Review: We-Vibe Nova

The Nova is extremely well manufactured, flexible and has powerful vibrations. Sadly, my anatomy did not fit in with the traditional manner of using this vibrator, but reversing the vibrator meant that it was able to perform its function effectively.

We-Vibe Nova Review

So, not one, but two fresh We-Vibe vibrators followed the We-Vibe Nova very carefully this year. We-Vibe is one of my top three favorite manufacturers, creators of my much-used and much-loved tango, so I was pretty thrilled when I heard the news of their latest releases.

The We-Vibe Nova is a vibrator of’ rabbit’ style, but this one is slightly distinct and a little more exciting, unlike the usual rabbit styles. Both the shaft and the clitoral arm are curved, making the shaft ideal for stimulation of the G-spot. The concept behind the clitoral arm is that you can somehow manipulate it to suit your body type(maybe), the real structure is so that the clitoral arm (in practice) should not lose contact with your clitoris as you push the vibrator. If you follow my blog, you’ll understand that when it comes to discovering a vibrator in a rabbit style that really likes to work for me, I’m excited and hopeful to try this one.

I am in a long-distance relationship, as many of you understand–which is another reason why this toy is so interesting. The Nova includes the technology used in both the We-Vibe 4 Plus and the We-Vibe Rave, which means it is fully compliant with the We-Vibe App and my OH is able to regulate this for me when we are not together. I wrote a rather comprehensive We-Vibe App ‘ review’ and’ how to’ that you can find HERE.

Nova specs

The We-Vibe Nova is made of silicone with an insertable length of 5 inches (measured from outside the curve) and a complete length of 8.5 inches. The girth at its widest point is 4 inches and at its lowest is 2.5 inches. The vibrator is rechargeable and, unlike the Rave, it has returned to magnetic charging but, luckily, it seems to be much better than the Tango magnetic chargers. Also, the magnetic charger means that the Nova is completely submersible in water, unlike the Rave.

How to charge

a USB charger is included with the Nova while a wall charger is unfortunately not included, but it can be picked up quite cheaply. I understand many individuals who prefer to use USB chargers, but I personally prefer charging vibrators by the hand. I have too many vibrators to keep them charged, and I don’t have enough USB ports on my laptop to charge them all at the same moment. The white satin toy bag, which appears to be included with most We-Vibe products, is also included.

How it operates

OK–So, I stated previously that you can control We-Vibe Nova using the We-Vibe App, but you can use the buttons on the handle if you prefer to manually manage it. I attempted to get a image of the arrows as clear as I could, but they’re a little difficult to see. So there’s a circle in the center, pressing this will turn the Nova on once. The left and right arrow keys (< >) can then be used to switch between the vibrations. Once you have the vibration / pattern you want, by pressing the up and down buttons above and below the circle, you can alter the intensity. Just keep in the circle for a few seconds to turn off. Honestly, I find the Nova buttons too rigid to push and they’re a little bit of a pain in the arse for me so I still prefer to use the App even for solo play.

We-Vibe Nova Performance

The vibrations on the Nova are lovely, they are powerful and rumbling. They’re basically all I anticipated when I first heard about it for the Nova. However, I wish I could regulate the vibrations independently in the clitoral arm and shaft.

Because of the form of this, I think it could possibly feel pretty good to use it on a penis, particularly when used in combination with a blow job. I can’t honestly comment on how nice this might feel as my OH is thousands of miles away at the moment, but for that mix the shape looks fairly ideal! So I’ll have to remember the next time my OH is here to pull this out. Let me know what you believe about the mixture if any of you tried it!

I stated that having a dual stimulator to fit me can be quite disturbing and so I hoped that it might have discovered a way to solve this issue by making it simpler for’ rabbit’ style toys to fit the majority of anatomies. That wasn’t my experience, tragically, again. I couldn’t get the clitoral arm without manipulating it to reach my clitoris. I would have to stretch it out entirely which, frankly, made it quite uneasy.

Then I attempted another way to use the vibrator. A friend proposed during a telephone conversation that I use this vibrator backwards as in, use the clitoral arm internally and have the shaft as the clitoral arm. This was more for G-Spotting than getting it to fit my anatomy, because I hadn’t used the Nova before this conversation and didn’t know it wouldn’t fit me. So I decided to take her suggestion and turn the vibrator around. Surprisingly this way everything seemed to fit, when stretched out, the clitoral arm has an inner length of 4 inches, and due to the flexible curve it managed to hit my G-spot with ease, while the longer’ shaft’ could discover, reach and boost my clitoris. Fortunately, the fact that with the APP I can (and prefer) use the Nova implies that I can continue to use it inverted as I never need to press any buttons. Using it like this feels pretty damn nice and it gives some amazing orgasms. While the Nova is fantastic, though, if I’m honest, I still prefer using the Tango and a distinct dildo.
