Overview
This Smooth Whale 12000 review looks at a rechargeable disposable vape that the maker rates at up to 12,000 puffs, sold at 2 percent (20mg) nicotine in 12 flavours for AED 45 a unit. It is a specification-based review. Every figure comes from our own product listing, and we do not claim hands-on testing or lab results.
Use it to decide quickly whether the device fits what you need. In short, it is a mid-size rechargeable with a moderate strength and a wide flavour choice, but its listing gives no liquid volume. It is for adults aged 21 and over who already use nicotine. Our editorial policy explains how we write and check these pages.

Smooth Whale 12000 review: quick verdict and who it suits
The Smooth Whale 12000 is a rechargeable disposable aimed at adult nicotine users who want a mid-size device without moving to a refillable kit. On paper it offers a rated 12,000 puffs, a 600mAh Type-C battery, a 1.2-ohm coil and a single 2 percent (20mg) strength. Twelve flavours are listed, and you can buy one unit or a box of five.
At AED 45 it sits at the same single-unit price as the Waka Nova 12000, which lists 12ml of liquid and an 850mAh battery. That comparison shows the main gap in the Whale listing: it states no liquid volume, so you cannot work out the tank size from the page. The puff figure is a maker claim, and real use depends on how often and how hard you draw.
In brief, it is reasonable if you value a wide flavour range and a moderate strength, and less compelling if you want every number confirmed before you buy. Because the listing is short, the useful question is what you would still need to confirm. Ask whether you need the tank size, whether you want a screen or counter, and whether a 600mAh battery will cover your routine. If any answer is yes, compare the Whale with the other devices in the table below, or message us before you order.
Who should buy it: an adult aged 21 or over who already uses nicotine and wants a mid-size rechargeable disposable with a moderate strength and a large flavour menu.
Who should skip it: anyone who does not use nicotine, anyone who needs the liquid volume confirmed before buying, and anyone who wants a larger stated battery than 600mAh.
Specifications and what the listing states
Here is the full set of figures our listing gives. Brand: Smooth. Puff capacity: 12,000, which is the maker rating. E-liquid volume: not specified. Battery: 600mAh, rechargeable, charged over Type-C. Nicotine strength: 2 percent, or 20mg. Coil: described by resistance, 1.2 ohm. Output power: 9.6W to 11.5W.
What the specification list leaves out matters as much as what it includes. It does not give the liquid volume, the coil type or whether the liquid is nicotine salt, so we do not assume any of them. The product description also mentions a puff counter and a health tracking feature, but neither appears in the specification list, so treat them as unconfirmed and ask us before you order if either matters to you. The description heading also refers to a 5 percent option, yet this listing sells only the 2 percent version, so do not expect a second strength.
Offers are one unit or a box of five. The single unit is AED 45 and the box of five is AED 200 across the listed flavours, which works out at AED 40 a unit if you buy the box. These are maker figures copied into a listing, so small differences between batches are possible, and we cannot confirm them without the pack in hand.
Nicotine strength and coil output explained
At 2 percent (20mg) the Whale sits in the moderate band for a rechargeable disposable. Nicotine is addictive at any strength, and a device rated for 12,000 puffs can deliver a large amount of it over its life. Pace yourself, do not treat the puff rating as a target, and do not start if you do not already use nicotine.
The listing describes the coil by resistance, 1.2 ohm, with an output of 9.6W to 11.5W. Resistance in ohms describes how strongly the coil resists the battery current, and output in watts is the power delivered to it. As general background rather than a claim from the listing, a coil near 1.2 ohm at about 10W is a common setup for a draw that feels close to a cigarette, with warm rather than hot vapour. Higher watts usually mean warmer vapour and faster battery use.
The range of 9.6W to 11.5W suggests the output is not a single fixed figure, but the listing does not explain how it varies, so we avoid guessing. A moderate strength is easier to pace than a high one, though that does not make it a safe level, and anyone sensitive to nicotine should think twice before choosing a rechargeable device that is built to last for weeks.
Flavours and pack options
Twelve flavours are listed as selectable options: Berry Lite, Blueberry Pomegranate, Cherry Bomb, Coconut Honey, Georgian Peach, Grape Strawberry, Kiwi Strawberry, Mint Gum, Strawberry Mango, Watermelon Cherry, Watermelon Ice and Watermelon Strawberry. The menu leans towards fruit, with watermelon appearing three times, plus one mint gum choice and a coconut honey option for a sweeter profile.
The long product description names a different set of flavours, including Grape Ice, Omani Mango and a vanilla custard tobacco, which do not match the selectable options. For that reason we only list the twelve that appear in the order form, because those are the ones you can actually pick. If a flavour from the description matters to you, message us before ordering.
Flavour wording on the page is the maker description, not tasting notes from us. If you are unsure which to choose, start with a single unit rather than the box of five. Our guide to vape flavour types explains how ice, menthol and fruit profiles differ, which helps when a name is vague.
