14 Best Bullet Vibrators in 2024, REALLY Tested! [Video Review]

Featured imageYou’ve heard it before; it’s not the size of the dog in the fight but the fight in the dog that matters. Well, bullet vibrators are the perfect embodiment of Mark Twain’s quote. These compact sex toys pack a punch and do it so discretely that no one but your lover will know where the vibrations are coming from.

Of the dozens of bullet vibrators we tested, we recommend We-Vibe Tango X as we believe it’s the ideal option for the majority of users. The small, pointy bullet vibe has a powerhouse of a motor with an impressive range of 7 vibration patterns, which we rated better than the competition. The patterns were also the most robust of the products we reviewed; you can feel the tremor even at the lowest settings. With a 3-button interface, silicone-made base, and versatile design, Tango X is an incredible addition to your bedside drawer whether you’re masturbating or using it during partnered sex.

Rachel SommerRachel Sommer, Ph.D., is a clinical sexologist with long-standing experience helping her clients understand and appreciate their sexual behaviors and patterns. She has also been reviewing sex toys professionally since 2016 and openly admitted to tagging a bullet vibe during her travels.

Putting this article together took more than 40 research hours. Besides individually testing them, Rachel went through sex toy forums and customer reviews from sites like SheVibe, Lovehoney, and We-Vibe. After combining her experience with in-house testing from our team (Sandra Larson et al.), research, and user reviews, Dr. Sommer firmly believes these are this year’s best bullet vibrators.

How We Picked the Products

I picked over 35 products for this article, prioritizing in-house testing with more than one reviewer to separate the best from the rest. Some new releases were added, while some products, like Nu Sensuelle Point Bullet, Lelo Mia 2, and Crazy For You Fifty Shades, didn’t make the cut this year. Before engaging my fellow sex experts at My Sex Toy Guide, I developed a list of test criteria we could measure on a scale from 0 to 100, including:

  • Design. The vibrator’s design was an essential facet of the experience. I advised the reviewers to prioritize models with design tweaks like a pointed tip and curved head to enhance precise external stimulation. We also gave special attention to wearable models like the Lovense Lush 3 for people after a hands-free experience.
  • Dimensions. While bullet vibes are usually small, the dimensions vary from one model to the other. We ensured our review samples were small enough to fit your travel plans. For vibrators designed for public play, the size had to be small enough for comfortable wear, even when you wear them for extended periods.
  • Ease of use. The ease of use is critical to the overall vibe experience. The most effective bullet vibrators have an intuitive interface or well-designed handles to simplify handling, especially when you have lube on your hands.
  • Settings. The more vibration settings, the better. We prioritized products with the most settings.
  • Noise level. Most people buy bullet vibes to use when away from home. For this reason, the noise level and overall discreetness are critical. So, we ensured to measure the sound level during self-testing so you can know what you’re walking into before making the purchase.
  • Material. All the bullet vibrators we reviewed had to be made from body-safe materials like silicone, ABS plastic, and TPE. We also ensured the designs reflected the highest level of quality, giving special privileges to vibrating bullets with easy-to-use and long-lasting builds.
  • Battery Life. Besides prioritizing sex toys with rechargeable batteries, I ensured the battery life was positive. The highest-rated bullet vibrators should deliver at least an hour of uninterrupted rumbles on a full charge.
  • Special Features. Among the bells and whistles we considered when picking our test samples, a dedicated mobile app was essential because it presented new possibilities like long-distance control. Others included a wireless remote control to enhance couple play and a waterproof design for exciting aquatic play.

During testing, we rated each test criterion on a percentage scale from 0% (Worst) to 100% (Best). We then calculated the overall score using different weighted metrics depending on the importance of the test criteria. Half the total rating comes from Design (25%) and Dimensions (25%). After that comes Ease Of Use (10%), Settings (10%), Noise Level (10%), Material (10%), Battery Life (5%), and Special Features (5%)

The test panel returned with the findings after the testing exercise and I enlisted my fellow experts to help with the analysis. After what was a hectic two days of deliberation, we believe these are our favorite products of this year!

1. We-Vibe Tango X: Our Test Winner!

We-Vibe Tango X

Why we love We-Vibe Tango X:

Not only did We-Vibe Tango X perform better than the other review samples but it was also the quietest, a feature that made us crown it as the best bullet vibrator. The small, discreet bullet vibe is tranquil yet rumbly, successfully striking a balance and making it the perfect one for any user looking for a powerful and travel-friendly model. Do you fancy clitoral stimulation and don’t want the cliché loud buzzing whenever you want to get it on? Well, the We-Vibe Tango X is for you.

My colleagues were especially impressed by the attention to detail. “The designers made it easy to tell where the buttons are (circled in the image below), so you don’t have to stop the rhythm to adjust the vibrations”, our product tester Sandra Larson wrote in her test report. “Everything from the indented buttons to the tacky silicone material enhances handling. In addition, the magnetic charging point makes it easy to power tango X after use, which is visible in the image below”, Sandra continued.

