Great toy, but not for me
I would say that the High Intensity Bullet is a great toy for someone who is concerned about neighbors or roommates discovering the toy; it is small, nondescript, and quiet. However, because it has high-frequency vibrations, it might not be effective for someone who prefers deeper sensations.Published: October 13, 2011
Pros:
Quiet, discreet, small, strong, easy to use
Cons:
Buzzy vibrations, loud third setting
The High Intensity Bullet is the first sex toy I've ever used (although not the first thing I used as a sex toy . . .) and I think it's a great for a first-time experience. It's simple to use - you just hold down the button to cycle through the different speeds and to turn it off. It's plastic, meaning it's very easy to clean. It's also small, making it easy to explore with.
For me, what is more important is how discreet the bullet is. This toy is really, really small - although I saw the pictures and the video reviews, I was surprised at how nondescript the bullet appeared to be: It's about the length of my index finger and the width of my thumb. It has no words or lettering on it. It does not look like a sex toy and blends in perfectly with pens, highlighters, markers, and other miscellaneous items one might have in their drawer or bag.
There is one caveat, though, and it relates to the noise level of the toy. The first two settings get two bees, while the highest setting gets three. I put the toy on my bed, put the covers over it, then stood outside my door, listened, and was able to hear it faintly. On the one hand, I don't think anyone passing by would notice it; they would have to be deliberately trying to hear it in order to detect it. On the other hand, there was a lot of ambient noise, so the sound might be more noticeable in quieter places.
Perhaps the most important thing about this toy is whether or not it has brought me to orgasm: It has not. It has a pleasant sensation to it, but I cannot describe it as arousing. However, I suspect that this has more to do with the type of vibrations rather than the power of the toy. This type of toy has "buzzy" vibrations, very similar to what cellphones and electric toothbrushes have. All of my past experience has been with lower-frequency vibrations (think: body massagers), and so I suppose that I've developed a preference for them.

Follow-up commentary
18 days after original review
Unfortunately, I still haven't orgasmed with this toy; but I don't think my opinion of it has gotten any worse. Since the last review, I've gotten the Iconic Bullet, which is very similar to this one; and the Ultimate Massager, which I prefer significantly. Because the UM is much more effective than this toy is, I don't think I'll be using this one anymore, at least not by itself.
One thing to note - the toy doesn't always start up when I immediately turn it on. In order to get it to work, I have to take the cap off and screw it back on. I first noticed it after it fell onto the floor while turned on. It still works, but I'm concerned that this toy might not be able to take a lot of abuse (which is unfortunate for someone clumsy like me!)
Overall, I would say it's a good first toy; but I won't miss it when it dies.

Pink/Green one?
-
ZakkieWill The pink and green High Intensity Bullet ever come back in stock or are they just selling that fast? -
I'm not sure if this is the case but it might be. A while back, they were giving away the pink and green one of those for free (if you did so-and-so which I can't remember what). I know because I got one! Lol. I love it. It's velvety-feeling and it really is high intensity (in my opinion). I did my first review ever on it and I use it to make up for my Zook's weak clitoral attachment. I hope it comes back in stock so you can get it!
The best thing with ANY questions like this is to send in a support ticket. You'll be sure to get an answer there. -
ZakkieI sent one in two days ago and still awaiting a reply of some sort. D: I really want it lol You make it sould so wonderfully pleasing <3

Texture of the high intensity bullet
-
I'm so confused about the texture of this bullet. The pink looks matte and the video review states that it is velvety. All the other colors look glossy and smooth. Can anybody tell me if there really is a difference?

Can anybody tell me if there really is a difference?I just got a free pink one in the mail today. The pink does have the velvety texture. It looks like the white may have the velvety texture as well, however, the black, silver, and fuchsia look like they are probably shiny, smooth. While you can feel the difference in your hands, I don't think you would feel the difference between the textures at all when you were using it down there.

Does it work good for g-spot stimulation?
-
Quote: Does it work good for g-spot stimulation?It's not really meant for internal use. You can read through some of the reviews and they'll tell you the best uses for each toy. It's great for clitoral, though.

Quote: Does it work good for g-spot stimulation?No, it's too small to really be useful for insertion. It was much better for external and clitoral.

Texture?
-
Does anybody know if the pink colored vibrator has a different texture than the other colored ones? It looks less shiny, so I wondered if it had a different feel to it also. I'm not a big fan of the plasticey feel of some vibrators so I'm wavering on getting this one.
-
It has a velvety feel to it, not a plastic feel.

Oh, and you know if you "like" EF on Facebook you can get this for free right? It ends tomorrow!

Help! Mine broke :-(
-
Hey guys! I've been searching for what I'd consider to be the perfect, quiet bullet. I tried the high intensity bullet but it broke. The hollow points one was amazing when it worked! It's a little bit loud too.I have the blue TCB, it's ok but I was hoping for stronger vibes? Can anyone recommend a good one that's smooth, quiet, discreet, and has proven to last at least 6 months, instead of 6 days :-( Please help!
-
I'd contact Eden customer service about getting a replacement. I don't think any vibe should break in less than a week, so you may have gotten a defective one.

Best Vibrator
-
In your opinion, which of the smaller clitoral vibrator is your favorite?
-
Quote: In your opinion, which of the smaller clitoral vibrator is your favorite?This is the first clitoral vibrator of this size that I have ever used. Most of mine are larger ones that I use for both clitoral and vaginal play.
But I honestly am very impressed with it mostly because it has 3 different speeds and I've noticed that most vibrators of this size only have one speed.
Hope that helps :) -
try the '7 wonders bullet'
It's tiny, purple and has 7 functions. Normally I don't like the different functions because they're too... slow? But the & wonders bullet is really intense and has so many vibrating patterns! Or maybe try the pink candy bullet, it also has 7 functions and no cord/controller!

Thank you for viewing High intensity bullet – sex toy review page!



Thanks for the review. High intensity, eh? Going to have to try this.
Thanks for taking the time to share this review with us
Thanks for the review.
Bignuf - it's definitely high intensity! I could feel it strongly through my pants. (:
i might have to give this a try!
Great job! And once again, welcome
I voted somewhat useful because you never mentioned what material it was made of or how to clean it and what type of batteries it needs.
I'd recommend using the extended review format in the future to help folks learn more about the products.
With that said, I do like your writing style.
High intensity is exciting to hear for someone like me! Thanks for your review!
Great review
Thank you for sharing
Great review
