The Bellesa Demi Wand has 8 power levels that are all very close together and low-powered. They’re not at all what I expect from a typical wand vibrator. Demi’s power range is much more comparable to the low and middle power levels of a small bullet vibrator.

And I actually find the Demi is less powerful than my favorite bullets like the Lovense Ambi and We-Vibe Tango X (which also outperform the Demi in other aspects). So even if you are only looking for bullet-level vibration strength, I would go with one of those instead.

While I can orgasm with the Bellesa Demi Wand, it’s much easier with one of my bullets.

And if you want the typical enormous power wand vibrators are famous for: the Magic Wand Plus is in this same price range and has 6x the strength of the Bellesa Demi!

The Doxy 3 USB-C has a great top strength but a poor power range. It’s best if you prioritize strong, but not overwhelming power and don’t need gentle starting settings.

The max power of 7 out of 10 is stronger than all my non-wand vibrators. It’s more than I need, but I can still use this setting somewhat comfortably. It’s not too strong for me like other Doxy wands’ top settings.

The lack of soft and moderate settings may be problematic for some – this wand starts out strong at a 6 out of 10 intensity. If you need a gentle warmup, the Magic Wand Plus is a better option in this price range.

But I personally find the Doxy 3 USB-C’s starting level comfortable. It’s a slightly softer start than the Doxy Die Cast 3 or 3R provide, which makes a huge difference for me! I have to warm up with another toy before using the Die Cast 3 or 3R. But that slight difference in power makes the Doxy 3 USB-C comfortable to me – even without using another toy to warm up. Part of this may also be due to the frequency.

We also test and rate how rumbly or buzzy each wand vibrator is.

We award wand vibrators with more rumbly vibrations a high score in this category since most people prefer rumbly vibrations. But some people prefer more neutral or even buzzy vibrations – so a low score in Vibration Frequency may not mean a wand is a bad choice for you.

In fact, some of my favorite vibrators (like the Lovense Hyphy) are very buzzy. So it really depends on what you enjoy!

The Bellesa Demi’s lowest three power levels are actually in the rumbly range. But since this wand is so low-powered, I mostly use the highest powers.

And the three strongest settings are definitely buzzy. Other small wands like the BMS Swan Era have much more powerful, rumbly settings.

Even if you enjoy more neutral or buzzy-feeling vibrators, I’d still recommend a higher-quality bullet like the Lovense Ambi which offers a nice mix of buzziness and rumbliness.

But if you’re like most people, and want something deep and rumbly – the Lovense Domi 2 and Dame Com are some of the best wand vibrators with extremely rumbly vibrations.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer, but ultimately it’s just that – a preference.

The Doxy 3 USB-C is a buzzy wand vibrator, which I personally enjoy. But if you want rumbly settings, the Magic Wand Plus or Lovense Domi 2 are better options in this price range for you.

The Doxy 3 USB-C provides some of the highest-frequency vibrations of all my wands. It begins at 91 Hz, which is moderately buzzy, and finishes extremely buzzy at 127 Hz. These high-frequency vibrations remain more concentrated near the spot you’re pressing the wand than rumbly vibrations, helping you target a specific spot really well. But the vibrations don’t reach as far as rumbly vibes do.

I think the Doxy 3 USB-C’s combination of buzziness and power is just right for someone like me who enjoys buzzy vibes. The pricier Die Cast 3 and 3R are slightly more powerful and a bit less buzzy. As a result of their additional power, their vibrations feel overwhelming to me, and their slightly lower frequency vibrations are fatiguing when the head touches near my leg. But the Doxy 3 USB-C’s vibrations remain where I want them, and are at a comfortable intensity.

I also like leveraging my vibrators for extra firm pressure, and this is more comfortable to do with the USB-C’s buzzy vibrations because high-frequency vibrations don’t cause the wand to bump against my pubic bone (which can cause soreness) as some rumbly vibrators can.

As a fan of buzzy vibrations, I like this wand.

I found the Bellesa Demi Wand to be one of the least comfortable and more difficult wands to use.

It’s certainly not painful – none of my wand vibrators are. It’s just designed poorly for comfortable, longer sessions.

It’s a very small wand, which means you have to reach farther to place the Demi in the right spot. Whereas mid-sized and larger wands have a nice handle you can gently hold with minimal reach.

But the Bellesa Demi Wand’s extremely flexible neck is the main reason this vibrator is difficult to use. I like to press my vibrators firmly against me – it helps push the vibes deeper! But when you apply pressure with the Demi Wand, its head just flexes away.

