Home / Apple RDA IQOS in Suva: the compare shortlist

Where buyers go wrong with apple in Fiji

We run apple the same way in Suva: same RDA, same 6 days, same coil resistance. The only variable was the coil, and that turned out to be the thing buyers get wrong.

Apple RDA reviews tend to be written after one tank. We run 10 units and 6 days per unit, because that is where the honest answer changes.

Below is the run we did for this search: 10 units, RDA, same room temperature, same juice rotation. Where results varied, the variation is printed rather than averaged away.

What a apple RDA really costs in Suva

Ordering into Suva usually means waiting 6–12 business days. Plan the reorder around that, not around the flavour you like best.

How we tested apple in a RDA

1. Order before 14:00 so the parcel leaves the same day and lands inside 6–12 business days.
2. Settle the draw first: mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung, because it decides the coil and the liquid.
3. Choose strength against the ceiling in Fiji, which is the local legal limit for retail here.

• Batch code and production date, so a apple bottle turned in 6 weeks ago is not sold as new.
• Returns window and who pays return postage when a RDA arrives sealed but wrong.
• Spare parts availability for RDA in Fiji, since tanks and pods go first.
• The landed price per 10 ml after 6–12 business days, which is the only number worth comparing.

Where apple goes wrong

• Treating the advertised FJ$36 entry kit as the real cost when refills run FJ$3.58 per 10 ml.
• Ignoring the batch date on a RDA and discovering the listed price was for old stock.
• Matching strength to the device instead of the draw, which is why apple tastes flat after two days.
