As someone who’s always on the hunt for the latest and greatest sex toys, I always keep my eye on the latest releases from Lovense. The Hyphy promises power-packed vibes for intense orgasms in less than 5 minutes, but then again, so do some men. But, my interest was piqued, and when I first saw this toy, the substantial base and interchangeable heads promised a unique experience. So, I couldn’t wait to put it to the test to see if it lives up to the hype!
After testing it for a month, Hyphy became my new favorite toy. Besides the lovely smartphone app (the best on the market), it has a broad range of settings to cater to different experience levels, it’s easy to use, and the interchangeable heads were a game changer! But please note that this thing is powerful, revving up to 12,000 vibrations per minute. It’s like having a mini Jackhammer in your hands – so I advise NOT going straight for the clit but rather using it to circle your lips and vulva for some pleasurable sensations.
Who Should Try It? The Hyphy is perfect for a range of users; beginners, experienced sex toy users, long-distance couples, or someone looking to upgrade their current toy collection. For newbies curious about sex toys, the Hyphy is a great starting point. It’s easy to use, with a simple design and intuitive controls that allow you to experiment with different vibration patterns and intensities. If you own a similar product, such as the Zumio, but want to upgrade, the Hyphy offers a broader range of vibration patterns and intensities. And, if you feel stuck in the age-old dilemma of choosing between similar models, like the Zumio or LELO DOT, the Hyphy comes out on top in terms of power and versatility.
Who Can Skip It? On the flip side, who should avoid it? If you’re sensitive to high-frequency vibrations, a product like the LELO DOT, which reduces clitoral numbness, might be more appropriate.

What is Lovense Hyphy?
Lovense Hyphy is a dual-ended vibrator giving you the best of both worlds, with precise, focused vibrations at one end and more powerful, broad vibrations, at the other. The three interchangeable tip attachments allow you to customize the sensation to your liking, while the second motor in the contoured base provides additional stimulation for your G-spot.
The slight curve and length also make it easy to use during partnered sex, and the Remote app allows you to control the toy from anywhere in the world. Whether you’re seeking solo pleasure or a new way to spice up your sex life, Hyphy has you covered. The completely waterproof and rechargeable design makes it a convenient and high-quality addition to your pleasure collection.
First Impressions and Features
Unboxing
Lovense Hyphy comes with the classic Lovense packaging design, which includes a neat but slightly unsexy white box, the toy, and a user manual. (You can see all the items in the image above).
However, once unboxed, the Hyphy differs from any other Lovense products I own; it features a unique storage solution – a hard case with a transparent lid instead of the usual satin baggie.
The case has a mini storage compartment for its three interchangeable tips and inner and outer charging ports for easy charging while protecting the toy from dust and other elements. At first, I found the case tricky to store because it curves to the toy’s shape, but I’ve come to appreciate the design for its added benefits. You can see what the storage case looks like in the images above and below.

My Personal Experience
Introduction
I’ve been a fan of oscillating toys for a while now, and the Zumio was the first to introduce me to this new sensation. I was under the impression that not much could improve in the world of oscillating sex toys, but Hyphy excels when it comes to focused stimulation.
While first experimenting with the different tips, I made the mistake of using them on my clit directly, and WHOA, it was intense. I had previously been using the LELO DOT, which moves in an elliptical motion that reduces numbness, whereas, with the Hyphy, I had to treat it more demurely.
Pro Tip: After some experimentation, I started working the focused tip around the outer edges of my vulva, allowing the residual vibrations to reach my clitoris indirectly. I didn’t even have to increase the intensity beyond the second set, as it was already quite powerful and provided a thrilling experience.
Packaging
The Hyphy came packaged in this sleek white box (image below), making me feel like I was unboxing some high-end electronics. The box showcases an image of the toy on the cover, giving me a sneak peek at its unique shape and design.
The rugged storage casing is a practical option for keeping my toy powered up and giving off luxury vibes. It’s something I’d feel proud to gift to someone.
Build Quality
Hyphy’s silicone material has a smooth, heavenly texture, making for a more pleasurable experience. Despite its stiff core, the toy’s narrower width felt comfortable but still gave me a sense of fullness and pressure.
