Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini vs Nu Sensuelle Point Side-By-Side Comparison
Performance Ratings
Our Verdict
The Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini is an excellent, budget-friendly bullet vibrator for those who enjoy strong, buzzy vibrations.
It’s very comfortable to use, is discreet, and has a great battery life. It has excellent vibration power (8.75 out of 10), especially for the price! However, it has no mild settings. The gentlest power level is a 6 out of 10 vibration strength.
This bullet vibrator is not for those who need gentle warmup settings or prefer rumbly vibrations – if that’s you, consider some alternatives I discuss here. But the Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini is excellent for those who want intensity on a budget.
The Nu Sensuelle Point is a good, reasonably priced bullet vibrator. However, several cheaper bullet vibrators are just as good or better. For instance, the Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini is nearly identical at a much lower price.
The Nu Sensuelle Point has excellent vibration power, although it is a bit buzzy, which some people will not enjoy. Unfortunately, there are no gentle settings, so if you need a mild warmup, you’ll have to use another vibrator first.
It also has too many settings for its one-button control system. If you want to lower the power, you’ll need to cycle through all 10 power levels and 10 vibration patterns which takes forever. For most people, there are better bullet vibrators at more affordable prices – compare options here.

Vibrations: Power And Range
The Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini lives up to its name because its power levels are all strong – especially for such a small, affordable bullet vibrator. The starting point is already a 6 out of 10 vibration strength, and the top power reaches an 8.75 out of 10.
I can orgasm using just its first setting, which is comparable to the strength of many mid-sized vibrators. And the 3 settings it has are enough to provide comfortable, gradual steps between levels since its power range is relatively narrow.
If you like intensity, it’s excellent. But if you need mild warmups or prefer softer settings, this bullet vibrator may be too strong for you. In this price range, consider the Pillow Talk Flirty if you prefer mild stimulation. Or consider the Blush Limited Addiction if you want intense top settings but need just a touch less intensity on low. Bullet vibrators with much wider power ranges, providing very gentle and intense settings, are pricier.
The Nu Sensuelle Point has excellent intensity but a very limited power range. It has 10 intensity levels, starting at a 6 out of 10 vibration strength and reaching 8.75 out of 10 on high.
Although having 10 intensity levels sounds like a lot, they’re all very close together. So, they don’t actually provide much variety. And with only a single button to cycle through settings, having 10 levels is more of a chore than a benefit. I prefer the nearly identical Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini, which spans the same power range with just 3 convenient settings.
Another significant factor to consider here is that there are no gentle settings, which some people need while warming up.
I often start at a gentler strength – around a 5 out of 10 or lower. Then, as I’m ready for more power, I can gradually work my way up. You won’t find this with the Nu Sensuelle Point, so it’s best for those who aren’t worried about overstimulation and prefer to start strong.
For a cheaper option with a slightly broader power range, the Blush Limited Addiction starts at a 5 out of 10 and reaches an extremely high strength of 10 out of 10!
For an even wider range, the Lovense Ambi ranges from 1.5 out of 10 on low to 8 out of 10 on high, so it has plenty of mild levels to enjoy while warming up.
Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer them. However, plenty of people enjoy buzzy vibrations more.
The Nasstoys Travel Vibe Mini is much better suited for those who like neutral or buzzy vibrations (like me). It has no rumbly settings. The lowest level is neutral, the middle is moderately buzzy, and the most intense setting feels extremely buzzy.
These buzzy vibrations have more of an impact at the surface which can make them feel more intense. Some people will find that overstimulating, but others will love it.
If you prefer low-frequency, rumbly vibrations, you’ll have to increase your budget. The most affordable rumbly option is the Pillow Talk Racy. Or for exceptional rumbliness the We-Vibe Tango X is best. But in general, the most rumbly bullet vibrators I’ve tested are less intense than the Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini. So, decide based on which you care more about.
We rate bullets with rumbly vibrations higher than those with buzzy ones because it’s what most people want. But it’s a personal preference!
The Nu Sensuelle Point has decent rumbliness for its power. The first 3 power levels are in the rumbly range, so you have some rumbly options! Even though these are the softest power levels, the Nu Sensuelle Point’s low settings start with a solid kick at a 6 out of 10 strength. So these rumbly vibrations pack substantial impact.
I consider the next three settings neutral – neither rumbly nor buzzy. I enjoy these neutral settings, but they may disappoint you if you prefer rumbly vibrations. The rest of the settings are moderately buzzy. If you like intense, buzzy vibrations, you’ll enjoy these settings.
It’s important to know that you can’t get this much intensity in a bullet vibrator without trading off some rumbliness. I haven’t found any as powerful as the Nu Sensuelle Point (8.75 out of 10 strength) that remain rumbly. The We-Vibe Tango X gets close (7.75 out of 10 strength) and is the best option for those who value strong vibrations with exceptional rumbliness.
Stimulation Precision
Like most bullets, the Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini provides more focused stimulation than other kinds of vibrators. Compared to other bullets, the amount of precision is toward the middle of the spectrum.
The Intense Travel Vibe Mini is 0.83 inches wide where the tip begins to taper – this feels focused but certainly not pinpoint. By pressing the side of the bullet to your body, you can get comfortable, firm pressure that’s not too precise. Or, if you prefer more pinpoint precision, the tip is tapered – so you can press the top of the bullet to limit the contact to a small area. This can be great if you like direct clitoral stimulation.
