The Mystic Wand has moderate power typical for a wand this size. Though it doesn’t provide the extreme power of a full-sized wand, it’s stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators. 

I actually enjoy the Mystic wand’s three power levels. It starts out soft which is great while you’re warming up – then it ends with a solid amount of strength that’s not overwhelming.

Though I enjoy the Mystic Wand’s vibrations, several higher-quality wands are just as good while performing better in other aspects too.

At the same price, you could get the Magic Wand Mini – a quality wand, and one of my favorites. It has a similar power range with more rumbliness too.

The Doxy Die Cast R has an exceptional top vibration strength, but a poor power range.

It’s tied with the BMS Palmpower Extreme and Magic Wand Waterproof as my most powerful rechargeable wand, and its intensity is second only to the corded Doxy Die Cast. But all the vibrations feel strong or extreme – there are no gentle or moderate starting powers to use as a warmup. If you’re sensitive to overstimulation, you’ll probably need to use another vibrator first or consider a wand with a broader power range, like the PalmPower Extreme and even the corded Doxy Die Cast.

As someone who prefers moderate stimulation, I find the Doxy Die Cast R’s first setting decently comfortable without a prior warmup – but only if I press it very firmly against my body. Doing so slows down the motor and makes it feel less intense. And when I use the Doxy Die Cast R, I never make it past the first setting because I don’t need any more strength.

But it’s excellent for anyone who exclusively needs enormous power. The very first setting with a 7.33 out of 10 strength will meet you at the intensity you want, without having to tap through lower power levels first. And its top strength of 9 out of 10 will be more than enough for the average user. Only the corded Doxy Die Cast is stronger, but it’s hardly a noticeable amount.

We rate rumbly wands higher than buzzy wands because that’s what most people prefer. But choose based on your preferences.

The Vibratex Mystic wand’s lowest vibration power is the only setting that feels rumbly. But since the Mystic wand is only moderately powerful, you’ll likely spend most of your time on the two highest settings. And these feel neutral to moderately buzzy. 

At this moderate strength, I don’t mind somewhat buzzy vibrators personally. It’s not extreme by any means. But most people will want something more rumbly.

If that’s you, the Magic Wand Mini is more rumbly at a similar price. Or for around $20 more, the Dame Com’s entire power range is extremely rumbly from beginning to end.

We rate rumbly wands higher than buzzy wands since most people prefer this. However, it’s up to your personal preference.

The Doxy Die Cast R is a buzzy wand vibrator, so it’s best if you enjoy vibrations that target more at the surface. None of the settings feel rumbly. The gentlest setting has a neutral feel, and everything stronger is moderately to extremely buzzy.

While the corded Doxy Die Cast is comparably buzzy on its upper settings, its lowest two settings are rumbly. So it provides a more versatile experience than the rechargeable. If you want some rumbly settings too, I’d consider the corded Die Cast or the BMS PalmPower Extreme.

One unique aspect I’ve found is that the Doxy Die Cast R’s motor slows down quite a bit if I press the head firmly against my body. By slowing the vibrations down, they approach a more rumbly feeling. I personally enjoy how I can alter the intensity and rumbliness by varying the pressure I apply. If you don’t necessarily need rumbly settings but still enjoy them, you may like experimenting with the Die Cast R’s pressure to find something that feels great to you.

Others will prefer something steadier regardless of the pressure applied. While the corded Doxy Die Cast’s motor is also slightly affected by how hard you press, it’s a much less noticeable effect than with the rechargeable version.

I find the Vibratex Mystic Wand easy to maneuver due to its smaller size and light weight. I can leverage it well for nice pressure. And it’s splashproof, so I can run it under a tap without worry while cleaning it.

While the Mystic’s head is somewhat firm, its flexible neck keeps it comfortable. It’s still a step down from wands with plush heads like the Magic Wand Mini. And I wish the head was smooth rather than ribbed. I find the ribs feel somewhat awkward, though not uncomfortable. 

The controls are worse than some other wands in this price range. There’s only one button to cycle through the Mystic Wand’s 3 power levels and 3 vibration patterns. So if you want to step back down in power, you need to cycle through all the patterns to get back to a lower intensity. Or turn the wand off and back on again. 

I prefer wands like the Magic Wand Mini, which provide separate buttons to increase and decrease power. 

The Doxy Die Cast R is comfortable and easy to use for a heavy, full-sized wand.

