Lovense Exomoon vs Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 Side-By-Side Comparison
Performance Ratings
Our Verdict
The Lovense Exomoon is an app-controlled lipstick bullet vibrator that’s best if you want an exceptional app and prefer rumbly vibrations with mild-to-moderate strength.
The Exomoon is more rumbly than Lovense’s other vibrators, though it doesn’t pack as much intensity as some, including the Lovense Ambi bullet vibrator. Those who value the deep impact of rumbly vibrations will want the Exomoon. Those who care more about intensity will prefer the Lovense Ambi.
Lovense’s app is excellent – the best of any brand we’ve tried. Its features are helpful and intuitive. And the Exomoon maintains a steady, reliable connection with the Lovense app. The Exomoon is also quiet and visibly discreet with its realistic “lipstick” design.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 is the best affordable, app-controlled bullet vibrator – though you can also control it without the app. The app control and connectivity are excellent, especially for such a reasonable price. Only Lovense’s toys provide a better app experience.
But the high-quality app control at a cheap price comes with some tradeoffs. The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8’s vibrations range from gentle to moderately strong. It lacks intense upper power levels, and the vibrations are buzzy.
I prefer more strength and rumbliness, so if you don’t care about app control, I recommend upgrading to the Pillow Talk Racy for about $10 more. Or, if you have the budget, the Lovense Ambi bullet vibrator has a better power range with the best app control available.
Apart from the lack of intense upper settings and buzzy vibrations, the Ultra Power Bullet 8 performs reasonably well. So, if you’re on a tight budget and value a quality app experience to connect with a partner – the Satisfyer Ultra Bullet 8 can be an excellent choice.

Vibrations: Power And Range
The Lovense Exomoon has a good power range with gentle-to-moderate strength but lacks intense upper levels.
When controlling the Exomoon in the Lovense app, the lowest power starts at just 1 out of 10 vibration strength. This gentle starting level is excellent for those who need a soft warmup. And you can work extremely gradually through 20 intensity levels to reach its max strength of 5.4 out of 10, so there are no giant, jarring leaps. Increments are very comfortable.
The top strength of 5.4 out of 10 is less intense than some, including Lovense’s other bullet vibrator, the Lovense Ambi (which reaches 8 out of 10). However, I still orgasm reliably with this moderate level of strength, and it will be enough for many people.
Those who prioritize rumbliness over high intensity will enjoy the Exomoon. If you prefer power over rumbliness, consider the Lovense Ambi.
When using the Exomoon’s button instead of the app, you’ll have access to 3 intensity levels. The first begins at about 25% power, the second at around 60%, and the third is 100% power. So the on-toy controls still provide a good power range when you don’t want to use the Lovense app.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 is low to mid-powered. It’s a very budget-friendly option if you don’t need anything stronger than a 5 out of 10 vibration power. This bullet is powerful enough for me to orgasm, but it takes some time.
Its 5 intensity levels begin softly with 1.25 out of 10 vibration strength. So, it provides several gradual power increments to enjoy in the mild range. This will satisfy people who prefer soft vibrations but not those seeking strength.
If you enjoy more intense vibrations, I recommend spending a few extra dollars and upgrading to the Pillow Talk Racy. This bullet starts at 2 out of 10 on low and reaches 7.75 out of 10 on high, with lots of gradual steps between. So you still have plenty of gentle levels as a warmup but can finish with more intense stimulation. Or at the same price, the BMS Swan Maximum Bullet has an even better power range, but it’s somewhat uncomfortable to grip so I prefer the Racy.
If you want more intense stimulation with app-control, you’ll need to upgrade to the Lovense Ambi.
Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
Most people prefer rumbly vibrators, so we rate them higher than buzzy ones. However, preferences vary, so consider what you enjoy!
The Lovense Exomoon has great rumbliness. It’s lower-frequency (more rumbly) than most bullet vibrators, including the Lovense Ambi. In fact, every power level lands in the rumbly range. The gentler settings are extremely rumbly, but even its highest power levels remain moderately rumbly.
I have not found a more rumbly app-controlled bullet vibrator than the Lovense Exomoon. It’s great for those who value rumbliness and don’t need exceptional intensity. If you want more power and don’t need app control, consider the extremely rumbly We-Vibe Tango X.
We rate rumbly (low-frequency) vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer rumbliness. So, if you prefer buzzy vibrations, simply disregard our scoring in this area and choose based on what you enjoy!
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 is a buzzy vibrator.
Only the lowest level is rumbly. And since it’s the weakest setting, most people will only use it briefly while warming up. The top 3 settings where you’ll likely spend most of your time are buzzy. If you love buzzy vibrations, this may be a great fit! Though I enjoy the Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 5 (not app-controlled) more because it’s a bit stronger overall, and I like a bit more kick behind my buzzy vibrations.
