Create and maintain physical intimacy in your LDR with long distance sex toys. We review the best options, including LGBTQ+ inclusive options!

As long distance couples, we naturally focus most of our energy on emotional intimacy. Since we can’t physically be together as often as we would like, we spend most of our time building a deep connection through communication.

However, physical intimacy is just as important as emotional intimacy in a relationship. But because of the distance, it doesn’t get the attention that it needs.

We strongly believe that long distance sex toys are the best way to create and maintain physical intimacy when you can’t be together.

How do long distance sex toys work?

Also called teledildonics, long distance sex toys use Bluetooth and smartphone applications to communicate with each other over the internet. The connected devices utilise haptic feedback technology so that each device can be controlled by the movements of the other.

This “remote sex” helps to create an environment where you and your partner are pleasuring each other, rather than pleasuring yourselves.

It is worth noting that not all couples sex toys are created equal. That’s why we have put together a list of the best long distance sex toys to enhance your relationship.

We have also included options for the LGBTQ+ community, and are proud to support companies with an inclusive vision.

The Best Sex Toys For Long Distance Couples in 2024

Nora & Max 2 by Lovense

Max 2 & Nora by Lovense

Lovense is at the top of the pack with Nora & Max 2, which connect via Bluetooth and the Lovense Remote App.

Each toy can be controlled by the other or you can use the remote control features within their application. There is also the ability to record sessions to replay the same moves and audio in the future, which is perfect for couples who live in vastly different time zones.

One area that Lovense sets themselves apart from other companies is that their applications are also compatible with PC and Mac computers. Rather than just iOS and Android devices.

How Max 2 and Nora Interact

Moving the Max 2 up and down activates the rotating head on the Nora. Faster strokes with Max 2 increase Nora’s rotation speed. Likewise, the air pumper in Max 2 responds to the speed that Nora moves, with the intensity of contractions responding to the speed of Nora.

  • Charge time: 2 hours

Nora Battery Life & Charging

Pearl 2 & Onyx+ by Kiiroo

Onyx+ & Pearl 2 by Kiiroo

The Pearl 2 & Onyx+ are Kiiroo’s most popular combination for long distance couples that use the FeelConnect application and platform.

Pearl 2 is a G-spot vibrator equipped with touch-sensitive technology, which uses sensors to adjusts the intensity and speed of vibrations based on amount of pressure being applied. For example: More pressure will generate more intense vibrations, while less pressure will decrease the intensity.

Kiiroo recently launched the third-generation Onyx+, which can reach up to a whopping 140 strokes per minute. The rotating motor that produces the up and down movements to simulate intercourse has also gone through some major improvements.

How Pearl 2 and Onyx+ Interact

When inserting the Pearl 2, the Onyx+ contracts and strokes to match the speed. Moving it in and out faster will increase the intensity of stroking and contractions. Meanwhile, a touchpad on Onyx+ can control the speed and type of vibrations felt when using the Pearl 2.

Onyx+ Battery Life & Charging

  • Usage time: 1 hour
  • Charge time: 4 hours

Cliona & TITAN by Kiiroo

Cliona & TITAN by Kiiroo

The team at Kiiroo knows that everyone has different preferences when it comes to stimulation. The Cliona & TITAN couples set is a great example of this.

Cliona was designed for women who prefer clitoral stimulation over vaginal stimulation. It’s also waterproof making it a perfect option for use in the bath or shower.

Kiiroo created the TITAN For men who prefer a manual stroking sensation over an automatic one. They included a real-feel sleeve along with nine bullet vibrators strategically placed to enhance the overall experience.

How Cliona and Titan Interact

The Titan has three touch-sensitive pads to control the Cliona’s vibrations. Each pad will increase or decrease the speed and intensity being felt. While rubbing or inserting the Cliona, the Titan’s bullet vibrators will match the movements and speed. How deep the Cliona is inserted and how much pressure is used will determine which bullet vibrators in the Titan are activated and the intensity of their vibrations.

Titan Battery Life & Charging

  • Usage time: 30-40 minutes
  • Charge time: 3.5 hours

Cliona Battery Life & Charging

  • Usage time: 1 hour
  • Charge time: 2 hours

Fuse & Fleshlight Launch by Kiiroo

Fleshlight Launch & Fuse by Kiiroo

While the Fuse & Fleshlight Launch may look like the most intimidating connected sex toys. The power and technology Kiiroo has packed in these devices makes them hard to pass up.

As the name suggests, the Fleshlight Launch incorporates a Fleshlight, which could be used on it’s own for manual stimulation. But when it’s combined with the Launch, it can reach up to a crazy 180 strokes per minute. Creating an immersive and realistic experience that is unmatched.

The Fuse is a dual-motor device, which is perfect for anyone who enjoys vaginal and clitoral stimulation at the same time. What sets it apart is how it reacts to the users movements. Sliding the Fuse in and out will automatically adjust the level of vibration.

  • Slide it in: The intensity increases.
  • Slide it out: The intensity decreases.

How Fuse and Fleshlight Launch Interact

The Fleshlight Launch has a touchpad on the left hand side. When the devices are connected, it can control the rhythm and vibrations of the Fuse. The sensors within the Fuse allow it to align with the stroking mechanism within the Fleshlight Launch. E.g. When the Fuse slides in, the Launch strokes down and vice versa.

Launch Battery Life and Charging

  • Usage time: 2 hours
  • Charge time: 6-9 hours

Fuse Battery Life and Charging

  • Usage time: 1 hour
