In the next sections, I’ll cover the Lucy’s vibration power and rumbliness in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion: The Lucy is one of the most stimulating panty vibrators I’ve tested, especially for its price – strong, with a form-fitting design that delivers that strength to your clit well. The trade-off is rumbliness – the Lucy is buzzy at every setting, and extremely buzzy at the top, but I still enjoy its vibration feel personally.

If strong, rumbly vibrations matter more, go with the VeDO Niki (remote-only, no app), but otherwise the Lucy’s clit stimulation is great.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the Moxie+’s vibration power and rumbliness in-depth.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Moxie+’s clit stimulation is middle-of-the-road. It’s moderately strong, but the straight design transfers that power inconsistently to my clit. And it’s not that rumbly either like people often expect from We-Vibe.

If you value clit stimulation most, the Lovense Ferri is strongest, or go with the VeDO Niki if you care more about rumbliness. Both are stronger than the Moxie+ and transfer their vibrations better to my clit.

The Techno Lucy is one of the strongest panty vibrators I’ve tested, with a top power of 9 out of 10. Among magnetic panty vibrators, only the Lovense Ferri reaches a higher top strength.

The power range is wide, but there’s only three power levels: a soft 1 out of 10 at the low end (a good warmup setting), a jump straight to 7 in the middle, and a powerful 9 at the top. While there’s not a ton of intermediate settings, I personally find the three settings it provides enough to comfortably warmup and finish strongly.

The Lucy also transfers that power to your clit really well. Its curved, broad design contours to your vulva, and a strong, wide magnet keeps the toy from pivoting out of place. Among magnetic panty vibrators, only the Lovense Ferri delivers more of its motor’s strength to your clit. While a lot of panty vibrators feel weaker than their strength would suggest, the Lucy’s 9 out of 10 power actually feels strong on your clit.

The Lucy’s curve also gives you some ability to press the vibrations more firmly into your clit hands-free. When you’re sitting, shifting your weight onto the end opposite your clit tilts the front end more firmly into you – closer to handheld pressure control than a straight panty vibrator gets, though still certainly not the level of pressure you get from a handheld vibrator.

The Moxie+’s clit motor delivers decent power, but its straight, firm body doesn’t transfer that power to your clit as reliably as the best panty vibrators.

At 6.75 out of 10, the top setting is about 72% of the Lovense Ferri‘s 9.35 and a step behind the VeDO Niki‘s 8.0. I can’t orgasm hands-free with the Moxie+ like I can with those other two panty vibes.

The range is wide with small, comfortable steps between levels. When controlled with the remote, the Moxie+ steps through 13 levels from a very gentle 0.70 up to its 6.75 top setting – so there’s plenty of warmup levels and moderate settings, just nothing very strong at the top.

The vibration transfer to my clit is inconsistent. With a handheld you can press harder for more intensity; with a wearable, the toy’s shape has naturally deliver the vibrations to your clit, and shapes that contour to your body do that better.

The Moxie+ is firm, long, and straight, so it doesn’t stay snug against the body. When I get it situated just right, transfer is fine, but keeping it there is difficult. The straight body slips out of position with normal movement, the same way the Romp Party does, and once it shifts, the intensity I actually feel drops off.

If you want stronger clit stimulation, both the Ferri(app-controlled) and Niki(remote-controlled) are better choices.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer – rumbly vibrations travel deeper and feel more diffuse, while buzzy ones stay nearer the surface with a sharper kick. But this is a personal preference, and many people do enjoy buzzy vibes.

The Lucy is buzzy. Its lowest setting measures 92.5 Hz, which is moderately buzzy, and the top climbs to 142.5 Hz, well into the extremely buzzy range. There’s no level where the Lucy feels rumbly or even neutral – its vibrations stay in the moderately-to-extremely buzzy range across all three settings.

