I didn’t think a wand could surprise me until I met the LELO’s new release


Hannah Montana once said, ‘You get the best of both worlds,’ and with the new LELO SWITCH, that’s certainly true. She was singing about the struggle of being a high schooler and a pop star (my 29-year-old, bags-under-the-eyes self can’t relate), but when it comes to LELO’s new double-sided wand vibrator, it’s all about getting the best of all kinds of pleasure.

The Swedish sexual wellness brand has delivered on clit vibrators, G-spot vibrators, and vibrating cock rings — not to mention the beloved LELO ENIGMA. But it’s now given the OG sex toy, the magic wand, a much-needed upgrade. Measuring in at 8.5 inches, LELO’s double-duty delight packs motors at both ends, so you can twirl it like a baton depending on where you want the buzz.

For those in need of a quick recap, the wand is arguably one of the most versatile sex toy types. “A wand vibrator can also be used to build up tension, teasing and anticipation all over the body,” says Kate Moyles, sex and relationship expert for LELO, “by using the gentler settings and trailing the toy up and down to explore different erogenous zones, whether solo or with a partner.”

A standout feature of the new brand’s newest launch, though? That Bluetooth connection to the LELO app, meaning you — or a partner — can control it remotely without desperately pressing buttons and accidentally reverting to the gentlest rumble (true story). Personally, I love the freedom it gives me to take full control of my pleasure.

How I tested the LELO SWITCH:

The GLAMOUR shopping team, made up of people of all preferences and ages, has been testing sex toys for the past five years — and after half a decade’s worth of thorough reviewing, we know what it takes to make a great finger vibrator, rabbit vibrator, magic wand vibrator and the like.

I paired LELO’s newest sex toy with water-based lube and tested during solo masturbation. I then scored it against the following criteria:

  • Ease of use — Could I work out the control panel without a cover-to-cover read of the instruction manual?
  • Speed and intensity of orgasm — Did it provide pleasurable sensations, or simply numb my erogenous zones?
  • Design — Was it ergonomic, easy to hold and fit for purpose?
  • Settings — Was there enough variety? Any unique patterns I haven’t seen before?
  • Volume — Does it count as a quiet vibrator? AKA, was it quieter than your electric toothbrush?
  • Waterproof — Did it work effectively in the bath and/or shower?

I have been writing about sex and relationships for over three years, and during the past year, specifically, I have tested dozens of the latest launches in the sexual wellness space. From vibrators and sex toys for couples to condoms, lubricants, and even splash-proof bedding, I keep a close eye on what is new, what is gimmick, and what genuinely serves pleasure.

Alongside hands-on testing, I regularly attend product launches, interview leading sexual health experts, and immerse myself in press events dedicated to intimacy and innovation. This combination of research and real-world experience allows me to confidently advise you on which brands deserve your attention and which products are actually worth investing in.


Everything you need to know about the LELO SWITCH

Time to take this bad boy on the road! Charging was quick, and I loved the little detail of the toy lighting up while it charged. Too many of us have been burned by discovering our favourite toy wasn’t connected properly, usually after a lot of hand cramps and old-fashioned frustration.

I started testing the LELO Switch and quickly discovered the rounded side wasn’t really doing it for me. I flipped it, added a bit of the included lube (thanks, LELO), and suddenly we were off to a great start. Shallow thrusting definitely hits the spot. While it delivers on G-spot stimulation, it also works beautifully against the clit, like a soft yet firm bullet vibrator.

The next day, I realised in my excitement I’d skipped downloading the LELO app. Yes, there’s an app now that literally lets you connect your favourite vibrators. With a solid playlist on (Hey Alexa, play ‘False God’), my phone in one hand and the LELO Switch in the other, I was ready to go again—and wow, I should have done this from the start.
