The Best Sex Toys 2025, Tested and Reviewed
Luckily, I have a few tips and tricks to help you narrow things down. “Lelo’s Nea 3 is the perfect vibrator for someone who wants discreet, powerful, external stimulation,” says sex therapist Leigh Noren. Indeed, it looks more like an objet d’art than a sex toy, and is small enough to fit in pretty much any bag or pocket, so it’s a great pick for those who need discretion. Its gently curved shape allows it to slot neatly between bodies during sex. While it’s designed mainly for clitoral use, you can also try this one on the nipples, labia, balls, taint, or frenulum.
With a little bit of maneuvering, it is possible to use the Pulse II hands-free, which could be a big benefit for some men. The Pulse II can also create a feeling of togetherness and shared pleasure for couples who aren’t able to have intercourse. Neither of us had ever seen a toy that claimed it could be used flaccid or erect, and I had assumed this was a bizarre marketing angle. In reality, the Pulse II’s ability to be used while flaccid ended up being my tester’s favorite feature. I’m obviously not personally experienced in the ways of male masturbation, but my tester shared that the Pulse II did away with that awkward stage of jerking off when you’re trying to get hard enough to do the deed. Instead of that pulling-at-putty type of feeling, you can simply relax and let the Pulse II do all the work.
Because the toys are worn inside your undies, you can use them pretty much anywhere—on a date night and beyond—without a soul knowing. “From the couch to the grocery store to the movie theater, there are endless options for discreet indoor or outdoor play sessions,” says G Stone, certified clinical sexologist and founder of Straight But Not Narrow Ladies. If you’re interested in other kinds of sex toys, be sure to check our guides, including the Best Sex Toys, Best Vibrators, Best Sex Machines, and Best Lubes. These days, there are all sorts of high-tech sex toys on the market, from VR porn to teledildonics. But for couples who are physically apart, nothing quite does the trick like a good old-fashioned vibrator. Those who enjoy using remote vibrators during solo play tend to be people who are comfortable with their own bodies and desires.
The Rechargeable is Finn’s favorite of Magic Wand’s offerings to recommend because it is cordless and features a smooth silicone head and quieter motor. Some finger vibrators come in the design of a finger sleeve that easily slips over your digit of choice to make solo play or foreplay as easy as pressing a button (or your erogenous zones). Other devices are slightly larger and pebble-shaped to stimulate more surface area at once. Look no further than a bullet vibrator—the lipstick-shaped We-Vibe Tango X is tops. “[It] offers vibrations that penetrate through the skin to stimulate the entire clitoris,” sex educator Javay Frye-Nekrasova, MEd, previously told SELF.
The look, feel and sound of the dual vibrator was a big hit among our testers, who found it both discreet and attractive. Most importantly though, it provided a more intense orgasm for all testers.

The Dot features a tapered tip (measuring an eighth of an inch at its narrowest point) that offers pinpointed, rather than broad , clitoral stimulation. Made from soft, flexible matte silicone, the Dot delivers vibrations that are intensely concentrated at the pointed tip of the toy, with relatively little vibration resonating into the hard-plastic loop-shaped handle. As a result, it’s easy to apply a lot of intense stimulation precisely where you want. This matte coating has a soft vibrator, suede-like texture that feels pleasant against the skin, though we recommend using it with plenty of water-based lube to reduce friction.