We Vibe Tango X

How about the motor? Can such a small form factor pack enough punch? Well, I wasn’t sure at first, but Tango X debunked the myth that you can’t pack power in small packages. The motor packs incredible passion for the size, and even with the plastic tip, the rumbles pass through seamlessly without fading away. “I could feel the tremor coming even at the lowest settings, and the power kept improving as I cranked the volume. And with seven vibration patterns, the vibe is easy to customize”, Rachel Sommer clarified.

Our budget-conscious readers will be happy to know that We-Vibe kept the price affordable even with the powerful motor and high-quality silicone and ABS materials. Although the indented buttons and different materials mean you have to deal with the seams that complicate cleaning a little, the designers worked hard to balance several factors and make it the perfect bullet vibrator.

We vibe Tango X

The versatility also stood out during the review. As you can see in the image above, the small size and pointed plastic tip let you use Tango X on other erogenous zones like the inner thighs, nipples, or your partner’s balls and frenulum. In addition, couples can use tango X during sex thanks to its small size –choose positions like doggy style and spooning, which give the arm more breathing room. Overall, the team rated Tango X as the “Most Inclusive” and “Most Versatile” on this list.

We usually prefer sex toys with an all-silicone body, but We-Vibe Tango X’s silicone base was enough to win everyone over. The cozy material felt great on the hand and does a lot to cushion your fingers from going numb. Even when things get slippery, the silicone provides an easier grip. Excellent design overall!

The content of the box

Note: The upgraded Tango X is more powerful than the original We-Vibe Tango. The extra intensity means it’s also slightly larger. In addition, the new model’s silicone grip prevents your fingers from going numb. At the same time, the multiple buttons make it easy to cycle through the vibration patterns without going through all the settings.

Minor issues we found during testing:

While the We-Vibe Tango X remains one of the most powerful bullet vibrators I’ve used, if you need a super-powered wand to climax, you’ll need something more robust like LELO Soraya Wave.

In addition, the combination of indented buttons and two different materials (silicone and ABS plastic) creates seams that make cleaning slightly tricky.

Why We-Vibe Tango X is our test winner:

Some of the standout features include the following:

  • Design: The design balances out several factors while keeping the price point affordable. The testers highlighted the impressive attention to detail, with the multiple buttons (the original had one), the grippy silicone base to prevent your fingers from going numb, and the pointed tip for precise clitoral stimulation. Tango X handily beat the competition in this critical category.
  • Discreetness: The team highlighted the balance between power and discreetness. tango X has a light rumble that’s easy to silence even at the highest settings. Plus, the quiet motor was considerably powerful for its size.
  • Stimulations: The versatile vibe has up to 7 vibration patterns, making for an excellent range of combinations to explore clit stimulation. Most importantly, the motor packs a punch, and you can feel the rumble even at the lowest setting.

2. Lovense Ambi: Our Budget Pick!

Lovense Ambi

Why we love Lovense Ambi:

If you’re looking for a budget and beginner-friendly bullet vibrator, Lovense Ambi is just right for you! The versatile model only costs $59 (on discount), which the testers thought was the best balance between price tag and quality on this list. They also rated it as “Most Beginner-Friendly” because of the sleek and compact size, which, when coupled with the simple and easy-to-use design, makes handling straightforward.

Compared to other bullets it has an interesting shape. Almost like a hammer. But this is all by design since this shape makes it possible to use it for both internal and external stimulation. Don’t we all love a practical design!?

The device charging

The simple and easy-to-grip design was highlighted in the test reports. “The compact size fits comfortably in the palm, and the ergonomic build significantly enhances handling”, Sandra Larson noted. “With subtle curves and angles hugging all the right places, Ambi is incredibly satisfying.

The build quality was another highlight of the review which Sandra summarized in these words: “Ambi felt solid with no cheap or flimsy parts. The care that went into putting together the toy is evident, and with a waterproof design, you’ll enjoy playtime in the bath or shower with this device”. Sounds like a solid design to me!

Closeup of the charging port

Unlike We-Vibe Tango X, the all-silicone body eliminates the annoying seams, making cleaning and overall maintenance quick and straightforward. Everyone agreed that the smooth silicone felt great on the skin; even folks with ultra-sensitive parts will love the sensations. Something else that stood out during the review was Ambi’s ease of use. The control interface is strategically positioned at the base so you can regulate the rumbles easily. With a single button, it’s foolproof.

Lovense Ambi is compatible with our favorite sex toy application (IMHO), the Lovense Remote app (screenshots below). The dedicated mobile application has an intuitive interface that lets you enjoy more than a set of vibration patterns and speeds. We especially appreciated how easy it was to cycle through the settings and the extra bells and whistles like the sound-activated mode and music sync that enhanced hands-free pleasure.

Screenshots from the Lovense smartphone app

The mobile app opens your world to new possibilities, whether you’re in the same room or halfway across the globe. Long-distance partners can send each other voice commands, making the experience more engaging and exciting.

Lastly, I was amazed at how the designers managed to keep the relatively powerful motors quiet. The noise level is similar to the Lush 3 at a maximum of 43 dB, allowing you to indulge in your deepest desires without worrying about your nosey roommate.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the bullet vibrator doesn’t stay in place during sex, making it not entirely hands-free. And unlike the We-Vibe Tango X, it’s a little bigger, making handling during partnered sex more complicated.

