14 Best Long Distance Sex Toys in 2024, REALLY Tested! [Video]

Featured imageIf you’ve ever been in a long-distance relationship, you know they require much work. Things such as trust, communication, and honesty are significant factors. And, of course, sex and intimacy. Thankfully, today’s couples have it easier. Now there’s an umbrella of remote control products called teledildonics developed specifically for couples in a distant relationship.

After using teledildonics toys for the last 10 years, we recommend the Onyx+ & Pearl2 kit from Kiiroo. Our testers felt the synchronization, ease of use, build quality, and VR content was better than the competition and we believe the kit will be a solid buy.

Key Takeaways

For Couples: Onyx+ & Pearl2
Kiiroo Couple SetThe Kiiroo Couple Set is our favorite long-distance sex toy. The synchronizations, stimulations, ease of use, and build quality were all better than the competition. They were also easier to set up than with other products we tested.


Budget Pick: Lovense Max 2 & Nora

For Women: Lush 3

Why You Should Trust Us

Rachel SommerHi, I am Rachel Sommer and I am a full-time sexuality researcher and sex toy tester. I’ve blogged about sex toys since 2010 and participated in numerous sex health programs to promote safe sex for people of all ages. In 2016, I co-founded My Sex Toy Guide with Tim and Sandra Larson, and since then, we’ve tested hundreds of products, including dozens of long-distance and remote-controlled toys.

This article took 120 hours to put together. I want to thank my excellent product test team which consisted of Tim Larson, Sandra Larson, Shane Davis, and myself who spent many weekdays (and weekends!) on this project. Based on our many years of experience as objective and honest reviewers, we are confident that the below products are this year’s highest-rated long-distance sex toys.

I love hearing from my readers, so if you have questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. You can call me at +1 307-372-3895 or send an email to [email protected]. I typically respond in 1-2 business days.

 


How We Picked The Products

We want to make life easy for our readers. Therefore, we first defined various categories we believed would be useful for this niche, such as Overall Test Winner, Budget Pick, High-Tech, Same-Sex, etc. In the past, we’ve received great feedback for this approach because it makes it easy for them to find a suitable product since everyone has different requirements and budgets.

Then we identified several test criteria that we could measure on a scale from 0 to 100. For these long-distance sex toys, we identified the following 14 test criteria:

  • Device Compatibility: This will have the highest priority given that compatibility issues can cause anticlimactic experiences, and we know how frustrating that is. We dove deep into each toy’s ability to play nice with different gadgets. Because in a world where everything’s connected, your pleasure toys shouldn’t be the odd ones out.
  • Build Quality & Design: Quality and design aren’t just fancy words; they’re the backbone of a great experience. We scrutinized every curve, every material. After all, these toys aren’t just tools; they’re the luxury vehicles of pleasure, designed to take you places.
  • Synchronization: Syncing is where the magic happens, or should we say, where it’s felt (if you know, you know). We tested toys that synchronize like they’re mind readers, making those miles apart feel like inches. And isn’t that what’s important?
  • Connection Stability: Ever had a video call drop at the worst moment? Yeah, we hate that too. So, we made sure these toys kept a strong and unwavering connection. Because in the heat of the moment, the only thing that should be lost is yourselves.
  • Realism: We’re talking about a realism that blurs the lines between tech and touch. We sought out toys that feel so real, you might just forget you’re holding a gadget. Because who says you can’t have genuine intimacy from a distance?
  • Power: Power is a delicate dance. We searched for toys that strike that perfect balance – strong enough to make you weak at the knees, yet subtle enough to keep things intriguing.
  • Settings: Customization is king. We favored toys that let you be the DJ of your own pleasure party. Easy adjustments mean you’re always just a click away from your perfect setting.
  • Ease of Use: I know most of you will agree that pleasure shouldn’t be a puzzle. We gave thumbs up to the toys that are as easy to use as they are more inclusive. Because let’s face it, when it comes to self-love, simplicity is part of the charm.
  • Controls: Whether it’s a swipe, a press, or a tap, having control should be effortless. We loved toys that let you steer your pleasure course with ease and we rewarded them with a higher score compared to others.
  • Price & Value: We get it, budgets are a thing. But so is pleasure. Our testers scoured for toys that offer the best of both worlds – luxury experiences without the luxury price tags. Everyone deserves a bit of indulgence.
  • Virtual Reality: For those looking to step into the future of pleasure, we tested VR-ready toys. It’s like having a first-class ticket to a world where your fantasies come alive. Reality? Overrated.
  • Battery Life: Long battery life is the unsung hero of uninterrupted pleasure and this is an underrated criterion. So our experts made sure to pick toys that last longer than your favorite binge-watch. Because nobody wants a “low battery” alert spoiling the climax.
  • Noise Level: We know discretion can be as important as the pleasure itself. For our conspicuous kinksters out there, we made sure our top picks are the silent types – powerful but hush-hush, perfect for your preference.