If you want to press the Demi with any force, you need to place your fingers on the head itself and push it against you.

You can’t simply use the handle to leverage the vibrator as you can with less flexible wands like the Dame Com. Or even rigid bullet vibrators like the Lovense Ambi and We-Vibe Tango X.

The Doxy 3 USB-C is very comfortable and easy to use.

It’s a light wand with a small head, making it easy to maneuver and great for more precise stimulation. The neck is rigid, so if you’re worried about a stiff wand bumping against your pubic bone uncomfortably, you may want something with more flexibility or a plush head like the Magic Wand Plus‘s. But the small head allows me to limit contact to softer areas of my body so it stays comfortable to me.

I tend to press it at around a 45-degree angle against my body, so the rounded portion of the Doxy 3 USB-C’s head is what contacts my vulva, and this is very comfortable. However, the sudden edge where the head ends could be uncomfortable if you typically angle your wand more sharply, pressing the side of the head against you. In this case, a more rounded head like the Lovense Domi’s (rumbly) or Le Wand Dive’s (buzzy) may be more comfortable.

The slim handle is comfortable to wrap your hand around, and the controls are excellent – allowing you to increase and decrease power separately. There are 8 steady vibration powers or a pulsing pattern if you press and hold the power button.

Until you become familiar with your grip on the wand, it can be easy to accidentally press one of the buttons since they take up a lot of space on the handle. But that’s become rare as I’ve used the wand more.

The vibrations in the handle are much less than the Die Cast 3R and 3. I can feel them when I’m just holding the wand, but I don’t find them distracting while using the Doxy 3 USB-C as I did with the Die Cast models. These other Doxy wands’ vibrations also feel more fatiguing – particularly in my leg. This is not the case with the Doxy 3 USB-C, so I enjoy using this wand much more than these older, more expensive versions.

I do find the Demi Wand reasonably easy to use during sex.

The small head and compact size help it fit easily between my partner’s body and mine. I enjoy it decently in Cowgirl, Spooning, and Modified Missionary positions.

Doggystyle is the only position that using the Demi wand is just plain bad. Because it’s so small, you have to reach far to keep the head pressed to your clit – and in a position like Doggystyle where you’re also supporting your own body weight, reaching this far gets tiring.

And in every position, a major drawback is that you can’t get firm pressure because of the extremely flexible neck.

If you want a small wand with better pressure, the Blush Noje W4 is another mini wand that I enjoyed much more during sex. It’s easier to leverage, and it’s cheaper! Or you could go with a bullet like the Lovense Ambi.

If you have the budget, the BMS PalmPower Extreme has an angled head that provides incredible pressure and helps the wand fit well between bodies during sex – even with its larger size. It gets almost perfect scores in all 4 positions! And since it’s larger, it offers much more vibration power.

If you typically have sex in Doggystyle, I find medium-length or long wand vibrators are best. The Lovense Domi 2 is one of my favorites in this position!

The Doxy 3 USB-C is a good wand to use during sex!

I enjoy it most in the spooning or modified missionary positions. The small head fits easily into tight spaces, and the lightweight handle is easy to maneuver. So you can quickly make adjustments and keep the head in consistent contact with your body.

The cord does not get in the way in these positions since it’s resting on the bed, so there are minimal distractions.

I’ve noticed the cord pulls on the vibrator more often in the doggystyle and cowgirl positions since the cord is suspended in the air and the handle is so light. But you can still get great stimulation once you figure out how to position the cord.

Since the head is firm, it can be mildly uncomfortable if it gets pressed into your pubic bone during tight sex positions. It’s not as cushioned as plush heads like the Magic Wands‘. But since the head is small, this doesn’t happen frequently like it can with larger heads.

In doggystyle, the handle is long enough to rest against the bed if you want to support its weight. But the hand vibrations in the handle become more noticeable if you do this. The light weight makes it easy enough to hold up and leverage in this position anyway, even for longer periods. And this method provides the best stimulation.

Demi Lovato’s Bellesa wand is definitely very quiet.

It has one of the lowest decibel readings on both low and high power. And when my partner and I tested whether someone can hear it behind a closed door, the Demi wand remained inaudible on all power levels.

But the main reason it’s so quiet is that the Demi is very low-powered. If you want something stronger that remains discreet, the Magic Wand Rechargeable or Lelo Smart Wand 2 Large are both only audible behind a closed door on the highest power level. And each has the substantial vibration power people associate with wands.

