The Pillow Talk Flirty has gentle to mid-level power. It’s excellent for those who prefer milder vibrations or get overstimulated by intense power. 

To move through its power range, you press and hold the button to increase power gradually. As a result, steps between intensity levels are subtle and comfortable. And the Flirty covers the mild to moderate power range very well. 

The lowest power starts at 1.5 out of 10 vibration strength, but the highest only reaches 5 out of 10. When I use the Pillow Talk Flirty, I can orgasm from it, but it takes some effort. So it’s not one I reach for often, but it can be great for those overstimulated by intense power.

If you prefer more power, consider the Blush Limited Addiction in this price range. It’s stronger but lacks gentle levels. Or, if you want to keep those low powers but add some strength, try the slightly more expensive Pillow Talk Racy.

The We-Vibe Tango X has an excellent power range that provides gentle, moderate, and strong power levels. It begins with 2.5 out of 10 vibration strength. The comfortable soft settings are great while warming up or for those overstimulated by intensity. 

The upper power levels are strong, reaching a 7.75 out of 10 strength. I easily orgasm with the Tango X but typically use its top setting. There are some with more extreme power, like the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet or BMS Swan Maximum Bullet, for those who crave immense intensity. But I don’t personally need more strength than the Tango X provides.

The Tango X has improved on the original We-Vibe Tango in that it has 8 power levels instead of 4. So, the new model covers its power range more completely with many gradual steps between intensity levels. You can work up to its top power very slowly. Or if you’re easily overstimulated, you have many gentle or moderate power levels to enjoy. 

Most people will enjoy the We-Vibe Tango X’s vibrations. Few bullets have as wide a range of power as this one.

We rate rumbly vibrators higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people want. But preferences vary, so consider what you enjoy.

The Pillow Talk Flirty has below-average rumbliness. Its softest power levels are in the rumbly range, but most people will use these gentle levels only briefly while warming up. Its stronger power levels range from neutral-feeling to moderately buzzy.

It can be enjoyable if you prefer buzzy vibrations. But I find the mild power paired with the buzzy frequency packs little impact. So it’s best if you like light stimulation. I enjoy neutral or moderately buzzy vibrations, but typically when paired with more strength than the Flirty has.

You’ll need to increase your budget slightly if you prefer rumbly vibrations. The Pillow Talk Racy is the most affordable bullet with great rumbliness. Or you could go with a mini wand like the BMS Swan Era, which is even more rumbly than the Racy, and not much pricier.

The We-Vibe Tango X is the most rumbly bullet vibrator I own. This is one of the main reasons to consider this bullet. 

Its rumbliness is especially impressive considering the Tango X’s strength. Vibrators become buzzier as you increase power. But even its top setting (7.75 out of 10 power) measured at 58 Hz in our test results, which is extremely rumbly. No other bullet besides the Tango X and Tango had more than 5.0 vibration strength while remaining under 60 Hz (our threshold for the “extremely rumbly” range).

Now, rumbliness vs buzziness is a personal preference. Although most people prefer rumbly vibrations, some want neutral or even buzzy vibes. If that’s you, consider the Pillow Talk Racy if you like neutral vibrations or the Lovense Ambi for moderately buzzy vibrations.

The We-Vibe Tango X is the best if you’re like most people and want those deep-feeling, rumbly vibrations. If you enjoy larger toys with more extreme power, you could also consider the We-Vibe Wand 2 – one of my best wand vibrators with exceptionally rumbly vibrations.

The Pillow Talk Flirty provides a medium amount of precision for a bullet. The tip is slightly bulbous, spreading out the vibrations a bit and making it comfortable to press firmly against my body. 

It’s less precise than tapered and lipstick-shaped bullet vibrators. But it’s more focused than broad mini vibrators like the Dame Pom or We-Vibe Touch X. The amount of precision you enjoy is entirely a personal preference.

The We-Vibe Tango X provides focused stimulation due to its thin width (0.69 inches) and lipstick-shaped tip. The lipstick tip comes to a fine edge that you can use to target the vibrations into an exact area. 

Rumbly vibrations travel deep into the body and feel like they naturally impact a more significant area, so limiting the contact to a particular spot is nice.

If you want slightly broader stimulation, you can use the long side of the Tango X to spread out the contact area more.

The Pillow Talk Flirty is a very comfortable bullet that’s easy to use. It’s relatively long for a bullet vibrator (4.3 inches), making it very comfortable to grip, leverage, and apply pressure. The vibrations don’t travel into my hand much, so the grip is fantastic. And the button to adjust power is easily within my reach without needing to change my hold on the bullet. 

The control system takes some getting used to, but is straightforward once you learn it. Hold the Flirty’s button, and the bullet will gradually increase power. Once it reaches your desired strength, you release the button. To move back down, you’ll need to double-click the button to begin again at the gentlest setting. 

I prefer vibrators with two buttons to increase and decrease power, but I like that the Flirty’s system inherently provides gradual, subtle steps between intensity levels.

The We-Vibe Tango X is an exceptionally comfortable and easy-to-use bullet. 