This is fairly typical for panty vibrators – the small motors that fit inside a wearable often have a hard time generating the low-frequency vibrations that feel rumbly while also spinning fast enough to feel strong. I personally enjoy the Lucy’s strong, buzzy vibrations, because they stay pressed to my body and transfer well to my clit.

But if you want a strong, rumbly panty vibrator, the VeDO Niki is a great option for about $20 more. It’s a rare panty vibrator that delivers deep, low-frequency vibrations throughout its whole power range.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy because most people prefer them – but it’s a personal preference, and some people prefer buzzy – I personally like both.

The Moxie+’s rumbliness is subpar. It’s extremely rumbly on its lowest settings (starting around 49 Hz), but moderately buzzy at median power (102 Hz), and extremely buzzy at the top (122 Hz). Since the lowest settings are gentle and mostly warmup levels – most of the frequency range you’ll use will feel buzzy.

That’s essentially the same profile as most other panty vibrator I’ve tested except the VeDO Niki.

The Lovense Ferri, Romp Party, and NS Novelties Techno Lucy all run moderately buzzy at median power and cross into extremely buzzy on high. However, because some options, like the Ferri, have more power at similar frequencies to the Moxie+, the stronger ones actually feel more rumbly than the Moxie+.

For a wearable clit vibrator, frequency matters less than the power and how reliably the toy delivers that power to your clit – frequency is secondary. But the Moxie+ is only decent on all three. If rumbly vibrations are specifically what you’re after in a panty vibe, the VeDO Niki is the most rumbly and it gets the power and clit transfer right too.

Like all panty vibrators, the NS Novelties Techno Lucy only stimulates your clit – not your G-spot. Since most women need clit stimulation to orgasm, a panty vibrator is often the right type of wearable. But if you’re interested in G-spot stimulation instead, see all our recommendations for the best egg vibrators here.

Like all panty vibrators, the We-Vibe Moxie+ only stimulates your clit – not your G-spot. Since most women need clit stimulation to orgasm, a panty vibrator is often the right type of wearable. But if you’re interested in G-spot stimulation instead, see all our recommendations for the best egg vibrators here.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the Love Spouse app’s close-range and long-distance features and its connectivity in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Love Spouse app is very basic and can feel spammy. But it’s functional for both close-range and long-distance play. The Techno Lucy is also more sensitive to body interference blocking the bluetooth signal than pricier panty vibrators. But at this budget point, it’s a good option.

If you want a feature-rich app and the best connectivity available, you’ll need to increase your budget and go with the Lovense Ferri. If basic, working app control is fine, the Lucy’s app does the core job.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the We-Vibe app’s close-range features, long-distance features, and connectivity in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion:

We-Vibe’s app is buggy in close range and unreliable in long-distance. Lovense’s app is by far the better app.

In close-range there are ongoing bugs that affect several products, including the Moxie+. The controls sometimes freeze and require you to close/re-open the app. Long-distance control has a bug that often blocks you from connecting at all.

While the Moxie+ specifically has shown fewer bugs in our testing than other We-Vibe products like the We-Vibe Chorus Pro, Jive 2, and other newer models, the persistent glitches for other products make it hard to trust the Moxie+ either.

If app control is a priority to you in a panty vibrator, go with the Lovense Ferri. Its app is the best of any brand, with outstanding features and connectivity. Plus, the Ferri is the panty vibrator I orgasm with hands-free the easiest.

The Love Spouse app’s close-range features are very basic – it has the most limited close-range app experience I’ve tested in a panty vibrator. The core constant-intensity control works, so if you just need an app to select your vibration power it’s fine – especially at this budget. But more customized controls you’d expect from higher-end apps are either missing or don’t work well. Consider the Lovense Ferri if you care about greater customization.

The one useful screen in the app is Classic Mode, which lists the toy’s preset modes as “Mode 1” through “Mode 9.” Modes 1-3 are the toy’s low, medium, and high constant intensity; the rest are the toy’s preset patterns.

