Not every vape is a cheap piece of e-waste. https://us.geekvape.com/product-list/aegis.html
I have rechargeable vapes. I have never seen one with a screen and I am already annoyed by the the lights that they all have. I stopped using the one that vibrated because why the fuck would I want that? I just need a cheap nicotine delivery system and putting a screen on it is peak pointless tech imo.
Fair enough, to each their own. The screen is because these can work with so many different coils that you need it for setup. Also, a lot use replaceable 18650 which makes the device last even longer. I've been using mine for over 5 years.
I'm duly impressed that it lasts that long and at that rate the screen may be justified.
From around 2016-2020 the most popular devices were just a series of incrementally adding more pointless shit, which is why it's like that. They're not that popular anymore.
