Compare Wand Vibrators
The Magic Wand Original is more powerful than other wands in its price range, but it’s not well-rounded. It lacks gentle settings, is fairly buzzy, and is loud. And it underperforms compared to Magic Wand’s other models. Additionally, its head is not body-safe, so you’ll want to purchase a silicone cap with it, making it the same price as the Magic Wand Plus.

Lovense Domi 2 Wand | 8.4 | 8.7 | 8.9 | 9.4 | 5.4 | 8.4 | 9.8 | 9.1 | 5.0 | 7.0 | 9.5 | 36 | Extremely Rumbly | IPX6 | The most powerful small wand we’ve tested, matching the strength of many full-sized wands. It’s lightweight and compact so it’s easy to maneuver. And the Lovense app is the best of any app-controlled brand we’ve tried. |

Doxy Die Cast | 8.3 | 10.0 | 9.3 | 6.4 | 6.4 | 7.9 | 7.0 | 10.0 | 8.8 | 10.0 | 102 | Moderately Buzzy | No Rating | The most powerful wand vibrator. Its top levels are buzzy, but its lower levels are rumbly. The first two levels are mild to moderate – everything else is extremely powerful. |

Doxy Original | 8.2 | 9.3 | 8.8 | 6.1 | 7.7 | 7.5 | 7.1 | 10.0 | 8.8 | 9.5 | 102 | Moderately Buzzy | No Rating | Similar to the Doxy Die Cast with slightly less power. If you enjoy buzzy vibrations, it can be a good option. If you prefer rumbliness, you’ll probably prefer the Magic Wand Plus or Rechargeable. |

Lelo Smart Wand 2 Large | 8.1 | 7.4 | 8.1 | 9.8 | 8.5 | 7.8 | 7.7 | 8.3 | 9.8 | 9.0 | 7.5 | 34 | Extremely Rumbly | IPX7 | The most rumbly wand I’ve tried – it feels drastically different from other wands. Some will love it – others will prefer moderate rumbliness. I recommend buying through Lovehoney so you can return if it’s too rumbly for you. |

Magic Wand Mini | 8.0 | 7.0 | 6.5 | 7.1 | 7.9 | 9.4 | 9.5 | 10.0 | 7.3 | 7.3 | 9.5 | 68 | Moderately Rumbly | No Rating | Strong, but not overwhelming power, with good rumbliness. Plush head is especially comfortable and the compact size is easy to maneuver. |

The G-spot vibrator is weak and buzzy, but the wand end has good, rumbly vibrations. It’s a good wand near the $50 price range. |

It has fewer settings and more limited power range. The porous head is not body-safe like the Plus’s. The MW Plus is a better option for about the same price. |

Satisfyer Wand-er Woman | 7.1 | 7.5 | 7.6 | 8.5 | 6.6 | 6.7 | 6.3 | 9.3 | 6.0 | 4.5 | 7.0 | 57 | Extremely Rumbly | IPX7 | The most affordable full-sized wand with good performance for the price. Excellent rumbly vibrations, but the firm head and thick handle are less comfortable than other wands. |
| 30 | ||
Doxy Die Cast 3R | 6.9 | 8.2 | 5.0 | 6.3 | 6.0 | 7.9 | 5.6 | 6.8 | 7.9 | 7.5 | 9.0 | 92 | Moderately Buzzy | No Rating | Very powerful and buzzy with no gentler warmup settings.

Its weak buzzy vibrations make other bullets like the Lovense Ambi or We-Vibe Tango X better options for most people. | 37 | |||
Romp Flip | 5.8 | 3.2 | 4.8 | 6.9 | 10.0 | 7.0 | 6.0 | 6.8 | 5.0 | 3.8 | 3.0 | 43 | Extremely Rumbly | IPX7 | Cheap, but generally poor performance including weak vibrations and a poor build quality. The Blush Noje W4 is a better cheap wand vibrator for most people. |

Build Quality
Build Quality Rating:
6.0
What is it:
Our perception of the wand vibrator’s durability and material quality; whether it feels cheap or sturdy and long-lasting. If we noticed any decline in a wand’s performance over our months of testing, it is accounted for in its Build Quality rating.
When does it matter:
When you want a wand vibrator to last for years. Many wand vibrator manufacturers provide a warranty (usually 1 to 2 years), but a higher quality wand vibrator is more likely to endure after your warranty is expired.
Scoring Factors:
Subjectively Scored
Show All Scores (Click to See):
Unfortunately, the Magic Wand Original has a porous vinyl head. Porous materials can harbor bacteria and cannot be fully sanitized. To make this wand body-safe, you can purchase a $20 silicone cap to cover the wand’s head. You can remove this cap and wash it between uses.
When you factor in the cost of the cap, it’s cheaper to just purchase the fully body-safe Magic Wand Plus.
Other than this, the Magic Wand Original is high-quality. The hard plastic handle and toggle button feel solid and built to last. And the head has a nice plush feel, which adds to the comfort – though the body-safe silicone of the Magic Wand Plus and Rechargeable are also soft and comfy.

