Lelo F1s V2LELO F1S V2A continuously rates high on the review pages, which is a good sign. It ticked many boxes for me, such as multiple speed and intensity settings, being controlled through a device (like my phone), and being quiet enough to keep my neighbors happy. With my mind made up, I got the LELO F1S V2, and I couldn’t wait to try it and see if it lived up to the hype.

Key Takeaways

What Is Lelo F1s V2?

Lelo F1s V2 is an app-controlled male masturbator and an upgrade to the F1s Developers Kit RED released a few years ago. The differences are blue lights instead of red, a stronger motor, more vibration intensities, and a more pliable sleeve. In addition, the RED version comes with a few extras, like coding gloves.

The packaging

Please note it’s a relatively expensive device, meaning it may not be a suitable toy for everyone. However, the build quality is good, and it has enough cool features to make it worth my money. I appreciate my penis, and if I treat him well, he will do the same thing for me, and we can live a happy life together!

About The Brand

LELO is a Swedish brand that turns sex toys into art. Every product they make could be placed on a mantlepiece and admired for its beautiful curves and chrome touches. Their toys aren’t purely about looks, though; they have spent time creating powerful and intuitive toys that hit all the right spots.

Some of my wife’s favorite wands and clitoral vibrators come from LELO. For example, the Sona 2 Cruise clitoral stimulator sits in our bedside drawer on a high rotation. With over 15 years of experience, it’s no surprise that they have integrated the technology and style from their women’s line to create a hands-free masturbator that looks and feels like a million bucks.

First Impressions & Features

Packaging

I ordered directly from the LELO website, and it was on my doorstep within two days.

When the package arrived, the LELO F1S V2A box was smaller and lighter than I expected. Some of my other masturbators in the same price bracket are bulky and weighty. But it’s featherweight at under 10 oz.

With a matte black box, snakeskin embossing, a viewing window, and minimalist gold logos, I think it’s the most stylish sex toy packaging I’ve seen. LELO’s packaging game is strong!

My package contained the following:

  • LELO F1S V2 Blue
  • Starter Guide
  • A Warranty Card
  • USB Charging cable (No power adaptor)

Design

At 5.6″ long and with a silicone sleeve with an insertable length of 4.25″, the F1S V2 is smaller and lighter than most competitors. Somehow LELO has managed to fit two powerful motors and many other techs inside a super light and compact cylinder.

The main body has an aluminum alloy outer with a perspex viewing window to expose the interior sleeve. The window doesn’t seem to serve a practical purpose, but it does light up impressively during use, which is fun for night play.

The top of the device with the controls

The LELO F1S V2 wasn’t designed to take your whole penis during use. Still, it concentrates on the parts that matter – stimulating the head and upper shaft in tremendous fashion.

Battery Life

Battery life is a whopping 2 hours and takes 1 hour to charge – more than enough time for me to do my thing twice over. Considering how powerful the F1S V2 is, it beats most other masturbators run time by a considerable margin.

A Fully Waterproof Sex Toy

When I first received my LELO F1S V2, it looked too fancy to be waterproof. After triple-checking online and showering with it multiple times, I can safely confirm it’s 100% waterproof.

Having a waterproof sex toy has its advantages. You can enjoy a fantastic hands-free orgasm in the shower or bath, making it incredibly easy to wash under warm water after use.

The Sleeve

Let’s get to the point directly. The silicone sleeve feels good!

It’s ergonomically shaped with grooves and curvy bits that hug you tight against the shaft. In addition, LELO claims the silicone will mold to the shape of your penis over time. I’ll monitor and update it down the track.

High-quality, 100% body-safe silicone is used both for the internal sleeve and the soft-touch interface. Hence water-based lubricant is required. For me, I prefer water-based lubricants for all activities involving my penis. It feels best and is the most body-safe option.

The sleeve

Many masturbator sleeves are made from TPE, which is excellent but does tend to degrade over time and pick up dust and other gross stuff. Personally, the feel of silicone is hard to beat and will outlast any TPE sleeve on the market. The silicone sleeve also dries super fast.

One thing to be aware of when buying the LELO F1S V2A is that the sleeve is not removable but built into the cylinder. Not being able to pull out the inner sleeve may be an issue with prolonged use, as I couldn’t see options for replacement sleeves. Still, the warranty may cover any damage caused.