This wand’s substantial weight both positively and negatively affects the wand’s comfort. Anytime you use it with the wand’s head pointed down (like on your back), the heavy weight adds excellent natural downward pressure. So you don’t have to leverage the wand with your arm or wrist much. But this also makes it slower to maneuver and can be tiring when you’re holding the wand up – which happens more frequently during sex than solo use.

The large, round head provides a really broad, comfortable surface area in contact with your body. Though it’s trickier to limit contact to a precise area than with a smaller head. The head’s silicone is slightly plush, which feels comfy and luxurious. And the neck has a bit of flexibility, which keeps it comfortable when applying firm pressure.

The handle is a comfortable size to wrap my hand around, and its cast aluminum construction does an excellent job of preventing much vibration in the handle itself – keeping them focused at the head. I typically hold the wand close to the head because the weight distribution is best there. With that grip, my fingers aren’t near the buttons, so I don’t accidentally press them. Though I need to adjust my grip to change the setting, but I don’t find it distracting.

The controls are simple to use and get you to your preferred setting quickly, with separate buttons to increase or decrease the power. You can turn on the pulsing setting by pressing and holding the power button. The two “+” and “-” buttons also allow you to adjust the speed (not intensity) of the pulses.

The Mystic Wand’s short length and fairly slim head make it easy to maneuver during sex. And it can fit into tight spaces and between bodies more easily than my large wands.

The cylindrical shape of the head works well during sex too. The part where the broad side of the head transitions to the flatter top forms a little lip. I can use this lip for more focused stimulation or use the side of the head for broader stimulation.

The shorter handle doesn’t intrude on our bodies when I angle the wand to apply more pressure. But the neck is pretty flexible which means I have to leverage the wand more intensely than a rigid toy to get that pressure.

The only position I dislike the Mystic Wand in is the Cowgirl position (and similar variations). The head is very firm – no squishiness at all. Since I tend to move more in Cowgirl and our bodies are in a more closed position, the firm head bumps uncomfortably into my pubic bone.

Although the Vibratex Mystic is fairly good in most sex positions, it still doesn’t outperform comparably priced wands. I prefer the Magic Wand Mini in all positions during sex because of its squishier head. And the neck is a bit more sturdy, so I can apply firmer pressure.

The Doxy Die Cast R is good to use during sex.

It’s best in positions where you’re not facing your partner because there’s plenty of space in front of you to maneuver the handle without it bumping into your partner. So you can easily position the Die Cast R wherever you need it.

The broad head keeps the wand in consistent contact with your clit and distributes the pressure evenly so the vibrations travel well. In Spooning and Doggystyle positions, the handle is long enough to rest against the bed to help prop the wand at a good angle. So your arm doesn’t get tired despite the substantial weight.

When you’re facing your partner, you have to get a little more creative with your body’s positioning – possibly leaning back to open up more area for the large head to fit closer to your clit. Thankfully, the vibrations are powerful enough that they are impactful, even if the head is nearby instead directly in contact with your clit. Because the head is so large, it can get pressed into your body with a lot of heavy movement, which can be a bit uncomfortable at times but is not a major issue.

But if face-to-face positions are a priority, a wand with a smaller or angled head, like the BMS PalmPower Extreme, is better.

The Vibratex Mystic Wand’s vibrations are very discreet. Its decibel measurements are low. And my partner cannot hear it on any level from the other side of the closed bedroom door – even when I crank it up to high. So you can certainly use this wand discreetly if you live with others.

But, this is also true of the Magic Wand Mini and other better, comparably-priced wands.

The Doxy Die Cast R is quite loud.

When we tested whether my partner could hear it from behind our closed bedroom door, he heard every setting. Even after I turned on a box fan in the bedroom my partner still heard the Doxy Die Cast R’s top setting – although he noted that then he could only hear it when I moved the wand around, and he said he’d definitely have to actively listen for the sound to notice it.

Playing music in the bedroom successfully prevented him from hearing the wand on any setting.
If you have housemates and/or discretion is important, the Magic Wand Plus is a comparably powerful wand that was inaudible at least on the lowest power setting. And both a fan and music mask the noise.

The Mystic Wand is compatible with wand attachments designed for the Le Wand Petite and for the Lovense Domi 2. These cover a broad range of stimulation including G-spot, anal, prostate, penis, clitoral, and dual-stimulation.

