Power vs Frequency Graph
How Strong Is Each Power? 

The Large Lelo Smart Wand 2 reaches a top strength that’s definitely stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators. Though it’s not extreme like other full-sized wands.

I personally prefer moderate strength – I rarely (or never) use the top settings of ultrapowerful wands like the Doxy Die Cast or Magic Wand Plus. So I’m happy with the Smart Wand’s power, but people who want immense strength may consider one of those.

The vibrations also begin very gently (1 out of 10 vibration strength), and there are several intensity levels with tiny, gradual steps between each level. This is something Lelo usually does well – they rarely design a vibrator with large gaps between levels. So people who prefer milder stimulation or need soft levels for a warmup have plenty to enjoy before turning the power up.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In has a good range of power, spanning gentle to moderate strengths – the same as the rechargeable version. This is comparable to the strength of mid-sized non-wand vibrators, but is less than half the strength of my strongest wands.

The Petite Plug-In works well for those worried about overstimulation because the 10 power levels climb very gradually in strength. So you don’t have to worry about large jumps in power that may feel overwhelming if you’re not used to wand-like strength.

However, if you like moderate intensity, there are other moderately powerful wands, like the Magic Wand Mini, that perform better overall.

If you’re looking for the intense power typically associated with wands, this one may fall short. In this price range, the BMS PalmPower Extreme is nearly twice as strong while still starting gently.

The Large Lelo Smart Wand has some of the most rumbly vibrations I’ve ever felt – even on high power! Its vibrations are much lower frequency than the We-Vibe Tango X – a small bullet vibrator famous for its excellent rumbliness.

Most people prefer deep, rumbly vibrations. But the Large Lelo Smart Wand 2’s vibrations are so exceptionally rumbly that they feel very different from what most people are used to. You’ll have a strong opinion about the Smart Wand 2 – positive or negative!

Many who crave deep, rumbly vibes will absolutely love how these low-frequency vibrations feel. And others will discover that they actually prefer only moderately rumbly vibrations. Or stronger rumbly vibrations like the Orion Grande Wand provides.

I personally enjoy the Lelo’s rumbly vibrations if I hold it lightly against my clit. But I typically prefer firm pressure – and when I press these deep vibrations firmly into me, they’re so rumbly that I feel them spread throughout a large area of my body. I can even feel some residual vibes in my stomach. They don’t hone in and target my clit directly.

Many who love wands for their broad, deep stimulation will enjoy this quality. Others will want something less rumbly with vibrations that don’t travel quite as deep. I personally prefer wands that are still moderately rumbly, but not quite as low-frequency like the Magic Wand Rechargeable.

If you want pure rumbles, the Lelo wand definitely delivers!

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer this. But this is really a personal preference, so select based on what you like.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In has rumbly vibrations on only the softest settings. Most of the vibrations have a neutral or buzzy feel. It’s actually buzzier than the rechargeable version, because the motor doesn’t slow down when you press it against you.

I enjoy neutral and buzzy vibrations at this strength, but if you prioritize rumbliness, the Lovense Domi 2 is better at this price.

The Smart Wand 2 is decently comfortable and easy to use.

The head (and most of the wand) is coated in a comfortable, smooth silicone. But the head is fairly firm with only slight flexibility. This makes it easier to apply substantial pressure, but also detracts a small amount from comfort.

Since the head is large, it’s best for broad stimulation rather than precise placement. Its bulky head doesn’t fit easily into tight spaces. But since the vibrations are so rumbly, they spread throughout a broad area of your body near the point of contact. So pinpoint placement isn’t really necessary.

Compared to other full-sized wands, it’s a relatively light weight. So it’s easier to maneuver than heavy wands.

I find it easy to keep a firm grasp on the grippy handle. Its slender, curved shape provides several ways for you to comfortably grip the wand. But I feel the vibrations in the handle, which can be distracting if you’re sensitive to that.

