We’ll share the rest of our team’s top picks, along with which products didn’t make our list — and why.

I love any sex toy that can be part of my kinky life.
The We-Vibe Moxie+, which I wrote an in-depth review about, is one of the few panty vibrators that leaves me feeling comfortable enough to wear it in public, let my partner control the vibrations, and remain 100% confident that no one will know what is going on…unless and until I lose control.
The vibrations are so strong even though the slip-on vibrator itself is super quiet, with a dB range between 44.9 to 52.4, depending on the setting — well below the sound level of a normal conversation.
I tend to only prefer a single setting or pick the highest one I can find, but as I cycled through the settings and vibration modes on the remote and the app, I couldn’t find anything that didn’t feel good!
Fellow tester, Zoë Tanner, who tried the original We-Vibe Moxie, agreed.
“This is SO GREAT! It gets strong and the vibrations are nice and smooth! The Moxie is my favorite, and the vibrations feel next-level!”
When a review for a remote control panty vibrator inspires this many exclamation points from testers — myself included — you know it’s a good one.
The Moxie and Moxie+ give you plenty of options to explore through both a wireless remote and a mobile app.
The remote works from about 30 feet away (~20 if your legs are crossed or there is interference from furniture or walls), and it’s super easy to use once you get the hang of the buttons.
From my experience, you’ll need to hold the button down longer than you think you need to turn it on. But after that, it’s smooth sailing.
Unlike other panty vibrators I tried, the remote is small and discreet, and no one will notice if you do decide to take it out in public.
The We-Vibe app, while notorious for not being perfect, was actually fairly simple to use and in fact, offers improved connectivity with the Moxie+.
You can pair your panty vibe with someone else who has the app — and of course, you have complete control over who can access your Moxie+.
If you’re in a long-distance relationship, this clit vibrator takes your phone sex up a notch.
After pairing the Bluetooth panty vibrator to your smartphone, you can choose to “Connect Lover” through the We-Connect App so your partner can control your Moxie+, but the vibrator has to remain within Bluetooth range of your paired smartphone to work.
As long as that’s situated, you’re good to go and your partner can connect and control your vibe from anywhere.
Let’s talk about the settings because my favorite thing about the Moxie+ was how pleasantly throbbing, humming, and deep the vibrations felt.
Each vibration mode has its own customizable intensity levels, so you can find the one that gives you the most pleasure, whether you’re letting your partner tease you in public or you’re simply looking for mind-blowing orgasms on your own.
This product does not come with panties, however, the vibrator’s magnetic clip easily transforms any pair of underwear into a pleasure party.
This means that you can use whatever lingerie fits you best and makes you feel sexy. The bonus is that you don’t need to go to the ends of the earth to find plus size vibrating panties, if that’s what you need.
(After trying several panty vibes with undies that just didn’t fit right, myself, I discovered that I’d much rather wear my own with a good slip-proof magnet or clip that holds the vibrator in place.)
Like most vibrating panties, the Moxie+ is easy to slip into just about any pair of underwear you choose:
Given the width of the Moxie+ and the size of its magnet, the small vibrator might not attach easily to G-string underwear, but it will fit those that have at least a narrow crotch (1″ wide or so).
Out of all of the remote-control vibrating panties I tried, the Moxie+ had the best magnet with the strongest hold and didn’t move around in my underwear while I was playing with it.
I could sit, stand, and walk around with no problem.
Even better — as I moved, the sensations kept up with me so I never felt like I had to re-adjust its placement.
Zoë had a similar experience with the original Moxie.
“The really secure and unique clasp system can be used with all kinds of underwear,” she explained.
The Moxie’s flat, oval shape makes it perfect for attaching through underwear or swimsuit bottoms and it’s also convenient and easy to adjust if you need to.
Yes, I said swimsuit.
The Moxie+ is fully submersible so you can wear it in the pool or hot tub to enjoy a little underwater clitoral stimulation — and the IPX7 waterproof design can even withstand hot tub jets.
USB rechargeable, which takes about 90 minutes, you’ll be able to play with this wearable vibrator for up to 2 hours on a full charge — which means you don’t have to rush to find the best spots to tease and play.
Made from body-safe silicone with a sleek and flat design that fits in the palm of your hand, this vibrating panty teaser makes for a perfect travel companion in your carry-on bag or purse — wherever you go.
Budget Pick: Satisfyer Little Secret Panty
- Softer Vibrations Compared To Moxie
- Very Quiet For Public Play, Waterproof
- Comfortable, Secure Placement
- Syncs To Music Or Erotica
- Remote Control & App, 1 Hour Playtime
- Magnetic Charger Connects Loosely
- Charging Takes 3+ Hours
- Music Syncing Is Spotty
- No Panties Included
I was unsure what to expect from the Satisfyer Little Secret Panty, but I didn’t have high hopes for it sitting against my clit or remaining secure in my panties.