Another frustration was the finicky charging port. The magnetic charger is too sensitive and requires precision to start charging. I’ve been disappointed a few times after leaving it to recharge, only to come back and find that it slipped out of place.

Why Lovense Ambi is our budget pick:

  • Design: The reviewers loved the sleek and compact design which was rated in the top 3. The ergonomic build and easy-to-drag handle feel comfortable in the palm. Most importantly, the versatile vibe renders it easy to enjoy internal and external stimulation. Plus, the strategically placed controls enhance the user experience.
  • Price: Lovense Ambi gave us the most value for our money of all the models we tested. It costs $59 (on discount), a comparatively affordable price for the well-designed bullet vibrator. Everything from the ergonomic and versatile design to the simplified controls and extra bells and whistles, like the dedicated Lovense Remote app, makes it a bargain.
  • Special Features: The dedicated mobile app was a highlight of the review and performed better than the competition. It transformed the simple sex toy into a pleasure powerhouse, with features like the Remote Play that lets you invite your partner to regulate the experience from afar. In addition, the Lovense Remote app enables you to send voice commands to your partner and enjoy bells and whistles like the music sync and sound-activated vibrations.

If you want to see what Lovense Ambi looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

3. Lovense Ferri: App-Controlled Model!

Lovense Ferri

Why we love Lovense Ferri:

Ferri stood out among the phone-compatible models because of the Lovense Remote app, the most effective interactive sex toy mobile application. The app’s remarkable user interface and endless customization options make it perfect for different users, including long-distance lovers and public play fans.

We were surprised at how much functionality the mobile application added to the experience. The built-in buttons go inside your pants during public play, so a wireless control was a much-needed addition. Plus, the toy’s high-grade Bluetooth chip eliminates connection issues. (You can see me controlling Ferri using the app in the below image.)

Lovense Ferri and the Lovense Connect App

Unlike the built-in control interface, the app opens your world to new possibilities. “I especially loved the music sync and sound-activated vibration features because they elevated the hands-free experience” Rachel Sommer commented. “With other bells and whistles like voice commands and video chat, long-distance couples can keep their intimacy alive with Lovense Ferri.” The reviewers also highlighted how Lovense Ferri’s functionality and power were impressive for the price and size. With the strong magnetic clip, Ferri clamps into the clit, triggering some toe-curling orgasms even when you’re on the move.

Lovense Ferri’s ergonomic design speaks to outstanding attention to detail. The Bluetooth bullet vibrator felt exceptionally comfortable even when worn for extended periods. We especially appreciated the shape (image below) of the pointed edge because it plants itself well onto the clitoris, delivering intense stimulation for you to climax. The magnetic clip adds to the stability, ensuring the bullet remains in position. Unfortunately, there aren’t as many vibration patterns to choose from. The four preset patterns might be limiting for some people, but you can always create your own and customize the experience with the mobile app.

Closeup of the controls

Besides the limited settings, we loved the strength of the vibrations. Rachel Sommer described them like this: “I thought the intensity was twice as much as other wearable bullet vibrators I reviewed. I’m not as sensitive, and clitoral stimulation was intense for the size. The vibrations weren’t as startlingly loud as anticipated. Of course, the sex toy is not whisper-quiet, but the motor is relatively quiet; you might have to contend with lower settings if you’re using it in a super-quiet environment.”

Pro Tip: Our tester Angela Kempf provided this practical advice: Besides wearing closely-fitted clothes to ensure the toy stays in place in public and you get the most out of the vibrations, I recommend not using lube with Lovense Ferri. Unless you can’t do without it, the extra slipperiness can lead to uncomfortable repositioning as the toy keeps shifting away from the clitoris.

The content of the box

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, Ferri is designed to stimulate the clitoris only. Unlike most products in the article, it doesn’t have dual stimulation capabilities. If you must have dual sensations, I recommend Lelo Soraya Wave.

While it might not be the loudest bullet vibrator I’ve used, Lovense Ferri’s power-hungry motor is noticeable, especially when using it in a super-quiet environment.

Why Lovense Ferri is the best wireless bullet vibrator:

  • Special Features: The Lovense Remote app was the review’s highlight. My colleagues loved the toy’s compatibility with our preferred phone app. Besides the intuitive interface, the app added four preset patterns, making it easy to customize the experience. Unique features like voice command, video chat, and sound-activated rumbles stood out to the reviewers.
  • Design: Something else that stood out was the included magnetic clip. The easy-push fastener ensures Ferri remains in place all the time. More importantly, the bullet vibe’s shape makes it conducive to intense vibrations. The pointed edge reminded me of the We-Vibe Moxie and how close it clung to the clitoris, ensuring maximum stimulation.
  • Stimulations: While the preset vibration patterns are limited in number, there’s no limit to the power. The rumbles are impactful, even at the lowest settings. With a dedicated Lovense Remote app, you can enjoy more vibration settings, endless customization, and special features like music sync and sound-activated rumbles.