Power Range Rating:
5.7
What is it:
How wide the range is between the highest and lowest power levels, and whether it has enough power levels that steps between levels aren’t too large.
When does it matter:
A broad power range is usually important because it enables more versatile stimulation. You can start on softer levels when your body isn’t ready for crazy strong power. But when you want more strength, you can turn it up high.

Power vs Frequency Graph:
What is it:
A graph of each wand vibrator’s power vs frequency across all of its power levels.
When does it matter:
If you want a detailed look at the full power and frequency characteristics of any particular wand vibrator. This will tell you how strong and how rumbly each setting of the wand feels.
How Strong Is Each Power?
- Power ≤ 3: Comparable to the vibration strength of smaller vibrators like bullets.
- Power between 3 and 4.5: Comparable to …
(Expand Descriptions)
- Power ≤ 3: Comparable to the vibration strength of smaller vibrators like bullets.
- Power between 3 and 4.5: Comparable to the vibration strength of mid-sized, non-wand vibrators like the Lelo Mona 2, Lovense Hyphy, Lovense Lush 3, We-Vibe Nova 2, etc.
- Power between 4.5 and 7: Slightly to moderately more powerful than mid-sized, non-wand vibrators like those mentioned above.
- Power ≥ 7: Substantially stronger than other kinds of vibrators. These levels feel extremely powerful.
The Vibration Power scale is defined with a 10.0 given to the most powerful wand vibrator’s highest strength (Currently the Doxy Die Cast). So a vibration power of 8.0 feels 80% as strong as the Doxy Die Cast. A 5.0 feels 50% as strong, and so on.
The Magic Wand Original is an extremely strong wand with only two power levels.
Even its lowest strength is much more powerful than any of my non-wand vibrators. It’s so strong, I typically only use the lowest setting. And even then, I prefer to use the Magic Wand Original over my clothes or underwear because of the intensity.
Its lowest strength pushes the boundaries of what I can handle when I’m not adequately warmed up – still enjoyably powerful, but any more strength would become overwhelming for me. I think many people will need softer levels to warm up.
While I enjoy the Magic Wand Original’s powerful vibrations, the body-safe Magic Wand Plus has some significant advantages over the Original.
The Plus has four power levels instead of the Original’s two settings – and these four levels cover a broader power range. They start softer than the Magic Wand Original which can prevent overstimulation early on. And it finishes even stronger than the Magic Wand Original.
At a comparable price, most people will enjoy the vibrations of the Magic Wand Plus more.

Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
Rumbliness Rating:
7.0
What is it:
How “rumbly” (low frequency) or “buzzy” (high frequency) a wand vibrator feels at each of its power levels. And whether a wand can deliver strong vibrations while remaining reasonably rumbly. Higher scores indicate a “more rumbly” (lower-frequency) wand, since the majority of people prefer rumbliness. But ultimately vibration frequency is a personal preference.
When does it matter:
If you prefer vibrations in a specific area along the rumbly-to-buzzy spectrum.

A graph of each wand vibrator’s power vs frequency across all of its power levels.
When does it matter:
If you want a detailed look at the full power and frequency characteristics of any particular wand vibrator. This will tell you how strong and how rumbly each setting of the wand feels.
Frequency on Low Power:
75 Hz
(Neutral)
Median Frequency:
84 Hz
(Neutral)
What is it:
What part of the frequency spectrum a wand vibrator’s power levels are centered around. It’s the vibration frequency of the wand’s middle power level (the average of the two middle levels if there is an even number of settings).
When does it matter:
If you prefer vibrations in a particular part of the frequency spectrum. This is a fast way to see whether one wand’s vibration levels are generally more rumbly or buzzy than another wand’s vibration settings. Since most people prefer rumbly toys, a higher performance score implies a lower-frequency (more rumbly) wand.

Ave Power Per Frequency:

What is it:
A measure that rewards wand vibrators that remain rumbly (low-frequency) while packing good vibration strength. Calculated for a wand using the normalized power / normalized frequency at each power level and taking the median.
When does it matter:
If you want a wand with a good balance of power and rumbliness.
