With National Orgasm Day just around the corner (it’s July 31, btw), sex toy brands have been hinting at new products to look forward to this summer. The latest launch to catch my eye comes from the luxe sex toy brand LELO.
On July 23, LELO released its first-ever dual-ended wand vibrator. According to the company’s press release, the main draw of this vibe is that it can be used by two vulva owners at the same time. LELO is calling the new vibe a “true celebration of vulva-centered sex and mutual connection” that’s “uniquely suited for simultaneous, co-creative play.”
"LELO Switch flips the script on dominant narratives around sex — especially those that center male pleasure or position the penis as the main event,” LELO sexpert and certified sex therapist Casey Tanner said in the release. “It also challenges the idea that pleasure between two women is always one-sided or sequential. Instead, Switch is about mutual arousal, creative positioning, and shared sensation.”
In practice, simultaneous use might be a little tricky. The positioning could get awkward, and some positions, like straddling your partner, might be tough on the leg muscles. A spooning position would likely be more comfortable.
The coolest feature I saw is its integration with the LELO app. You can set up a private chat room with your partner (using the “Love Bridge” feature) and switch (see what they did there?) control over each other’s LELO app-connected devices, no matter how far apart you are. This makes it a great tool for long-distance couples or any partners looking to explore their eroticism from a distance.
Other features I noticed were the FINISH ME OFF mode, which slowly builds you to orgasm, and the OUT OF CONTROL mode, which promises a “tailor-made” experience for an “unpredictable” orgasm. The toy also has 16 vibration intensities and 10 pleasure settings: five on the clitoral end, five on the penetrative end, and two extra modes when connected to the app. It's currently $199, which is a competitive price for a smart vibrator with this range of features.
As for the design, it looks super chic without overdoing it. It comes in three colors (Lilac, Soft Pink, and Aqua) and has little ridges on both the wand and penetrative end should feel ahhmazing on your labia and clit (once you add a generous amount of lube, of course). Though if you decide you want penetrative or clitoral stimulation while you’re enjoying the other, it may get a little messy, and you might want to have a second toy nearby for dual stimulation.
Overall, I can’t wait to try this toy. As a huge fan of the iconic LELO Smart Wand 2, I'm especially curious to see how the Switch's wand end compares. I haven’t had the best luck with app-connected toys in the past, as they can be complicated to set up when you're already in the mood. Fumbling with settings can kill the vibe, whether I’m alone or with a partner. Even so, I’m excited to test the LELO Switch and see if it lives up to the hype.
