The unique touch of the Lelo Loki Wave makes this prostate massager quite an interesting toy. The Loki Wave is big, strong, and does a great job of stimulating the prostate. However, as we’ll see in this Lelo Loki Wave review, its key attraction point is the “wave” motion.
Lelo Loki Wave is capable of performing a slight movement at its insertable side. Lelo says the motion is finger-like and provides a unique touch to the experience. Since the motion is quite similar to beckoning someone with your finger, Lelo calls it the come hither motion.
While the Wave is a key point here, it’s not the sole champion for this prostate massager. Let’s get to the details and see what’s good and what’s not so good about this sex toy.

Getting To Know The Loki Wave Better – Features And Design
Unboxing The Lelo Loki Wave
Loki Wave follows the classic Lelo scheme in packaging. The box looks rather luxurious and something exquisite. A clear window on the box shows the prostate massager inside, nestled nicely in protective packaging.
The massager is available in blue and black, or as Lelo calls them, Federal Blue and Obsidian Black. I’m partial to the blue for the interesting color scheme, but black looks good too.
Inside the box, you’ll find:
- Lelo Loki Wave prostate massager
- USB charging cable (pin-style)
- A satin storage pouch
- A warranty card (one-year warranty)
- Instruction manual
- A small sachet of water-based lubricant (Lelo personal moisturizer)
It’s quite a standard package. I am sort of partial to premium toys including a storage pouch with the box. When you spend big bucks on a toy, it’s only natural to want a good storage solution.
Shape And Design Of Loki Wave Prostate Massager
The first thing to notice about the Lelo Loki Wave is that there are two arms for this personal massager. This is somewhat rare for mens sex toys. Though it might seem somewhat similar to a rabbit vibrator, the functioning is entirely different.
Loki Wave’s small appendage is designed to massage the perineum (taint or gooch, as some people call it). The larger arm is quite big and girthy. It’s intended as the prostate massager. There are benefits to having two arms.
Stronger and more pleasurable stimulation is the obvious pick. Although, another tangible benefit is that it negates the need for a safe flared base. The presence of two arms dramatically reduces the risk of the toy ending up in the user’s rectum.
The insertable length of the toy is 3.9-inches and at its girthiest, it has roughly 1.5-inch diameter. Though the shape of the toy helps with easy insertion, that girth isn’t something to ignore. Lelo Loki Wave is best suited for intermediate to advanced users for anal play.
Beginners should look elsewhere for their anal toy, perhaps at the Lovense Hush 2 beginner version.
The Lelo Loki Wave is covered pretty much entirely in silicone. This is the soft, body-safe silicone that we’ve come to love and expect from Lelo adult toys. The silicone feels great to the touch and has that wonderful soft and matte feel.
Conventionally, the handles for Loki toys are made from ABS plastic. This is true for the Loki Wave as well, though it gets a thin coat of silicone in this case. The materials are body safe and non-porous, which makes it a hygienic choice.

