Unboxing
The kit is neatly and securely packaged in a white and blue colored dual level cardboard box with a slide off cover. The front has a printed picture of the Autopod50 kit, and information regarding the content of the kit and product specifications are on the back. A foam cutout insert holds the device battery and the pod in place, with the spare coil, and the rest of the content and the information booklets in a box underneath.
The Pod kit I received was in a blue and yellow finish with the 0.25 Ohm coil pre-installed and a spare 0.5 Ohm coil included.
Package Contents included (Standard and TPD Edition):
- 1 x Autopod50 battery device.
- 1 x Refillable Pod.
- 1 x 0.25 Ohm AX2 Mesh coil.
- 1 x 0.50 Ohm AX2 Mesh coil.
- 1 Silicone Protection Case.

(In this instance the test kit provided did not include the protection case in the box received.)
Initial impression
This device is well manufactured and feels solid as I have come to expect from the FreeMax devices, with a smooth rounded finish that sits really comfortable in your hand. Due to the rounded corners and contrast the device is quite a looker, and with no square edges it sits comfortably in the pocket. Size wise it fits the normal hand very comfortably and is not overly heavy.

Opinion, likes and dislikes.
The Autopod50 Kit is a comfortable sized and weight system, with excellent performance and clouds and major flavor to boot, and the XS2 dual mesh coils and Tea Fiber Cotton really adding to the flavor performance. The front layout has a top placed power button, screen with relevant information and the adjustment buttons. There is a USB charging port on the bottom, and yes, it’s a Type C port!
The 6 colors available are:
The kit was supplied with 2 XS2 Mesh type coils, in a 0.25 Ohm and a 0.5 Ohm configuration. With both options flavor was exceptional, providing for a very satisfying vape. The 4 ml capacity seems adequate when you start out, but with the cloud production this is a reasonably heavy consumption setup, but the upside is flavor and cloud that is comparable with a normal RDA or RTA setup. This is most definitely not a stealth setup, and will be great for someone who is looking for a Pod Type system without compromising on big cloud DL and flavor. The pod is also easy to fill, just take it slowly, and not being too dark you can also see the juice level easy.
Battery life was as expected for a 2000 mAh capacity, and I only needed to recharge once a day, but it was used in rotation with my other mods. Airflow was quiet enough and really smooth, and with the adjustable airflow you can have a very airy DL to a good restricted DL draw.
This is a “little” kit that gives “BIG” performance, and any DL vaper will not go wrong if they get one of these for a run around. Combining the ease of use, quality and good performance. I think the added silicone protector sleeve will be a great option to keep it looking great for longer, and I wish I had one as it accidentally dropped from my pocket while exiting my car, a little chip but still going strong. Next mission is to find a compatible cover or make one, and some coils, and it will join the crew on a regular basis.
A sincere thank you to FreeMax for supplying the FreeMax AutoPod50 Kit for review and for giving me the opportunity to do a review on it.
