The Suonon Donete 50K is a genuine technical surprise in the disposable category. The Dual-Clear transparent display is not a gimmick — it solves real usability problems. Three power modes offer meaningful flavor customization. The 15-flavor lineup is tight but well-executed. At $24.99, it undercuts most 50K competitors. The main downsides: no replaceable pod option, and the donut shape isn't pocket-friendly for everyone.
Key Specs at a Glance
Design & Build Quality
The Donete 50K doesn't look like any other disposable vape. The donut-shaped body with rounded edges and a transparent center window is immediately distinctive — you'll never confuse it with a Geek Bar or RAZ in your pocket. The PC/PCTG housing feels solid without being heavy, and the curved edges sit comfortably in the hand during longer sessions.
The two-piece shipping design is worth mentioning: the device arrives separated into two halves that click together. This prevents accidental activation during transit, which is a thoughtful engineering choice. First-time users may find the assembly slightly confusing (peel the seal, remove the mouthpiece plug, push the halves together until you hear a click), but it's a one-time step.
The mode switch button sits on the bottom-right, just above the USB-C port. The adjustable airflow dial is on the bottom. Both are easy to access without looking at the device. At 55.5 × 29.16 × 92.85mm, the Donete is compact for a 50K device, though the donut shape makes it wider than stick-style disposables — it fits in a jacket pocket, but slim jeans might be a stretch.
Dual-Clear Technology — Does It Work?
This is the headline feature, and the honest answer is: yes, it works, and it's more useful than it looks in photos.
The transparent display sits directly over the e-liquid tank. When the screen activates (on draw or button press), you see battery percentage, current mode, and a donut-themed animation — all overlaid on top of the visible juice level behind it. The screen uses what appears to be a semi-transparent OLED panel with RGB backlighting that cycles through three colors depending on mode.
In practical daily use, the real benefit isn't the animation — it's the constant juice visibility. With opaque disposables, you're guessing when the tank is getting low. With the Donete, you can see exactly how much juice remains at all times, even when the screen is off. This eliminates two common disposable problems: pushing a dry coil because you didn't know you were empty, and throwing away a device that still had juice left because the battery bar showed low (when it was actually the juice that was depleted).
Three Modes Tested
Most disposables offer two modes at best. The Donete 50K gives you three, and each produces noticeably different results:
Norm Mode — The most efficient setting. Vapor production is moderate, flavor is smooth and consistent, throat hit is mild. This is the mode that delivers the full 50,000 puffs. I used it as my daily driver for a week and the juice consumption was noticeably slower than on Auto. Best for: all-day sessions, subtle flavor profiles like The Mighty Peach or Freezy Banana.
Auto Mode — The intelligent middle ground. The Donete adjusts output based on draw strength and battery level, so a soft sip produces less vapor while a harder pull ramps up. In practice, this mode provided the most consistent overall flavor experience across different flavors. I'd recommend this as the default for most users.
Turbo Mode — Maximum output. The flavor intensifies significantly — icy flavors like Blue Razz Ice and Sour Chill Apple feel substantially colder, and sweet flavors like Fcuking Fab become almost overwhelming in their intensity. Vapor production is dense. The trade-off is real: juice consumption in Turbo roughly doubles compared to Norm. Use this for flavor testing or short high-intensity sessions, not as your all-day mode.
The mode differences are not subtle. Switching between Norm and Turbo on the same Blue Razz Ice device felt like two different flavors. This is genuinely useful and something I wish more disposables offered.
Flavor Performance
I tested four flavors extensively: Blue Razz Ice, Fcuking Fab, Miami Mint, and The Mighty Mango. The dual 0.5Ω mesh coils do their job well — flavor clarity was consistently good across all four, with no noticeable hot spots or inconsistent hits. The larger wicking surface area compared to single-coil designs means the cotton stays saturated longer, which translates to more stable flavor through the life of the tank.
The standout surprise was how well the modes interact with different flavors. Miami Mint on Norm is a smooth, easy mint. The same device on Turbo becomes an aggressive menthol blast. Fcuking Fab on Auto delivers balanced candy sweetness; on Turbo, the berry intensity cranks up to nearly overwhelming levels. This kind of customization is normally reserved for refillable pod systems.
End-of-life flavor degradation was minimal — the transparent tank helps here because you can see when you're genuinely running low and stop before the coil burns dry. I noticed a slight flavor fade in the last 10-15% of the tank, which is normal for any disposable.

Battery & Longevity
The 900mAh battery is the largest in this competitive segment — 100mAh more than the RAZ RX 50K and 250mAh more than the Geek Bar Pulse X. In practice, it lasted 8-10 hours of moderate use before needing a charge. Heavy Turbo mode usage dropped that to around 5-6 hours.
USB-C charging takes approximately 60-90 minutes from empty to full (cable not included). The device does not overheat during charging, and the transparent display shows charge progress. No passthrough vaping — you can't use it while it's charging.
Total device lifespan will depend heavily on your mode preference. In Norm mode with moderate use (200-300 puffs/day), expect 3-5 weeks. In Turbo mode, that drops to 2-3 weeks. Auto mode lands somewhere between the two. The 20mL tank will be the limiting factor before the battery gives out — the 900mAh capacity is more than sufficient to outlast the juice supply.
How It Compares

| Puff Count | 50,000 | 50,000 | 25,000 |
| Power Modes | 3 | 2 | 2 |
| Battery | 900mAh | 800mAh | 650mAh |
| Juice Visibility | ✅ Full transparent tank | ❌ Opaque | ❌ Opaque |
| Long-term Cost | Higher (full device per tank) | Lower (replace pods only) | Higher (full device per tank) |
| Flavor Selection | 15 | 30+ | 40+ |
| Price at VOS | $24.99 | Check listing | Check listing |
The Donete 50K wins on technology (transparent display, three modes, largest battery) and loses on ecosystem (no replaceable pods, smaller flavor library). If you value visibility and customization over long-term economy, the Donete is the better pick. If you want a pod system that reduces per-puff cost over time, the RAZ RX 50K or Lost Angel Mate 50K make more sense.

Final Verdict — Who Should Buy This?
The Suonon Donete 50K is one of the most technically interesting disposable vapes I've tested this year.

The VOOPOO/NEXA engineering shows in the build quality, coil performance, and overall polish.
Buy the Donete 50K if: You want the most feature-rich disposable available right now. You value being able to see your juice level at all times. You enjoy customizing your vape experience with different power settings. You want a conversation-starting device that performs as good as it looks.
Skip the Donete 50K if: You need maximum flavor variety (go with Geek Bar). You want a replaceable pod system for lower long-term cost (go with RAZ RX 50K). You need a slim, pocket-friendly form factor. You prefer lower nicotine strengths.
