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 Lovehoney Mini Wand is one of my weakest wand vibrators. Its strength is more like a bullet vibrator than a typical wand, and it’s weaker than most of my bullets.

One aspect I enjoy is that it has 9 power levels in total. So I can start off very soft, and make small, incremental changes. It’s a nice warm-up toy. And even though its top level is much softer than other wands, I can still orgasm with it. 

But wands are known for their sheer power – so if that’s what you’re expecting from this wand, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

The cheaper Blush Noje W4 has more than 2x the vibration strength. And the comparably-priced Orion Your New Favorite Wand has over 3.75x the power!

And if you want the extreme power wands are famous for, you’ll need to increase your budget a bit. The Magic Wand Plus is the least expensive wand (under $100) with these ultra-powerful vibration levels.

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 wands with rumbly vibrations higher than wands with buzzy vibrations because most people prefer these low-frequency vibrations. But if your preferences lean more towards the buzzy side, the Lovehoney Deluxe Rechargeable Mini might actually be a good fit for you.

Since it’s a low-powered wand vibrator, you’ll likely spend most of your time using the middle and high power levels. And these are neutral to buzzy-feeling. 

I actually enjoy this wands buzziness from time to time. While I find powerful, buzzy vibrations overwhelming – I enjoy softer buzzy vibes like the Lovehoney Deluxe Mini’s occasionally.

But overall, most people prefer something stronger and more rumbly. The Blush Noje W4 and Magic Wand Mini are a better fit for most people since they’re a bit more rumbly.

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.

Because of the Lovehoney Mini’s small size and light weight, it’s very comfortable and easy to use. Maneuvering this wand and positioning its head exactly where you want the vibrations is simple.

I also like that the buttons let me adjust the strength easily. Rather than having one button to cycle through power levels, it has separate buttons to increase and decrease vibration strength. 

I do have some complaints though. I wish the head was completely smooth rather than textured/ribbed. These ribs create little edges that occasionally poke or pinch me uncomfortably. It’s rare, but I need to be more conscious of positioning this head than smooth wands like the Blush Noje W4 or Magic Wand Mini.

Smoother Textured Heads Compared to Lovehoney Mini

I also find how close together the buttons are mildly annoying. I occasionally press the button to switch patterns when I mean to increase the power. Then I have to cycle back through the patterns to return to a constant vibration.

The Magic Wand Mini’s buttons are farther apart and easier to feel. So I don’t find myself accidentally hitting the wrong button.


Use During Sex


Use During Sex Rating 7.7 7.5
Lelo Smart Wand 2 - Large Fit in Tight Space
Lovehoney Deluxe Rechargeable Mini Massage Wand Fit in Tight Space
Spooning 7.5 8.5
Doggystyle 8.3 6.5
Modified Missionary 8.5 6.5
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 small size and light weight of this wand make it easy to maneuver into tight spaces during sex. But I never reach for this wand because its vibrations are too weak. 

The vibes are hardly noticeable when they’re competing with the additional stimulation I’m getting during penetration. I think most people will want something with more oomph.

The Lovehoney Mini also has a really flexible neck, so I can’t press the vibes firmly into me as I enjoy during sex.

If using your wand with a partner is important to you, the Blush Noje W4 or VeDO Wini are better choices in this price range. It’s also small and easily maneuverable – but its vibrations are stronger and its neck is less flimsy.


Noise

Low Power Inaudible Inaudible

High Power Audible Audible
High Power with Box Fan Inaudible Inaudible
High Power with Music Inaudible Inaudible

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.

Note: The sound levels recorded in the video and measurements above were taken before the rattling sound developed which we discuss under Build Quality. For a listen into the wand’s sound now, see the video here.

The Lovehoney Deluxe Rechargeable Mini wand is definitely quiet. But it’s quiet because the vibrations are weak.

There are many wands with much greater power that remain discreet. For instance, the Viben Sultry has more than 4 times the Lovehoney Mini’s power. And it’s still inaudible on the other side of a closed door at every power level.

Number of Attachments Rating 9.6 0.8
Stimulation Variety 10.0 2.5

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.

Because the Lovehoney Mini is so small, it has very little compatibility with wand attachments.

Lovehoney designed a G-spot attachment (the Queen G) specifically for this wand. But none of my other wand attachments fit the Lovehoney Mini’s small head.

Compatibility with Wanda 8.0 0.0

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.

I test my wands the Liberator Axis and Wanda – wand mounts for hands-free play. Unfortunately, the Lovehoney Deluxe Mini is too small for both of them.

It completely falls into the Liberator Wanda mount. And though its head sticks out past the Axis’ opening, its not far enough to provide any useful clit stimulation.

If hands-free play with mounts is important to you, go with something larger. The Dame Com is one of my favorites to use with wand mounts. Its a great size and the curved shape keeps its head in excellent contact with my clit. Or for something slightly more budget-friendly, the FemmeFunn Ultra Wand works fairly well with mounts too.

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 Lovehoney Deluxe Rechargeable Mini has below average battery life compared to other wand vibrators. 

It lasts for around 95 minutes continuously vibrating on high power. This is enough for most people, but you can find more powerful wands that last longer. For example, the Magic Wand Mini lasts 3.5 hours on high power. And it’s nearly 3x stronger than the Lovehoney Deluxe Mini!


Build Quality


Build Quality Rating 7.5 4.0

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 Lovehoney Deluxe Rechargeable Mini’s plastic is very lightweight to the point of feeling cheap. Although the neck is extremely flexible, it still feels reasonably strong. But the weak, buzzy motor feels poor quality and has developed a bit of a rattling sound the more we’ve used it. The vibration power occasionally wavers, especially on the low settings.