If you want to see what Lovense Ferri looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

4. Lovense Lush 3: For G-spot Stimulation!

Lush 3 laying on a bathtub

Why we love Lovense Lush 3:

Next on the list, we have something for our G-spot fans: Lovense Lush 3. The testers thought it did a great job targeting the elusive sweet spot on the upper vaginal wall. The all-silicone body felt squishy and comfortable once inserted inside the vagina. In addition, everyone agreed that the flexible neck enhanced the experience, making it suitable for people with different body shapes and sizes. That’s a big plus in our book!

Let’s start with some background. Lush 3 is a third-generation G-spot bullet vibrator from Singaporean company Lovense. Unlike the predecessors, it has a more discreet motor, a bendable design for targeted stimulation, and better connectivity from the extended tail. Overall some solid upgrades on paper.

How to control the product from the Smartphone app

Something that stood out was the compatible Lovense Remote app (screenshots below). As mentioned before, it’s the top interactive mobile application, enhancing your experience with endless customization, music sync, and sound-activated vibrations.

The mobile app is especially essential for long-distance couples looking to revive their sex life. You can video chat with your lover from miles away, control the bullet vibe, and enjoy exciting features like voice commands. Sweet!

Screenshots from the Lovense Smartphone app

Lush 3 is also ideal for cam site models. The mobile application lets the models take complete control of the tipping experience. With exciting games like Dice and Keno, the audience is always engaged, and the tips keep coming.

Let’s move on to the vibrations, which were among the most powerful we reviewed. “Even without connecting it with the mobile app, the preset seven vibration patterns are enough for the wildest explorer to customize the rumbles to their liking”, Rachel Sommer noted. “I loved the vibration intensity progression from one setting to another, and I thought the notable change in intensity made Lush 3 perfect for different users regardless of the experience”, she added.

Magnetic charging port and cable

Minor issues we found during testing:

The only downside is that it’s expensive. It costs between $119 and $229, depending on where you buy it. Plus, the bullet vibrator is only tailored for G-spot stimulation, and folks after dual sensations will have to consider other models like Lovense Dolce and Lelo Soraya Wave.

Why Lovense Lush 3 is our favorite G-spot bullet vibrator:

  • Design. The testers ranked Lovense Lush 3’s build as the best for G-spot stimulation. The angled body with a bulbous head and flexible neck simplifies insertion and enhances precise stimulation. In addition, the all-silicone body feels cozy inside the vagina even when worn for extended periods.
  • Stimulations: Lovense Lush 3 has seven preset vibration patterns, offering an excellent range of combinations. Plus, with the dedicated mobile application, you can enjoy endless customization, making it perfect for wild explorers looking to test their limits.
  • Special Features. The compatibility Lovense Remote app makes it versatile. Impressive features like the sound-activated vibrations and music sync let you enjoy self-pleasuring completely hands-free.

5. Lovense Exomoon: Discreet & Travel-Friendly!

Lovense Exomoon lipstick vibrator

Why we love Lovense Exomoon:

Want something discreet and travel-friendly? Then you should check out Lovense Exomoon, the most discreet and travel-friendly bullet vibrator on this list. As you can see in the above image, the sleek design includes an adorable and sexy undertone, making it an authentic replica of your posh lipstick Unless you own one, you’ll easily pass it for lipstick.

Besides its resemblance to lipstick, we loved Exomoon’s travel-friendly size. “I travel a lot for work, and half the time, I only travel with a mini-size hand luggage. Running into Exomoon was one of my sex life’s highlights because it means I always have my orgasm buddy with me wherever I go,” emphasized Sandra Larson.

Exomoon and the box

As expected, Lovense Exomoon is not the most powerful model we tested. However, its miniature size and compatibility with the Lovense Remote app sealed the deal for me. Unlike other bullet vibes of its size that usually come with a solo button, the application simplifies handling and opens your world to new possibilities. Everything from more vibration patterns to better customization and unique features like the sensual alarm and music sync makes the vibe unique.

Something else that stood out was the all-silicone design. Especially on the tapered tip, it made the vibrating lipstick friendlier for people with an ultra-sensitive clit (like me!). Lastly, Lovense Exomoon’s versatility is impressive. Its small size and pointed edge make for an all-rounded bullet vibrator. Whether you want to tickle the nipples, inner thighs, or butt, Exomoon does it all!

The device charging

Minor issues we found during testing:

While Exomoon is powerful for its size, experienced folks looking for intense external pleasure might have to consider wand vibrators. In addition, the vibrations are easily transferred to the hand, and your fingers may numb after extended use.

It’s also relatively expensive, so if you’re on a tight budget, we recommend buying the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator instead which costs less than $30 (review here).

