Overview
This Uwell Caliburn G2 review is a specification-based look at a refillable pod system that our shop lists at AED 100. We have not run a hands-on test for this page. Everything below comes from the product listing, the published specifications and the wider Caliburn range, so you can judge the device before you order.
The listing describes an aluminium-alloy pod system with an 850mAh rechargeable battery, a 5 to 20W wattage range, a 3ml top-fill pod, USB Type-C charging, an OLED screen and a button to fire. It takes Caliburn G and G2 coils, with 1.2 ohm Caliburn G2 coils named in the listing. Those details make it a compact, adjustable device that sits between the smallest Caliburn kits and the larger 35W models.
Use this page as a checklist. We cover the specifications, design, battery and power, the pod and coil system, a side-by-side table against other Uwell kits we sell, and the UAE rules for buying. Pods and coils are model specific, so confirm compatibility before you buy spares. You are buying for adults only: 21+ only, and UAE law may set a higher age limit.

Uwell Caliburn G2 Review: Key Specifications
The product listing gives a clear specification sheet, and it is worth reading line by line because several small details decide whether this kit fits your routine. The listing states the following for the Uwell Caliburn G2 Pod System 20W.
- Device type: pod system, refillable
- Battery: 850mAh, rechargeable, charged over USB Type-C
- Wattage range: 5 to 20W
- E-liquid capacity: 3ml with a top-fill pod
- Activation: button activated
- Coils: Caliburn G and G2 coils, with 1.2 ohm Caliburn G2 coils listed
- Body: aluminium-alloy chassis with an OLED screen
- Safety features: low power protection, 8 second overtime protection and intelligent resistance detection
- Pod connection: magnetic
Two things stand out. First, the wattage range is adjustable rather than fixed, which is not true of every small pod device. Second, the pod is filled from the top, so you open the mouthpiece area rather than a side port. The listing also mentions a juice viewing window on the pod, which lets you see the liquid level at a glance.
The shop price is AED 100 at the time of writing, and the listing shows the device as in stock. Prices and stock can change, so check the live page before ordering. Colours are offered as options on the listing, and the photos on this page show several of them.
One caution on wording. The listing describes the device with broad marketing language, and we do not repeat those claims here as facts. What we can say is what the specification table says. For regulation, the UAE expects vaping products to meet the UAE.S 5030:2018 standard (MoIAT), and you should look for ECAS marking on the pack you receive.
Design, Build and Display
The chassis is listed as aluminium alloy, a material Uwell uses across several Caliburn kits. Metal bodies tend to resist scratches better than plain plastic, though we cannot confirm how this unit wears over months, because this is not a hands-on review. What the listing does confirm is the pairing of that body with a magnetic pod connection, meaning the pod snaps onto the device rather than relying only on friction.
The OLED screen is the feature that separates the G2 from the simplest Caliburn models. A screen lets the device report information such as the wattage you have set, so you are not guessing. Combined with the button activation, it gives a more deliberate way of using the kit than a draw-activated stick. You press to fire, and you can raise or lower the output within the 5 to 20W range.
The listing names several colours through the colour attribute, and our photos show finishes such as Ultramarine Blue, Shading Grey, Pyrrole, Gradient, Cobalt Green and Carbon Black. Colour choice does not change the specifications, so pick on taste. For a wider look at the maker, see our Uwell brand page, which lists every Uwell device and review we carry.
Battery, Power and Charging
The listing gives the battery as 850mAh and rechargeable, charged through USB Type-C. We are correcting something here. An earlier version of this page quoted a 750mAh battery, but the current listing says 850mAh, so that is the figure we use. We do not publish a run-time estimate, because battery life depends on the wattage you choose, how often you take puffs and the liquid you use, and the listing gives no tested figure.
The practical point is how the numbers relate. Output power draws on the battery, so running the device at the top of its 20W range will empty it faster than running it at the low end. With a 5 to 20W window you can trade power for endurance. If you want a longer day between charges, start low and raise the wattage only when the flavour or vapour feels thin.
For context, other Uwell kits we sell use different batteries. The Caliburn G4 Classic lists 1,400mAh and a 35W maximum, while the GK2 Vision lists 690mAh and 18W. The G2 sits in the middle on battery size and offers more headroom on wattage than the GK2 Vision. That placement is a reasonable fit for someone who wants control without moving up to the larger 35W kits.
The safety list is also relevant here. Low power protection, 8 second overtime protection and intelligent resistance detection are all named on the listing. These features are designed to stop the device firing in unsafe conditions, though no protection replaces sensible use and proper charging habits.
Pod, Filling and Coil System
The pod holds 3ml of e-liquid and fills from the top. Top-fill designs have a simple routine: open the cap, add liquid, close it. The listing says the pod has a viewing window, so you can see when it needs topping up instead of waiting for a dry puff.
