Why Owning Your Pleasure Matters, And How It Transforms Solo & Partnered Sex.
Here’s the truth about pleasure: the more you explore what your body loves, the better it gets. And because I apparently can’t stop roping in anonymous friends for the sake of science (and good stories), our fearless yet anonymous reviewer agreed to try the new LELO SONA 3; a luxury sonic clitoral stimulator that’s redefining how we think about solo and partnered play.
When I asked our anonymous reviewer what she wishes she’d known sooner about pleasure, her answer was simple yet powerful:
“The more freely you take ownership of your own pleasure, the more you shamelessly explore, play & understand what gets you there (not just physically, IYKYK), the sooner you stop feeling ‘selfish’ for getting yours…the better it gets 😍 I wish I knew just how big a difference it made with or without a partner.”
LELO has built its entire brand around this idea: pleasure isn’t a guilty secret; it’s self-care. Whether you’re solo or sharing the moment, taking charge of your own experience can shift how you feel about your body, your confidence, and your relationships.
First Impressions of the LELO SONA 3:
“The packaging was sleek, sexy, & simple which I love. The toy is so cute in white & rose gold in this sexy little black box, definitely giving luxury without too many bells & whistles.”
LELO sex toys have always felt more like designer accessories than secret gadgets tucked away in a drawer… and the SONA™ 3 is no exception.
How It Feels: Sonic Pulses vs. Vibration
“I own a few vibrators & this one is definitely unique. As I mentioned, it’s not penetrative so while she can be the main event, it does leave a little more room for additional play whether with a partner or for self pleasure. It also has that unique little curved handle which makes for a more nuanced experience in terms of angles, pressure & sensation than other toys.”
The SONA™ 3 clitoral vibrator uses sonic waves to deliver deep pulses both on and below the surface of the clit without direct contact. The result? A whole new kind of orgasm that feels fuller, deeper, and more intense.
Is It Good for Beginners?
“Depending on how adventurous they were feeling, but I probably would recommend it. It may not be everyone’s perfect starter given it’s not a one stop shop for penetrative & clitoral stimulation but Overall, it’s super simple & intuitive to use, versatile - it’s so easy to switch between vibe patterns if you’re extra like me - and especially great if you like to share with a partner.”
While it might not be the first sex toy someone tries, it’s an excellent step up for anyone curious about exploring different sensations.
Standout Features of the LELO SONA™ 3
”I LOVE how easy it is to switch between the 10 vibe patterns AND regulate 16 intensity settings without having to interrupt the fun to toggle a bunch of settings. I love the curve of the design - it gives the versatility/maneuverability of having a handle while remaining a pretty compact toy. I also love that the different vibe patterns aren’t TOO wild & crazy but there’s a nice little range. It also doesn’t force intensity on you from jump, there are delicate settings as well.”
What tips would you give someone using this sex toy for the first time?
“It may seem pretty straightforward, but don’t be afraid to play, get creative; it’s pretty straightforward but far from limited to a standard boring one-vibe toy .”
The App & Love Bridge
LELO’s app adds two new modes: “Finish Me Off” for an intense finale, and “Out of Control” for a surprise ride. Love Bridge also lets partners control each other’s toys from anywhere in the world (hint hint: a fun sex toy for long-distance couples).