The controls are easy to use, provide three separate buttons to increase power, decrease power, and cycle through vibration patterns. This is my favorite control system so that I don’t have to cycle through all the power levels to go back to a lower intensity. It’s quick and convenient for getting exactly what you want.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In is very comfortable and easy to use with excellent controls.

The handle is slim enough to wrap your hand around easily, a good length to leverage, and the vibrations in my hand are minimal and not distracting. You can get firm pressure easily because the neck is only slightly flexible. And the smaller head allows you to limit contact to specific areas, which helps keep it comfortable since it’s so firm.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In’s excellent buttons to increase and decrease power, or cycle through patterns.

You can increase and decrease strength with separate buttons and adjust the intensity of each vibration pattern. The buttons are within easy reach and well-placed, so you don’t accidentally press them while gripping the wand.


Use During Sex

Spooning 7.5 9.0
Doggystyle 8.3 9.0
Modified Missionary 8.5 8.5
Cowgirl 6.5 8.5

The Large Lelo Smart Wand 2 provides strong, broad vibrations during sex. And I’d recommend it as long as you’re ok maneuvering a full-sized wand around.

The Smart Wand’s broad head requires you to be more conscious of how you angle your body in some positions than a small wand. For instance, in Cowgirl I need to lean slightly backward to open up more space to fit the Smart Wand’s head near my clit. In more open positions like Spooning you can easily position the head on your clit and leverage the Smart Wand 2.

For a full-sized wand it’s lightweight, so maneuvering it isn’t too difficult, but it’s still more tiring than small wands like the Lovense Domi 2. But with the Smart Wand 2’s length you can typically find a way to prop the wand on its handle to support the weight. For instance, in Doggystyle, I rest the base of the handle on the bed which keeps my arms from getting tired.

In some positions like Missionary, I prefer to hold the wand near the head to put less strain on my wrist. The Lelo Smart Wand’s handle is pretty thick here which is a bit awkward for my small hands. It’s minimal discomfort – and if you typically grip near the handle’s base (where it’s slimmer) or have larger hands this won’t be an issue.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In’s small head and medium size make it excellent to use during sex.

In positions facing your partner, the head fits into tight spots easily, so you can get direct contact, resulting in good stimulation.

The handle is easy to leverage – long enough that you don’t have to reach down too far, but not so long that the handle bumps against your partner. In doggystyle, this is a good length to rest against the bed if you don’t want to hold the wand up.

The head can feel a bit firm in any position, but it only becomes uncomfortable with aggressive movement. In which case, the Magic Wand Mini’s plush head is better.

The Smart Wand 2 Large is a reasonably discreet wand. We test whether my partner can hear each wand standing directly on the other side of the closed door while I use the wand in the bedroom.

He cannot hear the middle or lower power levels. But he can hear the upper powers. This is pretty typical for a wand with this much vibration strength. But if you turn on a box fan or music in the bedroom, it completely masks the sound of the Smart Wand 2 Large even on high power.

It’s vibrations are also very low-frequency which tends to be less noticeable – they sound more like background noise than buzzy vibrators. So this is a good option if you live with others and need to remain discreet.

NOTE: This product has gotten louder over time. We’re unsure if it’s due to the wear and tear we put on the product in our unique testing and storage habits. The Noise Test Results currently represented for this product are based on our original testing when the product was new, since this is what you would receive upon ordering.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In is very quiet, making it great for those who need to be discreet. My partner could not hear it from behind our closed bedroom door on any of its settings.


Attachment Compatibility

Number of Attachments Rating 9.6 5.0
Stimulation Variety 10.0 10.0

Since the Lelo Smart Wand 2 Large has a head similar in size to other well-known brands like Magic Wand, it’s compatible with a broad variety of wand attachments. You can find a compatible attachment for nearly any type of stimulation including G-spot, anal, prostate, penis, clitoral, and dual-stimulation.