Motors And Vibrations
There are three motors in this prostate massager. One powerful motor finds place in the insertable arm and delivers strong, rumbly vibrations. I much prefer the deep, rumbly vibrations to the surface-level buzzy vibes, so Loki gets some preference with this.
Another motor finds its way into the perineum arm. This motor too delivers good vibrations. Its presence is more of a symphony to go along with the main motor on the insertable side of the toy. And it does its job very well, moving with the vibes and making the overall vibrations feel balanced.
The third motor, as you can guess, handles the wave motion or the come hither motion of the Loki Wave. It is somewhat noisy, but using the wave motion is well worth that effort!
Lelo Wave Motion Or Come Hither Motion
The key selling point of the Lelo Loki Wave is the come hither motion or the wave motion. When activated, the wave motion moves the insertable side of the prostate massager in a to-and-fro style.
An analogy of this would be moving your finger to ask someone to come close to you. The toy moves much like that finger motion, providing an additional touch of pleasure. It feels good, and perhaps the wave can feel more natural as it mimics the movement of one’s finger.
It’s a pleasurable experience. Although, clearly mechanical but still enjoyable.
Lelo’s wave motion is fixed to a single setup. There is just one motion, distance, and speed that you’ll get from this. While the presence of vibration patterns and intensities works well with the motion, you might sometimes find yourself wanting more from the wave motion.
Overall, though the Wave Motion isn’t perfect, it is quite enjoyable and a good addition to this men’s sex toy.
Controls For The Lelo Loki Wave
There is a five-button control panel for the Lelo Loki Wave. Here’s a quick look at the buttons, what they do, and how to manage this sex toy.
- The button in the center is the power button. Press it to turn the toy on/off.
- Horizontally placed on either side of the power button are the + and – buttons.
- Press the + button to increase the vibration intensity.
- Press the – button to decrease the vibration intensity.
- Vertically placed on either side of the power button are the “up” and “down” buttons represented by symbols.
- Press the up and down buttons to cycle through patterns. There are 10 pattern and intensity options available on the Loki Wave.
- Press the + and – buttons together for 3 seconds to engage or disengage the travel lock. Charging the toy also disengages the travel lock.
As a button gets pressed, a small LED comes on to show that the control panel is active. While not absolutely necessary, the visual confirmation is a nice touch and useful.
Lelo Loki Wave remembers the last stimulation setting where it was switched off. So, rather than starting off from the basic level, you can start right from your favorite or preferred stimulation setting.
When the toy is switched on for the first time, it starts with the base setting of intensity and patterns. The wave function is also active at this time. The patterns, including the wave function, can be changed by using the pattern buttons.
Charging, Waterproofing, And Battery Of Lelo Loki Wave
With so much to do, the Lelo Loki Wave comes with a powerful battery to keep everything moving. It draws power from an 850 mAh Li-ion battery. It takes roughly two hours to fully charge the battery. Once fully charged, the battery provides a playtime of 2 hours.
Lelo recommends charging the toy for at least two hours before first use.
Of course, the playtime varies depending on your use of this toy. Those who prefer to use the higher intensity settings, as well as the wave motion, will find the battery drains a lot faster. In most cases, expect the play time to be lower than the advertised two hours.
Even with the reduced play time, it’s very likely that an average user will be able to use the toy for multiple sessions. The standby time for the battery is 90 days. Even so, you’ll want the battery closer to full, rather than empty. The rumbly vibrations and the come hither motion work best with a battery charge that’s closer to full.
To charge the battery, you’ll have to attach the included charging cable to the base of the toy. This is a pin-style charger and the point is clearly visible on the Loki Wave.
Lelo says that the Loki Wave is completely waterproof. Users can use it underwater, up to a depth of one meter. The shower and bathtub are all good places to use the Loki Wave prostate massager, if you so prefer.
More importantly, cleaning the vibrator becomes a lot easier, since you can use water without worrying about the toy.
Keep in mind, while the adult toy is waterproof and the charging point isolated, it’s still a pin-style charger. Don’t charge the toy if the charging point on the Loki Wave is wet.
Lelo Loki Wave In Use – A Review On What To Expect
Inserting The Toy And Managing Its Controls
Lelo Loki Wave is meant for intermediate and advanced users. Before you start to insert it, be liberal with the application of a lubricant. Then add some more. It’s best to use a water-based lubricant with silicone-coated toys like the Lelo Loki Wave.
Once the toy is inserted, it’s time to hit the controls. At first glance, the controls look easy to access and ergonomic. For many users, this is true. On the other hand, people like me may not find them so intuitive.
The silicone coating on the control panel helps, it would be too slippery with the lubricant otherwise. Yet, keeping the vibrator in place can feel cumbersome, as does reaching for the controls.
It is necessary to use a support to keep the vibrator in place. Since it is so girthy, the sphincter doesn’t fully close around the toy and it can get pushed out with the vibrations or the body’s movements.
This is even more true when you have the Wave motion going. If not held into place, the toy will try to slip out once the wave motion starts. Users can hold it in place with their hands, or get creative and use some support like the mattress to keep the toy in place.
Letting your partner take control of the toy can work as well and make things more romantic.
The moral of the story is, that you cannot use Lelo Loki Wave handsfree. And hitting the controls can be a bit of a problem. A remote control option would have been very helpful for this vibrator. In absence of that, I’m thankful for the silicone coating over the handle.
Vibration And Pattern Quality Of The Lelo Loki Wave
Lelo Loki Wave provides strong, rumbly vibrations. With the large insertable side, the adult toy hits the P-spot and delivers remarkable vibrations and massage. The strong vibrations work wonders here and the p-spot stimulation is exquisite.
I absolutely loved the feel of the vibrations and the stimulation. Though I went high on the vibration intensity, I don’t recommend staying there for long. It’s better to stay on the middle ground, rather than hammering the prostate with strong vibrations and stimulation.
It is here that the come hither motion comes true to its promise. It feels interesting, to say the least and the sensation feels very good.
I thoroughly enjoyed the combo of the wave motion and rumbly vibrations. It’s also possible to use only the wave motion (no vibrations) or just the vibrations (no wave motion). All choices work, but if you’re working with the Loki Wave, the combo might be something you’ll love the most.
Let’s not forget the perineum massager here. The tiny appendage delivers pleasurable vibrations that work very well with the vibes from the insertable arm of the toy. While the perineum massager is only in a supporting role, it does its job remarkably well and the overall effect is exhilarating.
The monotony of the single movement pattern of the wave motion can feel robotic sometimes, especially once the novelty wears off. I can’t help but think that more options for the wave motion would perhaps have made things better.
Overall, this is a very good toy and delivers orgasmic pleasure for a wonderful p-spot massage. The masturbation sessions get to a whole new level of satisfying, and even feeling weak in the knees!
The Noise From This Prostate Massager
There is no denying it; Lelo Loki Wave gets noisy in use, especially when the wave motion is engaged. When used without the wave motion, the toy is a relatively quiet male prostate massager.
It’s strong and there’s definitely a sound, but it’s not very noisy. At least, the noise is nothing you won’t be able to cover up with some background sounds like music or the TV.
However, once the wave motion is engaged, there is a definite increase in noise. It’s something of a high-pitched robotic sound that’s almost as unique as the wave motion in the sex toy!
The sound will travel, though it’s not very disturbing. Someone passing by your door might hear it, but perhaps not think much of it.
For the user, this high-pitched sound can get annoying after a few minutes. It does feel a bit weird, but can be ignored.

Conclusion
The novelty of Lelo Loki Wave is the wave motion or the come hither motion, which is a major selling point for this men’s sex toy. Thankfully, the motion isn’t just a gimmick. As noted in this Lelo Loki Wave review, the come hither motion adds a nice touch of stimulation and excitement to this toy.
Add the toy’s strong and rumbly vibration to the mix, and we’ve got a wonderful recipe for some swashbuckling orgasms!
The price tag is something of a downer, but it might be acceptable for a premium adult toy with strong credentials.