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 Synchronization (25%) and Realism (25%). After that comes Ease of Use (10%), Design (10%), and Stimulations (5%).

Finally, we spent many hours researching forums (Reddit, Quora, etc.), reading customer reviews (Amazon, Lovehoney, etc.), and interviewing other sex toy testers to identify the highest-rated models for each category, which we then put to the test using our well-defined review process.

Highest-Rated Couples Products

Let’s start with the most popular long-distance products which are toys that let couples feel more intimate despite being far apart. The two standout products in this niche are from Kiiroo and Lovense, both of which are solid buys but we believe they target slightly different consumers. Let’s dive into the details:

1. Kiiroo Onyx+ and Pearl 2: Our Overall Test Winner!

Kiiroo ONYX+ and Pearl2 Couples Kit

Kiiroo Onyx+ and Pearl 2 are this year’s best long-distance sex toys. Our testers thought they performed better than the other bundles, especially with the synchronization part. We also rated it as the “Easiest to Use” and “Most Solid Build” with everyone reporting that the setup and overall usage were straightforward.

Let’s start with the penis toy, the Onyx+ male masturbator which has a compact design complemented by a unique masturbation sleeve with ten contracting rings. “Unlike most masturbators, it simulates oral sex with simultaneous side by side and up and down thrusting motions”, our lead product tester Shane Davis wrote in his test report. “With an impressive 140 stokes/minute top speed, the Onyx+ is just as intense as it is realistic”, Shane continued. You can see what Onyx+ looks like in the image below.

Onyx+

Something else we liked about Kiiroo Onyx+ was that it came with three replacement sleeves, so you can choose between the standard or tight fit options to ensure you get the right size.

Let’s move on to Kiiroo Pearl 2, a technologically advanced vibrator for our vagina owners that features a slightly curved shaft to target your sweet spots. The powerful motor and full-on silicone material make for an incredible internal massager. You can see Pearl2 in the image below.

Pearl2

Kiiroo Onyx+ and Pearl2 connect with the help of a dedicated mobile app so you can enjoy shared sensations. The dedicated mobile app primarily features multiple vibration settings and further simplifies long-distance control.

Thanks to teledildonics technology, the vibrator’s high-tech sensors transfer the rumbles to your lover’s Onyx+ through strokes. On the other hand, your lover can use the touchpad on the Onyx+ to regulate the Pearl 2’s vibrations.

Even without the app, the Onyx+ has three vibration patterns, while the Pearl 2 has nine to choose from, meaning you’ll have a wide range of combinations to explore. Both products are USB-rechargeable with a decent one-hour output on a full charge.

Why the Kiiroo Kit is the most effective long-distance sex toys: They are well-made with body-safe materials, and connecting them was more straightforward than other products we tested. In addition, our test panel reported that they relayed the partner movements better than other bundles. Finally, they’re USB rechargeable, easy to use, have LGBTQ+ friendly options, and are VR-compatible for wild explorers.

If you want to see how the movements are synchronized between the two devices, please check out our demonstration video below:

Kiiroo Onyx+:

  • Material: ABS, POM,
  • Insertable Length: 6.5″
  • Diameter: 1.18 – 1.69″

Pearl 2:

  • Material: ABS, Silicone
  • Insertable Length: 5.25″
  • Diameter: 1.125″

Pros:

  • The most recommended kit for long-distance couples.
  • A dedicated mobile app offers more vibration settings.
  • Onyx+’s contracting rings simulate a blowjob.
  • Pearl 2’s high-tech sensors transfer the rumbles to your lover’s Onyx+.
  • Body-safe silicone and ABS materials.
  • Extra bells and whistles – rechargeable and VR compatibility.

Cons:

  • The combo is expensive – $289.
  • 4 hours of charging for 1-hour output is not great – Onyx+.

Update: Seeing the positive response, we went out of our way to negotiate a special deal with Kiiroo for you! If you buy the couple set using the Kiiroo link below, you get a 10% discount at checkout!

2. Lovense Max 2 and Nora: Our Budget Pick!

Lovense Couple Set

The only negative thing about the Kiiroo kit above is the price tag. So if you are low on cash we highly recommend this bundle from Lovense, which has a lower price but will still provide a great experience. The only minor flaw we found was the video quality, but if you can live with that, it’s a solid purchase.

Lovense Max 2 is the male toy featuring a throat simulator with 360-degree contractions that vibrate, suck, and contract the penis for a full-on, intense experience. “The male masturbator‘s multi-sensation sleeve is complemented by seven vibration and three contraction settings, providing you with multiple pleasure settings to explore”, Tim Larson reported. “Other notable features include the suction-regulating air vent, the quick-release valve, and easy-to-use buttons”, Tim added. You can see what Max 2 looks like in the image below.

Lovense Max 2 inside the box

The Lovense Max 2 connects with the lovely Nora using the Lovense remote app. “The rabbit vibrator has a rotating head and flexible arm for internal and external stimulation”, Sandra Larson told me “With three speeds on the main arm and seven on the clitoris spotter, I found Nora by Lovense to be an exciting dual-function vibrator”, She added.

