Notable differences
- Format: On!'s core line is Mini (the only Mini brand on this site), while Fre is Slim — a real difference in pouch size. Moisture differs too for the core line: On! is dry, Fre is moist. On!'s separate PLUS line matches Fre on both format and moisture.
- Strength range: On!'s core line is flat at 2/4/8mg; Fre now runs a flat 3-15mg on every one of its six flavors — well past On!'s core-line ceiling, though On!'s PLUS line (6/9/12mg) closes some of the gap.
- Flavor count: On! carries 10 flavors (7 core, 3 PLUS) to Fre's 6 (Mint, Wintergreen, Lush, Watermelon, Sweet, Original).
- Flavor overlap: Mint, Wintergreen, and now Original all match by name across the two brands — both carry an Original as an unflavored, tobacco-style base. Fre's Lush (mixed berry) has no exact On! match, though On!'s Berry is the closest comparison; Fre's Watermelon and Sweet, and On!'s Citrus, Coffee, and Cinnamon, are each unique to their brand.