For the most part all the wand attachments we’ve tested that work with the Magic Wands also work with the Large Lelo Smart Wand 2. We’ve only encountered one so far that fit the Magic Wand, and was a bit loose on the Smart Wand – but even this attachment (which is actually designed for the Bodywand) was still useable.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In has great compatibility with attachments for a mini wand. Most attachments are designed for wands with full-sized heads, but Le Wand has several attachments designed specifically for this wand. The Lovense Domi‘s attachments and a few others also fit well. You’ll have plenty of options if you want the ability to vary stimulation type with attachments.

Compatibility with Wanda 8.0 7.5

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

The Lelo Wand works perfectly with the Axis mount! With this wedge-shaped mount, I lie on my stomach across the Axis as it holds the wand slightly upward between my legs.

This wand has 2 major aspects that give it an exceptional fit with the Axis: an upward curve, and a broad head.

The upward curve positions the Smart Wand’s head closer to my clit than straight wands. So it easily stays in contact with my clit and provides good pressure. I don’t need to focus on keeping my body in contact with the wand – I can just lie on the mount and enjoy the vibrations.

And the large round head provides a broad surface that disperses the pressure comfortably along my vulva. And its size helps it maintain good contact with my clit in addition to the upward curve.

It stays firmly in place, so I don’t have to worry about it shifting around.

This wand works well with the Wanda mount too. This mount holds the wand upright, as you straddle the mount. The Lelo Smart Wand’s head rests at a comfortable height to kneel over. Or you can lean forward onto your hands and knees. But it sits too high to comfortably lower your weight onto the wand and grind as you can with some smaller wands.

The smooth head provides a great, broad surface for even, comfortable pressure in that kneeling position or on your hands and knees.

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. The Le Wand Petite Plug-In works pretty well with both.

The Axis holds your wand at an angle while you lie across it on your stomach. While the Le Wand Petite’s head is small, it’s still relatively tall which helps it reach my clit and deliver good stimulation. It’s not as firm of pressure as you’d get from a thicker-headed wand (like the Magic Wand Plus), but still good for a wand of this size.

Small vs Large Head in Axis Mount Overlay
A small head (pink) doesn’t provide as much pressure as a larger head (white) in the Axis Mount.

The Wanda holds the Le Wand Petite Plug-In upright while you sit on or kneel above the mount for hands-free stimulation. Because of the Le Wand Petite’s short length, the head is positioned just above the mount, which makes sitting directly on the mount excellent for effortless, comfortable stimulation. Wands with larger heads and longer lengths are better if you prefer kneeling, since more surface area provides more even pressure and the head is positioned higher.

During our testing the Large Lelo Smart Wand 2 lasted over 105 minutes running continuously on its highest power – over an hour and a half. And you can play even longer if you often use some of the lower powers.

You can definitely find some that last longer, but I’ve found this is plenty for me!

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In is corded, so you’ll never have to charge your toy, but you’re limited to playing near an outlet. It has an 8-foot long cord and comes with adapters for US, EU, UK, and AUS outlets.

If you prefer rechargeable wands, there is a rechargeable version, the Le Wand Petite. But other rechargeable wands at this price perform better overall, like the Magic Wand Mini and BMS PalmPower Extreme.


Build Quality


Build Quality Rating 7.5 8.0

The Lelo Smart Wand 2 is cased in smooth silicone with a shiny plastic section at the base of the handle. The materials and overall feel of the handle are luxurious and sturdy.

This wand has an odd design for the connection between the head and neck, that feels like the head’s floating on the neck. It feels somewhat loose and makes me a little nervous about the longevity. But so far, it has not caused any issues or broken. I will update if that ever happens.

The Le Wand Petite Plug-In has good build quality. The construction feels well-made, and the silicone head feels durable.

Although the handle looks metallic, it’s actually plastic. The plastic feels a bit thin and cheap, but it helps it remain lightweight and easy to move around. And it seems resistant to breaks.