Besides the ridged shaft and tapered tip to enhance G-spot stimulation, our testers appreciated the rotating head. “Unlike most other vibes, it massages my sweet spots diligently and precisely targets them”, Sandra Larson pointed out. You can see Nora in the image below.

Lovense Nora

A special shoutout to the Lovense Remote app that makes long-distance romance straightforward. The testers pointed out that it provides more vibration combinations than the Kiiroo app; even if it’s solo play, you can use it to regulate your sex toy.

The team reported that the two models worked almost perfectly when in sync. As soon as you insert the Nora, the Max 2 is fired up, and any increase in intensity translates to intensified contractions and vibrations. Similarly, stroking the Max 2 results in Nora vibrating and rotating to match the intensity. Our only concern is that the app’s video call feature has poor audio and video quality, but we usually turned to Skype instead.

Lovense Max 2 and Nora are the most affordable long-distance sex toys. It’s less than $200, which is a bargain considering the options. Our test panel gave high ratings to the mobile app and the teledildonics technology, which made long-distance sex feel better and organic.

Note: Max 2 is not a hands-free masturbator like Onyx+. It vibrates and contracts, and you must do the stroking yourself.

If you want to see how the movements are synchronized between the two devices, please check out our demonstration video below:

Max 2:

  • Material: ABS, TPE
  • Insertable Length: 9.5″
  • Case Diameter: 3.33″

Nora:

  • Material: Silicone, ABS
  • Length: 7.87″
  • Insertable Length: 4.72″

Pros:

  • Affordable combo kit for long-distance couples.
  • Max 2’s redesigned throat simulator simulates vaginal contractions.
  • High-tech sensors transfer the movements between them quickly.
  • An air vent and suction-regulating valve intensify the experience.
  • The multi-sensation sleeve feels great.
  • They are rechargeable.

Cons:

  • They can be loud, especially in high settings.
  • Nora’s magnetic charger disconnects easily after a slight touch.
  • Max 2 doesn’t stroke.

3. Kiiroo Keon And OhMiBod Fuse: Our Favorite High-Tech Bundle!

Kiiroo Keon And OhMiBod Fuse

If you have the money to spend and want a more high-end package, we highly recommend the Kiiroo Keon and Feel Stroker combo. The high-tech package comes with an automatic masturbator and stroker, both made in-house, making the locking mechanism perfect.

The massive 230-strokes-per-minute Keon has an ergonomic shape with intuitive buttons on either side and grooves to simplify handling and control. It houses a 7.9″ stroker for hands-free strokes.

Keon sleeve

The Keon sleeve (seen above) features a series of bulbs lined throughout its length. While this might not be the most intense texture we’ve tested, the evenly spread bulbs hug the penis from all fronts for more uniform stimulation. We also rated it as the preferred option for stamina training.

Let’s move on to the synchronization. Kiiroo Keon connects with the OhMiBod Fuse for real-time rumble transmission. Fuse’s touch-sensitive technology on the main arm and clitoral tickler, coupled with responsive LED lights, make for a perfect couple’s sex toy.

The body showing the LED lights

Like Pearl 2, sliding the Fuse inside your vagina will trigger action on the Keon’s side, matching your stroking action to the thrusting speed. Most importantly, this high-tech combo has bi-directional control, allowing either of you to control the rhythm and intensity.

Our only concern is that the app is tricky to set up, but you only need to do it once (However, as you can read in my Keon review, the company released a new version, so I had to do it again.)

The Keon box

Kiiroo Keon and OhMiBod Fuse is a high-tech sex toy combo with multiple futures that’d be exciting to any long-distance couple. Our test panel especially loved that the masturbator had an interlocking stroker and an easy-to-use, travel-friendly design. On the other hand, the OhMiBod Fuse features rumbly motors and touch-sensitive tech on the G-spot and clitoral arm, thus simplifying bi-directional control.

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

Kiiroo Keon:

  • Material: ABS, PC, Silicone, (Keon), ABS, PC (Feel Stroker Case), TPE (Sleeve)
  • Length: 7.9″ (Feel Stroker)
  • Case Diameter: 3.3″ (Feel Stroker)

OhMiBod Fuse:

  • Material: Silicone, ABS
  • Length: 8″ (overall), 2.25″ (external arm)
  • Insertable Length: 5″
  • Diameter: 1-1.5″ (shaft), 0.5 – 1.1″ (external arm)

Pros:

  • Body-safe silicone and ABS materials.
  • High-tech combo with bi-directional control.
  • Kiiroo’s in-house stroker locks in perfectly.
  • Keon has an ergonomic design with intuitive buttons and grooves to simplify handling.
  • Fuse’s touch-sensitive tech makes long-distance romance enjoyable.
  • Responsive LED lights on the Fuse are perfect for visual kinksters.

Cons:

  • It’s expensive – $349.

