Review summary:
I’ve had an amazing time testing the new 3rd version of the Lelo F1S male vibrator. It might not look like a large upgrade from the V2 but it blew me away with incredible orgasms thanks to the new AI Mode and larger size.
Yes, that’s right – You’re now able to get it in an XL version which makes it much more usable for guys with an average size penis or bigger.
It feels nothing like using a pocket pussy but much more like I would imagine using a vibrator as a woman would feel.
Overall, an impressive sex toy for you if you want to take your masturbation to the next level. It gives you orgasms that are hard to imagine if you’ve only used your hands.
What You get:
I recommend the Lelo F1S V3 if you’re after the best male vibrator right now in 2024.
I’ve previously tested the older versions of the Lelo F1S male vibrators and there have been signs of greatness.
But my biggest complaint has always been the size, which was never big enough.
This has finally been addressed with the introduction of a new XL version.
Another huge upgrade is the AI mode in the app which uses sensors in the device to adjust the vibration and suction power/speed according to how your penis reacts to the stimulation.
All very exciting, but let’s see how it performs and if it can live up to the hype that I personally have for it.
The LELO F1S V3 comes with the standard LELO accessories in the box:
Get started:
Let me get straight to the point – It feels incredible to use and the new AI mode in the app is truly amazing and that comes from a guy who hates when sex toys require an app.
I’m especially a fan of the suction motor which feels like your penis gets pulled in and out in a short and fast motion.
I still don’t know how they manage to get that much suction and vibration power into a relatively small device that doesn’t require an external power supply.
Yep, I got incredible orgasms each time I used it and not a single one of them was disappointing. But they take much longer to achieve compared to when I use a stroker where I manually do the “work”.
It feels like an entirely different experience. You can compare it to when somebody rides you vs. you riding somebody – Both are amazing in their own way.
Pro tip – You don’t need to use it with the app, but you’re very limited in terms of settings and the AI mode is purely an app function. There are 3 buttons underneath the device which allow you to adjust the vibration modes and speed settings.
I’ve had time to focus on how to improve the experience of using the F1S in the past and my work has continued with the new V3.
These are my favorite tips to increase your pleasure:
It’s not a foil peel at all, but it looks like it and I even tried to remove it before realizing it’s a tiny silicone seam between the device and the window.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who has tried to do that which is why I’m making a big deal about it.
You’re going to ruin the waterproofness of it which would make it hard to clean and ruin shower and bath play.
I did like the V2, don’t get me wrong but the V3 is such a big improvement both in terms of the stimulation and the size options.
One thing that I noted during my comparison of the two was the internal silicone sleeve design. The Lelo F1S V2 sleeve has a groove running from the base of the sleeve to the front of the device. I’m not 100% sure why they designed it like that but that groove is gone and replaced with more waves in the silicone.
The sleeve is a lot wider in the new V3 version and I found it to be much more comfortable due to the increased size.
The XL version is roughly ½ an inch longer than the standard version which has been a welcomed upgrade.
And the new AI mode in the app is freaking amazing – It uses a special feedback sensor so it can adjust the suction and vibration power and speed in real-time.
AI seems to be creeping into our lives more and more, but if it’s an improvement like this then I’m all for it!
I’ve never been disappointed with any of the previous versions of the F1S but they have been hard to use due to their smaller size.
This all changed with the F1S V3 XL which is the first time that I really got that “WOW” feeling.
I love the vibrations and the subtle fast pace suction which feels nothing like anything I’ve tested before.
Sure, it’s not a perfect product and the price is still high at $250 but I can wholeheartedly recommend it to you if you’re in the market for a quality male masturbator.
This is for you if:
It’s NOT for you if:

Hi
I was part of the first testing of the developer version and I was not able to get an orgasm while using it back then.
My main problem at the time was the size, I’m still on the fence about the V3 but it looks like it’s wide enough now but not long enough.
What’s your thoughts on the length?
Hi
The main size increase has been the width of the V3. It’s about a ½ inch longer but still not enough for my entire penis to be in it. But that’s not that important, the main features are the special vibration and suction which focus on the first half of you penis.
I don’t mind that I can’t put my entire penis in it because it would not make the experience any different.
Hope this clears things up.
Best regards,
What is your girth? I’ve read conflicting info on the diameter of the two devices when it comes to size of opening.
Hi Mitch
Sorry about the late reply, my erect girth is 5.2 inches (13.2cm).
Best regards,
