Power vs Frequency Graph
How Strong Is Each Power? 

The Le Wand Dive has a narrow but strong power range, skipping over gentle settings and focusing on moderate to high strength. Its 10 power levels take you through a gradual journey in this range.

Compared to other Le Wand models, the Dive is similarly strong to the Le Wand Die Cast and full-sized models, and about 57% stronger than the Petite models.

All Le Wands from Strongest to Weakest
The Le Wands from strongest to weakest. From left to right: Le Wand Die Cast Plug-In, Dive, Die Cast Rechargeable, full-sized Rechargeable, full-sized Plug-In, Petite Plug-In, and Petite Rechargeable.

This wand feels great when I want strong, buzzy stimulation without fumbling through too many lower levels – I personally enjoy this wand’s intensity range and find the lowest setting comfortable without a prior warmup.

But if you’re sensitive to intensity or like a slow build, this wand may feel overstimulating to you. Plenty of wands have wider power ranges at this price. For instance, the BMS PalmPower Extreme starts at a soft 2 out of 10 strength and reaches a stronger top power.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an excellent power, starting gently and reaching an extreme top strength.

The first setting has a soft 1.9 out of 10 strength, which provides a comfortable warmup and is important in preventing overstimulation with the intensity this wand reaches on high. There are 4 power settings, and the second setting is already enough for me. I don’t even need to use the next two settings, but power lovers will enjoy these.

The max power is more than most of my wands provide at a 9 out of 10 strength. Only one wand gets stronger than this – the Doxy Die Cast. But the Magic Wand Waterproof’s top strength will be more than enough for most people, and gives a wide range for a comfortable journey.

The Waterproof’s 4 intensities are nearly identical to the Magic Wand Plus, and they’re stronger than the Magic Wand Rechargeable. Making it a great fit for those who want the intensity of the Plus, but the cord-free convenience of the Rechargeable.


Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)

Frequency on Low Power 77 Hz 40 Hz

Power and Frequency Balance 6.3 7.4

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. However, this is an area of personal preference, so consider what you like. I enjoy buzzy vibrations myself.

The Le Wand Dive is very buzzy. The first two settings have a neutral feel, and all higher settings have a buzzy frequency. Only a few of my wands reach buzzier top settings. This is great if you prefer a high-intensity zing near the surface.

It’s my pick for the best buzzy wand because it has better performance across the board than my other buzzy wands – and I just enjoy the feeling of this wand’s vibrations. I enjoy neutral and buzzy vibrations for targeting a precise area – these vibrations stimulate more near the point of contact than rumbly vibrations which travel deep and spread farther.

If you prefer entirely rumbly vibrations, the We-Vibe Wand 2 is better for you. Or if you want a rumbly start with neutral vibes on high for a targeted feel, try the BMS PalmPower Extreme.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. However, this is an area of personal preference, so consider what you like best!

The Magic Wand Waterproof’s first two settings are rumbly, but the top setting is extremely buzzy.

This still provides a good amount of power in the rumbly range. Since I rarely go past the second level, most of my experience is with low-frequency vibes that travel deep. And if I do venture up higher, the rumbly experience at the start has me warmed-up and ready for the neutral-feeling third setting. This frequency range is great if you want some, but not entirely rumbly settings.

Compared to other Magic Wands, the Waterproof has higher-frequency vibrations on its upper settings. This provides a more surface-level kick once you get to levels three and four, which some will enjoy. But if you prioritize rumbliness on all settings, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is a better choice (though it is about 17% weaker).

The Le Wand Dive is very comfortable and easy to use.

I find the Dive’s handle size the most comfortable of all Le Wand’s line (the same as the Le Wand Die Cast models). The Dive is easy to wrap your hand around, and the length is excellent for leverage and reach. It doesn’t transfer the vibes into your hand, and the neck is strong enough to leverage for firm pressure.

Le Wand Head Size of Dive with Petite and Rechargeable
The Le Wand Dive’s head (middle) is in between the sizes of the Le Wand Petite (left) and full-sized Le Wand Rechargeable (right).

