New customizable features (for IQOS ILUMA i devices):


  • FlexBattery


FlexBattery is an advanced feature of IQOS ILUMA i PRIME devices that enables to use your holder battery either in Performance Mode or in Eco Mode. This feature can be set through IQOS application, and you can choose between two holder battery modes:

1. Performance Mode - Up to 3 consecutive uses without charging the holder, each lasting up to 6 minutes, without using Pause Mode. Or 2 consecutive uses without charging the holder, each lasting up to 6 minutes, and one use with activated Pause Mode.

2. Eco Mode - This mode can increases the lifespan of the holder battery by up to one year (only when fully used on Eco Mode throughout the lifespan of the holder and may vary depending on personal consumption). In this case your holder will be set for a single use only, lasting up to 6 minutes. Pause Mode is not available in this mode.

  • FlexPuff


A FlexPuff is an advanced feature of IQOS ILUMA i PRIME devices that can be set through IQOS application (enabled by default on the device), and depending on the way you puff, FlexPuff adapts to you and may provide 4 extra puffs without charging the holder (within the use time of up to 6 minutes and on top of 14 puffs).
No action is required from you since the system analyses your usage automatically.
If the FlexPuff has been activated, 4 extra puffs will be automatically added to your usage within the use time of up to 6 minutes. The Touch Screen will indicate this.

FlexPuff is designed to work with tobacco sticks. FlexPuff activation and number of puffs depend on individual usage patterns. Thus, extra puffs might not apply to all adult consumers and/or every usage. FlexPuff does not activate when pause is used.

Make sure that the Pause Mode was not activated during use, as it prevents the FlexPuff from working.

You can activate/deactivate these features through IQOS App.
