But amidst a sea of sex toys on the market, where does Lapis truly stand? In this detailed review, we aim to cut through the noise, offering an honest, hands-on assessment of its features, build, app integration, and overall user experience. If you’re curious about the Lapis, or simply in the quest for an authentic take on modern intimate devices, we aim to provide clarity. Let’s delve in!

What is Lovense Lapis?

Lapis is a body-safe silicone strapless strapon with an adjustable neck and teledildonic capabilities. The duel motor means the wearer and receiver will experience strong vibrations and other delicious sensations. But if you’re new to this kind of toy, here’s a little more information:

  • Strapless strapons are sometimes also known as “double dildos
  • One end is phallic shaped and the other is a curved end to fit and stay inside the vagina
  • Some models also come with a “strap-on harness” to help keep the toy in place (if you feel that the curved end isn’t giving you enough control over thrusting)
  • Note – sometimes double dildos are also one long dildo with a “head” shape at each end

Unboxing and First Impressions

What’s in the Box?

Inside, you’ll find the standard collection – although what’s been included has changed over the years. Like before there were two user manuals (but we now have just one) and there was no free pouch. Now, you’ll get…

  • Lovense Lapis strapless strapon
  • USB magnetic charging cable
  • A user manual that is mostly easy-to-understand visuals
  • A silk baggie to store the toy (because even the best silicone will attract dust)

Packaging Quality

Normally, it would be the “same old, same old” review when it comes to how the toy arrives. But Lapis gave me quite a surprise when I opened the box. Instead of the normal foam cutout that is customized to the toy’s shape, we now have a plastic holder.

I made sure to give this new part a good poking, and the plastic seems thicker/stronger than most of what I’ve seen in other sex toy packaging. I’m not sure why they changed over but there’s really nothing wrong with the new style. The box and holder will keep everything safe during transit.

Discreet Packaging & Shipping

For those concerned about privacy, Lovense makes sure that all their toys are shipped discreetly. The outer box is plain cardboard with a barcode sticker – that’s it. And the shipping address doesn’t say it’s from Lovense, but rather the official company name – which is very generic and no one will have a clue. This includes having it shipped to you with the intention of giving it as a gift.

All the Technical Stuff

Button Functions

Having 3 vibration points, one would think the buttons would be complicated. But there is a single one conveniently located on the side of the toy. Hardpress it for 3 seconds and the toy will turn on. Quick press the same button to cycle through the 3 steady levels and 10 patterns. Finally, hard press the button for around 3 seconds to turn it off. Easy peasy.

Lapis’ Dimensions

Everyone’s body is different, so it’s good to know exactly how big things are – especially for strapless strapons.

App Features

Lovense toys are generally powerful, but the real technological power aspect shines in their app. There’s a plethora of ways to play with your toy. From Bluetooth pairing and long-distance connections to spicy games that Lapis and the other products will sync to.

Bluetooth Connection

Bluetooth comes with its own problems (no matter what the tech). Like, distanced or … walls. Even crossing your legs while donning a wearable toy will decrease the distance. I’ve also seen that sitting on a Lush 3 butt plug will drop it by a little more. but that’s the fault of BT. Hopefully, with each new update, things will get better.

But does all this mean you should ignore this feature? Absolutely not. There will be plenty of opportunities to use Lapis in close proximity – especially since this is a toy you’re not going to wear out of the bedroom. For example, the person on the receiving end could use BT to control the vibrations and surprise the wearer.

Long-Distance Connection

For long-distance couples or those who just have a lot of space between them at times, the long-distance connection features is one thing that I (as well as most other user) love. With a few clicks of a button, you can control someone’s toy from anywhere in the world. There’s also the option of giving someone a time-limited control link (if you want to have some anonymous, yet safe, play online.

Even if Lapis is a strapless strap-on (and insinuates that it takes two to tango), you can still use it solo by flipping it around to make it a dildo and the insertable nub a make-shift clit stimulator. If you think of it this way, it’s sort of a 2-in-1 toy.

App Adventures

Besides different ways to connect, here are the other ways you can play with Lapis…

  • Dynamic Audiobook Interaction: Transform passive listening into a tactile journey. When synced with specific erotic audiobooks, Lapis brings narratives off the page and onto the skin.
  • Vibes to Music: Take any song in your arsenal and feel the vibes sync to the beats.
  • Music Video Interaction: Another option is another sync-to-music aspect but using music videos/music instead. Especially great if the video is sexy.
  • Sound Sync: Lapis has the ability to match its rhythm with ambient noises, be it from a boisterous party or even an errant lawnmower.
  • Immersive Gaming: Lovenes has an impressive library of X-rated computer games they’ve partnered with. As you play, and steamy scenes appear, you’ll feel like you’re in the game.
  • Interactive VR Porn: If you just want to sit back and enjoy, there are countless sites and clips that Lapis will vibrate to the scene.
  • Car Sync: The device intensifies its vibrations in correlation with your car’s speed. Remember, safety first, pleasure second. (Obviously, the passenger would be wearing it like a dildo).

How to use Lovense Remote App

To get started, download the “Lovense Remote” from your app store, wake up your Lapis, and pair the two. After that, it’s pure, shivering exploration. Here’s how…

Fun Fact: Lovense toys sync REALLY well with Dubstep – that is if you want to feel the beats on-point.

My Testing Experiences

Design & Build Quality

The body-safe silicone was as I expected (I’ve tested all other Lovense toys). There’s a tiny bit of drag, but that’s to be expected and it will immediately go away when you apply lube (which we all should). The design is solid and I could feel a nice weight to the toy.

