This is it, people; the interactive male masturbation toy you’ve been hoping and waiting for ever since you got your Fleshlight in the mail all those years ago. Enter the future of pleasure: The Fleshlight Launch, an innocuous plastic sleeve that turns your Fleshlight into your favorite porn star. It is a feat of teledildonics — albeit a slightly finicky feat — that gives your Fleshlight a life of its own. It’s easy enough to use: Charge it up, download the app, connect to bluetooth, shove your Fleshlight in, and sit back for the ride. By pairing the movements of the porn stars on screen with the motions of the Fleshlight Launch , you get to feel as close to what the male porn star is feeling without having to leave your couch. It’s an express trip into pound town by way of a budding technology that takes a classic male masturbation toy and turns it into something entirely new.
The Fleshlight Launch is for people like you and me, who have eagerly awaited a time where solo sex means some semblance of actual sex. While you’re (obviously) not banging any of the beautiful women on screen, the illusion of sex holds up immensely well if you focus on the video that you’re watching and let the Launch do its job. Despite its simple mechanism, this thing delivers a mind-blowingly nuanced performance. When the actor’s getting an HJ on camera, you get one too; when he goes deep, the Fleshlight goes deep; when he’s pounding away, you’d better believe your member will get waxed hard and fast. Pro-tip: Go for the blowjob videos, because we swear it feels almost the same — opt for one of the Fleshlight Mouth models so you can go for the gold. One of the coolest features about this thing is the amount of control you can have over your experience. Let’s say you’ve loved Lisa Ann since before Who's Nailin' Paylin? With the Launch, you can virtually sleep with Lisa Ann with a Lisa Ann Fleshlight model, effectively putting you inside her. (Sort of.) It's crazy stuff.
“Meet the future of masturbation. Or, at least, the future of masturbation for some people. The makers of the popular sex toy Fleshlight and tech company Kiiroo have teamed up to create an automated sex toy for men, solving a problem you may not have been aware some people have. The Fleshlight Launch will masturbate for you. The Launch is being called the first ‘fully automated male masturbator’ and that description gives you a pretty solid framework for how this works. The product debuted over the weekend at SXSW and can be used by inserting any existing Fleshlight into the champagne bucket-like device.” — Thrillist.com

“The Fleshlight Launch is the latest breakthrough in [male sex toy] technology. Allowing all existing Fleshlights to be converted into automated blowjob machines is the single largest innovation made by Fleshlight since Destroya. The Fleshlight Launch lives up all the hype of a space age 2017 [male masturbator], and with a long warranty, you can be sure it will be an endless resource of oral sex action. Fleshlight created the living dream of getting blowjobs while you sleep with Fleshlight Launch and it is very exciting to see what they do next and look forward to potential Launch upgrades or new models. With the addition of Kiiroo and FeelMe technology, this blowjob machine goes down in history as a critical turning point for the [male sex toy] world. For our Fleshlight Launch Review, we award this Fleshlight upgrade an overall score of 10/10.” — PocketP*ssyWorld

“In manual mode, in which the Launch does all of the work for you, it can perform up to 180 automated strokes per minute, which, needless to say, is a lot. You can control the position, length and speed of each stroke using the touch-sensitive sliders on either side of the toy — and yes, they have some serious strength to them. In interactive mode, you have the ability to synchronize the Launch with your partner, or incorporate interactive content like videos, virtual reality (VR) and live webcams.

As for the Pearl, it has nine settings for solo play, and in interactive mode, its vibrations can be controlled remotely using the slider buttons on the left side of the Launch. Your partner can use her hands or mouth on the Pearl, as well as insert it vaginally to stimulate her G-spot. (You can, of course, operate both toys at the same time.)

According to Max, once you’ve gotten the Launch set up in your lap, it looks like a mini-robot has swallowed your penis. But then it’s business as usual; the Fleshlight feels indistinguishable from a real vagina and being able to control your partner’s toy allows for more intimacy than your usual long-distance Facetime.” — Playboy

“The machine itself seems well built. The motions feel good (manual mode is boring) and it is about as loud as a quiet inkjet. The battery seems to last a good while. Pairing with the app was easy. Charging is awkward because it won't stand up and the charge port is on the backside of the device.
The control options are good, but unresponsive. Length and speed aren't physical buttons, you sorta slide your finger to control. It is big, but doesn't feel too awkward while in use. Cleanup is easy (compared to the amazing real touch it wins handily there).
This level of customer support just after release makes me wonder about future support. I recommend that anyone interested in this wait until Kiroo fires their web and support teams or people start hacking the device. There are other toys out there that work right now. As I said, this has potential, but until I see some actual videos it is a waste.” — Reddit
Onyx by Kiiro (the same people behind Launch) is a good alternative, though it’s really more for person-to-person play as opposed to VR fun.
Easily one of the best VR porn sites out there, pending you have an accompanying male masturbation toy to bring along for the ride.
This automated blowjob machine gives you the feeling of being with a real person, but doesn’t have VR compatibility.
This all-in-one male masturbation toy is the whole package: device and goggles with motion sensing technology.

