times and it will power up. Once on, 3 clicks of the fire button will lock the device out, and it is unlocked with 3 more clicks of the fire button. When in operating mode, you can click the fire button 5 times and it will enter the main menu where you will find the following options.
You can unlock the screen by swiping up on the lock symbol in the lower right corner and then click around on the screen for adjusting settings here and there as well. It is really hard to explain all of these things but the book does a good job of showing these settings. Once I used this thing for a while it actually was pretty simple and I found that the touch screen made it one of the easier Yihi chipsets to navigate. I never really liked how they did the joystick thing on the G class and I found that many of the button clicks didn’t feel natural. This is as simple as a few clicks and swipes and you are off and running. Not bad, and has a TON of features to play with. A fiddler’s dream if you will.

DIVINE RDA MINI REVIEW
I want to touch lightly on the Divine RDA they sent me. This is a run of the mill, bottom airflow, Velocity-ish deck atomizer. Flavor is not awful from it, but it is a bit crude. It also looks REALLY goofy on top of this mod because it is so small in comparison to the 510 plate of the X-class. I used this for a day and swapped it out for something I actually wanted to vape on top. It isn’t a bad RDA for a new builder, but it is very dated. Also, if you don’t have the auto-squonking dialed in, you can over squonk and piss juice out the bottom airflow.
