Lovense Diamo

The Lovense Diamo is an app-controlled cock ring. Made of 100% silicone, the shape and texture are smooth and sleek. The design is also versatile, allowing for 4 different ways to wear this powerful cock ring, which makes it a great addition for either solo or partnered play. The motor feels pretty powerful, delivering strong and intense vibrations. This toy is app-controlled, which allows for long-distance play and discreet public play. With the app, you can control the intensity with 4 pre-programmed patterns and create your own patterns. You can also link your music playlist to have the vibrations go along with music patterns. The only downside is that the sturdy silicone is extremely inflexible, making it difficult to get on and uncomfortable for certain penis sizes.

Using the Lovense Diamo

My Personal Experiences with Lovense Diamo

My first impression of the Lovense Diamo was great out of the box. I likes the packaging, the smooth, sleek rechargeable design, and the fact that it was 100% silicone. Unfortunately, my excitement faded as soon as we attempted to use it. The stiffness of the silicone cock ring made it very difficult to put on, especially if you are someone who gets easily aroused with any touch on the penis. Despite following the instructions, it took quite a while (and quite a lot of lube) to get both the penis and testicles in. Once on, it was snug, like a cock ring should be, but still a little uncomfortable. The inflexibility of the ring itself makes it so difficult to put on that it caused pinching, discomfort, and even loss of erection for my partner. Also, the length of the vibrating portion makes it uncomfortable for clitoral stimulation for me as it’s just too large and clunky. It was almost painful, like a large rock between us. Lastly, though it’s a personal preference, though my partner does like perineal stimulation, he doesn’t particularly enjoy vibration on the perineum. Overall it made me feel like we were trying too hard to make something work that just wasn’t for us.

My perspective on the design

Lovense Diamo My perspective on the design

Made of 100% silicone, the shape and texture are smooth and sleek. The design is also versatile, allowing for 4 different ways to wear this powerful cock ring, which makes it a great addition for either solo or partnered play. The motor feels pretty powerful, delivering strong and intense vibrations that can easily target the perineum or the clitoris in partnered cis-het play. This toy is app-controlled, which allows for long-distance play; however, the toy has to be initially turned on via the button on the toy itself. Also, the single-button interface means you have to cycle through the patterns if using the toy manually. With the app, you can control the intensity with 4 pre-programmed patterns, create your own patterns, or link your music playlist.

The Lovense Diamo: User Convenience

Lovense Diamo The Lovense Diamo: User Convenience

The toy itself is lightweight and resembles a bottle opener, making it comfortable to hold, while also a little less conspicuous. It's pretty easy to use once on but very hard to get on There is very little give from the ring section. It’s quite firm silicone with very little stretch. On the downside, only smaller to average guys will be able to fit things all the way through and the penis has to remain flaccid for long enough to get everything in. Though the app is user-friendly, the toy has to be initially turned on via the button on the toy itself. Therefore, if you are planning on wearing the toy out in public for some discreet public play, you will have to make sure the button is already turned on manually or take a quick trip to the bathroom in the middle of dinner.

Grading the Quality of the Lovense Diamo

Lovense Diamo Grading the Quality of the Lovense Diamo

This c-ring is definitely high quality with medical grade silicone and a strong motor. It has good charging capability and charges pretty quickly. There is no charging port, making it completely waterproof and submersible. It's extremely sturdy, though this is the main issue: it becomes problematic when it comes to putting the device on. There is so little flexibility in the actual ring, that there is no give and getting the toy on is extremely difficult and uncomfortable.

Is it worth it?

Lovense Diamo Is it worth it?

Overall, the price of this toy sits at a firm 100. It is expensive, and in my opinion not worth the bang for the buck. The inflexibility of the ring itself makes it so difficult to put on that it causes pinches, discomfort, and even loss of erection for my partner. Also, the length of the vibration portion makes it uncomfortable for clitoral stimulation for me as it's just too large and clunky. Lastly, though its a personal preference, though my partner does like perineal stimulation, he doesn't particularly enjoy vibration on the perineum. If you're someone who is unsure about whether or not you’d like vibration stimulation there, I would definitely start with something less expensive to be sure that you are actually a fan. As for us, we will not be using this toy again.

The Performance of the Lovense Diamo: A Review

Unfortunately, this toy did not live up to the hype for me. On the plus side, it did charge quickly, is made of high quality silicone, is discrete, not too loud, waterproof, and powerful vibrations, but it was not pleasant to use. The inflexibility of the ring itself makes it so difficult to put on that it causes pinches, discomfort, and even loss of erection for my partner. Also, the length of the vibration portion makes it uncomfortable for clitoral stimulation for me as it's just too large and clunky. It was almost painful, like a large rock between us.