The Nu Sensuelle has pretty precise stimulation due to its tapered tip. So you can limit contact to a specific area, which is great if you prefer direct, focused clitoral stimulation.
Besides the taper, the 0.79-inch width is very close to what I consider a medium-precision bullet. And when I press the side of the bullet against my body (instead of just the tip), I can distribute the vibrations across a wider area. This is useful if you enjoy firm pressure from your bullet since a wider surface area can be more comfortable to press against.
Comfort & Ease of Use
The Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini is comfortable and easy to use.
Its 3.8-inch length is long enough to easily leverage without tiring your fingers or wrist. Although the vibrations travel into my hand some, they’re less noticeable once I press the bullet against my body. I don’t find them distracting.
The button is easy to press without changing your grip, but it’s a one-button control system. This means you have to cycle through the 3 power levels and 7 patterns on a loop – there’s no separate button to decrease power.
But I appreciate that turning the bullet off and back on resets the vibrator to its softest power. It’s an easy workaround to quickly decrease the intensity.
If you value having separate controls to increase and decrease power, the Blush Limited Addiction is the best option at this price point.
The Nu Sensuelle Point is comfortable to grip and easy to leverage, but its poor control system is annoying.
Its 0.79-inch wide body is comfortable to hold, and it has enough length (3.7 inches) to easily leverage and apply pressure. Even after long periods, I don’t feel finger or wrist strain while gripping this bullet. The vibrations travel into my hand a bit, but this is most prominent when held in the air. When you press the bullet against you, the vibrations in my hand dampen, and I don’t find them distracting.
Unfortunately, with 20 settings (10 power levels and 10 vibration patterns), its one-button control system is annoying. If you want to return to a previous setting, you need to cycle through all the remaining power levels and patterns!
You cannot even take a shortcut by turning the Nu Sensuelle Point off and back on to start over because it has a memory feature. It will pick back up where you left off! This is another reason I think the nearly identical Nasstoys Travel Vibe Mini is more convenient.
Even better are bullet vibrators with separate buttons to increase and decrease power, like the cheaper Blush Limited Addiction or the premium We-Vibe Tango X.
Use During Sex
The Nasstoys Travel Vibe works great during sex!
It’s a great length to leverage. Alghough it’s a straight bullet, so you don’t get the additional help that a curved shape (like the Pillow Talk Racy) provides. The width of the head is small enough to fit in tight areas yet large enough to hit the right spots comfortably.
I can angle the bullet vibe well without the base bumping into my partner’s chest in positions where we’re facing each other. And the tapered tip maintains really good contact with my clit – I can easily get direct clit stimulation during sex.
If you are looking for a bullet that works well to stimulate during sex, the Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini is one of the best at this price.
The Nu Sensuelle Point is very easy and comfortable to use during sex (provided you don’t typically change power levels often). It’s a great thin size to fit into tight spaces. The bullet is also long enough that I can comfortably hold it between our bodies.
I can also keep good contact with my clit without angling the bullet’s base out in a way that interferes with my partner’s body.
Noise
The Nasstoys bullet is very discreet, especially for its power.
During our testing, I could use every power level without my partner hearing the vibrations from the other side of our closed bedroom door. So there’s no concern if you live with housemates.
We measured its top intensity level at 46.1 decibels – lower than most bullet vibrators with this much strength.
As someone who can be a little sensitive to noises in general, I don’t find the sound of its vibrations annoying or distracting at all. It’s a powerful, discreet bullet vibrator.
The Nu Sensuelle Point is one of the louder bullet vibrators I’ve tested, measuring 50.0 dB on high. I can use the low and middle power levels without my partner hearing the vibrations from the other side of a closed bedroom door. But when standing behind the door, he heard the upper settings easily.
Remember that the Nu Sensuelle gets pretty strong, so you still have some powerful levels to enjoy discreetly.
But if you want all power levels to be safe, the Blush Limited Addiction gets even stronger than the Nu Sensuelle Point while remaining inaudible from behind a closed door.
Battery Life
The Nasstoys Travel Vibe is rechargeable and has one of the longest-lasting batteries of the bullets we’ve tested. During our test, it lasted 105 minutes at maximum power. It’s challenging to find one this strong that lasts this long.
The Nu Sensuelle Point is rechargeable and has a pretty good battery life for its strength. In our testing, it lasted 85 minutes constantly vibrating on its maximum power. This is very convenient if you frequently forget to charge between uses like me.
Build Quality
The Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini feels well-made, and I’ve had only good, reliable experiences with it. It has a nice weight that makes it feel solid, especially compared to other budget bullet vibrators. And the body-safe ABS plastic material is very smooth and comfortable. I like the feel of the button too.
The Nu Sensuelle Point has a smooth texture, a solid feel when pressing the button, and a pretty durable feel. Though it’s not quite as heavy as the nearly identical Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini, which makes that bullet feel a little higher-quality.
Cleaning
This bullet is IPX7 waterproof, which makes cleaning very easy. You can fully submerge it while scrubbing without worrying about water causing damage.
This bullet is completely waterproof (IPX7), so you can completely submerge it while you scrub it with soap and water, making it very easy to clean!