That’s the entire intensity-control system – three stepped levels rather than the continuous adjustment most panty-vibe apps offer. If you want to dial in a precise feel between low and medium, you can’t; you’re stuck with the three steps the toy ships with. The modes also aren’t descriptively labeled, so you (or a partner controlling your toy) can’t tell what a pattern feels like without trying each one first, you have to memorize what each means.

Beyond Classic Mode, the app is cluttered with poorly built features that don’t add value. Draw Something is meant to let you drag your finger on the screen to control vibration intensity – but the response is so inconsistent that after ten minutes I still couldn’t figure out how it was supposed to work. Music Mode plays the toy along to music, but you’re limited to a handful of pre-installed songs the brand made up – no Spotify, no Apple Music, no songs from your phone – and the vibrations don’t really match the music anyway. Game Mode and a Shaking feature (where you shake your phone to control intensity) are similarly unusable in practice. Ads for the brand’s cam services run throughout the app, often taking up more space on the main control screen than the controls themselves. You don’t have to watch ads before playing, but they’re on the screen taking up space.

If you want anything beyond stepping between three preset intensity levels or selecting from the preset patterns the Lovense Ferri has a much better app. If you’re fine with basic controls and just need a functional app on a budget, the Techno Lucy’s app can be fine.

The We-Vibe Moxie+’s close-range features in the app are decent when they work. It has simple control interfaces to adjust intensity and choose from preset patterns without in-depth custom pattern creation. But bugs occasionally cause the controls to break, which requires an app restart. While the bugs are less prominent for the Moxie+ than for We-Vibe’s newer toys, if app control is a priority, the Lovense Ferri is a far better choice.

We-Vibe’s main control happens on two screens: Single Vibe and Multi Vibe. They work similarly – you drag an on-screen dot to adjust the intensity, and the toy keeps vibrating wherever you leave it. Multi Vibe also splits the screen into four corners, each holding a preset pattern you choose, so dragging the dot into a corner switches to that pattern at whatever strength the dot’s position represents.

It’s a clean design for the basics, and a quick way to flip between a constant intensity and a preset without a menu detour. Unfortunately there’s an annoying bug on the Single and Multi Vibe screens where the motor’s dot sometimes freezes or becomes non-interactive at times.

What you can’t do from these screens is create a custom pattern in the moment the way you can in the Lovense or Satisfyer apps. Pattern creation lives on a separate screen and is pretty unusable.

It’s hidden on a separate screen that takes a few taps to find. Once you’re there, you draw a waveform without being able to feel it; you save and name the pattern, navigate back to the control screen, select the pattern, and only then find out what it feels like.

Patterns are also capped at the width of your screen, so what you create comes back short and choppy. My partner and I both tried creating patterns; his played, mine crashed the app on every one of four attempts and I gave up.

The preset patterns are easy to use but basic. There are 10 of them, each with a name and a one-line waveform icon, so you can roughly tell what you’re picking before you select it. The simple ones – Pulse, Wave – match their names and icons well enough, but others are not intuitive.

You adjust the intensity of a preset pattern from the Single Vibe and Multi Vibe with the control dot. There’s also a Playlist feature for stringing presets together into longer, more varied sequences, but you can’t feel what you’re assembling as you build it, so it’s mostly guesswork – I don’t use it.

Multi-toy control (like if you have a Moxie+ and a Jive 2 for G-spot stimulation) is decent when it works. You can connect several toys at once (we got four going simultaneously) and either control each one independently or merge them all into a single dot. But often one or more of the toys just stopped responding to our actions in the app.

Sound and music modes are okay. Sound mode uses your phone’s mic to make the toy respond to ambient noise. Music mode plays the toy in time with songs saved locally on your phone (no Spotify or Apple Music streaming, which is a bummer).

Both work, but the controls aren’t well labeled – figuring out whether you’re adjusting the mic’s sensitivity or the toy’s max power takes some experimenting. And there’s no minimum-volume threshold, so you can’t tell the toy not to vibrate unless the sound around you is above a certain level.

For better close-range features without bugs, consider the Lovense Ferri.