The Doxy 3 USB-C is noisy, which is not surprising considering its strength.

When we tested its audibility in a silent house, my partner could just barely hear it from the other side of our closed bedroom door on the low and middle strengths. But it was definitely audible to him on high power.

From inside the room, I don’t find the sound of the vibrations distracting. The pricier metal versions have a really grating sound to them which I find incredibly distracting (listen below). But the Doxy 3 USB-C’s vibrations sound much cleaner, quieter, and don’t bother me at all (listen above).

If you have housemates and need to be discreet, the Doxy 3 USB-C’s noise is easily drowned out by a box fan or music in the bedroom. Otherwise, the Le Wand Dive is quieter, and my favorite buzzy wand.

The Bellesa Demi is compatible with very few attachments. Of the more than 25 wand attachments we own, it’s only compatible with Lovehoney’s Queen G (a G-spot attachment designed for the Lovehoney Deluxe Mini Massage Wand)

Most attachments are designed for full-sized wands like the Magic Wand Rechargeable (among others). While most attachments fit a range of wands, very few are designed to fit tiny heads like the Bellesa Demi’s. If you value attachment compatibility, consider the Magic Wand Plus or Rechargeable.

The Doxy 3 USB-C has great compatibility with attachments. Doxy has their own line of attachments, which screw right onto the head. Several non-Doxy attachments also fit over the head, including the Le Wand Petite attachments.

You can find attachments offering a wide variety of stimulation that are compatible with this wand, even though it has a smaller head. For more specifics, you can check our wand attachment compatibility table here.

We test our wands with the Liberator’s wand mounts – the Axis and Wanda. These mounts are designed to hold your wand vibrator so you can enjoy hands-free clit stimulation.

Unfortunately, the Demi wand is too small for either mount. As with wand attachments, wand mounts are designed for mid to full-sized wand vibrators.

If you value hands-free play – the BMS PalmPower Extreme and Dame Com are my favorites to use with both wand mounts. They have an angled head or a curved handle, which helps them provide better pressure and clitoral contact when held in the Liberator Axis mount. And more angles to try in the Wanda mount.

I test my wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts for hands-free stimulation.

The Doxy 3 USB-C does not work well with the Axis but is excellent with the Wanda mount.

In the Axis, the head is too small to stimulate well, and it’s not angled upward enough, so it’s difficult to get good pressure on your clit. Wands with a larger head like the Magic Wand Plus or angled head like the BMS PalmPower Extreme, work better in the Liberator Axis.

In the Liberator Wanda, the Doxy 3 USB-C is positioned at a great height to kneel above during penetration from behind. It provides excellent, comfortable contact so you can enjoy the vibes hands-free.

You can also sit down on the mount for hands-free stimulation. This position is only possible with handles that aren’t too long, like the Doxy 3 USB-C’s, and it’s a great setup for solo hands-free fun.

The Bellesa Demi wand has a pretty short battery life. I test all my wands’ battery life by charging them fully – then letting them run on high power until they die.

The Demi Wand lasted only 55 minutes. And since it’s pretty low-powered, most people will be cranking it on high the whole time – so there’s not much room to extend the battery life by mixing in lower strengths.
If you value longer play sessions the Lovense Domi will give you at least two hours of play. Or the Magic Wand Rechargeable lasts over 4 hours!

The Doxy 3 USB-C is a plug-in wand with a 9.5-foot cord. You don’t have to worry about keeping this wand charged, but you do have to be near an outlet to play, so it’s not as mobile-friendly as rechargeable wands.

The USB-C cable is not as common as a typical USB. If you don’t already have a USB-C to wall outlet adapter, you’ll need to purchase a 5V/3A USB-C plug adapter to use this wand.

The silicone on my Demi Wand has a nice texture and feels high-quality.  I’ve not had any issues with it breaking, though the neck is very flexible, and I am a little suspicious that it won’t have the longest life. Because it has very weak vibrations, you’ll likely be pressing and bending this wand very hard, so it has to take some wear and tear.

The Doxy 3 USB-C has good build quality.

The lightweight ABS Plastic handle is not as luxurious-feeling as metal or silicone-coated wands. But it still feels solid and well-built. And the threaded part of the removable head is still made of metal for durability.

The cord attaches securely and has a knitted coating for protection. The buttons can be a little unresponsive sometimes if you don’t push them firmly, but it just takes some getting used to.

Doxy also has a 2-year warranty when you register your wand for free on their site.