Looking for the best Fleshlight around? You've come to the right place. Whether you're new to sex toys and looking for something to get started with, or are here in search of new sensations, our guide has something that'll fit the bill.
Assuming you haven't landed here accidentally looking for a torch , you'll probably already know the kind of thing we're talking about here. But for the avoidance of doubt, a Fleshlight refers to a penetrative sex toy designed to be used on a penis. It's a brand name, but, like Hoover and Sellotape, one that has come to represent all toys of that ilk. And it's widely considered to be one of the very best sex toys for men .
Sometimes they're anatomical looking, sometimes they're not. Sometimes they resemble a flashlight (in which case you'd better hope the wrong person doesn't happen upon it in a powercut) sometimes they're something absolutely unique. There's no right or wrong in the Fleshlight world – just what feels best. For more explanation, jump down to the ' What kinds of Fleshlights are there? ' section.
Most people don't stop at one. There are plenty of ways to use a Fleshlight , whether it's to improve staying power, pleasure a partner, or just get yourself off, it's really up to you. Just make sure you heed our guidelines on how to clean a Fleshlight (yes, every time). With the majority of the big names in sex toys making their own unique versions (and unique is definitely the key word in Tenga's case) toys are getting better all the time. There's no better time to get involved. But let's consider a few of your options first. Here's our pick of the best Fleshlights (and Fleshlight alternatives) around right now
Our top pick for the best Fleshlight is a top-seller and for good reason. The company has taken its original model and refined every aspect to bring you the Flight: Pilot. You've still got the super-discrete outer, the feel of the inner is softer than before, with a uniquely textured canal that promises oodles of pleasure. Clear material and a non-anatomical opening means this is more the stuff of your fantasies than a replication of anything real – it's suitable for anyone with a penis, whatever their tastes. It's waterproof, and there's plenty of room for experimentation, with a twist base to alter the level of suction as you play.
What do the reviews say?
Reviews on the Lovehoney website are overwhelmingly positive, with an average of 4.4 stars over 500 reviews at time of writing. This Fleshlight scores especially high on Ease of Use and Quality, with customers typically giving this toy a full five stars on those fronts.
Of the complaints levelled at this toy, a few reviewers found it was a faff to clean and dry (a common issue with this style of toy, just due to the shape it needs to be), and that the sleeve attracted hair. Some flagged that the cap rattled a bit, and that the outer lacked grip. Although a few reviewers didn't get on with the internal feel of the toy, there were no complaints that cropped up enough to suggest a general problem rather than just a variety of personal preferences.
To be fair, the Ice Lady and Ice Lady Crystal aren't the only options in Fleshlight's see-through Ice range – you can also pick up the Ice Butt, the Flight Aviator, the Go Torque and Quickshots Vantage and Pulse in transparent finishes – but we've selected the Ice Lady specifically on the basis of its inner orifice, which many users swear by. It's not a small thing at 8.54" insertable length, but there are a ton of different textures inside.
The visual advantage of its see-through material cannot be understated; seeing what's going where might not have the same appeal if you're on your own (or it might, who knows) but with a partner it'll be a treat. Some prefer the slightly different texture of Fleshlight's clear SuperSkin, too, and, well, we'd have to say it looks perhaps a little less explicit than Fleshlight's flesh-coloured options. While you're unlikely to be marching around the house Ice Lady in hand, that might be an advantage in certain circumstances.
On Lovehoney, the Ice Lady Crystal has an average of 4.6 stars out of 5, over 100 reviews at time of writing. It scores especially highly on Orgasm rating, Ease of Use and Quality, for which most reviewers awarded this fleshlight full marks. Any notable complaints? The lid can be difficult to remove, and cleaning (or more specifically, getting it properly dry) can be tricky. Lots of people called out how satisfying the interior feel is, and how effective it is as a toy.
Though it looks something like a futuristic knuckleduster, this five-knuckle shuffler is far kinder to the flesh. The idea is probably rather obvious: you slide your fingers into the holes in its grip, apply a generous amount of lube, and go to town. The great benefit over more traditional Fleshlight products is that there's no outer case, so while there's no suction on offer it's squeezable for a change in pressure as you go - and those finger holes, sitting comfortably at your knuckles, invite easy twisting and turning motions too.