The Love Spouse app’s long-distance features are basic but functional – the core call-and-control flow works, but getting to the call is rough.

Your long-distance partner controls your Lucy with the same Mode 1 through Mode 9 preset selector you have during close-range play, and the same limitations.

Getting into a call is unintuitive at first, especially if you want to control a partner’s toy without also owning a toy of your own. The easiest way to connect with a partner is to select YOUR own toy from the home screen. Once connected to your toy, you’ll see a “Friend Control” option in the menu. Add your partner, and then you can select to invite them to a control session. Then once in a control session, you can also request to start a video call. This way requires that you also own a toy in order to access your friends list through your toy’s menu.

If you don’t own a Love Spouse toy too, you have to navigate to the “World” menu, which takes you to a spammy screen with a ton of random users sending a constant stream of messages. But in the top left of this screen, there’s a message icon where you can access your friends list and start the video call with your partner from there.

Once you’re in, though, the video call itself is pretty good. Video quality is high on decent internet, your view of your partner fills most of the screen without the controls cluttering the feed, and the toy control panel is easy to access – toggling off fullscreen brings the controls up in the bottom half of the screen while keeping your partner in view at the top. You can also both control each other’s vibrations during the call.

The call does have a few notable gaps. You can’t toggle off your camera or mute your mic – only flip front/back camera, switch to speaker, or end the call (a voice-only call option exists as a fallback). And there’s an in-call messaging feature that you should not use: messages fill up the video screen and don’t go away.

The standalone chat experience is bad: messages appear in a tiny corner window, text overflows onto buttons of similar color, lines cut off mid-word, and there’s no message history. There’s no media sharing during an active control session either – you can’t send a photo or voice clip while controlling your partner’s toy.

For people interested in the Anonymous play some higher-end apps like Lovense offer, it exists in the Love Spouse app, but it’s behind a paywall.

If long-distance play is a priority for you, the Lovense Ferri is a better choice – its app gives your partner rich control in long-distance mode, with a clean non-spammy interface that works well. For basic control over your partner’s vibrations during a video call, the Techno Lucy can work fine.

The We-Vibe app’s long-distance features are broken. The features are designed fine in theory, but persistent bugs make long-distance play unreliable enough that I can’t recommend the app for it at all. If you need long-distance play, get the Lovense Ferri instead.

The long-distance experience mirrors close-range. Your partner gets the same Single Vibe, Multi Vibe, and Touch screens to control your Moxie+, and vice-versa. You can even take back control of your own toy mid-session without ending the call – a feature I wish more apps had.

But the same bugs from close-range control affect the long-distance control – the control dot occasionally freezes or becomes unresponsive. Additionally, both partners frequently show up as “offline” to each other even when you’re both in the app, which prevents you from starting a session at all.

Even when long-distance does connect, getting into a video call takes four separate request-and-accepts (call, camera, control of your toy, control of theirs). And the in-app video feed is blurry and choppy in a way Lovense’s isn’t.

The messaging itself is decent as a basic messenger, with text, photos, voice notes, and video clips. We-Vibe also lets you save multiple partners, but doesn’t offer the anonymous one-time control links or the auto-accept settings for trusted partners that Lovense’s app does.

For long-distance play, the Lovense Ferri is cheaper and a far better panty vibrator.

The Lucy’s app connectivity is reliable for solo control, but it’s just decent for nearby or long-distance partnered play. If reliable connectivity through any situation matters a lot to you, the Lovense Ferri is a better option, though it’s pricier.

Getting up and running is mostly automatic. The very first time, you have to enter a four-digit binding code from the toy’s instruction manual – annoying, but you only do it once (so don’t toss the manual before pairing). After that, the app auto-connects whenever you open it and turn the toy on. If the connection drops mid-session (like from going out of range), reconnection is automatic as soon as the signal’s clear again.