4. Kiiroo TITAN And Cliona: Most Compact & Travel-Friendly!

Kiiroo TITAN And Cliona

Our testers thought the Kiiroo Titan and Cliona couple’s sex toy set had the most compact and travel-friendly design. Unlike most long-distance bundles we’ve reviewed, they had the smallest form factor and fit into your travel plans neatly so that a trip away from the house doesn’t keep you away from your long-distance partner.

The Titan comes with a RealFeel sleeve lined with multiple bullet vibrators for an exciting blend of rumbly vibrations. Our testers liked the grippy case that simplified handling considerably. With an intuitive touch-sensitive control pad and an impressive six vibration modes to explore, Kiiroo Titan was a treat.

In addition, the masturbator connects to Cliona and other FeelTechnology-enabled products for real-time shared sensations regardless of the distance. Connecting them with the Feel Connect app was quick and straightforward. You can also use the app or punchy plus and minus buttons on the clitoral vibrator to regulate pleasure.

With or without the app, they have touch-sensitive tech, allowing either of you to control the other’s sensations. Even when your partner isn’t available for play, you can always spice up solo play with interactive erotic videos.

However, one thing the company can improve is the Titan charging time. 3 hour charging time for only 30 minutes of playtime is not good!

Overall, Kiiroo Titan and Cliona are the perfect small long-distance sex toys. Besides the multiple vibration patterns, body-safe materials, and bi-directional control, they fit into your travel plans effortlessly.

Titan:

  • Material: ABS, TPE (Sleeve)
  • Length: 8.7″
  • Case Diameter: 3.42″

Cliona:

  • Material: Silicone, ABS
  • Length:5″
  • Width: 2″

Pros:

  • A compact and travel-friendly sex toy bundle for long-distance couples.
  • Powerful yet ergonomic shaped Titan.
  • The touch-sensitive clit stimulator is easy to use.
  • They are USB-rechargeable.
  • Cliona’s concave shape rests on the clitoris perfectly.

Cons:

  • Kiiroo Titan takes three hours to charge, only to churn out 30 minutes of play.

5. Lovense Lush 3 & Edge 2: Highest-Rated For Public Play!

Lovense Edge 2

The Lovense Lush 3 and Edge 2 combo is perfect for public play fans. Both toys are relatively quiet and made from silky silicone material, making them ideal for extended public play sessions.

Lush 3 has a built-in control pad to cycle through the preset vibration patterns. It’s also compatible with the Lovense Remote app, which offers more vibration patterns, music sync, and sound-activated vibrations. The smartphone app makes connecting the vibrator to Lovense Edge 2 straightforward.

Lush 3 packaging

Lush 3’s G-spot targeting arm has a bulbous design for an incredibly filling experience. As you can see in the image above, it also has a flexible clitoris flicker that warmly hugs the clit while pushing the other end against the G-spot for intense and pinpoint stimulation.

On the other hand, we have Edge 2. The prostate massager has two motors on the prostate arm and the perineum massager for blended sensations. However, one thing the company should improve is the noise level. In my opinion, it’s too loud for public play!

Lovense Edge 2

The Lovense app makes it easy for partners to control each other’s pleasure from any distance. Add your partner to the long-distance tab, have them accept the invitation, and blow each other out. Notably, you only have to do the pairing once.

Lovense Lush 3 and Edge 2 are ideal for public play fans. Besides the ease of use and multiple motors for blended sensations, we loved that they remain relatively quiet, an essential aspect of public play. In addition, they feature a flexible design to enhance your comfort during extended outdoor play sessions.

Lush 3:

  • Material: Silicone
  • Insertable Length: 3″
  • Diameter: 1.37″

Edge 2:

  • Material: Silicone
  • Length: 4.89″
  • Insertable Length: 3.59″
  • Diameter: 1.38″

Pros:

  • Discreet partner bundle.
  • Powerful and rumbly vibrations.
  • The flexible designs render them comfortable to wear.
  • Dual-motor design for Edge 2 promotes blended sensations.
  • High-quality silicone material.
  • Simplified control with the Lovense Remote app.

Cons:

  • Expensive – the bundle costs more than $200.
  • Lush 3’s external arm does nothing for the clitoris.

Highest-Rated Vagina Products

The below vibrating devices are perfect for vulva owners who don’t want distance to impede the relationship. Whether a clitoral or G-spot vibrator, they connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth so you or your partner can easily regulate the vibrations.

6. Lovense Lush 3: Our Overall Test Winner!

Lovense Lush 3 laying on a bathtub

Lovense Lush 3 is our top long-distance toy for vagina owners because it got the highest average score from our testers. They especially pointed out the new powerful motor, protruding tail, and repositioned buttons, all of which performed better than the competition.

We thought the new motor gave the vibrator an extra kick, a vital addition, considering it’s solely a G-spot toy with less attention to the clitoris. In addition, the protruding tail enhances connectivity, while the repositioned buttons simplify handling and control. “Aside from the hardware adjustments, I loved the toy’s compatibility with the Lovense app because it makes long-distance relationships more worthwhile”, Rachel Sommer reported.