The slight curve of the toy fits my anatomy perfectly, avoiding unwanted pressure and vibrations where they shouldn’t be. The flattened head is also comfortable inside and outside, with a blunter feel that’s less pointy than similar devices.
Design
The Hyphy has a smooth, seamless body that felt comfortable when I was holding it, and the ergonomic shape made it easy to use. The solid storage case was practical and stylish with its transparent lid. You could mistake it for an electric toothbrush, which is convenient for discretion.
The interchangeable tips were all uniquely enjoyable, changing them out was a breeze, and they provided diverse stimulation options without an additional cost that can be common with similar toys like the Zumio. The smooth body also means bacteria won’t be setting up camp, which is a massive plus in my book.
I also appreciate that the toy is available in several gender-inclusive colors like sleek black, lilac, or bright pink, offering options for those who prefer a classic or vibrant look. I opted for the lilac, and I love how fun and colorful it is.
Materials
I value quality and safety in my intimate toys and hypoallergenic materials are an essential consideration. So I was happy to see that Lovense has not cut any corners in this regard. The Hyphy is sturdy and body-safe, so I never worry about harmful chemicals or materials entering my body.
The seamless body of the toy is non-porous, and it’s fully waterproof, making it easy to clean. You can trust that this toy is safe for use and instead focus on the pleasure it provides.
Ease of Use
Flipping the Lovense Hyphy back and forth to use both ends can be a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, you’re in for a real treat! The smooth curves and spacious design make it perfect for clit stimulation from either end. Even when I took it for a spin internally, I was surprised at how easy it was to handle. However, if you’re intense with your thrusting, you may want to opt for a toy with a handle.
The Hyphy is also a great addition to partner play. Its slight curve makes it easy to slip between your legs, and the length keeps your hands out of the way. As for the buttons, they’re easy peasy to use. Press the “up” arrow to turn on the high-frequency end, and scroll through the vibrations and patterns with a quick button press. Want to switch to the G-spot end? Just press the “down” button, and you’re good to go.
It’s so simple even your cat could figure it out. (Disclaimer: Please don’t let your cat play with sex toys!)
Stimulations
Compared to other products on the market, when it comes to versatile stimulation, Lovense has knocked it out of the park with the Hyphy featuring interchangeable heads.
- The U-shaped attachment (circled in red above) was my favorite as its unique design stimulates the clitoral tissue on both sides, creating pleasurable sensations that extend throughout the vulva. Plus, It’s not limited down under and felt great on my nipples.
- While the sphere nub (circled in green above) offers more targeted pleasure, my initial thought was the vibrations seemed focused solely on the tip, unlike the Zumio, where I felt it along the entire length. I still enjoyed gliding it around my lips.
- The tongue-like nub (circled in blue above) didn’t quite mimic oral sex, but with some experimentation, I received incredible sensations using it with a light touch over my clitoris.
- And let’s not forget the dual-end; after my first O, flipping the toy onto the low-frequency end for broader stimulation hit the sweet spot for my clit.
If you previously dismissed the idea of using high-frequency vibes for clitoral stimulation, the Lovense Hyphy might surprise you. It boasts more buzzy vibrations than I initially thought I would enjoy. Still, to my delight, I discovered that a well-crafted, strong, and high-quality buzzy vibe could be unforgettable.
Even though I prefer rumbly vibrations for G-spot stimulation, in my opinion, both types have their place, so it ultimately comes down to personal preference.
Versatility
What I think sets the Hyphy apart in versatility is that it comes with three different interchangeable heads. And, while the high-frequency end specifically targets clitoral stimulation, the broad stimulation end could be used by anyone regardless of gender. I also found the slight curve in the design (image below) made it easy to maneuver and use clitorally during partnered sex.
For long-distance control, the Lovense app is very user-friendly. It allows my partner and me to control the vibration patterns and intensity remotely for an extra layer of anticipation during playtime.
Another noteworthy feature is that although many modern vibrators have an IPX6 waterproof rating, the Hyphy has an IPX7. The main difference is that you can submerge it for 30 minutes in up to 1 meter of water, and it won’t get damaged. So I could take my toy into the shower, bath, and pool.
Sound Level
Designed to deliver intense pleasure and satisfaction, one of the key features that make the Hyphy stand out is its impressive power. However, that power also comes with some noise, more so than something similar to the Zumio – I’d describe it as a “medium” volume toy.