The head size is between the Petite and Le Wand’s full-sized models. You can limit contact to a fairly precise area, but it’s broader than most mini wands, so you get the best of both worlds. The head is firm but doesn’t press uncomfortably like the larger wand’s head because you can limit contact to comfortable areas.

Its 15.7 ounce weight is lighter than most full-sized wands, making it easy to move around quickly, but it’s still heavy enough to apply a bit of natural downward pressure.

You can increase and decrease strength with separate buttons to find your ideal setting easily. You don’t have to cycle through the power levels like you often do with cheaper wands.

Le Wand Dive Controls
The Le Wand Dive’s controls, allowing increasing or decreasing power and cycling through patterns with the center button.

When it comes to the 19 vibration patterns, you do have to cycle through these with a single button. Most wand-users are after the steady vibrations, so this only affects those who use patterns frequently. You can power the wand off and back on again to start over – there is no memory setting (which is good, as I find memory features are usually more frustrating than helpful).

The Dive is the only waterproof wand in the Le Wand line with an impressive IPX8 rating, making it very easy to clean! You can completely submerge it while scrubbing.

For a full-sized wand, the Magic Wand Waterproof is very comfortable and easy to use.

Magic Wand Waterproof Handle Comparison with Magic Wand Rechargeable
The Magic Wand Waterproof’s handle (bottom) is a bit wider and longer than the Magic Wand Rechargeable (top).

The handle is slightly bigger and heavier than the Magic Wand Plus and Rechargeable. So it takes a little more effort to wrap your hand around and maneuver. However, the handle is still very comfortable, and the thick handle dampens the vibrations in your hand very well. If you prefer a slim handle, you may be bothered, but the grippy plastic makes for a firm, comfortable grip. When the handle is wet, it’s a little more slippery, but it’s still easy to grip and maneuver.

The plush head provides a cushioned feel that keeps the wand comfy when applying firm pressure. The squishy, cylindrical-shaped head is the same size as popular Plus and Rechargeable models. That unique shape helps to vary the contact area – more precise using the rim of the cylinder, and broader stimulation using the side.

Magic Wand Cylinder Head Precise vs Broad Stimulation
The cylindrical-shaped head allows you to vary the contact area – precise stimulation using the cylinder’s rim and broad stimulation using the side of the head.

The slightly flexible neck moves with your body, but still allows you to press hard if you enjoy applying firm pressure. The extra weight of this wand applies natural downward pressure too – you can just rest the wand against your body without having to leverage it.

Closeup on Magic Wand Waterproof’s Controls
The Magic Wand Waterproof’s excellent controls allow you to cycle through 4 power settings with the top button, and cycle through the 4 patterns with the bottom button.

The buttons are well-placed and easy to reach without getting in the way. You cycle through the four power levels with one button and through the patterns with another. Typically, I prefer controls that allow you to increase and decrease power (like the Plus), but since there are only four power levels and patterns are on a separate button, it’s easy to quickly get to the setting you want.

The IPX7 waterproof rating also makes it easy to clean this wand – you can completely submerge it during use or when cleaning it.


Use During Sex


Use During Sex Rating 8.8 9.1
Le Wand Dive Fit in Tight Space
Magic Wand Waterproof Fit in Tight Space
Spooning 9.0 9.5
Doggystyle 10.0 9.5
Modified Missionary 8.5 9.0
Cowgirl 7.5 8.5

The Le Wand Dive is excellent to use during sex.

The medium-sized head fits comfortably between bodies without bumping into my pubic bone or causing distracting leg vibrations. But it’s still broad enough to spread the vibes comfortably.

Whether you’re in spooning, missionary, or doggystyle, keeping it in place and getting strong stimulation and good contact is easy.

In doggystyle, the long handle gives you enough reach and even lets you rest the handle’s base on the bed, so you don’t have to hold the wand up. In modified missionary, the contact was great, and while the longer handle could occasionally bump into some people’s chest, I didn’t find it a problem.