Why Lovense Exomoon is the most discreet and travel-friendly:

  • Size: Lovense Exomoon got the highest rating (97%) for its small, compact size. We reviewed many bullet vibrators, but none came close to Exomoon’s convenience when packing for travel. The vibe fits in your handbag seamlessly, ensuring you don’t relinquish your revitalized sex life when traveling.
  • Design: The similarity with lipstick makes Exomoon the most discreet model we reviewed. You won’t tell the difference if you have one back at home. And with its small size and dark color, Lovense Exomoon’s discretion was outstanding.
  • Special Features: Like other Lovense sex toys, Exomoon is compatible with the Lovense Remote app, opening your world to endless possibilities—everything from more vibration settings to unlimited customization and standout features like the alarm function and music sync.

If you want to see what Lovense Exomoon looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

6. Jimmy Jane Mini Chroma: Most Powerful!

JimmyJane Mini Chroma

Why we love Jimmy Jane Mini Chroma:

When I first used JimmyJane Mini Chroma, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Like other compact bullet vibrators, I anticipated a quick buzz on the clitoris to complement my solo play or bring to the bedroom during sex. However, as soon as I pressed the power button, I could feel the tremor through my fingers, and my only question was, “How could they fit so much power in such a small vibrator?”, Sandra Larson wrote in the test report. “The vibrations are impactful from the get-go, and the gradual progression feels incredible.” Let’s dig deep into this mystery.

While Mini Chroma has a higher charge time than the output (it took 80 minutes to charge and 60 to deplete the power), the intensity covers for the little hiccup. “I tested the Mini Chroma against my vibrator lineup, and it was the most powerful”, Rachel Sommer reported.

The content of the box

Note: Jimmy Jane Mini Chroma’s vibrations fall on the buzzy side of the spectrum. I prefer vibes on the rumbly side, but it’s not something I can’t handle.

Something else that stood out was the ease of use. There’s only one button (circled in the image below) on the body to cycle through the available vibration speeds. In addition, it has a handy remote control for couples looking to explore heightened pleasure without stopping the rhythm. The wireless remote control in the image above makes navigating through the seven patterns and three speeds easy.

JimmyJane Mini Chroma

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, Mini Chroma has minimal silicone material, as only the tip is made from silicone. For this reason, you must direct the little edge to the clitoris if you want gentle vibrations. In addition, the plasticky body passes vibrations to your fingers, making your hand numb quickly.

Why Jimmy Jane Mini Chroma is the strongest bullet vibrator:

  • Stimulations: Despite its small size, the Jimmy Jane Mini Chroma is the most powerful model on this list. The review panel gave it a 97% rating, edging out other vibrators we tested for the article. The designers made sure the toy had sufficient settings (7 patterns and 3 speeds) to create an exciting range of vibration combinations.
  • Controls: Mini Chroma has a cozy wireless remote control. Thanks to the silicone body, the tiny controller feels great on the hands. Plus, it only has a single button, making it foolproof.

  • It’s easy to clean.

Cons:

  • The vibrations may numb your fingers.
  • Minimal silicone makeup on the vibrator.

7. Hot Octopuss Amo: Most Versatile!

Hot Octopuss Amo

Why we love Hot Octopuss Amo:

If you’re in the market for the most versatile bullet vibrator, Hot Octopuss Amo is for you! Like Exomoon, it looks like a lipstick, adding to the discretion. Surprisingly, it was more potent than the Lovense toy and other vibrators this size. Everyone was impressed at how much they could do with Hot Octopuss Amo.

The thoughtful design from the designers incorporates ABS plastic and silicone where needed to keep the price down and ensure gentle vibrations. Plus, the well-thought curved tip enhances precise clit stimulation while making the toy ideal for many tasks, including teasing fun and partnered sex. Something else that was exciting was the compact size. It felt comfortable on the hands and quickly slipped between bodies during sex.

Hot Octopuss Amo

The vibrations were stronger than anticipated. I loved teasing my partner’s nipples and inner thighs with the lower settings before cranking them on the clitoris. Five patterns and two intensity levels made up an excellent range. I also loved how quiet the motor sounded. I expected more noise because of the powerful vibrations, but Amo’s rumbles proved discreet.

Pro Tip: Unlike Jimmy Jane Chroma, whose vibrations are on the buzzy side of the spectrum, Hot Octopuss Amo is more on the rumbly side – my favorite.

Hot Octopuss Amo

The curved backside (image above) on the Amo added to the versatility, making it perfect for broad stimulation. I love that I could easily switch between pinpoint and broad stimulations by turning the bullet vibe on the side.

Unfortunately, the battery life could be better in the highest settings. You can go for hours on slower patterns, but the longest you can get when cranked up to max is around 40 minutes. However, the powerful rumbles make up for the limited time.

The device charging

Minor issues we found during testing:

If you enjoy longer masturbation or partnered sex sessions – 40+ minutes, you might have to look elsewhere. We-Vibe Tango X is my top recommendation.

In addition, internal stimulation fans will be disappointed with the clit stimulation bullet. Consider other sex toys like Lelo Soraya Wave if G-spot stimulation is a deal-breaker.

