Remote, Bluetooth, or app-control vibrators give you way more control than most manual options allow (aka, if your vibrator's just not hitting the spot, you can easily change its settings without pausing and having to get back into the groove).
Remote-control vibrators allow you or a partner to adjust the speed and settings without reaching down between your legs, says sex educator Jess OReilly, host of the @ SexWithDrJess podcast.
Beyond that, having a vibrator that you can control remotely allows you to subtly excite your partner at unexpected momentssay, by fooling around with the remote when you're in a group setting (hello, foreplay) or at a date night dinner that will undoubtedly lead to a sex session later.
"The element of surprise is an amazing addition to the bedroom, but it can be difficult to achieve without this feature," says Dominnique Karetsos, resident sex expert at next-level vibrator brand MysteryVibe .
Even cooler, you dont even have to be in the same place as your partner when you use it, a handy feature if you're not in the same room as the person you want to get busy with. Some app-enabled vibrators allow you to play with someone who is in another room or even on another continent, OReilly points out. Game changer.
Oh, and last but not least? In certain positions , accessing manual buttons on a vibrator can be annoyingly difficult. "The ability to operate a vibrator remotely allows you to try more experimental positions while still experiencing maximum pleasure," Karetsos explains. Ah, thank G for technology.