SenSonic Vibes

LELO has created an exclusive feature called SenSonic technology, which pulses sonic waves to penetrate deeper into your penis than the traditional vibration of other sex toys. LELO uses this tech in most new toys, including Lelo Enigma. And I can understand why – the vibrations pack a punch!

The SenSonic sonic waves and vibrations permeate deep and will hit every nerve inside your penis, especially when you haven’t experienced it before.

From what I experienced, one motor gives you standard vibration aimed around the shaft. And the second motor uses the more powerful SenSonic tech towards the tip of the penis.

All in all, the sensations feel incredible, and after experiencing the orgasms it brings, it can become addictive – you have been warned!

Cruise Control

LELO has integrated its Cruise Control system into the F1s V2, which they use in products like the SONA 2 Cruise. It’s the first male masturbators to use this technology for a male sex toy.

The patented cruise control technology ensures the two motors keep up with your needs under pressure by sensing any strain on the power and upping the ante. It’s like a bit of turbo pleasure boost!

I love this feature; so many toys lose power when you try to go a little harder for the finish line, which can ruin an orgasm. But the F1s V2 didn’t struggle at all. You can also turn the Cruise Control off, but it has no downside. Why would I deny myself the pleasure of a stronger orgasm?

SDK

I had to look this up because I’m useless with computers, but SDK means Software Developer’s Kit. And because I’m so computer illiterate, I think it’s best to quote directly from the company to help explain what exactly SDK can do.

“The LELO Software Developer’s Kit enables you to write your code and experiment with your F1S V2 device, either for your indulgence or to release as an app that others can enjoy. Using the SDK, you can control individual aspects of the F1S V2 device and read from its various SenSonic technology, enabling you to create your own take on the F1S V2 pleasure experience.”

So, if you’re into coding, the developer’s kit will open up a new level of exploration, matching the vibrations to wonderfully erotic games, apps, VR content, and movies.

LELO has gifted the world with an open-source technology that third parties can adapt and build on to create their programs based on sexual pleasure and enjoyment. It has endless possibilities, and giving developers the freedom to do as they please often brings forward the best advancements in tech.

If you are keen to develop and customize the way you use the toy, the LELO SDK could be just what you’re looking for.

How To Use Lelo F1S V2?

  1. The primary function keys are all located on a firm silicone interface opposite the entry hole.
  2. There is a multi-function power button, a charge port, and +/- buttons to control the motors’ intensity.
  3. The interface also has an LED ring around the outer that lights up and indicates which mode you are managing.

How To Control It With The App?

LELO’s F1S V2 app is advanced but remains user-friendly, unlike some apps that are either hard to use or barely functioning at all. LELO has developed a fun-to-use control center that made me feel like I was in the pilot seat of an F1 fighter jet.

The app is an excellent sex tech platform. It lets you control the dual motors separately and control vibrations and patterns to personalize the experience and permeate deep into your cock.

Screenshots from the F1s smartphone app

I was impressed that the app uses the same principle as the rest of the LELO toy product line – simple, stylish, and a pleasure to use.

Here’s a quick rundown on the features of the LELO app, which all connect easily via Bluetooth:

  • Startup guide
  • Control vibration intensity, speed, and power
  • Control vibration patterns – pleasure wave sensations
  • See the amount of pressure on your cock in real-time
  • Temperature (although I think it is just the outside temperature, not your penis temp)
  • Gyroscopic readout
  • Usage counter and progress report for stamina training and perfecting your control and speed presets

My Personal Experience

Ease Of Use

After I charged the device for the recommended hour and installed the high-tech F1S app, I was ready for take-off. Having a hearty two-hour run time gave me the confidence to take my time and enjoy the experience.

The app’s control panel is impressive yet straightforward, and I only spent 5 minutes learning all the functions. The Bluetooth pairing mode between the app and the unit was trouble-free, and there’s some cool animation once you link them up. I would have liked to do this earlier, but it seems the app only works when connected to the unit.

