The IQOS ILUMA i range has three models — ILUMA i One, ILUMA i Standard and ILUMA i Prime. They all use the same bladeless SMARTCORE Induction heating and take the same TEREA sticks, so the choice comes down to design, features and price.
Quick answer
Choose ILUMA i One if you want the simplest, most affordable all-in-one device; ILUMA i Standard for a two-piece device with a touchscreen at mid price; and ILUMA i Prime for the premium finish and materials.
ILUMA i Prime vs Standard vs One
| Model | Design | Display | Price from (UAE) | Best for |

| ILUMA i One | All-in-one (single unit) | LED lights | AED 160 | Simplicity, portability, value |
| ILUMA i Standard | Holder + pocket charger | Touchscreen | AED 250 | Features and value balance |
| ILUMA i Prime | Holder + pocket charger, premium finish | Touchscreen | AED 340 | Premium design and materials |
What they share

Which should you buy?
If budget and simplicity matter most, the One is the easiest entry point. If you want a separate holder you can charge on the go plus a touchscreen, the Standard is the sweet spot. If you want the best look and feel, the Prime is the flagship. All three deliver the same TEREA experience.
Frequently asked questions