Why Hot Octopuss Amo is the most versatile option:

  • Versatility: Hot Octopuss Amo’s versatility lies in its design. The compact build incorporates ABS plastic and silicone materials to manage costs and enhance efficiency. In addition, the curved tip has a sharp face and a blunt underside so that you can switch between pinpoint and broad external stimulation with slight hand movements.
  • Size: The miniature size makes Amo very travel-friendly. It makes it easy to handle during masturbation and partnered sex. I especially loved how quickly it slips between bodies to elevate the sensations without feeling clumsy.
  • Stimulations: The review panel was surprised at the power. Its collection of five patterns and two speeds render it incredibly satisfying, whether you place it on the clit or tease your partner’s inner thighs and nipples.

8. Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa: Luxurious & Giftable

Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa Silicone Bullet Vibrator

Why we love Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa:

Looking for something nice to give that special one? Then you should pay close attention to the next entry: Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa, which is the most giftable bullet vibrator we reviewed. The luxurious sex toy is extravagant from start to finish with the attention to detail impressive. Everything from the packaging to the individual curves and material choice screams exceptionality. My colleagues liked the thoughtfulness that went into creating the luxury toy born from the two brands’ successful marriage.

As soon as I unboxed the package, I knew I was in for something breathtaking. The storage case in the image below is on an entirely different level and is by far the most deluxe storage case I’ve seen. It protects your bullet vibe in style and includes all the essentials, including a charging cable, manual, and bullet vibe.

The storage box

The silicone material feels incredibly smooth, with the rose gold accents look luxurious. Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa is one of those sex toys that scream to be touched – you can’t help it. If you enjoy clitoral stimulation but in luxury, this one is for you.

Using the stylish bullet vibrator is extremely easy. The experience was straightforward from start to finish. I had to read the brief manual for the review, but the control interface is responsive and easy to understand, so I wouldn’t say reading the manual was necessary.

The content of the box

The motor is punchy and has a selection of three settings. I was disappointed initially with the limited vibration speeds, but I loved how widely dispersed the vibrations were. I think most sex toy users will enjoy the variety.

The squishy head feels comfortable on the clitoris but doesn’t deaden the vibrations. In fact, I thought the extra softness added to the royalty and luxurious feel. And with the silicone body, I was happy that the vibrations weren’t transferred to my fingers, like with other bullet vibrators I reviewed.

The device charging

Minor issues we found during testing:

The one bone I have to pick with the bullet is the price. It costs $109.99, a considerably high price for the compact sex toy.

In addition, the vibe has limited pleasure settings. And while the rumbles are spread evenly so you can feel the progression, three vibration patterns aren’t enough for the more experienced folks.

Why Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa is our premium pick:

  • Design: Agent Provocateur X Lovehoney Salsa’s thoughtful design from start to finish makes it the most giftable bullet vibrator in this roundup review. Everything from the packaging to the choice of materials and shape makes it stand out from the competition.
  • Size: Salsa’s compact size makes it ideal for travel. The reviewers highlighted how its size enhanced the versatility aspect for solo play and partnered sex fans.

9. Hot Octopuss DiGiT: Most Compact!

Hot Octopuss DiGiT

Why we love Hot Octopuss DiGiT:

Hot Octopuss DiGiT’s compact design stands out from the competition. We loved how small yet sophisticated it looked to the eyes and how easy-to-use it felt in the hands. Besides the small size, DiGiT’s design included a finger loop (image above) to make it more ergonomic (Bravo!). We noted that the open-ended loop is more flexible for people with large fingers. Unlike a close-ended loop, it’s more comfortable even when worn for extended periods.

The small bullet vibrator is made from velvety smooth silicone material, balancing a posh look and cozy feel. On the other hand, the polycarbonate finger loop feels sturdy, and the open end makes it even more pliable. I’ve used the toy multiple times and never worried that the loop would snap.

The device charging

It has a squishy silicone rounded tip, significantly increasing the surface area for more accurate clitoral stimulation. I think the designers rounded the tip to make the petite toy more effective. The small size makes it perfect for frequent travelers and vacationers, while the intelligent design significantly improves the output.

Another standout feature was the powerful motor. Of course, I’ve used more powerful vibes, but DiGiT’s felt like it was punching above its weight, an impressive quality for a sex toy. It also has multiple vibration patterns (five modes and adjustable speeds), creating a pleasant experience regardless of your experience.

Hot Octopuss Digit

Lastly, we appreciated that the designers used a three-button control interface. Most bullet vibrators of the size have a single button, making it tedious to cycle through all the settings repeatedly to get back to a favorite one.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The charging port felt flimsy, and I was worried I would break it when I first charged the vibrator. In addition, the charge time vs output time is one of the worst – two hours vs 40 minutes.

Unfortunately, tweaking the settings means messing with the momentum. You have to halt the experience periodically to increase or reduce the vibration speed, which can be a bummer.

Why Hot Octopuss DiGiT is the preferred mini bullet:

  • Design: Hot Octopuss DiGiT got positive reviews from the testing panel because of the classy design that resembles lipstick. Everything from the rounded head stemming from a slim body to the small size and attractive sharp edges stood out.
  • Ease of Use: The finger vibrator’s impressive 3-button interface made it easy to customize the vibrations. In addition, the finger loop added stability to the experience, so you can multi-task during masturbation or partnered sex, ultimately promoting intense orgasms.
  • Stimulations: While DiGiT might not be the most powerful we reviewed, the wide range of vibrations made it worthwhile. And especially for the compact design and travel-friendly build, the stimulations were outstanding.