To my surprise, it managed both with no problems.
The vibrations weren’t quite as strong as our top pick the We-Vibe Moxie+ but they were stimulating nonetheless.
In my experience, the sensations from the Secret Panty felt more intense whenever I sat down.
My husband, who loves to engage in public play, found the remote control extremely discreet, and the sound level from the underwear massager is virtually silent, ranging from 43.2 to 47.0 dB (well within the best range for quiet vibrators).
Additionally, he was able to push the buttons with the remote in his pocket without it looking like he was doing something in his pocket.
(We can have a discussion on the size of pockets in men’s versus women’s clothing another day.)
The Satisfyer app was a pleasant surprise, although it wasn’t perfect — it connected (and stayed that way) well enough, but syncing to music was disappointing at times and I’ll elaborate more on that below.
It’s worth noting that the app’s overall adjustability is off the charts for a slip vibrator at this price point — it lets you use the touch screen on your phone to create custom vibrations and save them for later but it also includes pre-programmed settings, as well.
Although the remote operates from a distance of 30’ (reliably) and up to 50’ depending on walls or other outside interference, the Satisfyer Connect App allows partner control from anywhere beyond that range — although device pairing and login to the app are required.
I generally never like to use apps, even while wearing vibrating panties, but in my experience (and that of our other testers), it paired easily and stayed connected during use.
Although it’s great for partnered play and long-distance control, you can even listen to erotic stories with vibrations timed for the best parts when using the app by yourself.
The Satisfyer app ALSO lets you connect your playlist and use music to inspire the vibrations if you prefer.
I connected the Bluetooth panty vibrator through Spotify but found this left something to be desired (literally) because the vibrations only came through on music that had a driving, thumping beat.
It just didn’t work well on anything slower or softer, which was disappointing — especially if you like romantic or erotic slow jams, this might not function as well as you’d expect.
The Satisfyer is USB rechargeable with a magnetic connector.
The upside is that this makes the vibrator fully submersible in water — it is completely waterproof.
The downside is that you have to set your toy down and connect the magnet charger just so in order to get it to charge and it can take up to 3 hours to do so (and 3.5 in “exceptional cases,” according to Satisfyer).
This makes us wonder whether the charging time relates to a loose connection between the magnetic charger and the vibrator, or the way it conducts the charge.
Even with the imperfections and the little bit it lacks, this is a great option for anyone seeking panty pleasure on a budget — and it’s a lot of fun to use.
How We Made Our Picks And Features We Considered
When researching discreet yet effective panty vibrators capable of getting a person off — even in public — 87 products were closely examined by our team, 38 made our final list for possible consideration, and only eight met our strictest criteria for personal testing.
The most important criteria to look for in a vibrating panty include:
- 100% body-safe materials
- Quality construction
- Excellent wireless connectivity
- Secure fastening
- Versatile fit
- Sound level
- Vibration range
- Optimal performance
- Intuitive design
- Reliable power supply
- Good battery life
- Ease of cleaning
- Water resistance
When choosing the best panty vibrators, we weighed and tested:
- How they held up with repeat use
- Reliability of wireless connection at varied distances
- How they stayed in place while walking or dancing
- Adjustability to various anatomies and underwear
- How quietly they performed at home and in public
- All available intensities, patterns, and speeds
- During solo and partnered play
- Ease of use
- Charging time and connection
- Use time on all settings
- Cleaning through various methods
- Continued performance in water (including subsequent charging)
Vibrating Panties That Didn’t Make Our List
There are so many panty vibrators out there (including eggs and bullets that can be worn inside underwear)
We initially explored 87 unique panty vibrators from 31 sex toy manufacturers that included:
- LELO
- Satisfyer
- Lovense (including Ferri and Lush 3)
- Evolved
- OhMiBod (LoveLife Toys)
- Screaming O
- X-Gen (Secrets, Love Distance)
- We-Vibe
- Romp
- XR Brands
- And many others…
Although only a very select few made our final list for personal testing, we’ll quickly share which products didn’t make the cut — and why.
In addition to our top recommendations, our team spent more than 80 hours collectively testing:
- OhMiBod Club Vibe 2.Oh: Despite the fact that this remote control panty vibe (supposedly) vibrates to music, most average women may not be able to wear the panties it comes with — and certainly not plus-size people.
- LELO LYLA 2: This worked better as an insertable egg vibrator, but as a clitoral panty vibe, it was seriously lacking and the remote is not discreet for public play in the slightest.
- Eve’s Rechargeable Vibrating Panty: The vibrator itself uses a magnetic charging cable — which ONLY stayed in place when the device was very carefully laid on a flat surface — and although this panty massager was easy to use and fairly quiet, the remote control is larger than most and could easily draw attention if used in public.
