They may look like travel shampoo bottles and smell like bubblegum, but after a few hundred puffs, some disposable, electronic cigarettes and vape pods release higher amounts of toxic metals than older e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes, according to a study from the University of California, Davis. For example, one of the disposable e-cigarettes studied released more lead during a day’s use than nearly 20 packs of traditional cigarettes.
TL;DR: Small study of only 3 out of 100 brands on the market, so limited inference can be drawn but cheap construction leaches toxic substances into the liquid in ways that older non-disposable vapes don’t. In terms of health risk non-disposable vapes are best followed by a tie between traditional cigarettes and disposable vapes.

The particular brands are Elf Bar, Flum, and EscoBar
Edit addendum: heavy metals supposedly came from non heating elements