When I’m controlling my own toy, commands go through reliably and the connection holds through phone locking, app-switching, and periods of inactivity. The Lucy can also handle light body interference, like controlling the toy yourself or when a partner is facing you or at a slight angle. But as you put more of your body between the phone and the toy, it can lose the connection.

Water-rich materials like body tissue can significantly dampen bluetooth signals – much more than clothes or typical walls. Our body-interference test simulates this at three progressively harder positions: the Lucy holds a stable connection at the first, drops occasional commands at the second (but auto-reconnects on its own), and can’t maintain a connection at the third, most severe angle.

The Lovense Ferri holds at all three positions, which matters if a partner will be controlling your toy with a lot of your body in the way.

The Lucy’s Bluetooth range comes in around 40 feet in our open-air test, measured with a clear line-of-sight. That’s enough for same-room control, but well short of what Lovense’s and other panty vibrators reach – and body interference at certain angles will shorten your real distance further.

For long-distance play, the connection works well when both partners keep the Love Spouse app open. Sessions don’t drop unexpectedly, and commands go through reliably while both apps are active. If the toy-wearer’s app is locked or minimized, it can cause the controls to freeze until the app is back up again. Better long-distance apps like Lovense’s let the controlling partner keep adjusting your vibrations through normal phone behavior.

For solo control, partnered control from angles without much of your body in the way, and basic long-distance play, the Lucy’s connectivity holds up – especially considering how inexpensive the Techno Lucy is.

The We-Vibe app’s connectivity with the Moxie+ is poor in close-range and broken in long-distance.

The Bluetooth hardware itself is fine: range is excellent, and body interference doesn’t faze it. But bugs cause unreliable reconnection, frequent command misses, and trouble with long-distance play. Lovense has the most reliable app connectivity by a wide margin – consider the Lovense Ferri if app control is a priority.

Initial pairing in close-range is straightforward – add the Moxie+ to the app’s toy carousel once, and from then on it’s two taps to connect with no on-toy action needed. For most people, who own one or two We-Vibe toys and use a single phone, this part works fine.

The breakdown happens if you own several We-Vibe toys and switch between them often, or if you regularly switch which phone is controlling the same toy (like if you and your partner both connect occasionally). This causes the quick-connect routine to fail, and recovering often means deleting the toy from the app, forgetting it from your phone’s Bluetooth settings, and walking through the full pairing flow again – an annoying start to your play.

Reconnection during play is inconsistent. If you drop signal and get back in range within 10-20 seconds, the app typically reconnects automatically – but during that window the app doesn’t show that the connection has dropped, so your partner can be “controlling” the toy on screen while nothing is actually happening to your toy. Wait too long to come back in range and you’ll have to tap through the connection screens again, sometimes including holding the on-toy button, which can be awkward when you’re wearing the toy.

Even when the connection holds, the app’s controls break. Command misses are frequent enough that I don’t trust the app to keep up with what I’m asking it to do. Especially on Single and Multi Vibe screens.

The Moxie+ handles body interference cleanly. Our body-interference test simulates partner-control at three progressively harder positions – angles where your body sits between a partner’s phone and the toy which can block the signal. The Moxie+ holds a stable connection at all three. Water-rich body tissue weakens Bluetooth signals more than walls or clothes, and many wearables drop the connection at the third, most severe position; the Moxie+ doesn’t. The signal is strong, and the reliability problems are app-side. Bluetooth range is also excellent – the connection held at 250 feet in our open-air test.

Long-distance is where the app is fully broken. The problem is the two app-level bugs I covered in the Long Distance Features section above: both partners frequently show as “offline” to each other and can’t start a session at all, and when they do connect, control commands often stop reaching the toys. Both bugs happen regularly without a reliable way to fix it.

If reliable app connectivity is what you need – close-range or long-distance – go with the Lovense Ferri. It has outstanding connectivity and it’s the panty vibrator I can most consistently orgasm with hands-free.