So while there aren’t quite as many attachments available as there are with full-sized wand vibrators – you have plenty of options.

The Doxy Die Cast R has fantastic compatibility with wand attachments.

Most attachments are made for full-sized heads like this one. In my collection, I found many that fit, providing a wide variety of stimulation types. You should have no trouble finding plenty of options.
To see all the attachments I’ve tested with this wand and others, see our wand attachment compatibility table here.

I use each of my wands with the Liberator Wanda and Axis mounts and rate the hands-free clit stimulation I get.

The Mystic Wand fits well with the Wanda mount. This mount holds the Mystic wand at the perfect height to maintain consistent contact with my clit. I can comfortably lower my weight onto the wand as I straddle the Wanda mount. And I can lean forward easily to create room for my partner behind me while keeping the Mystic on my clit. 

In the Axis mount, the Mystic works decently, but I prefer other wands. The Vibratex Mystic’s head is fairly slim, and there’s no upward curve in the handle. So, it doesn’t hit my clit as well in the Axis. It lightly touches my clit, but I don’t get firm pressure. And I need to position my body more intentionally to keep the head in contact with my body.

My favorites for mount use are the Dame Com and BMS PalmPower Extreme. Each has a curved handle or an angled head, which applies better pressure on my clit when held in the Axis mount.

We test our wands for hands-free stimulation using the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts.

The Doxy Die Cast R works wonderfully with both mounts.

In the Liberator Axis, the large, round head provides plenty of surface area to press against comfortably. At 2.5 inches, its head is wider than most, which helps it reach your clit more easily than most straight wands. The strong vibrations travel well to provide great stimulation hands-free. The handle stays securely wedged in the mount.

In the Liberator Wanda, you can kneel above the mount for hands-free stimulation solo or with penetration from behind. The head sticks up quite a bit past the fabric, so you can’t sit directly on the mount as you can with some short wand vibrators. But it provides excellent stimulation when kneeling over it. The broad, tall head is great at distributing pressure evenly so you can comfortably lean against it.

The Mystic Wand’s battery lasted the longest of any wand vibrator we’ve tested. It lasted nearly 14 hours continuously vibrating on high power.

But this long battery life comes at a major cost – literally. This wand is not rechargeable – you will need to keep buying AA batteries (it takes four). 

This is a deal-breaker for me – it makes the true cost of this wand even more expensive than other options in this price range. You’re better off buying a higher-quality rechargeable or plug-in wand massager.

The Doxy Die Cast R is rechargeable and has a decent battery life, lasting for 75 minutes on its highest power in our test. Considering this wand’s enormous strength, that’s a reasonable battery life.

There is an automatic shutoff after 20 minutes of continuous use, but you can turn it back on immediately. You cannot use the Doxy Die Cast R while it’s charging (very few wands allow that – the Magic Wand Rechargeable is one that does).

Though I enjoy its vibrations, the Mystic Wand’s poor build quality makes it difficult to recommend. The plastic handle feels cheaper than other wands. And its ribbed silicone head feels poorer quality than others – some of the ribbed edges seem to peel or get damaged easily. And the silicone is loose around the neck which feels cheap.

Most importantly, quality wand vibrators are rechargeable or wall-powered. But the Mystic wand still uses 4 AA batteries. Replacing batteries becomes expensive quickly. 

The Doxy Die Cast R has great build quality.

The cast aluminum handle feels very sturdy, and the slightly flexible neck feels strong, so I’m not afraid to apply pressure. The silicone head is slightly plush, which feels comfortable and high-quality. It feels well-made and luxurious.

The motor does have a slight waver at times, where it will dip or raise by 1 or 2 Hz. I can hear the waver (listen below), but it doesn’t impact my experience – I can’t feel this slight difference.

I want to note that when we purchased the Doxy Die Cast R, the first one we received arrived with a defect. It would shut off randomly despite having a full charge, and the power would dip substantially. These issues were noticeable immediately upon using the toy (not something that developed over time). We believe something likely happened during shipping.

We contacted Doxy support right away, and they replaced it quickly. We had to send a video showing and explaining our issue and then cut the charging cable. They sent a new product within 3 business days of our initial email. And our new product has worked great.

Our rating for build quality is based on the undamaged wand we received. Doxy also has a 2-year warranty when you register your wand for free on their site.
