What are the differences between IQOS ILUMA i, cigarettes and e-cigarettes?

Unlike cigarettes, IQOS heats tobacco sticks and aromatic sticks without tobacco and with nicotine from the inside, without generating combustion. Electronic cigarettes, on the other hand, heat inhalation liquids and, like IQOS ILUMA i, do not produce smoke or ash. What changes is the technology.
