Most of main products available on the vape market prefer lighter, thinner and more convenient design, but their success is at the cost of texture and gripping comfort. As a refilling vape device identified as an industrial product, KEYSTONE ARK X is expected to regain the most grounded, purest premium craftsmanship and industrial aesthetics. Adhering to this guideline, a wide area of the case, including external buttons and airflow control push rod, is made from electroplated zinc alloy metal, so it is given a better metallic gloss and generally looks more reconciled. KEYSTONE ARK X features a bulky, rounded oval shape and is designed in line with the symmetry concept. Uncluttered and rounded curved lines bring out the best of the metal case, so it is likely to impress distinctive industrial appeal on user. This design stresses the combination of form and substance, texture and feeling, which in turn makes the device perceived steady and powerful. A heavier weight makes it gripped reliably, and the bulky, rounded oval shape endures gripping comfort. The symmetrical design allows for a uniform distribution of weight that fits well with the elegance of oval shape. As a result, user is believed to be surprised at the gripping comfort. The bulky size means a larger battery capacity, which means a longer duration of use on a single charge.