I did a Lovense Hyphy test with my husband, and if you’re using it in the next room, it’s not noticeable on the lowest setting, but if I crank it up, it’s pretty clear that I’m not just brushing my teeth.
The exact volume will depend on the environment and how you use the toy. Still, at the lowest vibration, it generally falls in the range of 35 dB (similar to whispers nearby), and at the highest, around 45 dB (more quiet library).
App Control
Regarding app-controlled vibrators, my experience with Lovense toys has always been impressive, and it’s no different with the Hyphy. I found it connected quickly and more reliably than many other brands. Plus, it was highly responsive to commands.
The app also offers the convenience of lower power levels than the manual settings allow, and with this toy, you’ll probably need it. I’ve had consistently positive sessions using the Hyphy for long-distance play. You can see screenshots from the smartphone app in the image below.
The app is free and easy to use once both partners have created an account and connected. And with the app, you can chat, send photos, video call, and share control of the device for a more interactive experience.
One possible disadvantage of the toy is that the user has to use physical buttons to switch the active motors manually, which may not appeal to those who want to relinquish complete control. Despite occasional disconnections, the toy remains reliable during long-distance play and stays connected even if the phone is locked or another app is open.
Minor issues I found during testing
The magnetic charging cables with Lovense sex toys are the bane of every sex toy owner’s existence. Those magnets seem to have a mind of their own, often falling off and leaving the device uncharged and me horny.
Also, the handle might not be the most comfortable for maintaining a good grip if you’re craving a deep-thrusting experience, requiring creative positioning or assistance to get the most out of it. It may also cause issues for people with limited grip strength.
Despite other minor issues, like being slightly noisy and the occasional connectivity hiccups, the Hyphy still impresses with its innovative design and intense vibrations. It’s not perfect, but it promises an exciting experience if you overlook its minor flaws.

Let me start by saying that my first impression of the Lovense Hyphy was like a lightning bolt straight to my groin. This thing is powerful, revving up to 12,000 vibrations per minute. It’s like having a mini Jackhammer in your hands – so I advise NOT going straight for the clit but rather using it to circle your lips and vulva for some pleasurable sensations.
Now, who should try the Hyphy? For anyone ready to take their solo or partner play to the next level and craving a powerful, orgasmic explosion, the Hyphy is your go-to.
On the flip side, who should avoid it? If you’re sensitive to high-frequency vibrations, a product like the LELO Dot, which reduces clitoral numbness, might be more appropriate.

Who is This For?
The Hyphy is perfect for a range of users; whether you’re a beginner, an experienced sex toy user, or looking to upgrade your current toy collection, I think it has something to offer. For newbies curious about sex toys, the Hyphy is a great starting point. It is easy to use, with a simple design and intuitive controls that allow you to experiment with different vibration patterns and intensities. If you own a similar product, such as the Zumio, but want to upgrade, the Hyphy offers a broader range of vibration patterns and intensities. Besides, it doesn’t take as long to charge, making it a more versatile and convenient toy. And, if you feel stuck in the age-old dilemma of choosing between similar models, like the Zumio or LELO Dot, the Hyphy comes out on top in terms of power and versatility.
Who is This Not For?
The Lovense Hyphy is a powerful vibrator not for the faint of heart. If you prefer soft, gentle vibrations that tickle your erogenous zones, you should steer clear of the Hyphy. This toy is all about precision and intensity, with a sleek and slender design that’s not ideal for those who crave girthy G-spot vibrators. Also, If you’re someone who likes their sex toys silent or you enjoy applying a lot of pressure by thrusting your G-spot vibrator and you know you definitely need rumbly vibrations, the Lovense Hyphy might not be the best choice for you. Its design is more about pinpoint clit stimulation than broad, sweeping movements.
How to Clean Lovense Hyphy?
- Disconnect the toy from any power source.
- Wash the toy with warm water and mild soap. Please avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the toy’s surface.
- Dry the toy thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- To disinfect the toy, you can use a toy cleaner specifically designed for sex toys. Spray the cleaner onto a soft cloth and wipe the toy’s surface.
- Store the toy in a cool, dry place.
You can read more on how to clean Lovense toys in this extensive guide.
I am Sold! Where Can I Buy It?