Battery, charging and everyday use
A 600mAh battery is the smallest stated figure among the devices compared in this review, so the Whale may need charging sooner than a device with a larger cell. Charging is over Type-C, which uses a common cable. The listing gives no charge time, no battery-life estimate and no indicator information, so we cannot say how many sessions one charge covers, and you should not rely on any claim that a single charge covers the full rated puff count.
The product description says the device has no button and starts when you inhale, but that detail sits in the description rather than the specification list, so check the pack on arrival. Treat any statement about fast charging or cell quality the same way, since the listing gives no measured figure for either. Because this page is specification-based, we cannot comment on throat hit, vapour density or flavour accuracy.
A disposable holds a lithium battery and a large amount of liquid. Charge it only with a suitable cable and charger, never leave it charging unattended or overnight, keep it away from heat and direct sun, and do not carry it loose with coins or keys. Stop using it if it swells, leaks or gets hot. When it is finished, take it to an e-waste collection point rather than a household bin, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
How it compares with other disposables
The table compares this device with three other disposables we list, using only figures from their product listings. Where a listing does not state a figure we say so rather than fill the gap.
| Disposable | Puffs (maker claim) | Liquid | Nicotine | Battery | Single-unit price (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smooth Whale 12000 (this review) | 12,000 | Not specified | 20mg (2%) | 600mAh, Type-C | 45 |
| Waka Nova 12000 | Approx. 12,000 | 12ml | 18mg (1.8%) | 850mAh, Type-C | 45 |
| Tugboat T12000 | Up to 12,000 | Not stated | 50mg (5%) salt | High-capacity, size not stated | 35 |
| Smooth Allo 35000 | Up to 35,000 | Not specified | 20mg (2%) | Rechargeable, size not stated | 65 |
Read the table by the column that matters most to you. If liquid volume is your priority, the Waka Nova lists 12ml while the Whale lists none. If strength is the priority, the Tugboat T12000 sits much higher at 50mg (5 percent), a very different level from the Whale. The Smooth Allo 35000 shares the brand and the 20mg strength but is rated for far more puffs at a higher price.

UAE rules, age limit and safe use
Electronic nicotine products sold in the UAE are covered by national rules, including the technical standard UAE.S 5030:2018 and the ECAS conformity scheme. We cannot confirm every detail of how they apply to this product, and rules on strength, flavours and device size can change. Check the current position with the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology at moiat.gov.ae before you order.
We sell only to adults aged 21 and over, and UAE law may set a higher age or other limits depending on your situation. You will be asked to confirm your age, and our age verification page explains how that works.
The NHS says vaping is less harmful than smoking but not risk-free, and that it is not for people who do not smoke or for children. Nicotine is addictive. If you want to stop smoking, talk to a pharmacist or doctor about approved options. This post is general product information, not medical or legal advice, and we make no claim that vaping helps anyone quit smoking.
Price, delivery and final verdict
The single-unit price is AED 45 and a box of five is AED 200. Our minimum order is AED 100, so one unit on its own does not qualify; add a second item or choose the box of five to clear it. Delivery costs a flat AED 30 below AED 350 and is free above AED 350, so an order of exactly AED 350 still pays the AED 30.
In Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman, orders arrive in about 2 hours between 10am and 11pm, 7 days a week, and you can pay by cash, card or bank transfer. Other emirates are served by courier within 24 hours, Monday to Saturday, with cash on delivery or bank transfer. Full terms are on our vape delivery in Dubai and delivery and payment pages. Prices and stock can change, so check the Smooth Whale 12000 listing for the current figure.
The pros and cons in this Smooth Whale 12000 review are drawn only from the listing.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Rated 12,000 puffs at AED 45 a unit | Liquid volume not specified |
| 12 flavours selectable | 600mAh is the smallest stated battery in the comparison |
| Type-C rechargeable battery | Coil type and nicotine type not named |
| Coil resistance and output stated (1.2 ohm, 9.6W to 11.5W) | Puff rating is a maker claim, not a measurement |
Our verdict on the Smooth Whale 12000 review question is simple: it suits adult nicotine users who want a mid-size rechargeable disposable at a moderate strength with plenty of flavours to choose from. It states no liquid volume and has the smallest battery in the comparison, so it gives you less to check than the Waka Nova at the same price. If you do not already use nicotine, do not start.
Frequently asked questions
How many puffs does the Smooth Whale 12000 offer?
The listing gives a maker rating of 12,000 puffs. It is a rating rather than a measured result, and real numbers depend on draw length, how often you vape and how much liquid is left. The listing does not state the liquid volume.
What nicotine strength is the Smooth Whale 12000?
It is sold at 2 percent, or 20mg, and only at that strength. Some description text mentions a 5 percent version, but that is not offered here. Nicotine is addictive at any strength.
Can the Smooth Whale 12000 be recharged?
Yes. The specification list gives a 600mAh rechargeable battery with Type-C charging. No charge time or battery-life figure is stated, so we cannot say how long one charge lasts.
How fast is delivery and what does it cost?
Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman orders arrive in about 2 hours, 10am to 11pm, 7 days a week. Other emirates get courier delivery within 24 hours, Monday to Saturday. Delivery is AED 30 below AED 350 and free above it, with a minimum order of AED 100.