The Unboxing Experience: A Review

Lovense Diamo The Unboxing Experience: A Review

Packaging was great. Smooth, sleek, clean, sexy packaging. The box comes with instructions on how to charge with a good diagram on the 4 different ways that you can use the toy and instructions for how to put the toy on, though it might be helpful if there was a tip to use sm lubricant to help get the ring on more comfortably. It also comes with a small fabric bag to store and use for travel, which I always appreciate.

Lovense Diamo: A Dive into the Materials and Care

Lovense Diamo Lovense Diamo: A Dive into the Materials and Care

This c-ring is made of high-quality medical-grade silicone in its entirety, so it is completely body-safe and non-porous. It's also waterproof and fully submersible, which I think is always great when it comes to sex toys. This makes the cock ring a lot easier to clean and also gives the option of bath or swimming pool play. It comes with a small fabric bag to store and use for travel. Overall, the toy appeared to be great quality, though the stiffness of the silicone made it ultimately difficult and uncomfortable to use.

Special feature

Lovense Diamo Special feature

Compared to some other c-rings, the Lovense Diamo differs in the stiffness of the silicone, rechargeability, and the size of the portion where the motor lies. The ring was too stiff and inflexible for our taste, making it uncomfortable. Also the large motor portion allowed for string vibrations, but made it uncomfortable for partnered play as it felt like something was just in the way. Although the length of this portion is helpful in reaching the perineum, if that is something you like. This is also a c-ring made to go around for the penis and testicles in the same ring, which distinguishes it from some other styles.

Lovense Diamo vs. MysteryVibe Tenuto 2

First up, the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 brings to the table a more favorable overall score of 4.5/5.0 and a matching Bedbible rating. When it comes to design, the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 scored a high 95/100 points winning over Diamo’s 70/100. The Diamo’s design allows you to choose between perineum or clitoral stimulation, whereas the Tenuto 2 offers both stimulation at once, making it a better choice for a couple’s sex. Both cock rings are app-controlled and offer long-distance play. The ease of use is also significantly better at 85/100. Tenuto 2’s crown jewel is its impressive range of 16 vibration speeds, indicating a more diverse experience. However, the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 is much more expensive than the Diamo, so if you are looking for a toy specifically for ED, or you have a budget the innovative Tenuto 2 might be a better option, and if you want a high-quality vibrating cock ring, but don’t struggle with maintaining erections, the Lovense Diamo is a good and reliable vibrating cock ring.

Lovense Diamo vs. We-Vibe Verge

The Lovense Diamo and the We-Vibe Verge are very similar in terms of function, but the main difference between them is the shape; the Verge is more of a teardrop cock ring with a smaller head, whereas the Diamo is longer and more pronounced. Both can be flipped to stimulate the perineum or the clit/labia, and they feature app control for long-distance play. We-Vibe Verge too surpasses Diamo with an overall score of 4.3/5.0. Priced moderately, it presents a better design at 85/100 and takes the lead with a superior ease of use score of 90/100. Both cock rings are similarly priced and offer similar features, so when choosing between these two, focus on the shape of the head. The Verge is smaller and more pointy, which feels better for more clitoral stimulation, whereas the Diamo’s design works slightly better with perineum pleasure.

Lovense Diamo vs. Fun Factory NŌS

The Fun Factory NŌS stands tall, nearly acing with an overall score of 4.8/5.0. Its design is simple and very user-friendly earning a solid 100/100 in design and 90/100 in ease of use. The Fun Factory NŌS ratings are much higher than Diamo’s in every category, however, the NŌS is not as versatile and accessible as the Diamo, NŌS is meant for clitoral stimulation, whereas the Diamo can be used for both perineum and clitoral stimulation. The power ratings on both cock rings are the same, but the Diamo has more vibration patterns and it can be controlled via an app for more versatile long-distance play and unlimited vibration patterns. Overall, the Fun Factory NŌS is a great beginner-friendly and budget-friendly pick for those who want a simple toy. It’s also much more suitable for heterosexual sex, whereas the Diamo is more advanced and versatile.

Lovense Diamo vs. Tenga SVR

The Tenga SVR is one of the simplest vibrating cock rings in the comparison. It’s extremely easy to use and very comfortable to wear, which is why it earned a hot 4.9/5.0 in Bedbible rating compared to 3.9/5.0 points of Lovense Diamo. Its simple design with a long vibrating head was also rated higher than the Diamo, it earned 95/100, whereas the Diamo scored only 70/100. However, keep in mind that Tenga SVR is meant for clitoral stimulation only, making it a less versatile choice. The Tenga is also similar power-wise, but it has fewer vibration modes, and there is no app connectivity that allows you to create your own patterns like with the Lovense sex toys. So, if you are looking for a simple, yet powerful vibrating cock ring the Tenga SVR is a great choice, but if you want something more advanced, app-controlled, and more versatile, the Diamo might be a better option for you.