It's relatively short and open ended, so when used by (or on) a partner there's room for a little oral play at the exit, and the textures inside, a mix of ribs and nodules with typical Fleshlight intensity, give plenty of options for variety as you go. There's a custom case to keep it safe if you're travelling, and also in which to store it while it dries – as ever, a little time under the tap is all it really takes, and the open end means nothing nasty should get trapped.
The main complaints about this toy are the lack of suction (in which case you'd be better opting for a traditional, closed Fleshlight), and a few users also found it too soft to create satisfying pressure. There's plenty of love for the innovative drying case though!
OK, not a Fleshlight in its own right, but if you're into Fleshlights then the Launch really needs to be on your radar. It's a battery-powered motorised add-on which takes Fleshlight's Quickshot toys (see below) to the next dimension, automating the stroking action up to 250 times per minute while keeping the stroke length, position and speed entirely in your control via a pair of thumbsticks on the handles.
Sounds a little terrifying, but it's not as if you're strapping yourself into something you can't stop immediately if you're uncomfortable. There's even a phone holder, so you can enjoy your favourite illicit materials while keeping your hands on the controls at all times.
Some more sensitive users find the textured canals of typical Fleshlights a little too much. But not everything has to be lumpy, bumpy, and covered in all kinds of geometric shapes – the Pink Lady and Pink Butt, the Fleshlights that started it all, keep it smooth inside. They're not exactly baggy; most men will find a reasonably tight canal (and, on the Pink Butt, a suitably small opening) gives all parts of the penis plenty to experience on the way in, but the soft material means you won't be fighting to enter, and there's a pressure relief valve on the rear with which to find a balance of suction and slide.
The only real downside, if you can call it that, is the length – we'd wager most would be unable to reach all the way to the end, and if you're likely to hide it away you may wish to opt for one of Fleshlight's more compact models.
Deviating from the standard form factor, Fleshlight's Quickshot is an open-ended device that's much smaller and perfect for travel. You can leave one cap on and use it in the same way as a traditional fleshlight, with varying suction depending on how tight the end cap is applied, but remove both and it becomes much more flexible.
Flip it over to vary the way it feels, remove the outer ring for a looser experience, or really take advantage of the shorter straight-through inner canal when playing with a partner. Or, if you're really after something different, pop one into the Quickshot Launch and enjoy a little automated fun.
If you're looking for something truly anatomical, Fleshlight has the answer. The company has licensed and moulded realistic replicas of many porn stars, both men and women, and applied them to their traditional structure. Each of these, in addition to that true-to-life outer, carries a one of a vast array of unique inner canals for a different experience. Fleshlight also sells just the inners on their own, if you're interested in creating a collection. If a fleshlight is your route to indulging a fantasy, there's a host of names on offer, so whether it's Riley Reid and Alexis Texas or Kevin Warhol and Brent Corrigan, you'll find something – or someone – to suit.
It may not have realistically-moulded lips on the entrance, but it really doesn't need them: the Fleshlight Turbo Thrust is touted as the ultimate in blow job simulations. With that in mind, Fleshlight has designed its orifice with several distinct sections, for three potential points of insertion: soft lips, a caressing tongue, a throat ridge, and then a varied ribbed canal to follow. This is a toy that will keep its recipient guessing - though with a clear outer showing off the translucent blue ice inner, you won't have to wonder which part you've reached.
Fleshlight is a brand name, but has come to represent male masturbation aids in general. Here's our pick of the best fleshlights with a small 'f'.
Lovehoney makes a wide range of excellent sex toys, including the pioneering Blowmotion range, aimed at men. Our pick of the bunch is the Real Feel Male Masturbator, which might look like a Fleshlight on the outside, but has a number of tricks in that subtle, plain casing. The internal canal has a range of interesting textures, but the real star of the show is the vibrations, which are adjustable in intensity, and pack a serious punch when dialled up. It's not the easiest to clean, and the inner doesn't look like it'll withstand too much battering. But otherwise, this toy really hits the spot. Head to our full Real Feel Rechargeable Vibrating Male Masturbator review to find out more.
