Of the hundreds of sex toys we’ve tested, Lovense has become one of the brands we recommend most often. They make great toys for couples, long-distance relationships and anyone who enjoys handing control of their orgasms to somebody else.
Despite the arguably questionable camgirl marketing and relentless affiliate activity which has seen their website banned across Reddit, Lovense actually make some genuinely impressive sex toys which connect easily to a fairly decent app and work well remotely.
They’re not beyond criticism. Some of their toys are considerably better value than others – The Domi 2 wand is, in my opinion, an excellent buy for under $100/£80, whereas other toys including the Lush 4 and the Glint butt plug are rather more expensive.
The app isn’t perfect either. It’s cluttered and ad-heavy, the community section can be a target for scammers and it has more features than anybody could reasonably use. We have yet to encounter a vibration-based puzzle game that we genuinely needed in our lives.
But the important stuff generally works very well, particularly the long-distance connection – which you can use transatlantically with little lag – which is something we can’t say about every app-controlled sex toy brand we’ve tested.
Here is our round-up of the Lovense toys we’ve tried, and which ones we’d recommend!

Lovense Domi 2 Wand: Best For Powerful External Stimulation
The Lovense Domi 2 is one of our favourite wand vibrators, and easily the most well-used Lovense sex toy we’ve tested. It’s considerably smaller than a traditional mains-powered wand but still delivers impressively powerful, deep, rumbly vibrations. It’s also surprisingly versatile, working just as well for solo clitoral stimulation as it does during couples’ play.
The Lovense Remote app gives you precise control over the vibration intensity, allows you to create custom patterns and lets a partner take control from virtually anywhere in the world. It’s not quiet, and the battery can drain if you accidentally leave it in Bluetooth standby mode, but these are relatively minor complaints about an otherwise excellent vibrator.
Best For: Anyone who enjoys powerful external vibrations, particularly couples and long-distance partners.
Pros
- Powerful, deep vibrations
- Compact, versatile design
- Competitively priced (around £79/$100)
Cons
- Not particularly quiet
- Not waterproof, just splashproof
- Fewer onboard settings than other wands
Lovense Lush 4: Best For Long-Distance Couples And Internal Stimulation
The Lovense Lush 4 is probably one of the best-known Lovense toys. It’s a wearable vibrating love egg designed for internal stimulation, with a flexible external tail that helps keep it comfortable and maintains the Bluetooth connection. Popularised by cam girls, I’ve actually found it surprisingly comfortable to wear, even when sitting down or walking about, and the vibrations are powerful enough to be noticeable without making it impossible to use discreetly at lower settings.
Where the Lush 4 really shines is partner control. The Lovense Remote app makes it easy to hand control to somebody else, whether they’re sitting next to you or on the other side of the world. Personally, internal vibrations alone aren’t enough to make me orgasm, but that’s not really why I love this toy. It’s brilliant for teasing, building anticipation and creating a little tension between partners. Pair it with the Ferri or Fizz for external stimulation, and you’ve got a much more convincing route to an orgasm.
Best For: Couples who enjoy teasing, long-distance control and internal wearable stimulation, particularly when combined with a clitoral vibrator.
Pros
- Comfortable, secure wearable design
- Excellent app connection and long-distance control
- Works brilliantly alongside other Lovense toys
Cons
- Internal stimulation alone won’t be enough for most women to orgasm
- Relatively expensive for a vibrating love egg
Lovense Ferri: Best For Wearable Clitoral Stimulation
The Lovense Ferri is a small, magnetic panty vibrator that clips to your underwear and delivers surprisingly powerful external vibrations. Unlike the Lush 4, there’s nothing to insert, which makes it an appealing option if you prefer clitoral stimulation or simply don’t fancy wearing a love egg. It’s compact, comfortable and considerably more powerful than I expected from something so small. The vibrations are also deeper and rumblier than those of some cheaper panty vibrators we’ve tested.
It’s particularly good for couples who enjoy handing over control, although I’d be cautious about describing it as completely discreet. On the higher settings, it’s definitely audible, and I wouldn’t recommend wearing it somewhere completely silent. For a noisy bar or a private evening together, though, it’s great fun. I’ve also tried using it alongside the Lush 4, which gives you simultaneous internal and external stimulation controlled through the same app. That combination is rather more intense than either toy on its own.
Best For: Anyone who enjoys clitoral vibration, wearable toys and partner-controlled teasing without internal insertion.