It has better controls than other bullet vibrators. Unlike most bullets, which offer a single button to cycle through all the intensity levels and patterns, the Tango X has separate buttons to increase and decrease power; and a third button to move through its vibration patterns. 

The three buttons allow you to quickly access your desired intensity or pattern and avoid annoying disruptions searching for your favorite power level.

The rigid form makes it easy to leverage and apply pressure even with its average length. I love the silicone grip on the handle, and the vibrations do not travel much into my hand, so it’s very comfortable.

The Pillow Talk Flirty is easy to use during sex. It’s best in a spooning position or others where you’re facing away from your partner. The relatively slender size is great for fitting into tight spots. And since it has a slight flex, it’s very comfortable and able to keep great contact, even with a bit of jostling around. The slight flexibility makes it a bit more difficult to apply pressure during sex, but still easier than most bullets since it’s longer.

Positions where you’re facing your partner are a little trickier because you have to angle the toy so the end of it doesn’t hit your partner’s chest. But since it’s not a very long toy, it’s very doable. It just takes some intentionality.

While the Pillow Talk Flirty is good during sex, I have even better success with the Pillow Talk Racy because the tip of the toy curves inward. This helps to maintain good contact without having to angle the bullet in a way that contacts my partner’s chest.

The We-Vibe Tango X is awesome during sex! The rumbly vibrations travel deep into your body, so you don’t have to worry about placing the bullet in a precise spot. The thin, focused tip lets you easily slip the Tango X into tight spaces, and it maintains good contact wherever you place it.

I like that the Tango X is a bit longer than the original Tango because it makes for a more comfortable grip. You don’t need to pinch the end with your fingers; the handle has more space to sit comfortably in your hand so you can leverage the Tango X more easily. 

This length also helps to limit how far you have to reach during sex. But it’s not so long that it bumps against my partner’s chest or gets in the way.

The Pillow Talk Flirty is one of my quietest bullet vibrators! While recording its decibel readings with our Sound Level Meter, it was quieter than the room’s ambient sound. When I’m using it in our bedroom, my partner cannot hear it from the other side of the closed door on any power levels. So it’s safe to use if you live with others.

The discreet noise is no surprise since it’s only mid-powered. If you want something quiet but prefer stronger bullet vibrators, consider the Pillow Talk Racy.

The We-Vibe Tango X’s noise performance is mediocre and may be disappointing if you’re especially worried about discretion. But there are ways to make it completely unnoticeable.

When measuring the Tango X’s noise with a Sound Level Meter, the Tango X’s vibrations measured quieter than the average bullet vibrator. However, when I hold the Tango X loosely in my hand, it will occasionally make a rattling sound that my partner can hear while standing on the other side of our closed bedroom door. 

When you press the Tango X to your body or grip the bullet more firmly, the rattling does not happen. And the rumbly vibrations themselves are inaudible from the other side of the closed door. If you don’t want to be distracted focusing on keeping the Tango X pressed to your body, you can turn a box fan on or play music in the bedroom. Both options successfully masked the rattling sound so my partner could not hear it outside the bedroom. 

The We-Vibe Touch X is my quietest mini-vibrator if you’d like a more discreet option. Otherwise, the Tango X just takes a little creativity to prevent nosey housemates from hearing.

The Flirty’s battery life is short compared to most bullets, especially when you consider its low power range. You’ll definitely want to make sure to charge it fully between each use.

If you’re the type to forget to charge it (like me), you’ll want to pick something with a longer battery life. The Je Joue Classic is a great option. And even though the Blush Limited Addiction’s battery life isn’t much higher, you can extend it even further if you use some low or middle power levels.

The We-Vibe Tango X is rechargeable with one of the longest-lasting batteries of any bullet vibrator I’ve tested. It lasted 105 minutes on high power during our test – especially impressive considering its excellent vibration strength. The few bullets that lasted longer, like the Dame Zee and Satisfyer Ultra Power Bullet 5, are weaker than the Tango X.

It’s a great option if you forget to charge your toys between uses or enjoy long sessions!

The Pillow Talk Flirty has an excellent build quality, especially for an inexpensive bullet vibrator. The silicone feels smooth, but grippy and is luxurious. And the slight flexibility makes it comfortable, but it still feels sturdy. I’m not concerned about breaking it with too much pressure.

The We-Vibe Tango X has excellent build quality. The silicone handle and buttons are a nice improvement on the original Tango. The silicone adds some padding, which reassures me that it’s less likely to break if I drop it. And it adds a luxurious feel and grip.

The ABS Plastic is comfortably smooth and feels sturdy – not overly lightweight or cheap. The bullet feels well-made overall.

The Pillow Talk Flirty is IPX6 water-resistant, which makes it very easy to clean. IPX6 products can resist “high-pressure, heavy sprays of water” so you can wash it under a faucet without worrying about damaging the toy. Just clean with soap and water.

The We-Vibe Tango X is 100% waterproof, which makes it very easy to clean. You can submerge this bullet while scrubbing it with soap and water without fear of damage.