Magnetic charging port and cable

The company didn’t skimp on the material either. Lush 3 is made from smooth medical-grade silicone and has a flexible design, making it comfortable even when you wear it for extended periods. Its bulbous head targets the G-spot with its large surface area, making it easy to hit it from different angles.

The Bluetooth G-spot vibrator has immense flexibility, especially with the dedicated mobile app (You can see me demonstrating how to use the app in the below image). You can also use it for discreet public play, thanks to the relatively quiet motor.

How to control the product from the Smartphone app

Our only concern is the protruding tail. While it does a great job of ensuring the toy stays intact, its non-vibrating design means the clitoris gets no attention.

Overall, Lovense Lush 3 is our favorite long-distance egg vibrator. Everything from the bulbous head to the flexible neck and clitoris-hugging arm is better than the competition. It’s also relatively discreet and perfect for public play.

If you want to see what Lovense Lush 3 looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

Read my complete Lush 3 review here.

  • Material: Silicone
  • Length: 8.3″
  • Insertable Length: 3″
  • Circumference: 1.37″

Pros:

  • The best Bluetooth vibrator for vagina owners.
  • Body-safe silicone build.
  • The bulbous head and flexible neck promote pinpoint G-spot stimulation.
  • An easy-to-use control pad allows you to cycle through the preset vibration patterns.
  • The smartphone app simplifies remote control.
  • USB-Rechargeable and waterproof design.

Cons:

  • Non-vibrating clitoral stimulation arm.

7. OhMiBod Esca 2: Our Runner-Up!

OhMiBod Esca 2

Like the Lovense Lush 3, the OhMiBod Esca 2 has a unique C-shaped design with a bulbous head on one end and a curling tail on the other. We placed it slightly behind Lush 3 because it had weaker vibrations and the phone application was not as feature-rich. However, we think it’s still a solid buy, especially for camgirls and other live performers.

The 2nd generation G-spot stimulator has a more flexible stem and a bigger head than its predecessor. These two significant design improvements greatly simplify G-spot targeting and make the toy more comfortable to wear. “The elongated antenna improves connectivity and pushes the G-spot targeting head further to enhance the experience”, Sandra Larson pointed out in her test report.

OhMiBod Esca 2

Esca’s unique flexibility allows you to hand your partner the controls or connect it with a partner’s Kiiroo sex toy for real-time interactive play. OhMiBod’s Remote App allows for close-range and long-distance partner control. On the other hand, the Feel Connect app makes it easy to connect with your partner’s device.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of seams on the Esca. For example, the power button, the belt around the toy, and the charging hole. And those could be tricky to clean, which was the primary reason we put it behind Lush 3 in this category.

Esca 2 and the smartphone app

So, if you’re looking for a unique device for long-distance romance, Esca 2 is the one. Everything from the pinpoint G-spot stimulation to the adjustable LED lights and simplified toy-to-toy interactivity makes it a top choice. It even has a club mode that syncs the vibrator’s rumbles to music and ambient sound.

If you want to see what Esca 2 looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

  • Material: Silicone, ABS
  • Length: 7.3″
  • Diameter: 1.3″

Pros:

  • A quality teledildonic G-spot toy.
  • Reliable mobile apps with multiple functionalities.
  • It’s made from body-safe materials.
  • Relatively affordable.
  • Responsive LED lights.
  • It connects with Kiiroo devices for real-time interactive sex.

Cons:

  • The Esca 2 is water-resistant, not waterproof.
  • The seams can be tricky to clean.

8. We-Vibe Chorus: For Blended Orgasms!

We-Vibe Chorus

We-Vibe Chorus is a C-shaped G-spot and clitoral vibrator that performed best in the dual stimulation test category. Unlike your regular external and internal use toy, it has a small design so it can fit in between couples during sex. Of course, that’s not the main feature, but the flexibility was too good to pass on. Tim and I have used it numerous times, and we both love the extra dimension it adds to regular sex.

The team felt the flexibility was a standout feature. It has two joints on the upper and lower neck, allowing you to adjust the angle to get a custom fit. Another highlight was the handy squeeze remote control (image below) that matches the strength of your grip to the vibration intensity. With three speeds and seven vibration modes to explore, we found the We-Vibe Chorus an exciting pick for blended orgasms.

Closeup of the controls

You can also regulate the rumbles with the free We-Connect app. This universal app also allows you to hand your partner the controls for easy close-range and longer-distance control. However, I wish there were a button on the remote control that would allow access to the touch sense modes. The touch mode is fun, but today you can only access it via the app, which can be a pain in the middle of the action.

So, if you’re looking for a small, travel-friendly vibrator for blended G-spot and clitoral orgasms, you should add Chorus to your shopping cart ASAP. The mobile app does misbehave sometimes, but everything else runs well. The flexible design, squeeze remote, and multi-use size stood out.