Stimulations

Feeling the interior sleeve (medical-grade silicone) with my fingers, it seems a little firmer than a toy with a removable sleeve like the Kiiroo Onyx+. The entry hole isn’t round but has a flat side that you position on the shaft’s underside. Further, the inner wall has ridges and bumps that feel pretty good. It resembles the outside of a golf ball.

I had reservations about fitting inside the F1S V2; the insertable length is shallow. And the end isn’t flexible like other sex toys. There was little chance of a deep-throat style experience. I’m more of an edging guy anyway, so I stayed positive this would do the trick.

The entry was tight, even before I turned on the vibration. I always use lots of lube with blowjob machines, and the small sachet provided wasn’t going to cut it for my first use. So I always keep a big bottle of my favorite water-based lubricant on hand for times like these.

When my cock reached the end of the sleeve, there was a bit of pushback. I think because there’s no exit point for trapped air. It took me a bit of adjusting to find the angle where this air could release and let my cock stay where it wanted, where it felt at home.

On this, I think the F1S V2 wouldn’t suit larger cocks; I’m around average size, and a smaller penis would have been better for this toy. Any thicker than average, and you may struggle to release the air from the end.

Other Google reviews I read mentioned the entry size. But the tight fit and shorter insertion length seem to be a deliberate design feature. The LELO F1S V2 isn’t an Onahole. Most pleasure comes from action in the tip, without the need for excessive vibration towards the base of your shaft.

One advantage of the F1S V2 is you don’t have to be fully erect. Just a half chub would be sufficient to get started, guaranteeing the action happening inside with SenSonic will quickly take you to full steam.

Settings

Using the app to test the functions is where the real fun began. I moved through the 15 variations of each motor to see how everything felt and I found it easy to use the +/- features to start with and then delve deeper into the patterns as I got more comfortable.

Next, I played around with the different patterns using only Motor 1, which felt pretty good and had about the same intensity as other male masturbators I own. I also tried it as a stroker with the same settings, teasing around the top of my shaft and head, and it felt pretty good. A warning – LELO didn’t design it as a stroker toy, but I recommend trying it.

Once I switched on Motor 2 with SenSonic, the real fun began.

The feeling of sonic waves pulsating through your cock, along with vibrations and a realistic feeling sleeve, is fantastic. It’s kind of like a good rub and tug massage. I’ve been using the LELO F1S toy consistently for a few weeks, and it hasn’t failed to get me to powerful orgasms in record time.

As you become comfortable with the app, you could program different settings for the beginning, middle, and climax – changing the patterns to enjoy a variety of orgasms each time. However, as good as the vibrations are, I struggle to find the difference between some patterns. Maybe because of so many sensations down there, my nerve endings became a little desensitized.

Sound Level

One thing I always worry about with my sex toys is the noise they will make. No toy is silent, but some are worse than others.

The F1S V2 has a gurgling, low-range motor sound that could put some people off. It wasn’t deafening, but there was occasionally a loud vacuum sound when I pulled out, and the airlock came into effect. I tried to keep the pressure on while in use, keeping it from being too loud, but I can’t guarantee my neighbors haven’t heard a few weird noises through the walls lately.

Cleaning

Cleaning the LELO F1S V2 is more straightforward than any other sex toy I own – and I own a lot! It’s designed in a way where all the sides are smooth, with no small cracks or crevices for gunk to get stuck in.

It’s waterproof and can be rinsed out in the shower or under a tap with mild soap or a sex toy cleaner. The Latex sleeve dries fast, and because the entry hole stays open, there’s no chance of it staying wet and gross inside.

For something with similar feelings but with a lower price bracket, I can recommend an Onahole called Magic Eyes La Bocca Della Verita. It’s attractively priced at $25, but not electronically powered, meaning you have to do all the stroking yourself. In my opinion, it’s no biggie, and I had a lot of pleasurable moments with this excellent product.

Magic Eyes La Bocca Della Verita

If you have a larger-than-average penis, you should consider Kiiroo Keon. It can fit a penis diameter of up to 2.1 inches and has similar features to F1s V2, except the SDK. However, it’s more pricey ($190).

Kiiroo Keon

Finally, if you want a product that specifically targets the frenulum, i.e., not the entire penis, I recommend Arcwave Ion from Wow-Tech. You can read my full Arcwave Ion review here.
