The LELO Insignia Lyla 2 vibrator is a small, portable wireless vibrator. Available in multiple colors, the Lyla vibrator is the one of the Insignia line designed for internal use and insertion. Made of pure silicone (with plastic areas,) both the remote and the vibrator vibrate in this set. The vibrating insertable bullet is rechargeable, while the remote requires 2 AAA batteries.

The packaging for the LELO Insignia Lyla 2 vibrator is beautiful and comprehensive like most LELO packaging. The outer box shows off the design of the vibrator as well as talks about its features, and its inner black, cardboard box is very sturdy and discreet enough to store the vibrator. Inside the box, you’ll find an Insignia pin and the Lyla 2 vibrator stuck nicely in cut-out foam. Underneath this foam tray, there’s the warranty information, the instruction book, the key to unlock the remote cover, the satin storage bag, and the AAA batteries required for use. Also, there’s a sample size of water-based lubricant from LELO.

This review is going to focus on the changes between the first-generation vibrator and this second-generation release.

The new Design Edition of the Lyla 2 is supposed to have a three-times-greater wireless range and 50% more vibration intensity. It’s changed to a default setting for when the signal is lost. It’s not a huge upgrade to the original Lyla, but considering it’s going for the same price, it never hurts to try the second generation, right?

The Lyla 2 does seem to have a better signal. It does still cut out at points – it really depends on how you’re using it. If it’s just bedroom use, the signal tends to be okay. Even for in-house use, as long as you’re in the same room, it works alright as long as you aren’t wearing multiple layers of clothing. There are some slight delays to the signal if you and your partner are far apart – or if you are wearing lots of clothing. Holding the remote and vibe myself, though, I didn’t experience any delays or issues with the signal.

It goes without saying that it works better when used externally versus internally, but compared to the first release, it does work better internally now.

The Lyla 2 also has improved vibration strength. I can’t say that the improved vibration strength is enough of a reason to run out and purchase this upgraded version, though. It’s noticable between the versions, but only slightly. And even with the upgrade, the vibrator is still only about average in vibration strength. It’s possible to orgasm with the vibrations, but like usual, it depends on personal preference. I personally didn’t find them strong enough, but if you’re more sensitive to vibrations, they may work better for you. It’s also good to consider the fact that the bullet vibrator can be inserted, and as most people don’t orgasm purely from internal vibrations, the strength may not be too much of a consideration for you.