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

Please read our complete We-Vibe Chorus review here.

  • Material: Silicone
  • Length: 3.5″
  • Insertable Length: 3″

Pros:

  • Rumbly vibrations for blended orgasms.
  • The flexible design can be customized for a custom fit.
  • Unique squeeze remote control.
  • It has a dedicated remote app to cycle through the different vibration modes.
  • It’s made from silky-smooth silicone.
  • It’s rechargeable and waterproof.

Cons:

  • Repeated issues with the app.
  • The toy is pricey – $199.99.

9. We-Vibe Moxie+: Long-Distance Panty Vibrator!

We-Vibe Moxie+

Why we love We-Vibe Moxie+:

I’ve used numerous sex toy mobile applications; only the Lovense Remote app comes before the We-Vibe app, which is used by their Moxie+ panty vibrator. Besides initial hitches with Bluetooth connection, which goes away after disconnecting and reconnecting the remote control, the application is flawless.

Besides the simplified interface that makes the experience foolproof, the mobile app (screenshots below) opens your world to endless possibilities. I’m not the most creative sex toy user, but most people will enjoy the ability to create vibration settings from scratch and save them for later use.

The We-Vibe app also lets you activate sound-responsive vibrations so the sex toy responds to ambient noise. Whether it’s your partner moaning or a loudspeaker, the hands-free sensations are breathtaking. In addition, you can sync the buzz with your playlist so that the vibrations follow the music’s rhythm. Exciting. Right?

The We-Vibe Moxie has a simpler-to-use wireless remote control (image below) if you enjoy the convenience but can’t keep up with the technicalities of a dedicated mobile application. While it doesn’t offer as many functions, the remote control is foolproof, and anyone can use it.

The remote control

We especially loved the upgraded remote. Unlike the preceding model, it’s covered with a silky-soft silicone material, making it grippier and easier to use. The independently positioned buttons are much easier to track, even in positions where you don’t have a direct view of the action, further enhancing the user experience.

Something else that stood out was the panty vibrator’s design. I grew fond of the easy-going ridge in the middle. It culminates into an angled tip, intelligently directing the vibrations to specific zones on the clitoris. While people seeking broad stimulation will be disappointed, people like me who enjoy precision will love the measured and pinpoint sensations (I demonstrate how the stimulation works on a pair of panties below).

Note: Moxie+ is versatile. Besides doubling as a bullet vibrator, if you prefer broad sensations and end up with the panty vibrator, you can use it to warm up and get ready for sex. The buzz relaxes your clitoris and gets the vagina walls dripping with finesse, making sex more exciting and comfortable.

Lastly, the build quality was over the top. The designer’s choice to go with silicone was a brilliant one. Besides being hygienic, it’s non-porous, easy to clean, and extra squishy, meaning even people with ultra-sensitive clitoris will enjoy the experience. With top-notch artistry, the vibrating panty vibrator offers incredible versatility for couples in long-distance relationships.

Minor issues we found during testing:

My most significant concern was the pricing. I’ve reviewed numerous panty vibrators, and even with Moxie+’s long-distance capabilities, $139 is a stretch for a panty vibrator.

In addition, the button placement on the sex toy could be better. Besides being difficult to access once in your panties, the power button is susceptible to accidental pressing whenever you sit on a hard chair, which can be a bummer for public play fans.

Why We-Vibe Moxie+ is the Best Long-Distance Panty Vibrator:

  • Ease of Use: The remote-control vibrator is compatible with the rebranded We-Vibe app, which we rated higher than the other long-distance panties we tested. We had no major issues regulating the rumbles with the handy remote controller. The new all-silicone control feels solid in the palm, and the indented buttons significantly make the experience straightforward.
  • Build Quality & Design: The build quality didn’t disappoint like other We-Vibe toys in my collection. Everything from the soft ridge to the angled shape and the magnetic clips makes for a well-thought-out design language. In addition, the vibrator looks and feels solid. I tried shaking it vigorously, and no parts inside were moving, a sign of a well-put sex toy.
  • Battery Life: The battery has an impressive two-hour power output, better than the other products we tested. And considering it only takes 90 minutes to charge fully, the long-distance sex toy is ready to serve you until you’re satisfied. In addition, you can see the battery life remaining at all times on the We-Vibe app so that the vibrator doesn’t catch you off guard.

10. Lovense Edge 2: Our Overall Test Winner!

Edge 2 with the Lovense app

Lovense Edge 2 was the highest-rated prostate massager among our review samples. Unlike other products on this list, it features dual motors, one for prostate stimulation and the other for the perineum. We especially loved that the head is adjustable, making it easy to get a custom fit and, most importantly, hit the sweet spots effortlessly for exciting blended sensations.

Unlike its predecessor, it has an enormous bulb for precise P-spot stimulation, an upgraded circuit board, and an improved battery for better connectivity and prolonged anal play.

