Playing dirty with a partner can be a whole lot of fun, but it’s usually only possible if you have a good sex toy in the mix. Think about it: How kinky can you really get when all your actions and activities are limited to what the body can and can’t do? Pleasure products were invented to enhance the human sexual experience, not complicate it. And thanks to taboos being lifted in recent years, men and women are finally able to mutually masturbate and/or arouse one another’s senses without feeling embarrassment or performance anxiety. The only problem is that there are so many options to choose from. At that point, it takes a savvy shopper and a laundry list of criteria before the right one can be found.
As luck would have it, I’ve been searching for a well-made toy for couples just like you, only my shopping trip has lasted several weeks and I’ve only encountered a few that I deem worthy of my time and attention. One such product was made by a company that’s popular for their couples-friendly selection. They’re called WE-Vibe and they’ve made this little kit called the Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection. I picked one up because I trust the maker and because the kit looked like it had a little something for everybody. So, was I wrong in my assessment or am I writing this to tell you all about the most amazing sex I ever had? Well, let me start out by making sure you know what I’m talking about before answering that question.
What Is the WE-Vibe Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection?
According to the reputable manufacturer, WE-Vibe, the Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection is a convenient tool that makes togetherness feel better than ever. Designed for comfortable, in-person or long-distance couples play, this two-part set of mutually exclusive sex toys employs top-notch craftsmanship and industry-leading technologies to deliver a wide variety of pleasurable sensations to a man and/or a woman’s body. Designed with internal and external stimulation in mind, the collection possesses user-friendly components and proven ergonomics that have been carefully curated to pinpoint the user’s erogenous zones with insane accuracy, especially when the devices are used as a pair.
The Main Features
This dynamic duo is uniquely designed, with plenty of features to please both male and female bodies. First of all, the Sync device features a series of rumbly vibrations and has an adjustable fit so you can quickly target the g-spot, p-spot, or clitoris of the wearer. As for the dual-tipped Tango device, it delivers a deeper sensation through a series of 8 modes and is designed exclusively for external stimulation anywhere on the body. All components are crafted out of skin-safe silicone and ABS plastic, with everything free from potentially harmful phthalates and clear of allergens like latex. Surprisingly, the duo is 100% waterproof too, meaning it’s suitable for bath time and poolside fun as well as kinky games in the bedroom (plus it’s super easy to clean).
Furthermore, the powerful batteries running the strong, integrated vibration functions provide more than two hours of nonstop play before needing recharged for about 90 minutes via the attractive USB base and low power alert included. The Anniversary Edition comes with its own special WE-Vibe Play Case too. This cute and compact container doubles as discreet storage and a convenient charging dock for your toys. Best of all, the entire shebang features an advanced wireless remote control to help you and your partner naturally change the vibration modes and intensity levels while in the heat of the moment. Plus, you can link each device to the We-Connect app where you’ll both be able to play and swap control from anywhere in the world while jamming to your favorite music via Beat Mode or using the real-time Touch Mode.
What Comes in the Box?
One thing I love about buying high-end sex toys like this is the number of extras you get in the box with your device(s). The WE-Vibe company is not disappoint with their Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection. Here’s what you get for the money:
- The Sync Couple’s Vibe
- The Tango Mini Vibe
- A wireless remote control
- The WE-Vibe Play Case Charger
- A USB charging cable
- A Multilingual Quick-Start User Guide
- A 2ml sample of Pjur water-based lubricant
- A Thank You card from the maker
- A 2-year manufacturer’s warranty
You can even go online to the manufacturer’s official website and download an Anniversary Collection User’s Manual if you want to have one. This is by far one of the most well-equipped sex toys I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. I needed nothing but some cleaning supplies to fully enjoy this product as the maker intended. The complexity of the device was overshadowed by the simplicity of the design and the generosity of the brand.
The Experience
Does my experience really matter? Yes, it does, because manufacturers and marketers will tell you whatever they think you want to hear just to get their greedy little hands on your hard-earned cash. Someone like me doesn’t mince words, and I certainly don’t test out a sex toy blindly. Instead, I utilize the same basic criteria for every kind of pleasure product that graces my presence. It’s only fair, and it’s the only way to find out how the WE-Vibe Anniversary Collection featuring the Sync and Tango Vibrators measured up. Here’s how it all went down:
- The Dimensions
The dimensions of this duo were impressive, at least for my purposes. The Sync offers 3 inches of insertable length and has a 3-inch girth, by the way – not sure if I mentioned that or not. As for my beloved Tango, it measured 3.5 inches in length and offers just over 2.25 inches of circumference. The remote is easy to hold in the hand and the storage case is compact enough for nightstands and traveling. So far, so good.
- The Materials
This collection is made out of a variety of skin-safe materials, including silicone and ABS plastic. That meant I could only use water-based lubricants on it and I had to find a non-abrasive sex toy cleaning solution to maintain it – not a problem. If I’m being honest, I sort of wish both devices were made out of silicone because it feels so much better on the skin and performs like a champ with lots of lube, but I digress because the materials WE-Vibe used were just fine.
- The Sensations
I didn’t have too many complaints about the materials because the ABS plastic did wonders for times when temperature play was requested. The varying vibe functions were very distinctive and left quite the impression on my sweet spots, and I wouldn’t be doing this review justice if I didn’t mention how amazing it was to have my orgasms controlled by a partner from across the state. I swear to God if this motherfucker cheats on me now that we have these things I’m going to kill him.
- The Functionality
The devices themselves were super easy to use. It was the WE-Connect app that I had a little trouble with. I had to download it, delete it, and then download it again before it worked properly. Then, my internet connection kept going out so a few of the sessions were more frustrating than satisfying. I’m relatively certain, however, that if I had better equipment at home I would have probably had a much better time. Don’t be like me.
The Ups and Downs
You’ve got to know by now that there’s no such thing as the perfect pleasure product. We’re all too different as a species, and what feels good to me might feel like torture to someone like you. It’s ok to be unique, it just means you have to shop carefully by considering the pros and cons of the items on your list. Here are all the things you need to think about before spending any money on the We-Vibe Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection:
PROS
- Ideal for male and/or female bodies
- Adjustable fit for superior comfort and pleasure
- Wireless remote control included
- We-Connect app controls for long-distance play
- Whisper quiet operation
- Fully rechargeable battery
- Made from skin-safe materials
- Manufacturer’s warranty included
CONS
- May not be suitable for all body types or activities
- Requires an internet connection or mobile data plan for full functionality
- Wireless remote control batteries not included
The Takeaway
There are plenty of good sex toys for couples floating around, but only a few of them have high-quality interactive components that allow you to enjoy one another’s company without actually being in it. I found the We-Vibe Sync and Tango Anniversary Collection very deserving of my time and attention, plus my partner loved how easy it was to control my “emotions” from afar – that sadist. It’s one thing to have a high-end vibrator or two in your stash, but when they work in unison and are crafted for the specific dimensions of the human body, it’s hard to say no to using it all the time. Overall, I’d say this toy is most ideal for couples who know exactly what they like in terms of internal and/or external stimulation, although it’s probably a smart purchase for newbies as well.