On coils, the listing names compatibility with Caliburn G and G2 coils and gives 1.2 ohm as the resistance for the Caliburn G2 coils. We do not describe other resistances, because they are not stated for this device. Coils wear with use, so plan to buy spares, and check that any replacement is marked as Caliburn G or G2. Our pod compatibility finder helps match spares to a device, and the Uwell Caliburn hub gathers the related pods, coils and kits in stock.
Be careful with one point: the G2 does not use the same pods as newer models. The G4 and G5 kits in our range list GPP and G3 cartridges, which are a different family. Mixing them up is the most common buying mistake with this brand, so read the compatibility line on any pod listing before you add it to your basket.
Because the pod is refillable, you choose the e-liquid, including its strength. That is a cost and flexibility advantage over sealed devices, and a responsibility too, since you need to buy and store liquid separately. If you are weighing refillable against sealed options, read refillable vs prefilled pods for the trade-offs.
Pros and Cons
This table in our Uwell Caliburn G2 review summarises the strengths and weak points we can support from the specification sheet. It is not a record of daily use.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Adjustable 5 to 20W output | Smaller battery than the 1,400mAh G4 Classic |
| 3ml top-fill pod with a viewing window | Pods and coils are model specific |
| OLED screen for clear settings | Needs separate e-liquid and spare coils |
| USB Type-C charging | Button activation only, no draw activation |
| Three named safety protections | Only 1.2 ohm coils are listed |
The cons are mostly trade-offs of the format rather than faults. Any refillable kit asks more of you than a sealed device, and any maker keeps its pods inside its own range.
How It Compares With Other Uwell Kits
The table below uses figures taken from each live product listing in our shop. The G2 is first, and rows we could not verify were left out.
| Device | Battery | Max output | Pod size | Price (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uwell Caliburn G2 (this page) | 850mAh | 20W | 3ml | 100 |
| Caliburn GK2 Vision | 690mAh | 18W | 2ml | 115 |
| Caliburn G4 Classic | 1400mAh | 35W | 3ml | 120 |
| Caliburn A3 | 520mAh | 15W | 2ml | 109 |
Read across the rows and a pattern appears. The G2 has the lowest price here and a larger pod than the GK2 Vision and the A3, while the G4 Classic offers the most battery and power for AED 20 more. If you want a bigger step up, our Uwell Caliburn G4 Classic review covers that kit, and the GK2 review, G3 Lite review and GK3 review cover the others.
Who It Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere
The G2 suits an adult who already uses refillable pods, or who is comfortable learning to, and who wants adjustable power in a small kit. The wattage range lets you set the output yourself, and the screen shows what you have chosen. Buyers who like to keep the same liquid they already own will also appreciate the freedom to choose it.
It suits less well anyone who wants a device that needs no handling. A refillable kit means buying liquid, filling the pod, and replacing coils over time. If that sounds like too much, a sealed option may be easier, and the best beginner pod kit page sets out simpler routes into the category.
It also suits less well people who want the largest battery. At 850mAh the G2 is mid-sized, and the 35W kits in our range list bigger cells. Anyone who expects long gaps between charges should weigh that.
Finally, remember that nicotine is addictive, and these products are for adults only. If you do not already use nicotine, you should not start. If you are using vaping to try to quit smoking, the NHS guidance on using e-cigarettes to stop smoking is a useful, independent source, and a doctor or pharmacist can advise on approved quitting support.
Buying, Delivery and UAE Rules
Vaping products in the UAE must meet UAE.S 5030:2018 and carry ECAS certification, administered through the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology. Check for the mark on the pack when it arrives. Our sales are for customers aged 21+ only, and UAE law may set a higher age limit. Read our age verification and responsible use page for what we ask for.
Delivery works as follows. Orders above AED 350 ship free, and an order of exactly AED 350 pays AED 30, as does any order below that figure. The minimum order is AED 100, so the G2 at AED 100 meets it on its own, while a cheaper single item such as a pack of pods would fall below it. In Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman, delivery takes about two hours between 10am and 11pm, seven days a week, and you can pay by cash, card or bank transfer. Other emirates are served by courier within 24 hours, Monday to Saturday, with cash on delivery or bank transfer.
The full terms are on the delivery and payment page, and the vape delivery in Dubai page explains the local service. Be ready to show valid ID on delivery.
For the manufacturer’s own information on the range, the official Uwell website is the place to check. If anything there differs from our listing, trust the pack in your hand and contact us before using the device.
Final Verdict
To close this Uwell Caliburn G2 review: on paper the device is a sensible, mid-sized refillable kit. It offers adjustable 5 to 20W output, a 3ml top-fill pod, an 850mAh rechargeable battery, an OLED screen and USB Type-C charging for AED 100, which is the lowest price among the four Uwell devices compared above. Its limits are equally clear: a mid-sized battery, 1.2 ohm coils only, and a pod and coil family that does not carry over to the newer G4 and G5 kits.
It is a fair choice for an adult who wants control over power and liquid and does not mind the upkeep of a refillable. It is a weaker choice if you want the biggest battery or the simplest possible routine. Because this is a specification-based review, treat it as a buying checklist rather than a report of daily use, and read the live listing before you order.
