Oxbar has moved from a name few UAE vapers recognised two years ago to one of the most spec-forward disposable Vape brands on the market — largely on the back of three devices: the Magic Maze 2.0 for cloud chasers, the Ice-Nic Control 35K for vapers who want to dial in their exact experience, and the Astro Maze 50K for anyone who genuinely needs weeks of runtime per device. This guide walks through what each one actually does, how they differ, and which fits which type of vaper.
Oxbar in the UAE: Brand Overview
Oxbar was founded in 2021 in Shenzhen by Shenzhen Xiaohengyu Technology — later than most of the established disposable brands (Elf Bar, HQD, Lost Mary), which is part of why its lineup skips a lot of the outdated designs still holding shelf space in other brands' catalogues. Instead of building an entry-tier device and iterating upward, Oxbar entered the market with premium-tier specifications as the baseline: adjustable airflow, adjustable wattage, and customisable ice/nicotine levels aren't premium features in the Oxbar range — they're standard.
That "everything adjustable" positioning is what makes Oxbar different in the UAE market. Most disposable brands here still ship fixed-output devices; Oxbar's three main models each offer at least one axis of user customisation, which appeals to vapers who came from mod setups and don't want to lose that control just because they've switched to disposables.

Oxbar Magic Maze 2.0
The Magic Maze 2.0 is Oxbar's most-recognised device globally and the model most UAE vapers meet first. At 30,000 puffs with adjustable wattage and adjustable airflow, it sits in the sweet spot between mainstream disposable convenience and mod-level customisation. That combination is why it's currently the "Standout for Cloud Chasers" pick in our Pillar roundup — cloud volume on most disposables is fixed by the manufacturer's coil and airflow design, but the Magic Maze 2.0 lets you dial both to preference.
The Magic Maze range also runs a wider flavour library than most Oxbar devices — 29 flavours across fruit, ice, and dessert profiles in the current global range, though UAE stock typically carries a subset of that. The design leans more considered than flashy: a compact form factor that doesn't announce itself the way some ultra-high-capacity flagships do.
Standout features:
-
Adjustable wattage — dial cloud volume and throat hit strength up or down
-
Adjustable airflow — tighter MTL-style draw or looser DTL-style pull
-
USB-C rechargeable
-
Mesh coil consistency across the full 30,000-puff run
Ideal for: Vapers coming from mod setups who don't want to lose customisation. Anyone who cares as much about cloud output as flavour. Users who want a premium disposable without jumping straight to the 50K+ endurance tier.
Not ideal for: Vapers who find feature complexity distracting and just want a draw-and-go device.
Oxbar Ice-Nic Control 35K
The Ice-Nic Control 35K is the device Oxbar built to solve two specific problems most disposable vapers have quietly accepted as fixed. First, the "ice" intensity on most disposables is calibrated at the factory — you get whatever cooling level the brand decided on, which can range from barely noticeable to overwhelming depending on the SKU. Second, nicotine strength is locked at purchase — a 50mg device is 50mg for its entire life, even if you'd rather step down over time.
The Ice-Nic Control 35K adds independent adjustment for both. You can dial the ice cooling from subtle to intense based on climate, time of day, or personal preference, and separately adjust nicotine intensity as you use the device. Oxbar has marketed this as a first-of-its-kind adjustable ice+nicotine disposable — that positioning may be more about marketing framing than industry-first status, but the underlying feature is genuinely different from what other UAE brands ship.
Standout features:
-
Independent ice cooling adjustment
-
Adjustable nicotine intensity
-
35,000 puffs, rechargeable
-
Consistent flavour across the range thanks to Oxbar's coil engineering
Ideal for: Vapers who want to actively step down nicotine over time without switching devices. UAE vapers who find fixed-cooling devices either too mild in high summer or too aggressive in cooler months. Anyone who found the Magic Maze's wattage/airflow adjustment appealing but wants nicotine control on top.
Not ideal for: Vapers who prefer a fixed, predictable experience and see adjustment as complexity rather than value.