Edge 2 with the Lovense app

The most outstanding feature was the prostate massager’s compatibility with the Lovense app. The smartphone app opens your world to more possibilities, including more vibration settings and partner control for those in long-distance relationships. In the image above, you can see me demonstrating how to use the Lovense remote app.

One issue I found during testing is that while it’s comfortable sitting down, it’s uncomfortable walking around with it. A bit of concern since it’s marketed as a public toy.

So, if you’re looking for a good option for anal exploration, you should buy Lovense Edge 2 today. Everything from the dual-motor design to the adjustable head and mobile app control renders it perfect for long-distance couples. The Bluetooth butt plug is also 100% waterproof, making exciting aquatic play possible.

11. Kiiroo Keon: Long-Distance Male Masturbator

Kiiroo Keon and the content of the box

Kiiroo Keon is significant because it came after the discontinued Fleshlight Launch. Unlike the latter, it’s more compact and travel-friendly. It’s also easier to control and handle, thanks to the intuitive buttons and ridged sides.

The long-distance Fleshlight is VR-compatible, and with quick smartphone app integration, your partner can regulate the rumbles from miles away. Thanks to the interactive technology, you can also connect it with the OhMiBod Fuse for real-time interactive play, regardless of the distance.

The body showing the LED lights

Instead of contracting rings like Kiiroo Onyx+, the Keon machine uses a full-stroke motion that’s a lot more realistic and felt more pleasurable for me. The testers thought that this design choice made it better than the other masturbators we tested.

The testers liked the sleeve texture, which features evenly placed bulbs throughout its length. Tim Larson summarized his experience like this: “It reminded me of the Stamina Training Unit – unintimidating to the eyes but exceptionally effective in training endurance. The even distribution of bulbs means the sensations are well-spread so that every inch of the penis is targeted.”

Our only concern is the price. $249 is quite a lot of money, but you can find several affordable options.

Overall, Kiiro Keon is our favorite for long-distance male masturbation sessions. Full stop. Its compact design, simplified control, VR capabilities, and long-distance partner control renders it suitable for the job. Most importantly, you can connect it with other compatible toys like OhMiBod’s Fuse.

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

Please read my complete Kiiroo Keon review here.

  • Material: Silicone, PC, ABS (Keon), ABS, PC, TPE (Stroker)
  • Length: 7.9″ (Feel Stroker)
  • Case Diameter: 3.3″ (Feel Stroker)

  • Multiple speeds to explore.
  • VR compatibility renders it perfect for solo and partnered play.
  • Optional 5 vaginal sleeves.

12. We-Vibe Bond: Most Effective Cock Ring!

We-Vibe Bond

We-Vibe Bond is the best remote cock ring that we tested. Everything from the posh packaging to the adjustable design and mobile control stood out from the other models.

The all-silicone cock ring features a quick-release system that makes it easy to put on and take off. One concern is that the ring is quite tight and might not be comfortable if you have an extremely girthy penis. If you are well endowed, you could try one of the cock rings with magnetic clips instead.

Bond and the remote control

Another standout feature was the discreet motor that makes the cock ring suitable for public play. It delivers subtle sensations regardless of the location, and with an all-silicone stretchy build, you don’t have to worry about comfortability. The Bond comes with a nifty remote control (image above) that we thought was one of the better models we used so far.

We-Vibe Bond is a versatile and exciting penis ring for penis owners who want to explore remote play. Besides the stretchy silicone build, I loved the intuitive mobile control, whisper-quiet motor, and extended battery life. It also has a wireless remote control and is waterproof, rendering aquatic play an exciting prospect.

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

You can read our complete review of We-Vibe Bond here.

  • Material: Silicone
  • Length: 3″
  • Diameter: 1.89″ (widest point)

Pros:

  • Hypoallergenic silicone design.
  • Adjustable design.
  • Wireless remote control and mobile app options.
  • The whisper-quiet motor is perfect for public play.
  • The unique snap-lock design makes putting it on and taking it off easy.
  • The all-silicone build enhances your comfort.

  • Not for well-hung guys.

Highest-Rated LGBTQ+ Products

Regardless of your sexual orientation and gender, there are plenty of choices for LQBTQ+ couples. Besides the app control feature that makes it easy to regulate the sensations remotely, these devices are compatible, allowing same-sex couples to enjoy synchronized stimulation.

 


13. Nora Couples Set: For Lesbian Couples

Lovense Nora inside the boxNora couples set is the best combo for lesbian couples that we found. The G-spot and clitoral vibrator has a rotating head and vibrating arm for blended sensations. In addition, you can regulate both arms’ rotation speed and vibration intensity for a customized experience.

Everything from the tapered tip to the ridged body makes for an exciting purchase for lesbian couples. With the throbbing head, internal stimulation is more intense and pinpoint.

As soon as you insert your Nora, your partner’s Nora wakes up, responding to the stroking action. And if you or your partner changes the intensity using the buttons, your Nora mimics the new intensity. Plus, either of you can take the wheel, adding a new dimension to your sex life.