One popular choice is to visit the manufacturer’s website, which offers significant discounts, sometimes up to 50% off. Additionally, well-established online retailers such as Amazon or Lovehoney have trusted sources for the product. It’s essential to be discerning when purchasing online, as not all retailers are created equal. To receive a safe and high-quality product, look for reputable retailers with a proven track record for peace of mind.
Lovense Hyphy Alternatives
How does Hyphy by Lovense stack up against the competition? The LELO DOT is great but doesn’t have the same intensity as the Hyphy. And while the Zumio offers a unique rotating motion, the Hyphy’s interchangeable tips provide more versatility. Plus, with the Lovense Remote app, the possibilities for play are endless.
LELO DOT
The LELO Dot introduces a unique bendable tip and LELO’s new Infinite Loop technology that moves in a figure 8 motion to reduce numbness and prime you for multiple orgasms -I found that I could use the LELO for longer without any discomfort or desensitization.
In comparison, the Hyphy toy is larger and more robust. And, when it comes to long-distance play, it has an edge. The ability to connect it to my phone via Bluetooth and create custom vibration patterns through the app made it a lot of fun to use with a partner.
While both toys are rechargeable and made of body-safe silicone, the LELO is better suited for those with a more sensitive clitoris. On the other hand, the Hyphy is ideal for those who want more control over their pleasant experience. You can read our LELO DOT review here.
Zumio
Both Hyphy and Zumio pack a punch but I felt that Hyphy’s high-frequency side provided more powerful vibrations. However, Zumio’s patented SpiroTip and circular rotating motion offer a unique pinpoint stimulation that avoids sensitization of the clit.
Additionally, Zumio’s customizable 8-speed design is easy to use and adjust, but the interchangeable tips of the Hyphy offer more versatility for exploring different sensations. Partner play is easy with Hyphy’s customizability, but Zumio’s quiet and discreet operation makes it an excellent option for those who value privacy.
Ultimately, the choice between the two comes down to personal preference. Overall, the Hyphy offers more customization options better suited to long-distance play, while the Zumio is a powerful yet less intense choice that is more travel-friendly and discreet. You can buy the Zumio vibrators on Shevibe.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How to store the Lovense Hyphy
Keep the Hyphy in a cool and dry environment within its protective hard storage casing. Avoid exposing the toy to direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can cause damage over time.
How much does it cost?
The average cost for this pleasure-packed toy is usually in the range of $100 to $200. However, I recommend looking on the official Lovense website, which is often advertised with a 50% discount of only $99.
What lube to use?
I advise using water-based lubes for your toys, including the Hyphy sex toy. They are safe to use with silicone toys, won’t cause discomfort or allergic reactions, usually don’t need reapplication, and are simple to clean. It’s important to avoid using oil or silicone-based lubricants as they can harm the toy’s silicone material.
How long does it take to charge?
Typically, the Hyphy takes around 75 minutes to recharge fully. You can also monitor the battery life via the app, and it has a convenient LED light that indicates the charging status, so you’ll always know when it’s fully charged and ready to play.
Is it waterproof?
Thanks to its IPX7 rating, the Hyphy can be fully submerged in water for up to 30 minutes, making it a safe and reliable choice for use in the bathtub or shower. Please note that Bluetooth connectivity may not be reliable while using the device in or underwater.
How long does the battery last?
It’s safe to say that the Hyphy has a battery that can keep up with your desires. The exact duration will vary based on the intensity of use and settings selected, but you can expect it to last for around 4-5 hours.
How loud is Lovense Hyphy?
The Hyphy produces a “medium” volume, and while it won’t necessarily wake up the neighbors, it’s also not a completely silent toy. If you’re concerned about privacy, using the Hyphy under the covers or in a room with the door closed can help minimize the sound.
What warranties are available?
Lovense offers a comprehensive 1-year warranty for their products and will fix or replace the product at no cost for any issues arising from defects in materials or quality. However, the warranty does not cover damage caused by abuse, misuse, everyday wear and tear, or unauthorized repairs.
Does it ship discretely?
When ordering the Lovense Hyphy, you can expect it to arrive at your door discreetly. The packaging design keeps the contents private, with no branding or product descriptions visible outside, ensuring your toy stays between you and the intended recipient. So you can relax and look forward to a worry-free delivery experience.