Oxbar Astro Maze 50K
The Astro Maze 50K is Oxbar's endurance flagship — 50,000 puffs, rechargeable, with the same coil and flavour consistency the range is known for stretched across genuinely weeks-to-months of runtime for even heavy daily vapers. At this capacity, it sits alongside the Waka Blade 50K, Waka Blast 50K, and Fummo King 50K in the current UAE ultra-high-puff tier — the group of devices redefining what "long-lasting" means in the disposable category.
The Astro Maze 50K is less about specific adjustable features than the other two Oxbars — its selling point is the raw endurance combined with Oxbar's coil consistency (so you're actually getting flavour through all 50,000 puffs, not just the first half). The cost-per-puff maths on a device like this beats every mid-range model comfortably if you're a heavy daily user.
Standout features:
-
50,000 puffs
-
Rechargeable, USB-C
-
Consistent flavour output across the full capacity
-
Positioned as an alternative to Waka Blade/Blast and Fummo King at the same tier
Ideal for: Heavy daily vapers who've settled on their preferred flavours and want maximum runtime per device. Anyone tired of replacing mid-tier disposables weekly. Vapers who prioritise cost-per-puff over feature customisation.
Not ideal for: Light or moderate vapers — 50K puffs on light use means the flavour and battery may degrade before you've genuinely finished the device.
Which Oxbar Should You Choose?
The decision usually comes down to what you want the device to do beyond just delivering nicotine:
If you want to shape the vape itself — Magic Maze 2.0 for wattage/airflow control, Ice-Nic Control 35K if you specifically care about cooling intensity and nicotine step-down.
If you want maximum runtime and don't need feature customisation — Astro Maze 50K.
If you're moderate to average in vaping frequency and want a strong all-around device — Magic Maze 2.0 is the safest default.
If you're a heavy daily vaper who's found your preferred flavour — Astro Maze 50K delivers the cost-per-puff advantage a 30K or 35K device can't match.

Buying Authentic Oxbar in the UAE
Oxbar devices sold legally in the UAE should carry ECAS registration through MoIAT and include Oxbar's authentication markings on the packaging. As with any premium-positioned brand, counterfeit Oxbar devices circulate — a Magic Maze 2.0 or Astro Maze 50K priced significantly below the mainstream market rate is almost always a signal to check verification codes before buying rather than a legitimate discount.
Buying from a licensed UAE retailer, rather than an unofficial reseller, remains the reliable way to confirm the device matches the puff count, adjustable features, and battery capacity on the label.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the Magic Maze 2.0 and Astro Maze 50K?
Magic Maze 2.0 offers 30,000 puffs with adjustable wattage and airflow — designed for vapers who want customisation over cloud output and draw style. Astro Maze 50K delivers 50,000 puffs without adjustable features, prioritising raw endurance instead. Choose based on whether feature customisation or maximum runtime matters more.
Is Oxbar's Ice-Nic Control 35K really the first adjustable ice+nicotine vape?
Oxbar markets it that way, and the combined ice + nicotine adjustment is genuinely different from what most competing brands ship. Whether it's truly an industry first or the earliest widely-distributed version depends on how strictly you define "first" — either way, the feature set is real and the differentiator is meaningful.
Which Oxbar has the most puffs?
Within the three headline models covered here, the Astro Maze 50K at 50,000 puffs. Oxbar also produces the Maglink Nixodine 75K in other markets, which sits above the Astro Maze if the ultra-high-puff tier is available in the UAE.
Is Oxbar a good vape brand?
Oxbar has built a strong reputation on customisation features (adjustable wattage, airflow, ice, and nicotine across its range) and coil consistency, and independent reviews consistently rank the Magic Maze 2.0 among the top disposables globally in its puff-count tier.
Are Oxbar vapes legal in the UAE?
Yes, provided the device is ECAS-registered through MoIAT and purchased from a licensed retailer by someone 18 or older.
Final Thoughts
Oxbar's three headline UAE devices each solve a different problem: Magic Maze 2.0 for vapers who want control, Ice-Nic Control 35K for those who want customisable cooling and nicotine, and Astro Maze 50K for anyone who just wants their disposable to last. Match the model to what actually matters to you — feature customisation, cost-per-puff, or specific adjustment axes — rather than defaulting to the highest puff count.
