It is a competitor to the equally well-known XPROM50 and XPRO M65 from SMOK. Same characteristics displayed as the XPRO m65 except for the fact that it will not go further than 50w which is more than enough.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

Aesthetically and conceptually we are dealing with the Sigelei leg nothing to say, very well machined. The opening system for changing the battery is just very good. The display of the OLED screen provides basic information, the waves on one side give it a very nice style despite the visual difference on the other side of the box.

Degassing holes are 27 across the width of the box (24mm), a length of 45mm and a height of 96mm.

For me aesthetically as in terms of solidity we are in the presence of an excellent box.

Reviewer's comments on functional features

When I said above that it is a box to compete directly with the mini market type Xpro M65, it is precisely by the proximity of its characteristics to those of its sisters. 

It offers dream performance for a box of this caliber.

The mood ticket of the reviewer

SIGELEI hits a big blow with his new box SIGELEI 50W VR2. A look nice and young, technical characteristics that make it an excellent box.

I loved the ability to vape while charging the battery (passthrough function). This is a very practical feature which is unfortunately lacking in some boxes.

Only downside to this box, the buttons are certainly very good, but their aesthetics, to my taste, leaves something to be desired. We have the impression of having buttons carved in the mass while the appearance of the box suggested curves. A good example of a master box with (once is not customary) a protective silicone cover provided, which is clearly a rare effort made by SIGELEI.

We can also regret the fact that the screen goes out very quickly and that the display time is not configurable.