If you want to see what Hot Octopuss DiGiT looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

10.  We-Wibe Touch X: Most Ergonomic!

A wet We-Vibe Touch X laying on a bathtub

Why we love We-Vibe Touch X:

We-Vibe Touch X’s compact and all-silicone body makes it the most ergonomic bullet vibrator among the reviewed models. The testers loved its unique shape, wide body, and tapered head (image below) because it significantly simplified handling.

Unlike other models in the price and size range, We-Vibe Touch X is made with velvety silicone material from end to end. The grippy surface enhances the user experience, avoiding the annoying slips when you have lubed-up hands.

The ergonomic shape extends to the tapering, enhancing precision. Plus, with the small size, the sex toy slips between bodies cozily, enhancing the experience during partnered sex. I loved the pointed head because it made it easier to hit the sweet spots with minimal hand movements.

Another standout feature was the vast collection of vibration settings. Unlike most bullet vibes we tested for the article, the toy has seven vibration modes and eight pleasure settings. Besides making it easy to customize the experience, the vast selection of vibration patterns renders the toy perfect for different users. I don’t have the most sensitive clitoris, but my colleagues that do point out how the first few settings made the experience gentle.

Lastly, We-Vibe Touch X’s 3-button control interface (circled in red in the above image) was a highlight of the review. I’m not too fond of the single-button control pads because you must press the button repeatedly to go through all the vibration settings if you skip a favorite one.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The sex toy is considerably more expensive than a mini vibrator. It costs $99, a steep price considering it doesn’t have competitive bells and whistles like mobile control and multiple motors.

Some reviewers have termed the button placement problematic. The central positioning makes it complicated to reach the buttons, especially in positions where you don’t have a direct view of the action.

Why We-Vibe Touch X is the most ergonomic:

  • Design: We-Vibe Touch X’s intelligent shape got the highest rating from the review panel. The dynamic design pointed head, and wide-flanged backside stood out from other bullets. With a tapered tip on one end, the vibrator’s versatility made it perfect for broad and targeted clitoral stimulation.
  • Build Quality. The soft silicone material and attention to detail were highlights of the review. I’ve used the sex toy for nearly a year, and it’s still in great shape.
  • Stimulations: We-Vibe Touch X’s vast selection of vibration patterns (7 modes and 8 speeds) makes it ideal for beginners and experienced folks. The reviewers highlighted how having multiple vibration settings makes it easy to customize the experience, especially for people with an ultra-sensitive clit.

If you want to see what We-Vibe Touch X looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

Features:

  • Material: Silicone
  • Length: 4″

  • Problematic button placement.
  • It’s pricey – $99.

Other Good Alternatives

LELO Lyla 2 is our recommendation if you want a high-quality remote control. Lyla 2 has an innovative SenseMotion remote control that responds to rapid hand movements. In addition, the remote is made from silicone like the toy, giving it a grippy finish so that it doesn’t slip from your hands. With endless customization and an impressive range of 12 meters, LELO Lyla 2 got the highest ratings among the reviewed models.

Crave Vesper Necklace took the crown for the best-designed bullet vibrator: The elegant jewelry-like build makes it classy and discreet. With the high-grade stainless-steel material 26″ minimalistic chain, you can pair  Vesper with any outfit. The review panel highlighted how the necklace’s design extends to the customization options. You can personalize the silver bullet vibrator with your name or that of a loved one. Plus, there are three finishes to choose from – silver, rose gold, and 24kt gold. You can find more vibrator necklace products in this article.

Je Joue Rabbit is a decent model if you want a rabbit design. The soft and flexible body did a great job hugging onto the clitoral hood, churning out gentle vibrations from the ears while the stem unloads intense pleasure. Most importantly, the fully waterproof rabbit vibe is rechargeable, so you can take it anywhere.

 


What is a Bullet Vibrator?

A bullet vibrator is a small, bullet-like sex toy. These discreet toys are primarily built for clitoral stimulation, but you can also use them for stimulating other body parts, such as nipples and the perineum. Their slim and discreet design makes them ideal for travel as they are tiny and don’t even look like a typical lady’s sex toy.

But Why Should I Buy One?

As stressed before, 80% of women don’t orgasm from penetrative sex and consequently require extra clitoral stimulation to reach the big O. For this reason, bullets are essential. Notably, these mini vibes have a pointed head and slim body, making them ideal for direct clit stimulation.

  • A bullet is also the perfect first-time sex toy due to its budget-friendly price and non-intimidating and discreet design,
  • Another reason you should consider getting a bullet vibe is their compact, small size that renders them travel-friendly. Unlike other sex toys, these pocket-size vibrators easily fit into your travel plans, ensuring you don’t have to give up orgasms when you’re away from home.
  • Lastly, you can use bullet vibrators anywhere and everywhere on your body. Yes. I know brands market them as the ideal sex toys for pinpoint clit stimulation, but their versatile, buzzy design means you can use one on your inner thighs, nipples, and perineum. And if you’re using it with your partner, you can stimulate his balls and frenulum for an exquisite experience.

