  1. Health Impacts:
  Cigarettes:
  
  Contains over 7,000 chemicals, of which hundreds are toxic and about 70 can cause cancer.
  The combustion of tobacco produces tar, which is harmful to the lungs.
  Associated with multiple health problems including cancers (lung, throat, mouth, and others), cardiovascular diseases, and respiratory diseases.
  Vaping:
  
  Contains fewer toxins than cigarettes, but still has harmful substances like nicotine, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde.
  Does not produce tar as there is no combustion.
  Some studies suggest that vaping may be less harmful than smoking, but it is not risk-free. Potential harms include lung injury, heart problems, and addiction.
  2. Nicotine Consumption:
  Cigarettes:
  
  A single cigarette typically contains about 8 to 20mg of nicotine, but only delivers about 1 to 2mg of nicotine to the smoker.
  Vaping:
  
  The amount of nicotine in vaping liquids can vary. Some e-liquids can contain as much nicotine as a whole pack of cigarettes. The actual nicotine intake depends on the product and the user's vaping habits.
  3. Flavors & Aesthetics:
  Cigarettes:
  
  Limited to tobacco and menthol in many countries.
  Vaping:
  
  Comes in a plethora of flavors ranging from classic tobacco to fruit, dessert, and more.
  Customizable devices and aesthetics.
  4. Cost:
  Cigarettes:
  
  Prices vary by country and region due to taxes and other factors.
  Vaping in Pakistan:
  
  Vaping can initially seem more expensive due to the cost of the device. However, over time, it can be cheaper than continuously buying cigarettes, depending on usage and local prices.
  As of my last update in 2022, vaping products and e-liquids were available in Pakistan, but prices varied depending on the product, brand, and location.
  5. Maintenance:
  Cigarettes:
  
  Disposable. Used once and discarded.
  Vaping:
  
  Requires maintenance, such as charging batteries, replacing coils or pods, and refilling e-liquid.
  6. Environmental Impact:
  Cigarettes:
  
  Cigarette butts are a significant environmental concern as they are non-biodegradable and litter landscapes worldwide.
  Vaping:
  
  Batteries, coils, and e-liquid bottles can also contribute to environmental waste if not properly recycled or disposed of.
  7. Addiction Potential:
  Both cigarettes and vapes deliver nicotine, which is addictive. While some people use vapes to help quit smoking, others can become addicted to vaping.
  
  8. Regulation & Acceptance:
  Regulation varies by country. Some countries have banned vaping or e-liquids with nicotine. Public acceptance also varies, with some viewing vaping as a healthier alternative to smoking, while others see it as another form of a harmful habit.
  
  In conclusion, while vaping is often perceived as a less harmful alternative to smoking, it's not without risks. It's essential to remain informed about the latest research and make decisions based on one's health and well-being.