If you’re like most people and prefer rumbly vibes, you’ll have to increase your budget slightly. The Pillow Talk Racy is the most affordable rumbly bullet vibrator. Or if money’s no object, the We-Vibe Tango X is my most rumbly bullet.
Stimulation Precision
Whether you prefer focused or broad stimulation is entirely a personal preference.
The Lovense Exomoon provides focused stimulation. It’s one of the narrowest bullet vibrators I’ve tested. And the lipstick tip comes to a fine point, giving it an even tinier surface area.
This is great for limiting stimulation to a small, specific area. If you prefer direct clitoral stimulation, this is an excellent option. I can apply medium pressure with this bullet but don’t like to press too hard, or the small tip begins to feel pokey. The Lovense Ambi provides more moderate focus if you enjoy some broader stimulation.
The Satisfyer Bullet 8 has a cone-shaped tip that provides somewhat versatile precision. You can get extremely precise stimulation when using the tip’s point on your clit. Or get a more moderate amount of precision when pressing the angled section to your body.
I use the angled method since I prefer indirect stimulation. But its unique shape allows you to vary the surface area in contact with your body to meet your preferences.
App Control: Close Range Features
The Lovense app is outstanding and is my personal favorite app for controlling my toys. It offers a wide variety of simple, intuitive, and useful features to control the Exomoon. (The connectivity is also extremely reliable – we discuss connectivity here).
The main “Remote” control screen is easy to use and gives precise, extremely versatile control over your vibrations. Use the “Float” button to quickly set the vibration power to any constant level.
Or you can draw out the exact pattern you want to feel by dragging your finger up and down to increase or decrease the vibration strength. Click “Loop” to put your creation on repeat. If you enjoy the pattern, you can save it for future use.
You’ll also see the vibration pattern clearly on the screen, so if a partner controls your Exomoon, they can tell exactly what you’re feeling. Many other brands don’t provide good visuals to your partner, making it hard for them to understand how their actions affect your toy’s vibrations.
One downside we noticed is that if you lock your phone screen, the vibration pattern changes a bit. The Exomoon keeps vibrating, but it’s not the same pattern you drew using the “Loop” button. This issue is only a minor inconvenience, and it does not occur when using the “Float” button to set a constant strength or when using pre-designed patterns.
You can choose from pre-made patterns under the “My Patterns” screen and adjust their speed. Or head to the “Discover” section to view patterns created and shared by other Lovense users. You can save any of these to your library.
You can vibrate along to your favorite songs with the “Music” feature, but they have to be songs saved on your phone. Spotify compatibility has been disabled since September 1, 2022, when Spotify discontinued support for third-party apps. You can adjust how sensitive your toy is to the beats of the music. This is an excellent feature if you want to enjoy a constantly changing pattern without keeping your fingers busy on the screen.
Use the “Sound” feature to make your bullet responsive to the noise picked up by your phone’s mic. This is especially fun in a louder environment with Lovense’s wearables like the Lovense Ferri or Lovense Lush 3.
You can also set an alarm for your bullet to buzz at a particular time, though this is less useful for handheld toys like the Exomoon.
With Satisyfer’s affordable prices, I’m always impressed with their app’s excellent quality. Satisfyer’s app outperforms every more expensive brand except Lovense.
The Satisfyer Connect app provides a wide variety of practical, in-depth, and intuitive ways to control your Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 from nearby using Bluetooth. Jump here for a discussion of its connectivity (which is also excellent).
If you like having complete control over your vibrations, use the “Live Control” mode. You can raise and lower the intensity by swiping up and down on-screen. This provides access to a continuous, gradual power range (instead of stepping through just 5 levels with the on-toy button). Or you can draw your exact vibration pattern. Select “Loop,” and the Satisfyer app will put your pattern on repeat.
If you love your in-the-moment creation, you can save it. The next time you use the Ultra Power Bullet 8, your pattern will be available under “Program Play.”
The Program Play screen also provides over 30 preset patterns to enjoy. Select any pattern and control its intensity with a swipe of your finger on-screen. And you can find even more patterns through the “Community” feature. This is where other users share patterns they’ve created, which you can use.
The “Ambient Sound” feature uses your phone’s mic to make the bullet buzz along with the noise around you. For wearable vibrators like the Satisfyer Sexy Secret and other vibrating panties, it’s a great setting to use in a clubbing environment. But for at-home play with a bullet, it could be a nice encouragement to get a little vocal!
You can adjust how strong the vibes respond to the sound around you by dragging up or down on the screen.
Or buzz along to your favorite songs through the “Music Vibes” feature. You can select from songs saved on your phone or connect to Spotify.
Satisfyer also has a “Remotyca Stories” library, which allows you to vibrate in sync with spicy stories, but the selection is limited.