Pros
- Surprisingly powerful, rumbly vibrations
- Comfortable magnetic wearable design
- Excellent app and long-distance control
Cons
- Not particularly quiet at higher intensities
- Less discreet in quiet environments than the marketing suggests
- More expensive than basic panty vibrators
Lovense Fizz: Best For Clitoral Suction And Tapping
I’ve tried a lot of clitoral suction toys and the Lovense Fizz is definitely one of the more unusual ones. It has two heads, with air-pulse suction on one side and a rhythmic tapping mechanism on the other. Essentially, Lovense have made a tiny pink orgasm mallet. However, it does work very well – I had two orgasms in quick succession during my first test, and although I preferred the suction side for getting the job done, the tapping head adds something genuinely different from a standard clit sucker.
The Fizz is fun, effective and works brilliantly with the Lovense Remote app, but it isn’t my favourite clitoral suction toy overall. The suction feels quite direct and aggressive compared with the more refined sensation of something like the Womanizer Next, and it’s considerably noisier than the LELO SONA 3 or Biird Namii. However, if you are a fan of the thuddier, more aggressive suction toys or you’re already using Lovense toys and want to add app-controlled clitoral suction to the collection, it’s an excellent option. The ability to use it alongside the Lush 4 or Gemini makes it much more interesting than yet another standalone clit sucker.
Best For: Anyone who enjoys strong clitoral suction, wants to experiment with tapping stimulation or already owns other Lovense toys.
Pros
- Effective suction and unusual tapping stimulation
- Excellent app control and toy compatibility
- Comfortable, ergonomic design
Cons
- Considerably noisier than some competing clit suckers
- Suction isn’t as refined as premium alternatives
Lovense Solace Pro: Best For Automatic Male Masturbation
The category of male masturbators is a very big one but once again Lovense manage to hit it out of the park; the Lovense Solace Pro is comfortably our favourite one. Rather than relying on vibration or suction, the Solace Pro uses a motorised sleeve to produce a proper stroking movement to simulate sex. You can adjust the speed, stroke length and position, and it comes with a surprisingly useful clamp-style mount that allows you to use it completely hands-free.
We particularly liked that the sensation is much closer to using a traditional Fleshlight than most other automatic male toys and the sleeves from our Fleshlight Flight Pilot and Masterstroke both worked inside the Solace Pro. It’s not what you’d call quiet, and at higher speeds the whole unit can be difficult to hold still without the mount. However, the stroking feels excellent, the rechargeable design is convenient and the app makes partner control genuinely worthwhile.
Best For: Men who enjoy realistic stroking sensations and want an automatic, hands-free masturbator with excellent partner control.
Pros
- Excellent adjustable automatic stroking action
- Includes a sturdy hands-free mount
- Rechargeable with responsive app and partner control
Cons
- Mechanical movement produces noticeable noise
- Difficult to hold steady by hand at higher speeds
- Supplied sleeve takes longer to dry than a Fleshlight
Lovense Glint: Best For Beginners Exploring Anal Play
The Lovense Glint is a relatively small vibrating butt plug with an unusual trick up its sleeve, or rather, its base. Alongside the usual Lovense Remote app control, it has a Touch Motion Sensor that responds to physical contact and can even control other compatible Lovense toys. The plug itself is very beginner-friendly, with a slim tapered shape, comfortable neck and secure base. I found it easy to insert with a little lubricant, comfortable to wear and impressively quiet, with pleasantly deep vibrations.
The touch sensor is interesting, although not quite as responsive as I’d hoped. It works reliably when you deliberately press the centre of the base, but lighter touches don’t always register. It’s also considerably more expensive than a basic beginner butt plug, and the relatively small size won’t satisfy anyone who particularly enjoys the feeling of fullness or stretching. However, if you want a comfortable, discreet vibrating plug that can connect to your partner’s phone and interact with other Lovense toys, the Glint is a genuinely interesting addition to the range.
Best For: Beginners exploring vibrating anal toys, particularly couples who want discreet wear and app-controlled stimulation.
Pros
- Comfortable, beginner-friendly size and shape
- Very quiet with pleasantly rumbly vibrations
- Innovative touch sensor can control other Lovense toys
Cons
- Expensive compared with simpler vibrating butt plugs
- Touch sensor needs quite deliberate contact
- Too small for anyone wanting substantial fullness
Lovense Gemini: Best For Vibrating Nipple Stimulation
The Lovense Gemini are a pair of app-controlled vibrating nipple clamps designed to combine adjustable pressure with vibration. They’re a rather different proposition from the rest of the Lovense collection, and particularly interesting if you enjoy nipple play, teasing or a little light BDSM. The adjustable, padded clamps make them more approachable than the rather intimidating metal nipple clamps you might find in a traditional bondage kit, while the vibration adds another layer of stimulation.
