The advancement of technology has revolutionized the way men engage in self-pleasure. As well all know, sex tech has been a dominating force over the last few years. Today, we’re going to look at Calor by Lovense – a male masturbator that isn’t just filled with pleasurable bells and whistles, but versatility as well.
In this review, I’m going to go over the product in detail – vital stats and elements, personal experiences, other user experiences, pros and cons, and other useful information. Whether you are curious about the latest sex toys or want to upgrade your self-pleasure arsenal, this article will help you. Let’s dive in and explore Calor by Lovense!
What is Calor by Lovense?
If you’re a fan of Lovense toys, you’ve definitely heard of Max 2 – the upgrade to the original Max and one of the first of the Lovense teledildonic toys ever to hit the market. If not that’s totally okay. Welcome to the world of insanely pleasurable app-controlled sex toys.
However, the company decided one wasn’t enough and expanded its portfolio to include Calor. It’s a pocket pussy with vibrating and contracting features. But the biggest difference you’ll notice is that the contracting part in color comes from manual squeezing. The new elements that make Calor unique are that it has a heating feature and depth control.
The Packaging & Details
Calor has the same new packaging that Lovense converted to a while ago. Even if the delivery person is less than gentle with the package, the inner foam case works quite well. Other than that, you’ll find this inside…
- 1 black satin baggie fitted to the toy’s size
- 1 magnetic charging cable
- 2 user manuals – Update: as of now, there is only ONE user manual.
- 1 Calor by Lovense
Other potentially useful information:
- 1.5-2 hours of continuous use – this depends on what vibrations speed you’re using and how many other functions you have on. Basically, with any sex toy, the more juice you use the faster the batter will drain. Just common sense.
- It’s made from body-safe materials, with a silicone inside.
- It’s IPX7 waterproof, so you can have fun with it in all kinds of places.
- USB rechargeable – be very sure not to lose the cord because the connecting end is unqiue
- A 1-Year Warranty – but that’s pretty standard for Lovense toys.
- Long-distance control anywhere in the world (through the app) as well as Bluetooth for closer quarters.
- Unlimited vibration patterns – especially if you access the free public library of patterns
- It syncs to music as well as a “sound activation” feature (like reacting to moans, ambient noises, or whatever).
- You can set your vibrations levels (on of my favorite Lovense options) – meaning you can choose how strong your low/med/high vibrations are and save them to the toy.
- You can sync them to a Max, Max 2, a Nora, or another Calor. So whichever toy is “in charge”, the other toy will react.
On the note of vibrations and patterns, if you’re confused about the toys saying “three levels and 10 patterns” that just means the toy can STORE 10 patterns into the button setting. However, you have unlimited access to whatever patterns you want to create or download. Then, choose your favorite 10 and input them into Calor. Or, just keep the factory settings if you’re happy with them.
Calor by Lovense – What’s Going on Inside?
I immediately notice that it was much shorter than Max 2 as well as covered in a black silicone casing. One of the caps ends also pops off so you can get inside the fun part. I guess the cap is to keep things clean, which is good.
The buttons and magnetic charging dots are standard fare (which isn’t a bad thing). Just don’t lose the cord (as mentioned above). To get the fun going…
- Hard press the “up” button for 3 seconds to turn on the toy
- Tap the “up” button again to cycle through the preset vibrations (remember you can change them later on if you don’t like them)
But what makes it different than Max 2?
The heating mechanism inside gets toasty warm. But in a pleasurable way of course.
HOW: Connect the toy to the charging cable and hard press the up button (AKA button A) for 3 seconds. Button B will blink as an indicator light for around 20 minutes until it’s heated. Just remember, the end temperature result can vary if your room is hot or cold.
Then there’s the yummy depth sensor (the auto default setting when you turn it on). Basically, the deeper you thrust into the toy, the stronger it vibrates.
The squeeze-grip on the side of the toy felt weird when I was first looking at it – feeling the silicone’s flexibility was a bit startling at first, but that’s only because I’m used to different construction. But if you think about it, it’s actually a clever fix that allows men to control the pressure exactly the way they want (without the need for technical bits that bulk up the toy).

Calor by Lovense – My “Experiences”
Okay, first things first – I don’t have a wiener. But what I do have are plenty of dildos as well as male friends who constantly ask me if I’m writing reviews on male sex toys. All it took was one of my many dildos to find out that the depth sensor does indeed work …. and very well I might add. I felt the vibes all the way up through the toy, the dildo, and up my arm.
My room was on the cold side, so the heating took a tad longer. But the end result was really nice to stick my fingers into (mostly because it was freezing lol). My male friend didn’t give the toy back for a few weeks – that’s how much he loved it. He also said that he didn’t mind having to squeeze the toy because he could appreciate the delicate changes in pressure someone might need during their masturbation (even though he’s a fan of the Max 2 contractions).
The Pros and Cons of Calor
- Pro – The programmability of this toy is insane. You should be able to get whatever specific combination curls your toes the best.
- Con – At full price, this toy is a bit expensive (but maybe that’s just because I’m a bit of a cheapskate). BUT Lovense always has sales going, so you should be able to get it at a really great deal.
- Pro – The depth sensor and heating function are excellent features.
- Con – I find the battery-use to be a bit on the low side, especially compared to their other toys. Still, 2 hours of masturbation fun might be plenty for some people.
- Pro – The silicon and waterproof aspects I truly love in any sex toy.
- Neutral – remember you use lots of lube with any sex toy, including this one.
- Con – Some people might find the button action to be a bit of a learning curve, but once you get it it’s quite simple.
- Pro – The long-distance functions and syncing with the other sex toys mentioned above is great for long-distance relationships, people who have to do a lot of traveling, or those looking to spice things up in the sex department.
- Neutral – The squeezing function is something that will definitely be personal. It’s something you’re going to want and love or not have at the top of your list.

Lovense Calor – End Thoughts & User Comments
In my opinion, color is a solid addition to the Lovense portfolio. It has enough unique features that set it apart from Max 2 while still being a pleasurable toy. I think there are a few tiny bugs to work out – mostly in the design area as well as battery efficiency. However, none of this takes away from the amazing sensations Calor delivers.
Hear what some other users have said (directly from Lovense.com):
- Very enjoyable, kinda thought the grip was more automated than tightening my hands tho.
- Love it! The design is very accommodating and I like how your hand grip can be felt. Only downside is where there buttons are is where you hold it and that’s not exactly the greatest thing but over all it’s a great toy
- Amazing products. Very nice for something to use while relaxing and definitely helps with stress. Highly recommend it. I feel like the sound isn’t too loud. I can bearly hear it and if you want to feel a bit more secure I recommend turning on a fan/heater or TV to flush out the sound so you can feel a bit more peace at mind that it won’t bother room mates or guest. But if you’re alone go full blast IMO.
In the end, remember this – the more feedback you give the company the better the next generation toy will be. Because 99% of changes to upgraded Lovense toys are made from customer feedback.
Would I recommend this toy? Absolutely. It’s a solid pocket pussy that will bring you hours of ecstasy and plenty of orgasms. Click HERE to go to the Lovense Calor page.
