The product: We-Vibe Nova Rabbit Vibrator (Dual-Stimulation Silicone Vibrator)

2022 was… Let’s be honest, it was not a great year for me, posting-wise, on theNotice. I got to cover a lot of products I just adored, but the volume wasn’t there! So, for 2023, I’m starting the year off right with a fresh review of the We-Vibe Nova 2, my new favourite toy from the We-Vibe lineup.

For 2023, I’m hoping to post a little more, mainly featuring products that have been stalwart favourites in my collection. We’ll start here, but also on my docket are some new toys from ROMP, a gorgeous Charlotte Tilbury concealer that I use every single day, and probably a little skincare too…

We-Vibe Nova 2 features

• Rechargeable: runs for 120 minutes on a 90 minute charge.

Why the We-Vibe Nova is one of the best rabbit vibrators I’ve ever tried

The We-Vibe Nova 2 is unique in three ways compared to other rabbit style vibrators that I’ve tried. These three features make this the best rabbit vibrator I’ve ever tried or reviewed.

Firstly, the Nova has a really unique clitoral arm (the external part). Instead of reaching for the clitoris at its tip, it has a large degree of flex. This means that, depending on angles, body types, and physiology, it can make contact on its lower surface, tip, or outer surface. I usually direct online shoppers away from rabbit vibes because there’s a good chance that their clitoris won’t be at the spot where the vibe ends, but the Nova doesn’t have that issue. 

Secondly, this rabbit vibe is covered in a really delicious, plush silicone. That makes it perfect for delivering diffuse vibration and makes the clitoral arm feel comfortable no matter where it hits. For my body, the pairing of the Nova’s plushness and size means that I can use it hands-free and it stays in exactly the right spot, which is… *skies open, angels sing*.

Thirdly and finally, this toy uses a stunning We-Vibe motor. We-Vibe makes some of my favourite powerful, rumbly motors, and the one they’ve used here is excellent. This motor is strong, deep, and rumbles through the entire toy, so you can achieve a nice sensation no matter where your body makes contact with the product’s arms.

How does the Nova 2 compare?

The Nova 2 adds a plush, full silicone body to the original Nova model. It has more flex than most rabbit vibrators—in both arms—and comes in both Midnight Blue (featured here) and Pink.

It is, compared to other sex toys, wildly linty. I have no idea why. It meant that I had to edit the hell out of these photos, but its finish feels so nice that I can’t find that I really mind. This is, in my mind, the perfect silicone finish; soft, plush, smooth, velvety… it feels so nice during use and in your hands.

It is linty. And its storage bag makes it even more linty. But it is worth the lint.

Is this an app-controlled sex toy?

Yes! I don’t tend to use app-controlled sex toys because I find most of the interfaces to be so patchy—they routinely drop connection just when you need it the most—but the We-Vibe Nova 2 is a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled app-controlled sex toy. You can control this from the same room or, through paired phones, long-distance.

The We-Connect app gives users control over rhythms, intensities, and vibration placement (internal/external/both). Again, I wouldn’t use the app if given a choice, but you can. (It’s very nice for long-distance partners!)

The verdict?

As someone who routinely, habitually advises people not to buy dual stimulation or rabbit-style vibrators because they can be so hit and miss… I actually love the Nova. It handles all of my critiques of other rabbit vibes to create a product that I can wholeheartedly recommend. 

If you’re looking for a dual-stim toy but you’re worried about the product’s fit, the We-Vibe Nova is an awesome product to reach for instead. It won’t deliver pinpoint stimulation, which some users prefer, but its unique design covers a lot more area and will fit a lot more body shapes than other toys I’ve tried of this style.

Also, the fact that its plushness makes it ideal for hands-free use? Stunning.

Availability: The We-Vibe Nova 2 Rabbit Vibe is available for $159 CAD/$149 USD at We-Vibe.

Fun fact: We-Vibe sent me this vibe—I think around the time of its launch—and it sat in my product closet for over a year. I tried it totally on a whim one day while doing product testing and haven’t looked back since.
