The VeDO Wanda has three power levels which cover a decent range from low to moderate power.

The top power is a smidge stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators (bullets, G-spot vibrators, rabbit vibrators). I can easily orgasm with the Wanda pressed to my clit. So if you enjoy the more moderate vibration strength of other types of vibrators, but prefer the way broad wands spread the vibrations out – the Wanda will likely do the trick for you. 

But there are cheaper wand vibrators with a similar power range like the Maia Zoe Dual-Ended Wand. And other comparably priced wands like the Magic Wand Mini and Dame Com have a similar power range with better performance in other areas.

And if you’re looking for exceptional power, the Magic Wand Plus will be a better fit in the same price range.

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.

Because most people prefer low-frequency, rumbly vibrations, I rate more rumbly wand vibrators higher than buzzy wands in this performance metric. However, vibration frequency is a personal preference. And some people enjoy vibrations more toward the middle or the buzzy (high-frequency) side of the spectrum. 

So consider what you enjoy!

The VeDO Wanda’s vibrations range from extremely rumbly on low power, to neutral on high power. But because the first power level is fairly soft, you’ll likely use the top two power levels most often.

As a result, you can expect the VeDO Wanda to feel moderately rumbly to neutral most of the time. So it’s best if you enjoy vibrations more toward the middle of the spectrum. If you’re not sure what you enjoy it can also be good since it’s not too far to one side.

Or consider something like the Magic Wand Plus which spans a broad range from extremely rumbly to moderately buzzy with ample power at each level.

If you’re in the majority and prefer mostly rumbly vibrations, you may want to invest the extra $10-$20 for the Lovense Domi. With a compact size like the Wanda, it has a much greater power range, and 90% of its power levels are extremely rumbly.

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.

The VeDO Wanda is fairly easy to use. The handle has a comfortably smooth, but grippy silicone which means it doesn’t slip around. The wand is fairly compact, so it’s easier to maneuver and adjust the Wanda’s position than it is with full-sized wands.

Plus it’s waterproof, which makes it very easy to clean. And you can take it into the tub with you.

But the VeDO Wanda has its downsides. 

While a firm head is not always uncomfortable, I do think the VeDO Wanda would benefit from some squishiness. The Wanda’s pressure against my body gets a little uncomfortable over time.

And I don’t enjoy the tapered shape of the VeDO Wanda’s head. Though in theory, it could help you get more pinpoint precision, I found the taper made it difficult to press the vibes into my body. I prefer the more cylindrical shape and slightly squishy texture of wands like the Magic Wand Mini and Magic Wand Plus.

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.

The Wanda works okay but not great during sex. 

Its best performance is in the cowgirl position because the tapered head can slide into the right spots without getting in the way. And the smaller handle is easy to move around.

My main complaint that prevents it from scoring higher in all positions is that the head is a little too hard. Which can be fine for some wands. But the Wanda’s neck also has only a slight flex to it. So the combination of a stiff neck and hard head make it bump uncomfortably against my body with a lot of movement during sex.

While the tapered head helps the Wanda in Cowgirl, it actually hurts the score in Missionary. In order to get good clitoral contact from the tapered head, you have to angle the handle upward. And in Missionary, there is not enough room to do this.

If your main goal is to find a good wand to use during sex, here are a few better recommendations:

• Lovense Domi 2 – A medium-sized handle with a smaller head that can get into tight places and apply firm pressure. 
• BMS PalmPower Extreme – A larger wand that still works incredibly well during sex due to the way its head is angled from the handle.
• Blush Noje W4 – A cheaper option that’s a little smaller than the Wanda with comparable strength. It has some downsides compared to the other two wands above, but it’s inexpensive and easy to use during sex!

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.

The Wanda has an excellent, discreet sound level – good news if you live with others or noise distracts you.

Both its low and high powers are quiet. And during our testing, my partner could not hear any of the Wanda’s power levels from behind a closed bedroom door. 

Part of the reason the VeDO Wanda is quiet is that it’s more moderately powered than some wands. Though it still packs a reasonable punch.

If you want more power while remaining discreet, the Viben Sultry has 1.5 times the power of the VeDO Wanda – and my partner could not hear it behind a closed door either.

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 VeDO Wanda is compatible with a few wand attachments including the Vixen Wanderer, Vixen Gee Whiz, and LuzArte Bubbles. Le Wand attachments also fit the VeDO Wanda – though there is excess room at the top because of the Wanda’s tapered head shape.

The attachments that fit best are all insertable (for G-spot, anal, or prostate stimulation). So only a limited range is available to you.

If you want a wand vibrator compatible with a broad range of attachments, full-sized wands are best. Several score a 10 for attachment compatibility including the comparably-priced Magic Wand Plus!

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.

Wand mounts hold your vibrator and free your hands – alone or during sex (my favorite way to use them). 

We test our wands’ compatibility with Liberator wand mounts – the Axis and Wanda (yes, the mount has the same name as this wand vibrator). So I’ll go ahead and use their full names when referring to them.

The VeDO Wanda gets a 9 for mount compatibility. Not perfect, but certainly above average. 

When using the Liberator Axis, you lie face down along the mount. The Axis holds the VeDO Wanda between your legs, and the head’s side broadly stimulates your clit. This works especially well for effortless stimulation during sex from behind. 

In this position, the VeDO Wanda provides plenty of vibes. Though I especially love using curved wands with the Axis because they provide even better clitoral contact and pressure. The BMS PalmPower Extreme is one of my favorites.

The Liberator Wanda mount holds your wand more upright. Since the VeDO Wanda is shorter than full-sized wands, its head sits only slightly above the mount which is easier to grind on! You can sit on the larger end of the mount and lean or grind against the vibrating head.

Or you can flip the mount around and bend over to provide room for penetration. In this case, the VeDO Wanda’s shorter size makes it a touch more difficult to use – you’ve got to keep your body low enough to be in contact with the wand, but high enough to create space for penetration.Whereas taller wands like the Viben Sultry don’t require you to get so low.

But the VeDO Wanda is doable if you’re up for some flexibility.
If good mount compatibility is a nice bonus to you, the VeDO Wanda will work well. If it’s a huge priority, my favorite wand to use with Liberator’s mounts is the BMS PalmPower Extreme.

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 VeDO Wanda lasts for about 185 minutes on high power the whole time! So about 3 hours, and longer if you use the lower power levels too.

It’s one of the longest lasting wand vibrators we tested. Most people will find its battery-life is more than enough. But if you want an extra hour in there, try out the Magic Wand Rechargeable. 

Or if you want a wand that never needs to charge, try a plug-in option like the Doxy Die Cast or Magic Wand Plus! You just need to play near an outlet.

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 VeDO Wanda is almost entirely covered in smooth silicone, which feels very high-quality. Overall it’s well-made and seems very sturdy, even when applying firm pressure.

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.