The Nora couple set is an exciting remote combo for lesbian couples. Besides the smooth silicone shaft and clitoral arm, I loved the multiple vibration settings, dedicated mobile app, and toy-to-toy integration that renders your long-distance relationship more exciting.

  • Material: Silicone, ABS
  • Length: 7.87″
  • Insertable Length: 4.72″

Pros:

  • Well-made rabbit vibrator for lesbian couples.
  • Multiple vibration modes to explore.
  • The rotating head makes G-spot stimulation pinpoint.
  • Handy smartphone app.
  • Independent vibration and rotation capabilities.
  • Commendable battery life.

Cons:

  • Like Max 2, you can’t buy it as a set – you must purchase them separately.

Note: There’s no official Nora lesbian couple set. Just buy 2 of them.

14. Onyx+ Couples Set: For Gay Couples

Onyx+

Kiiroo Onyx+ couples set is ideal for long-distance gay couples looking to explore fun ways to shorten the distance. The high-tech package boasts a 140 strokes/minute top speed and has a rotating motor that powers side-by-side and up-and-down movements to simulate intercourse.

Like other teledildonic sex toys we’ve reviewed, either partner can lead the action. Changing the intensity with the touchpad on your Onyx+ also changes the settings on your partner’s side. While the app offers more control possibilities, I think using the touchpad feels more organic.

My only concern is the available sleeves might be limiting for people with large penises. Guys past a 1.69″ penis diameter might have a rough time with Onyx+.

So, if you’re looking for a queer couples’ masturbator set for a small to average-sized penis, here’s a great choice. The automatic penis massager comes with three replacement sleeves, has a new rotating motor, and can reach up to 140 strokes per minute. Best of all, it connects with another Onyx+ for an exciting romantic encounter.

  • Material: ABS, POM,
  • Insertable Length: 6.5″
  • Diameter: 1.18 – 1.69″

Pros:

  • Unique side-by-side and up-and-down movements.
  • Fancy-looking glossy masturbator.
  • It comes with 3 replaceable sleeves.
  • Intuitive control pad.
  • Powerful motor with up to 140 strokes in a minute.
  • Functional mobile app for simplified long-distance play.

Cons:

  • It can be limiting for gay couples with large penises.
  • The masturbator is not waterproof.

What Are Long-Distance Sex Toys (Teledildonics)?

How do long-distance sex toys work? Well, Teledildonics are adult toys built around haptic feedback, a technology that applies force, vibrations, and movements to the user. One example of haptic feedback is the game controller Rumble Pak by Nintendo.

The name Teledildonic was introduced in 1975 by Ted Nelson, who envisioned a future where we have remote sex with genuine feelings of touch transmitted via computers. The first Teledildonic products were simple vibrators with weak vibrations.

Description how long distance vibrators are working

But long-distance sex toys have come a long way since. Today, Teledildonics offers more than just small vibrations that respond to input, and it allows for lifelike interactivity in real-time, making it ideal for couples in remote relationships. The most popular products are from Kiiroo and Lovesense, and those interactive sex toys enable long-distance couples to experience intimacy and sexual pleasure.

However, the computer sex toy niche is developing rapidly, and soon we can expect more advanced products with advanced VR and fully immersed Augmented Reality features.

 


Are Sex Toys Good For Long Distance Relationships?

Long-distance sex toys offer more flexibility thanks to the remote control capabilities that allow you or your partner to regulate the rhythm and intensity from across the room or the world. This enhances human connection greatly, especially when you can’t be physically together with your partner.

Kiiroo couple set

Another reason is the impressive teledildonics technology enabling partners to connect them for synchronized rumbles. Let’s say you have the Kiiroo Keon masturbator, and your partner has the Fuse, for instance. Her sex toy responds to your masturbator’s movements for a more harmonized experience.

Overall, using long-distance sex toys adds a new dimension to the relationship, allowing partners to satisfy each other regardless of the distance. Plus, you can use the dedicated mobile app from across the room or the world – no limits!

 


How Should I Clean My Long-Distance Sex Toys?

For starters, you should clean your long-distance sex toys before the first use and after every use. Cleaning before use helps wipe off any foreign material trapped during transit. On the other hand, I recommend cleaning your long-distance sex toys after use because it’s much easier to dislodge any debris. It also ensures your toy is always ready for you. You don’t want to be the guy running to clean the vibrator when you want to use it.

Cleaning Sex Toys In The Sink

Depending on the material, mild soap and warm water mix will do the job. Just make sure you rinse with cold running water. You can also use a sex toy cleaner if unsure of the material.

Non-porous materials like silicone, glass, and stainless steel can be submerged in boiling water for disinfection. You might use a damp cloth to wipe porous materials like TPE.

Dry the toy thoroughly after cleaning, especially if the material is porous, to avoid bacteria replication during storage. You can either air dry or use a lint-free towel. Lastly, store the LDR sex toys in a clean, cool, and dry space.