Lastly, in 2023, they added a “High Touch Meditation” feature. This feature provides relaxing audio meditation recordings guiding you slowly through using your vibrator, encouraging you to connect with your body and relax. Over the guided meditation, it plays soothing soundscapes like you’d hear at Yoga or while getting a message. The Satisfyer bullet will vibrate at the appropriate moments in the guided meditation.
The first series of meditations released guides you through using an air pulse toy like the Satisfyer Pro 2, so they don’t have a series specifically for the Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 yet. But the Power Bullet will still vibrate to the meditation – you can still follow along and simply ignore the parts that aren’t directly applicable to a bullet vibrator.
App Control: Long Distance Features
The Lovense Exomoon’s long-distance features and experience are excellent.
The Lovense app allows you to connect with a long-distance partner anywhere in the world. Adding a partner (or partners) is simple. Once you’ve saved them in your partners list, you can text, send photos, video chat, and share control of your toy – all within the Lovense app.
Your partner’s control screen is the same as the “Remote” feature you have during solo play. So they can easily create a repeating pattern using the “Loop” function or set your Exomoon to a constant power using “Float.”
While video-chatting, your partner can see the vibration pattern overlayed on the screen so they can tell what you’re feeling. Or they can hide the vibration pattern to see you more clearly! Lovense’s visuals during video calls are better than other brands like Satisfyer. You can also share control without video or audio for anonymous play.
You can save multiple partners in your list if you connect with them often. Or send out an anonymous one-time link to someone. The anonymous feature lets you send a control link that works for a set amount of time. Once the time expires, they’ll lose access.
If your partner also has a Lovense toy, you can simultaneously control each other’s toys! You can adjust your partner’s settings to either require an invite and confirmation to control your toy each time, or to automatically accept their request so they can take you by surprise! This feature is best for their wearable toys like the Lovense Ferri and Lovense Lush 3.
The Lovense Remote is the most intuitive app for long-distance control I’ve used. And you each have great control and privacy settings to customize the experience. If you are primarily looking for a long-distance bullet vibrator, a Lovense toy like the Exomoon or Lovense Ambi provides the best experience.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 also lets you connect with a long-distance partner anywhere in the world. And Satisfyer’s long-distance experience is great, though less fully-featured than in nearby Bluetooth control.
You can video chat with your partner while they control your Power Bullet 8. When a long-distance partner controls your Satisfyer bullet, they can set your exact vibration power or create their own patterns. In long-distance mode, your partner doesn’t see the precise vibration pattern on-screen, as you do in nearby Bluetooth mode. So drawing an exact pattern is trickier in long-distance mode. But overall, it’s still an excellent level of control.
You can also turn off the video feed or mute the mic, if you’d rather a long-distance partner not see or hear you. This is useful if you want to connect with someone anonymously with just your username. You can also send texts or photo messages through the app – even adjusting how long someone can view your message.
If your long-distance partner also has a Satisfyer toy, you can simultaneously control each other’s toys. Either of you can end toy control or the call at any time.
With a bullet like the Satisfyer 8, it’s a great way to relinquish control of the vibrations to a partner while remaining in control of the pressure and placement you need to orgasm.
App Control: Connectivity
The Lovense Exomoon and other Lovense toys have the most reliable connectivity with their app. It connects to the app quickly and easily. And it remains reliably connected.
The first time you pair the Exomoon with Bluetooth, you’ll select “Add Toy.” The initial pairing process takes less than 20 seconds. After you’ve paired it once, when you open the Lovense app, it will typically connect instantly and automatically.
Most brands require you to walk through a series of steps each time you want to play, but Lovense’s connection is typically instantaneous.
I hardly ever have trouble with it disconnecting during use, even if I leave it dormant while using other apps. If it disconnects due to separating the toy and phone, it often automatically re-pairs when they’re back in range.
And if you do have to manually re-pair it, it’s a very quick and easy process. Simply select the Exomoon from your list of toys again.
The same applies to long-distance control. My partner and I can keep a reliable connection, with disconnections being rare and minimally disruptive even if they do occur.
If app control is important to you, Lovense toys are the best – primarily because of their reliable connectivity.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8’s connectivity with the app is excellent.
Pairing your Satisfyer Bullet 8 with the app is quick and easy. It takes less than 20 seconds, and the app walks you through exactly what you need to do to connect the two. I rarely have any issues with this. But even if I do, the app gives detailed directions to get you back on track.
Once it’s paired, it typically stays paired. And even if it does disconnect (possibly due to separating the toy and phone or leaving the app untouched for too long), it takes minimal effort to get things re-paired. Often, it reconnects immediately on its own.
This is true whether I play solo or with a partner through the long-distance feature.