- Evolved Hidden Pleasure Panty Vibe: The included panties didn’t hold the vibrator against our testers’ bodies securely enough to avoid slipping and the vibrations are not especially strong.
- CalExotics Lock-N-Play Panty Teaser: The magnetic wings, although smart for a clip-on vibrator, don’t always stay secure and they don’t fit wider panty crotches — which could be an issue for many. It’s also not very quiet and cannot be used with an app, which limits its flexibility.
- Screaming O Ergonomic Vibrating Panty Set: This underwear massager was not as quiet as others we tested and there is also no magnet or clip to keep the vibrator securely in place while it’s being worn inside the included panties.
Vibrating panties don’t fit uniformly — whether due to the construction (or sizing) of the underwear or because of the design of the vibrator itself.
Additionally, clitoral sensitivity plays an important role in the way a vibrator’s sensations are perceived — or enjoyed.
Everybody is different — so it’s best to read through real reviews (like ours) to get a sense of why a product didn’t work for someone and then apply that information to your own needs and preferences.
What To Know About Vibrating Panties
Panty vibrators, also known as vibrating underwear (or vibrating knickers if you’re in the UK), are an innovative type of sex toy that allows you to wear a vibrator discreetly under your clothing — with those around you being none the wiser.
Although the name might seem pretty straightforward, the truth is that the fabric itself doesn’t vibrate — these aren’t “electric panties” by any stretch of the imagination.
Instead, a small yet powerful vibrator is slipped into the panty crotch and (generally) held in place with a magnet or clip.

Who Should Use Vibrating Panties?
A panty vibrator is perfect for anyone who:
- Seeks a bit of naughty fun while out and about in public
- Desires a new way to spice things up in the bedroom
- Wants a partner to control their pleasure remotely
- Needs a wireless vibrator compatible with long-distance partner play
- Has mobility issues and wants a vibe that offers easy hands-free operation
In general, you should select your normal underwear size when purchasing a pair of vibrating panties, however, they are not typically available in comparable sizing increments.
When in doubt about the way a vibrating panty may fit you, it may be best to opt for a standalone clitoral vibrator that is designed for use with the panties and lingerie you already own.

Pros And Cons Of Vibrating Panties
When it comes to pleasure on-the-go, a panty vibe can be a vulva’s best friend.
This type of vibrator is controlled wirelessly through a remote or app for hands-free orgasms, and if it operates silently — as our top recommendations do — it’s possible to enjoy discreet sex play in public, alone or with a partner, anytime you’re in the mood.
Although vibrating panties can be a wonderful addition to your sex life — whether you use them alone or with a partner — like all things, there are pros and cons to consider before you buy a pair.
Panty Vibrator Pros:
- They’re versatile enough to be used just about anywhere
- They offer a way to enjoy hands-free yet direct stimulation, which is especially great for people with hand mobility issues
- Many offer a variety of vibration patterns and speeds, sometimes with the ability to create customized patterns
- They can be worn discreetly for public play
- They make it possible for one partner to control the pleasure of the other remotely from a distance
- Internet app-enabled models provide a way for long-distance couples to connect sexually, even when they are miles (or countries) apart
- They tend to be quiet, although not always
Panty Vibrator Cons:
- There can be sizing issues relating to the proper fit of one-size-fits-all integrated panties
- Likewise, fit and placement can be problematic with some models when pairing them with underwear that you already own
- Many panty vibrators are operated through an app, which can be buggy when you least expect it
- Although they can be worn discreetly, some vibrating panties do not operate quietly — so they may not always be ideal for use in plain sight of others
- Additionally, ambient noise can have an effect on how easily the vibrator is heard, even if it is very quiet
All of these things are important considerations you should weigh when you’re shopping for a pair of vibrating panties.
Again, it all comes down to how you intend to use them — particularly if you plan to do so in public.
Are Vibrating Panties Safe?
Yes, vibrating panties are perfectly safe provided they’re used according to the instructions and are made from body-safe materials.
- The safest materials for panty vibrators include medical-grade or body-safe silicone and ABS plastic, but you’ll want to avoid those crafted from unsafe materials like TPR (“fake silicone”), rubber, jelly rubber, and PVC.
- Although some refer to them as electric panties, the underwear material of a panty vibe does not conduct any sort of electrical current — the vibrator is simply clipped to the fabric and held in place during use.
- Vibrating panties will not cause permanent nerve damage to your vulva or clitoris, even during extended wear.
- If you are not currently facing pregnancy complications and have no history of them, using a panty vibrator during pregnancy is quite safe — but consult with your doctor if you’re at all unsure.
- Many panty vibrators are crafted from silicone and should only be used with water-based lube because silicone lube will degrade their material.
- Vibrating panties are easy to clean: the vibrator should be washed by hand separately and in most cases, the underwear it’s worn with can be tossed in the washing machine.