The NS Novelties Techno Lucy doesn’t include a physical remote control. A remote lets you adjust the toy by feel – without pulling out your phone. Though there’s other downsides like less depth and no visual feedback to help your partner know what your toy’s doing. If you want to consider options with physical remotes, see our recommendations in these guides:

• best remote and app-controlled vibrators (all types of vibrators)
• best wearable vibrators (wearables only).

In the next sections, I’ll cover the Moxie+’s remote features and connectivity in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Moxie+’s remote is good for solo play or partnered play where your partner has a clear line-of-sight to you (like not sitting at an angle to you or behind you). It has all the controls you need and a long connection range.

The one limitation is body interference: commands often don’t go through when your body sits in the signal path between your partner’s remote and the toy, where most panty-vibe remotes I’ve tested hold steady.

Go with the VeDO Niki for reliable through-body partner control.

The We-Vibe Moxie+’s remote features are great.

One of the best aspects is that the power and pattern controls are separate. There’s dedicated + and − buttons to move forward and backward through 13 power levels, and pressing and holding either button steps through them quickly to reach a higher or lower setting faster.

And there’s forward and backward buttons to move through the 6 vibration patterns. So I never have to cycle past patterns to reach a power level or vice versa – many remotes put them on the same loop.

The remote itself is comfortable to hold. It’s small and silicone-coated sitting naturally in my hand, and the buttons are raised enough that I can feel which is which without looking – this kind of eyes-free operation can be a practical advantage of a remote over an app.

Like most remotes, the Moxie+’s remote just blinks when a button is pressed – there’s no way for the partner holding it to tell what setting your toy is on. It’s not a huge deal, especially if you’re often the one controlling your own toy. But for a controlling partner, it can feel less engaging than an app’s visual feedback.

The Moxie+’s remote works well on many connection aspects – fast responsiveness, instant reconnection, and one of the longer ranges of my panty vibrators’ remotes (125 ft in our test). But it’s significantly affected by body interference.

Body tissue between the remote and the toy is the main thing that breaks a remote’s signal during partner control – your body can sit in the signal path between your partner’s remote and the toy. And water-rich materials like your body can significantly dampen Bluetooth and RF signals.

Our body-interference test simulates this scenario at three progressively challenging angles, and the Moxie+’s remote drops the connection at all three – the worst of any panty vibrator (including the original Moxie). The on-toy button flashes indicating it has lost connection, and you have to move the remote closer to recover.

It’s important to understand our test runs harsher than typical real-world conditions. At many angles, an external toy like a panty vibrator won’t have any body interference blocking the signal. So your partner-controlled play may be less drop-prone in practice. And for solo control when I’m holding the remote myself, commands have gone through reliably. But most panty-vibe remotes and apps I’ve tested hold a reliable connection through body interference.

If you want reliable control without worrying about where your partner is positioned from you, go with the VeDO Niki for a remote controlled toy or the Lovense Ferri for an app-controlled toy.

Like most panty vibrators, the Lucy’s on-toy controls are limited by design – the toy sits inside your underwear during use, so you’ll typically rely on the app.

There’s a single button on the toy that cycles through the same nine settings from the app – three steady power levels, then six vibration patterns. There’s no minus button, so dropping back to a gentler power takes cycling through the remaining settings. Nine settings is enough that the cycle takes some patience, but as a backup or if you want to occasionally use the toy handheld it works fine.

The button is well-placed: easy to feel and press without looking, and centered in the middle of the broad, plush body. Pressing it does push the toy against your vulva, but the central placement and broad surface distribute the pressure evenly across your body rather than concentrating it in one spot, so it’s comfortable.

The limited on-toy button works fine, since the app is the main way you’ll use the Lucy.

Like most panty vibrators, the Moxie+’s on-toy controls are limited by design – the toy sits inside your underwear during use, so you’ll typically rely on the remote.

A single button cycles through four power levels and six patterns, with no minus button. To step back to a gentler power, you click forward through the rest of the loop.

The button is easy to feel, but it’s slim and takes more pressure than most. It also sits at the very top of the toy, so pressing it pushes the toy uncomfortably against my clit. Slipping my thumb under to brace it works, but it’s awkward.