The adjustable neck is going to be the real star, in my opinion. I align it to a prostate massager – no two bodies are the same to get “just the right stimulation or fit”. The same goes for strapless strapons.

Vibrations, Patterns, & Intensity

Pleasure & Comfort

Being able to adjust Lapis’ neck made a total difference when it came to comfort. At its closest “V” it was too tight and the angle would have created unpleasant pressure on my G-spot. I will say that this won’t be a plug-and-play toy. You’ll have to fidget and test with the neck angles to find what’s right for you. After that, you’ll know where to set it and can play immediately.

The vibrations were deep and rumbly and every steady setting. I would like to program the toy to change the steady levels to something higher, but that’s only because I’m a power queen.

Since I don’t have anyone to test it on, I had to use a Max 2 as the “other person”. Lapis stayed in place for gentle thrusting. However, if you’re someone who likes passionate play, having their legs open, or changing positions, I would suggest getting a harness for extra stability.

Battery Life & Charging

I like to rate battery life by comparing the recharge time versus the use time. The magnetic charging clip with USB end will get you 105 minutes to a full charge. Then, if you play on the highest possible vibration levels, you’ll get 58-62 minutes and 146-156 minutes on the lowest. If we average everything out (keeping in mind that I failed math class in high school) the average seems to be about a 1:1 ratio for charging vs use. This is fairly decent considering there are 3 motors/vibrators going at the same time.

Price Point

Lapis falls into the premium segment, and given its features and build quality, it offers good value for money. But it still could be unaffordable for some people. But I’ll tell you, just wait for special holiday sales or giveaways/contests Lovense sometimes has

Three motor points, strong vibrations, adjustble neck, and endless pleasure possibilities. Why settle for ordinary when you can have extraordinary?

Yes, there are all the apps and goodies that come with it. But there are two more things that many people might not know. Throughout the year, Lovense has regular Twitter orgies, where your consensually connected toy will react with various vibrations depending on what hashtags are listed. Second, there are also Lovense Discord orgies that follow the same idea but have a different way to interact.

I think these could be particularly fun for two people using Lapis – far more than the other toys because you have the element of surprise from the users AND the digital participants.

“Honestly, I bought the Lapis on a whim and didn’t have super high hopes. But it’s actually become my go-to. The part where it syncs with music? Surprisingly fun for solo nights. 10/10 would recommend.”

Pros and Cons

Pros of Lapis:

  • Premium build quality with body-safe silicone
  • The 3 steady levels can be reprogrammed to what you prefer
  • Vibrations can be custom-made or downloaded from the free Lovense pattern library and saved (10 of them) into Lapis
  • Flexible neck
  • A decent battery life
  • Amazing interactive features
  • Not linked to gender, can be used by anyone

Cons of Lapis:

  • Premium price tag
  • The strapless design might not be to everyone’s liking and would need the harness to make it easier to use.
  • Maybe a bit of a learning curve for those who are new to this kind of toy.

Cleaning, Care & Safety

How to Take Care of Lovense Lapis

Caring for Lapis is like most silicone toys. Make sure to wash it before and after each use with warm water and mild soap. Sex toy cleaner is okay if you’re in a pinch. After, make sure it’s completely dry and stored in the baggie. Also, use water-based lubricant only.

Why Good Maintenance Is Vital

Taking good care of your sex toys will 100% prolong their lives. For example, if you use silicone lube on a silicone toy, the material will degrade into a sticky, horrible paste. Storing silicone toys together (without a baggie or container) will also affect the material. Finally, even if Lapis has a 120-hour standby time, you MUST recharge it every 6 months to keep the battery healthy.

“I’ve tried a few Lovense products, but the Lapis? Man, it’s something else. The whole strapless thing took a bit to get used to, but once you’re there, it’s amazing. My only change? I would want a harness too.”

Warranty, Returns, and Customer Support

Lovense stands by its products, offering a 1-year warranty on Lapis. For any issues, their customer support is responsive and helpful. But keep in mind it’s only for manufacturer’s defects – not user neglect or accidents. You’ll probably be asked to provide proof the toy is damaged or not working.

They’ll probably ask for photos or videos of the problem, but this doesn’t mean they want to see the problem while you use the toy on yourself! I’ve heard that the poor customer service agents often have to brace themselves before inspecting the proof.

Comparing Other Lovense Products

The biggest one people are going to ask about is if they should get Lapis or Nora. Both are solid contenders in their own way. But if you want to partake in pegging of any kind (or having a second person being any kind of recipient), then it has to be Lapis. If you just need solo play or are fine with someone using their hand to control the toy, then Nora is the one.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Nora has been upgraded and updated over the years, while Lapis is first-generation.

Who It’s For & Not For


  • Lovense Lapis is perfect for couples who want to take things up a notch in the spice department.
  • For someone who wants a “sort of” 2-in-one toy.
  • For lesbian couples.
  • Excellent for couples who stream adult content – for tip activation.
  • Those super curious about pegging.
  • It’s not for those who are just a little curious about dual-play/pegging and are on the fence – get a cheaper toy to test first.
  • It’s also not for anyone on a strict budget.

Final Thoughts


Even if I was muddling around with Max 2 as my second person, I could still get a decent feeling of what the real thing would be like. I loved the rumbly vibrations a lot. The neck had to be spread wide open for me (just how my body is shaped) to find the best pleasure point. But this would mean that any extended or enthusiastic play would call for a harness.

All-in-all, I give Lapis a 9/10.