Le Wand Dive and Magic Wand Rechargeable
The Le Wand Dive (left) with the Magic Wand Rechargeable (right).

In really tight positions like modified missionary, I found myself wishing for a more plush head (like the Magic Wand Rechargeable’s), which would be even more comfortable. But it’s still comfortable either way. In cowgirl, leaning back slightly will give you the best angle/contact.

The Magic Wand Waterproof is excellent to use during sex, especially for a full-sized wand.

The cylindrical head shape makes it easier to get close, direct contact than most full-sized wands allow, even in positions where close contact is normally difficult like Cowgirl. Unlike a round head that doesn’t fill in angled spaces, the cylinder’s rim fills in space between two barriers for better contact and pressure as shown below.

Magic Wand Cylindrical Head vs Round Head in Tight Spaces
Cylindrical heads (left) reach better into tight spaces than round heads (right).

It’s best in more open positions like Spooning and Doggystyle where there’s plenty of space to maneuver the wand. The long handle is also easy to prop on the bed to support it, which is helpful since this wand is heavy. The large head spreads contact evenly, for comfortable and very stimulating vibes.

In Modified Missionary, the cushioned head is especially comfortable. Because space is tight in this position, your partner’s body will often press the wand’s head firmly against you. With firmer wands, this can be uncomfortable, but the Waterproof’s plush head provides a soft cushion.

You can also rest the wand flat against your body in this position and let its natural weight provide good pressure. This is great, as leveraging the wand is tricky in this position since it’s large and space is limited, but it’s still doable if you need to.

Magic Wand Mini and Magic Wand Waterproof
The Magic Wand Mini (left) is smaller and more easily maneuverable compared to the Magic Wand Waterproof (right).

If you want something quick and easy to move around, the smaller Magic Wand Mini may be better. But for a full-sized wand with extreme top strength, the Magic Wand Waterproof is very comfortable and provides the weighty feel that allows you to rest the wand with less effort put towards leveraging.


Noise


Noise Rating 7.6 5.4
Decibels on Low Power 35 dB 46.1 dB
Decibels on High Power 49.3 dB 60.2 dB
Audibility Behind Closed Door 6.0 4.0
Low Power Inaudible Inaudible
Middle Power Audible Audible
High Power Audible Audible
High Power with Box Fan Inaudible Audible
High Power with Music Inaudible Inaudible

The Le Wand Dive has reasonable noise levels considering its strength, but it’s not the most discreet.

The lower vibrations are quiet, and in our test, my partner could not hear them from the other side of the bedroom door. Once we reached medium and high strengths, he could hear the vibrations, but a box fan or music masked this noise easily.

If powerful but discreet vibrations are a priority, consider the We-Vibe Wand 2.

The Magic Wand Waterproof is very loud – mainly on the higher settings. While I wouldn’t expect a wand this strong to be quiet, it’s even louder than other wands with this much power. As someone sensitive to noise, I find it distracting, and I prefer the Magic Wand Plus or Rechargeable for this reason.

The first setting was inaudible to my partner from the other side of the bedroom door. But every other setting was noticeable. Even turning on a box fan did not mask the noise of the top setting. Only playing music could drown out the sound completely.

The We-Vibe Wand 2 (demonstrated here) is much quieter than the Magic Wand Waterproof.

If discretion is important, or you’re easily distracted by sounds, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is more discreet, or the We-Vibe Wand 2 is an especially quiet wand!

Compatibility with Wanda 7.4 7.5

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. The Le Wand Dive works decently with both.

The Axis holds your wand angled up while you lie across the mount on your stomach. The Le Wand Dive’s size fits well in the Axis, and the head provides good vibrations, but only mediocre pressure.

So it’s not as effective as a large, plush head like the Magic Wand Rechargeable that keeps more surface area in contact with your body. You’ll achieve the best pressure with the Le Wand Dive and Axis if you prop the wand-end of the mount up a bit higher than usual to raise the head.