For the full 13-step power range – and any adjustment you’d rather not reach into your underwear to make – the remote does the real work.

The NS Novelties Techno Lucy is the most secure fitting panty vibrator I’ve tested, even compared to other magnetic panty vibrators.

The clit-end is broad, but it tapers narrower toward the base between your legs, the toy curves to be form-fitting along your vulva, and the magnet is strong, large, and recessed into a divot at the back.

The broad clit-end paired with the large magnet pins the part vibrating by your clit firmly to your underwear. It has none of the wiggle room a narrower toy or small magnet sometimes leaves. Even if the toy tilts slightly as you move, the breadth of the clit-end keeps it secure against your body. And the curved, tapered shape means your thighs don’t bump the toy off-axis as you walk – it nestles naturally between your legs.

In bed, the toy doesn’t shift through normal moving around or changing positions.

During light activity like walking or doing chores, you can feel the toy move with you as you walk, but it doesn’t actually shift off the spot you secured it to – and gravity doesn’t pull it down off your clit even when standing.

Heavy activity is where most magnetic panty vibrators shift more, but the Lucy holds up better here than any I’ve tested. It stayed in place and maintained great clit contact while I danced and did high knees. Jumping and running do make it bounce – the toy pulls away from your body when you land – but it moves right back where it’s clipped without any manual readjustment.

The Moxie+’s magnet anchors the toy reliably to your underwear in bed, while walking, and during heavy exercise, but there’s some side-to-side swiveling.

The magnet is strong, but it’s a small disc at the top of a long toy without any body contouring. The magnet pins the clit-end securely and that point stays locked to your underwear. But the long, straight lower end has room to swing slightly side-to-side as I move. The more body-contouring shape of panty vibrators like the VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy reduces that side-to-side movement.

Underwear choice also matters across every activity – form-fitting underwear keeps the Moxie+ snug much better. With a looser pair, the magnet still holds, but the underwear itself can shift and move the toy with it.

In bed, with tight underwear, I could keep the Moxie+ in a good, stimulating position.

Standing, walking, or doing heavier activity like running/jumping is where it moves side-to-side more and the contact with my clit loosens a bit – something a lot of magnetic panty vibes do to some degree. The toy doesn’t drift sideways or come loose, but gravity pulls my underwear (and the toy with it) a bit away from my clit when I’m upright. Pulling everything up to sit closer to my body fixes it, but it’s an adjustment I make every so often.

The NS Novelties Techno Lucy is the most comfortable panty vibrator I’ve tested. It stays comfortable both in bed and while you’re up and moving around – where most panty vibrators drop in comfort to some degree when walking.

The same design that makes it fit so securely also keeps it comfortable. The broad clit-end distributes pressure evenly across your clit area, the slim section between your legs prevents it from getting bumped around much with movement, and the form curves to stay snug against your body.

In bed, the contours extremely well to the body. Like the Sexy Secret, it’s the easiest panty vibrator I’ve found to settle into a comfortable placement, but the Lucy is far more stimulating.

During light activity like walking around the house or sitting at a desk, the broad, plush surface keeps good contact with the clit without any uncomfortable “tapping”, even if the toy is jostled a bit. When sitting, the extra pressure distributes evenly across the plush surface. The Lucy is one toy I could wear for a long time without becoming uncomfortable.

The Moxie+ is comfortable without too much movement, but its firm, slim body delivers more focused pressure on my clit than broader panty vibrators – pleasant if you like a precise point of contact, potentially uncomfortable if you don’t.

In bed, the silicone surface is soft and smooth and doesn’t tap around too much. With no flex and a slim profile, the Moxie+ contacts a precise area for focused stimulation.

When I’m walking around, the same firm, straight shape shifts more than a broader or contoured toy would – particularly on stairs or when I’m going from sitting to standing. Sometimes this can feel more stimulating, but other times it’s uncomfortable. If you’re sensitive to overstimulation, the lack of control here may be overwhelming.