Comfort & Ease of Use
The Lovense Exomoon is very comfortable and easy to use. It’s right at the shorter end of my ideal bullet length. Its 3.4-inch length provides enough space to grip and leverage the bullet for good pressure. Vibrations in my hand are minimal and not distracting.
The bullet’s discreet “lipstick design” gives it some unusual ridges near the tip, which I had to adjust to. But it’s nothing that will bother most people.
The Exomoon has just one button on the toy. So if you don’t want to use the Lovense app, you’ll need to cycle through the 3 intensity levels and 4 vibration patterns. I wish it had separate buttons to increase and decrease power. But if you want more in-depth control, you can use the app. The button is easy to press without adjusting my grip.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 is a comfortable bullet vibrator and easy to use. At 5.5 inches, it’s one of the longest bullet vibrators I’ve tested, making it especially easy to leverage and comfortable to grip. You can apply firm pressure with it, and vibrations in your hand are minimal.
The uniquely shaped tip may take some getting used to, but you can get great contact and stimulation from it.
The button placement is unusual – away from the handle, very near the tip. I have to adjust my grip to click the button when using the bullet. But the button presses easily, and it isn’t a hassle.
However, I wish it had separate buttons to increase and decrease power. Since it has just one button, you must cycle through all 5 power levels and 7 vibration patterns on a loop. Since there are so many settings, finding the one you want takes time. However, you can avoid this hassle by controlling the bullet through the Satisfyer app, which gives you quick, detailed control.
Use During Sex
The Lovense Exomoon is a decent bullet to use during sex.
Since it’s on the shorter end, it can be a little tiring to reach down and hold it in place during sex. It just takes a little more effort than some.
The tapered tip works well during solo use but requires you to angle the bullet’s base away from your body to keep consistent contact. That angle can be restricted in positions where you’re facing your partner, like Missionary. It’s still doable if you lean away from each other a bit. But it takes more intentionality than some bullets – especially those with angled shapes like the Lovense Ambi.
It’s better in positions facing away from your partner where you have plenty of room to maneuver the bullet.
If using your bullet during sex is a top priority, consider the Lovense Ambi. If it’s not a top priority, most people will still enjoy the Exomoon during sex.
The Satisfyer Bullet 8 works best in the spooning position or others where you’re not facing your partner. It’s easy to maneuver and has a small tip, which fits easily in tight spaces.
However, the unique cone-shaped tip makes it harder to use in missionary positions or others facing your partner. The dramatic taper limits the surface area that can contact your body without sharply angling the entire bullet. But angling it more is difficult without the handle beginning to interfere with our bodies.
It’s still doable, but I prefer the rounded ends of the Pillow Talk Racy, Lovense Ambi, or FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet in face-to-face positions.
Noise
The Lovense Exomoon is very quiet. It’s inaudible from behind a closed door on every power level, so it’s discreet. And the sound isn’t annoying during use, either. If discretion is a priority, the Exomoon is a good choice.
The Satisfyer Bullet 8 is completely inaudible from behind a closed door on all power levels. So it’s safe to use if you live with housemates.
The decibel level is technically a little louder than some, but I don’t find the sound distracting. However, if you’re especially sensitive to this, there are quieter options.
The Pillow Talk Racy is a budget-friendly, discreet bullet with quieter decibel levels.
Battery Life
The Lovense Exomoon is rechargeable and lasted 85 minutes on high power during our testing, which is pretty good. I often forget to charge between uses and still have plenty of battery life.
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 has a great battery life. It lasted an hour and 45 minutes, continuously vibrating on high power during our testing. However, since it’s weaker than many bullet vibrators, the long battery life is not that impressive.
For instance, the We-Vibe Tango X has a comparable battery life while packing over 1.5 times the power.
Build Quality
The Lovense Exomoon’s build quality seems good. A silicone handle would feel a little more luxurious, but the ABS plastic handle feels solid and durable. The silicone tip is very smooth, and the button has a nice feel.
I’ve had the Exomoon since June 2022 and have not experienced any issues yet. And I’ve had other Lovense toys for over 3 years without problems, so I expect the Exomoon to last.
The Satisfyer Bullet 8 has a smooth silicone tip and plastic body. Everything seems well put together, but it’s a light toy, contributing to a slightly cheap feel.
I’ve had no issues with performance, but it won’t provide the more luxurious feel of pricier options like the We-Vibe Touch X or Lovense Ambi.
Cleaning
The Lovense Exomoon is completely waterproof (IPX7 submersible), so it’s very easy to wash. You can submerge it in water without worrying about keeping parts dry while scrubbing with soap and water!
The Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 8 is super easy to clean. It’s IPX7 waterproof, which means you can safely submerge it up to a meter deep for up to half an hour. So you can clean it easily with soap and water or bring it with you in the bath.