Where the Gemini make the most sense is alongside other Lovense toys. You can connect them to the same Remote app as the Domi 2, Lush 4 or Fizz, allowing a partner to control several types of stimulation at once. They’re also wearable, making them useful for teasing and private roleplay. They’re a more specialised purchase than a vibrator or love egg, though, and you’ll need to experiment with the pressure and positioning to find what feels comfortable. If nipple stimulation is already something you enjoy, they make a fun addition to a Lovense collection rather than a toy I’d suggest everybody rushes out to buy.
Best For: Couples who enjoy nipple stimulation, adjustable clamp pressure, BDSM and combining several app-controlled toys.
Pros
- Adjustable, padded clamps
- Combines pressure and vibration
- Works with other Lovense toys through the same app
Cons
- Quite a specialised toy compared with a standard vibrator
- Pressure and positioning need some adjustment
- Best value for people who already enjoy nipple play
Are Lovense Toys Worth Buying?
After testing all of these toys, I think Lovense deserves its reputation for making some of the best app-controlled sex toys available, particularly for couples who enjoy discreet public sex play, and for long-distance relationships. The Remote app isn’t the prettiest or simplest we’ve used, and I could happily do without some of the social features, advertising and slightly bizarre games. However, connecting the toys is straightforward, partner control generally works very well even when you’re controlling or being controlled from overseas, and the ability to use several toys together is genuinely useful.
That doesn’t mean every Lovense toy is an automatic recommendation. The ones we’ve tried have all been robust; I have been told by friends that the Exomoon lipstick vibrator is apparently less well made with a button that is prone to breaking, so it’s wise to read individual reviews before you invest.
What Is The Best Lovense Toy?
If we could keep just one toy each from the range, it would be the Domi 2 wand and the Solace Pro masturbator. These are the two which we think offer great value for money, and really do the job they’re set out to do. Obviously they’re no good for public play, and the Lush 4 and Ferri are great there. However as long as you know what kind of stimulation you want, and are aware of the cons (eg noise, price etc) you won’t be disappointed by any of the Lovense toys we’ve tried.
Frequently Asked Questions About Lovense Toys
Do Lovense toys work without the app?
Yes. Lovense toys have physical controls, so at the very least you can switch them on and use their basic settings without connecting to your phone. However, the app is a big part of what you’re paying for. It gives you much more control over the intensity, custom patterns and partner control, including long-distance use. If you have absolutely no interest in app connectivity, there are cheaper alternatives to many of these toys, although we’d still recommend the Domi 2 purely for its excellent vibrations.
Can Lovense toys be controlled from another country?
Absolutely, and this is one of the things Lovense does particularly well. We’ve tested the long-distance connection between the UK and the US, and the response has been impressively quick with very little noticeable lag. Both people need the Lovense Remote app and an internet connection, but only the person using the toy needs to own one. Your partner can control the vibrations, speeds or movements from thousands of miles away, which makes Lovense one of our favourite brands for long-distance couples.
Can you use two Lovense toys together?
Yes, and this is one of our favourite features. You can connect multiple Lovense toys to the Remote app and control them together, which is particularly useful if you enjoy combining different kinds of stimulation. We’ve tried using the Lush 4 and Ferri together for internal and external vibrations, while other combinations, including the Solace Pro and compatible wearable toys, offer plenty of possibilities for couples. You can also share control with a partner, so neither of you has to be responsible for operating every toy individually.
Which Lovense toy is best for public play?
Of the Lovense toys we’ve tested, we’d choose the Lush 4 for discreet internal wear or the Ferri if you prefer external clitoral stimulation. Both are designed to stay in place underneath clothing and can be controlled by a partner using the app. However, neither is completely silent, particularly at higher intensities, so don’t assume you can wear one in a silent office without anybody noticing. The Glint is another quiet option for people who prefer anal stimulation. As always, keep public play discreet and avoid involving anyone else without their consent.
Are Lovense toys suitable for solo use?
Definitely. Although Lovense marketing focuses heavily on couples, cam performers and remote control, you don’t need a partner to enjoy the toys. I use the Domi 2 regularly on my own, and the Fizz is a perfectly capable clitoral stimulator even if you never open the app. You can also create your own vibration patterns and adjust the settings from your phone, which can be considerably easier than repeatedly pressing buttons on a toy while you’re using it. The app features are a bonus rather than a requirement.
Do Lovense toys work with other brands?
Not directly through the Lovense Remote app. You can’t simply connect a We-Vibe or LELO toy and control it alongside your Lovense collection using the same interface. This is one reason why sticking with Lovense can be appealing if you already own several of their toys, although it does rather lock you into their ecosystem. If you’re choosing between different app-controlled brands, our guide to the best app-controlled sex toys compares some of the alternatives we’ve tested.