How To Use A Bullet Vibrator?

Probably the most beginner-friendly sex toys, vibrating bullets are easy to use. Whether using it alone or during a couple’s play, you don’t need much to pull through.

Of course, the main purpose is clit stimulation, so try and circle the clitoris with the tapered tip to get as much surface area as possible. And especially during self-pleasure, give your clitoris all the love you can. You can tease your labia and vulva in intervals before gliding the vibe against your inner thighs and nipples.

In addition, try different positions and angles until you find the sweet spot for intense sensations. The best sex positions for using bullet vibrators are the missionary, doggy, or spooning positions.

The content of the Mini Chroma box

Some of the common tips when using a bullet vibrator include:

Use together with a dildo/G-spot vibrator

This combo is perfect during solo play. Adding a G-spot stimulator to the experience adds to the intensity, allowing for blended G-spot and clitoral orgasms. If you have a partner, you don’t need a dildo; an erect penis will do 😊.

Try some underwear fun

Why not slip them into your underwear when going about your day at home? Think of it. You’re getting stimulated sexually without physically masturbating. And you’re going on with the day. I especially love it when I put mine on low settings and carry on with the day without telling anyone. Trust me. It’s next-level bliss.

Use it on him

Yes. Tim enjoys it when I rub my vibrators on his nipples, shaft, balls, and frenulum, the small V-shaped junction just below the head. Especially when combined with oral sex, it’s always a great time!

What Is The Best Way To Muffle Their Noise?

Whether it’s your parents, roommate, or neighbor, you would rather them not hear as you rev your mini vibe. Right. Here are a few tips for muffling the noise:

  • Use a pillow or thick blanket to dampen the buzzing sound.
  • Slide them inside your underwear.
  • Wrap the base with a washcloth or t-shirt to arrest noise from the motor.
  • Put on your favorite playlist to cancel out the noise – music or white noise can also lift your mood for divine solo pleasure.
  • Bring it in the shower – check to confirm the bullet vibe is waterproof.

 


How To Clean A Bullet Vibrator?

Notably, cleaning vibrating bullets is easy, thanks to their small size. Unlike male masturbators or dildos, you don’t have a sleeve to run water through or an entire 8″ shaft to wash off and rinse.

Cleaning Sex Toys In The Sink

  1. In most cases, mild soap and warm water solutions will work, especially for silicone bullet vibrators.
  2. You can also use a sex toy cleaner, especially if the manufacturer recommends it in the guidelines.
  3. Use a clean washcloth to wipe the toy and rinse it with clean water.
  4. I recommend cleaning immediately after use – it’s much easier to clean it, and the bullet will always be ready for you.
  5. You might need more time to clean porous materials like TPE because you must dry them thoroughly to avoid bacteria replication.
  6. Most importantly, take note of the seams between silicone and non-silicone materials to ensure they’re clean and dry.
  7. Lastly, store the bullet vibe in a clean, cool place away from direct sunlight.

For battery-powered models, don’t store with the batteries – the corrosive battery acids can ruin the battery contacts and sex toy innards. Use the original packaging or a plastic container to keep the batteries safe. More on sex toy storage here.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How does a bullet vibrator work?

A bullet vibrator has a motor (or more) that spreads vibrations to the tip, giving precise clitoral stimulation. In addition, you can use the device on other sensitive areas, like nipples or inner thighs, to spice up your sex life.

How to charge bullet vibrators?

It depends on the model. Most modern products have a magnetic USB charger that you plug into your laptop or wall plug. Older models have standard USB plugs, while others require that you frequently change batteries. You can read more on how to charge a bullet vibrator in this extensive guide.

Why are my bullet vibrators not working?

If your device is not working, check with the manufacturer about their warranty and return policy. Most trusted retailers have at least a one-year warranty. You can also find more information in our guide on how to fix a vibrating bullet.

How big is a bullet vibrator?

Most compact-size products on the market are about 3-4 inches in length, but you can find some up to 5 inches.

How much is a bullet vibrator?

Prices vary depending on brand and quality. The lowest price is usually around $20, but most quality models are $50 – $90.

How can I use a bullet vibrator during sex?

If you’re using the bullet during the couple’s play, hand it over to your partner and simply guide their hand. Vibrating bullets come in handy during partnered sex because their small size means they easily fit between two bodies, adding much-needed buzz to the experience.

We love using a vibrating bullet during sex because it adds a new dimension to the experience without feeling like a daunting task – you can easily hold the tiny vibrator with one hand and massage your partner’s breasts with the other.

Can I use a bullet vibrator with other sex toys?

Yes, a bullet vibe is perfect to combine with other toys! For example, adding a G-spot stimulator adds to the experience, allowing for blended G-spot and clitoral orgasms. You can also use an anal toy, like a butt plug or anal beads if you’re into butt play.

What lube should I use for a bullet vibrator?

You should only use a water-based lube for your bullet vibe. Never use silicone-based lubricants with silicone vibrators since they can degrade the surface material.
