You’ve probably heard of Terea and the IQOS ILUMA series if you’re looking to quit smoking and switch to a healthier option in the UAE. It can be hard to choose the best one, as there are many to choose from and they are all slightly different.
This simplifies everything; no hype or technical jargon. Just an honest conversation to help you choose the best ILUMA device that’s compatible with Terea.
First Things First – What Is a Terea Device?
The latest heat-not-burn technology from IQOS is found in Terea devices. These devices heat specially made tobacco sticks (Terea sticks) instead of burning tobacco. Overall it was smoother and there was no ash or lingering smoke smell.
Compared to earlier IQOS models that had HEETS, this is a big improvement. Since the new ILUMA devices use Smartcore Induction Heating instead of blades, there’s less mess and no need to clean.
