17 best remote control vibrators to reconnect with your partner or self
The best remote control vibrators will add some oomph into your wellness routine, and the best part? Having a partner to enjoy them isn't a requirement. We can all agree that you don’t always need a S/O in the bedroom to achieve the level of satisfaction you’re looking for. To put it bluntly, sex with someone else isn’t the be-all and end-all – and we’re die-hard advocates of going solo with sex toys. Think: bullet vibrators, rabbit vibrators, clit vibrators, wand vibrators (just vibrators in general,TBF) and, today, remote control vibrators.
You can get them from all your fave sex toy shops online, and there will be one out there for you, be it for a penis-haver or vulva-owner or, if you do fancy a bit of extra spice in your relationship, we have included a whole bunch for couples, too. So, let's skip the chit-chat and get into it.

What are the best remote control vibrators?
Naturally, the answer to this question depends on what sort of stimulation you're looking for and, also, whether you're looking for a device for solo or partnered play. For instance, for long distance couples seeking out a device/devices that will satisfy both parties from afar, we'd recommend Lovense's Nora device with its capacity to connect to a second device of your choosing (including both female and male genetalia-orientated devices).
For a solo wellness session, however, you're likely looking for a device that uses app/remote controlled connectivity to grant you greater control over your stimulation. Our pick for such a purpose? It's got to be the Moxie panty vibe. Think: whisper quiet stimulation for tantalising arousal even in public, plus your choice of control via remote or app and it's waterproof.

When it comes to reviews, We-Vibe’s Melt toy takes the cake.

A love egg vibrator with a travel lock (meaning it's ideal for buyers looking to get it going in public), this Mantric sex toy isn't app-controlled, but the remote works from up to 4 metres away, and the handy ring pulley prevents any items from becoming lost or stuck during your session.

Best for? Allowing your partner to control the vibrations and the egg's movement with the grab loop.

Best for? Both app controlled and in-app reading/game related stimulation.
Pros: You can use the optional ‘FappyBunny’ app to let your performance in its game-type task dictate how quickly you climax. It certainly won't be for everyone but, equally, there's no doubting it's a unique sex toy selling point. Your bluetooth connection will also be hidden from other devices in your vicinity for complete discretion.
Cons: You will need wi-fi and/or cellular data, as opposed to bluetooth functionality alone.
Customers are saying: Enjoyable to use and works for couples separated by a great distance (as much as 6000 miles, one user remarked). It could be quieter, however.
GLAMOUR star rating: 4/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
With a touch sense control panel on the We-Connect app that allows you or your partner to take control of your pleasure, adjusting itself per your taps/swipes etc. on the touchscreen, the We Vibe Chorus is as close to IRL fingering or oral sex with your partner as you can get.

How did we test and review the best remote control vibrators?
By using customer reviews from users combined with data on what you've been searching for as buyers, as well as checking through and through to see which products feature durable versus less long-lasting materials, we pulled together what we think is a selection of the best remote control vibrators and sex toys for remote play on sale for couples and solo use.
We've rifled through the good, bad and ugly reviews, so you don't have to, not to mention we – as a team of fashion, interiors, beauty and wellness experts – happen to know a thing or two about which brands have earned their respective places as the best in the business in the world of sex toys. Plus, with a team of 30+ here at GLAMOUR HQ, of course, some of us have trialled a sex toy or too, so we have some accumulative know-how on materials, and chargers etc., too.
We aim to find you products which will last and bring you joy (if you know what we mean), and should anything about a product signal that that's not the case, you'll be the first to know – happy browsing!
How does the GLAMOUR star rating system work?
1/5 - Not one you're likely to see in our round-ups, as we try to pull together lists of only top-tier products. However, a 1/5 rating would mean the sex toy fails on cost, durability, performance and how users reviewed it.
2/5 - Again, not likely to be popped into our content; a 2/5 would mean the remote control vibe is disappointing across most areas, perhaps being ok in one field, e.g. cost.
3/5 - A 3/5 would mean the product is ok generally, perhaps a fine choice if you're on a more modest budget, but leaves room for improvement. For example, this could be an affordable wand vibe, but only works with its remote control up to two metres away, so better for solo use.
4/5 - A 4/5 would mean the sex toy is basically great, with problems only little and easy to ignore. For instance, a vibe that ticks all the metaphorical boxes, but costs £150+.
5/5 - A 5/5 rating means the product, website and brand are all exceptional. We will never give a product a five-star rating if it has any faults that we're aware of, so look out for these, they're rather rare!