A broader panty vibrator with more even pressure is more consistently comfortable. Like the VeDO Niki (remote-controlled) and the NS Novelties Techno Lucy (app-controlled). Two more comfortable picks at a lower price.

The Lucy is exceptionally quiet – tied for the quietest panty vibrator I’ve tested. And unlike the others tied with it (Satisfyer Sexy Secret, Little Secret, and Romp Party), it’s also one of the most stimulating.

Decibel readings on low and high power were extremely quiet, too quiet for my Sound Level Meter to pick up. The ambient room noise was 35 dBA, and the Lucy never measured higher than this.

The Lucy is also in the most discreet tier of wearable vibrators I’ve tested in our Background Noise Masking subtest. In this subtest, I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). He couldn’t hear the Lucy at any vibration strength while playing any of our three volumes of background noise audio. It’s definitely audible in our room without any background audio playing – but every wearable vibrator I’ve tested is, no matter how gentle and quiet the vibrations are.

Behind a closed bedroom door, the Lucy was similarly inaudible. For this part of the noise test, my partner listens from outside the closed door while I use the toy in bed. I use it like a handheld toy since wearing dampens sound, and some people want the flexibility to safely reposition the toy or move it around. Holding the toy instead of wearing it gives us the most conservative results. He couldn’t hear the Lucy at any setting from behind our bedroom door – no fan or music needed to mask it.

The We-Vibe Moxie+ is quiet.

Decibel readings on low and high were both too quiet for our Sound Level Meter to register. The ambient room noise was 35 dBA, and the Moxie+ never measured higher than that.

For our Background Noise Masking subtest, I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). At our quiet audio (56 dB), every setting was masked except high – on high, my partner could just barely make out a low hum, and only when I held still. Once I started moving, even high became hard to discern.

At our moderate and loud volumes, every setting was fully masked. It’s also worth noting that every wearable I’ve tested, including the Moxie+, is audible in a fully silent room (no pink noise playing) – no matter how gentle and quiet its vibrations are.

For the closed-door test, my partner listens directly outside our bedroom door while I use the toy in bed. I use it as a handheld since wearing dampens sound and some people want the flexibility to safely re-position the toy or move it around – holding gives the most conservative results. My partner could not hear the Moxie+ on any power level.

It’s worth noting that the Moxie+ is quieter than the original Moxie. We’re uncertain whether that is a design upgrade, or if the Moxie just grew lounder over time.

If you want a panty vibrator that was fully masked by our quietest tested background level (56 dBA), consider the NS Novelties Techno Lucy (app-controlled) or VeDO Niki (remote-controlled).

The Lucy has a short battery life – it lasted 55 minutes in my test on its highest setting. That’s lower than high-end panty vibrators – the average runs closer to 90 minutes, and the Lovense Ferri lasts closer to three hours. You can extend the Lucy’s battery life during normal use since you’ll likely also use the lower settings some too.

The Moxie+ has decent battery life – 85 minutes on its highest power in our test. If you specifically want a long battery life, go with the Lovense Ferri which lasted nearly twice as long (168 minutes).

The Lucy is easy to clean. It’s fully IPX7 waterproof, so you can clean it under a running faucet or fully submerge it in soapy water without worry.

The We-Vibe Moxie+ is fully IPX7 waterproof, so it’s very easy to clean. You can run it under a faucet or fully submerge it in soapy water without worry.

The Lucy feels high quality, especially for a budget panty vibrator. It’s covered entirely in thick-feeling silicone with a nice flex to it, the button presses with a satisfying click, and the broad, strong magnet creates a solid, sturdy connection.

The Moxie+ is solidly built. The body is nearly identical to the original We-Vibe Moxie – a smooth silicone coating over a firm core, with a moderate-strength magnet holding it to your underwear. The on-toy button is the older We-Vibe design, harder to press than the buttons on newer toys but still workable.
