While the Pax 3’s battery lasts longer on a single charge, it’s definitely more convenient to swap out a dead battery for a fully charged one. Proprietary chargers can also be a little inconvenient since once you’re out of power, there’s no way to get the Pax 3 going again. So, as far as batteries are concerned. The IQC definitely has a better one. Mouthpiece Smartphone compatibility in vaporizers is relatively new, and both the DaVinci smartphone app and the Pax apps allow you to configure and fully customize your sessions to your liking. The differentiator however is that since the Pax 3 doesn’t exactly have a traditional button interface, the Pax 3’s temperature settings and modes are fully controllable and customizable via the app. As with all vapes, it’s best to dump the contents of the bowl while the flower is still warm. In my testing, this significantly reduces the buildup of resin in the bowl of any dry herb vape. If you want to cut down on the mess, DaVinci has dosage capsules and accessories for easy use on the go.

The DaVinci IQC is an updated version of the popular DaVinci IQ2 ( review | buy). It sports several DaVinci signatures such as a lightweight and portable body, LED light display, zirconia pearl, and customizable smart paths. But does have a slightly more rugged look, USB-C charging, and several of the formerly zirconia pieces are now made of durable, hi- temperature silicone. I’ve rated the Davinci IQC a 9.1 out of 10, and it’s currently ranked as my “best new vaporizer” on my best portable vaporizer list. Both devices are compatible with the DaVinci Mobile App with the same functionality. Dosage, however, is limited to the IQ2.
Pros and Cons
Since it is also a small device you’d expect the vapor to be warm like the Pax. But the IQC’s sealed zirconia vapor path does a really good job of cooling down the vapor. The IQC’s vapor was clean, flavorful, and surprisingly dense for a conduction vaporizer. This is mostly due to the zirconia pearl that helps regulate oven temperature and provides a good even vape to the herb. Bottom Line Take care when using high temperature as the vapour can be hot on your lips. The 10mm water pipe mouth piece might suit high-temperature vaping better as it’s like a drip tip so your lips aren’t as close to the device. I adjusted the airflow for each device to be identical in draw resistance, then filled both with the same type and amount of flower to not impact my judgement on vapour density, potency and quality. battery – included in the kit! A single charge will last you about an hour of vaping or five sessions. It takes two hours to charge via the Type C charging cable however, you can buy more 18650 batteries and an external charger and just keep swapping out your batteries when they run out.
A notable feature that’s missing from the IQ2 is the adjustable airflow, which allows users to gauge how much air passes through the device. The IQC doesn’t have an adjustable airflow, which means the vapor will get hotter. But that’s where the adjustable temperature control comes in. Efficiency Mode — the oven temperature increases by 1° every two seconds. Great for saving battery life.

The IQC is powered by a removable, rechargeable 3000 mAh battery and can reach temperatures up to 430°F / 221°C with a 1-degree accuracy. The glass-lined oven has a 0.5-gram capacity and the vaporizer offers an impressive 30-second heat-up time for snappy hits on the go! Precision Temperature Control + Smart Paths: Precision mode for, to the degree control and smart path mode for an easy-to-use, guided experience.
Final Verdict
The mouthpieces and the lid that covers the ‘flavor chamber' are now made of high-temperature silicone instead of zirconia. High-temperature silicone does a much better job of dampening heat even after successive sessions, ensuring that your IQC stays cool to the touch.
Removable / Rechargeable Battery: 18650, 3000Mah battery, up to a 2-hour run time. Carry extra batteries for those out and about days.The DaVinci IQC is fairly intuitive to use, especially when using the preset smart paths embedded in the device. Here is a step-by-step guide to operation: Dry herb vaporizers come in a lot of shapes and sizes, and when it comes to portables – devices are definitely getting smaller. Companies are now releasing products that strike a balance between size and performance. Smaller also doesn’t mean fewer features, and the Pax 3 ( review | buy) and the DaVinci IQC ( review| buy) definitely prove that. These two devices represent the current best of compact vaping – both are conduction vaporizers, compatible with their respective smartphone apps, and come with their own suite of unique features. Without a doubt, the IQC is the strongest conduction vape in my collection for the price point. It's the vape I take into the outdoors and the one that feels at home at parties. Although I haven't taken a look under the microscope, the FDA approved antimicrobial mouthpiece offers me enough peace of mind to safely share with friends. It’s not often that we come across a device that’s an update on something that’s already proven to be so good, and yet have it be even cheaper than its predecessor. The IQC is the revamped IQ, staying true to the quality we're used to seeing from DaVinci, sans all the bells and spare features. Pro Tip: The extended mouthpiece also functions as a 10mm water pipe adapter. How to clean your IQC?
