I just purchased this newer version of the Pico Resin and am very happy to have a second one around. I got my first Pico about 3.5 years ago and have been using them almost exclusively for my daily vaping. I got my first resin version about a year ago and cannot stress how much better the resin versions are over the older all-metal styles. The resin version feels lighter and holds together much better than the metal casings have from my use. The resin version handles drops much better and feels nicer in your hand, less likely to get too cold or hot as the temperature changes. I only bought this newer style to have an extra one on hand and I liked the new graphics. Please note, this version of the resin Pico has a glossy finish, which does make it harder to grip than my first resin Pico, which has a tie-dyed color pattern and matte finish. These newer graphics do look quite cool. I am sure the Pico Resin will be a favorite of mine for years to come. PLEASE NOTE, the melo 4 that came w/ my kit is the older style w/o the lock on top, though the lock version is pictured in the listing...just an FYI