Le Wand Dive in Axis Mount Tilted Upward
You can tilt the wand upward to get better pressure when pairing the Le Wand Dive with the Axis mount.

The Wanda holds the Dive more upright while you straddle the mount for hands-free stimulation. The mid-sized head is comfortable to press against and sits at a good height to use a few different ways. You can get good stimulation when sitting directly on the mount, or kneeling above it during penetration from behind. Though again, the broader contact of a full-sized head can be even more comfortable.

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts for hands-free play. The Magic Wand Waterproof does well in both!

In the Axis, you lie over the mount on your stomach, and the Magic Wand Waterproof is held at a slightly upward angle between your legs. The large, tall head provides a broad surface area to press against and consistent contact with my clit. And the head’s plushness keeps the pressure very comfortable.

The Wanda mount holds the wand upright for use while kneeling or in doggystyle. Since the handle is a bit thicker than the Plus and Rechargeable, you have to push it down further in the mount in order for it to sit at the right height. But since the mount is cushioned and flexible, this is easy to do. Once you’ve positioned it well, the broad head is very comfortable and maintains consistent contact with my clit, which is especially important during hands-free use since you can’t adjust the wand yourself.

The Le Wand Dive is rechargeable and has a great battery life, lasting 105 minutes on high power in our test. This is great if you want longer sessions or frequently forget to charge between uses.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an outstanding battery life. In our test, it ran continuously on its highest setting for 197 minutes (over 3 hours) before dying. This is one of the longest runtimes of any rechargeable wand we’ve tested which is fantastic if you often forget to charge your toys. And this is especially long-lasting considering how strong this wand is. While the Magic Wand Rechargeable lasted a bit longer (248 minutes), it’s not as powerful as the Waterproof.

Magic Wand Waterproof and Port Cap
The port cap should be added back on when the Magic Wand Waterproof is not being charged.

It has an automatic shutoff every 20 minutes to protect its motor (though you can turn it back on immediately). Unlike the Magic Wand Rechargeable, the Waterproof cannot be used while charging. It comes with a small silicone cap to cover the charging port when not plugged in. The manual says to keep the port cap on when washing, and if water gets into the charging port, make sure to wipe it off.


Build Quality


Build Quality Rating 9.5 9.5

The Le Wand Dive has excellent build quality. The weightiness and grippy plastic handle feel sturdy, and the seams are well put together. The silicone head is very smooth, and the buttons have a quality feel that seems long-lasting.

The fact that it has an IPX8 waterproof rating, which undergoes more intense testing than the usual IPX7 testing may also be an indicator of an improved build and greater durability.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has excellent build quality. The plastic handle feels solid and sturdy, and the silicone head is plush and high-quality. The buttons are responsive and comfortable to press. Overall, it feels like a well-made, premium wand.

Le Wand Dive Waterproof Rating Demonstration
Magic Wand Waterproof Waterproof Rating Demonstration

The Le Wand Dive has an IPX8 waterproof rating, meaning that it’s fully submersible in water (like IPX7 products are).

According to Le Wand, the Dive can be used underwater at depths up to 3 feet and has been tested to resist water intrusion for over two hours in those conditions. That makes it a great option if you enjoy using toys in the bath.

To receive an IPX8 rating, a product must pass testing under conditions more severe than IPX7 testing, which requires surviving submersion at 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, IPX8 doesn’t have fixed parameters – instead, the manufacturer defines the specific depth and duration tested. In Le Wand’s case, that means 3 feet of submersion and 2+ hours of operation underwater, which exceeds the standard IPX7 threshold.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an IPX7 rating, which means it has been independently tested and verified that the wand can be fully submerged in up to 3 feet of water, for up to 30 minutes.

However, the user manual instructs you to keep the included silicone cap over the charging port when cleaning. It is unclear whether the wand maintains its IPX7 rating if the cap is not in place. We have contacted the manufacturer for clarification but have not yet received a response. To be safe, we recommend keeping the port covered with the cap whenever you use the wand in or around water.
