Plenty of us out there love rabbit vibrators, AKA toys that come with both an internal and external arm in order to give us those sought-after blended orgasms.

This toy from We-Vibe takes the rabbit vibe to the next level. Fully app-controlled and with 10 vibration modes, it'll go a long way in making those lonely, frustrating nights a little more bearable.

We have spoken about the Lovense Lush 3 Love Egg Vibrator *at length* at Cosmo HQ. Touted as the most powerful bluetooth-operated sex toy in the world, this lil egg vibrator is designed to stimulate your G-spot and clitoris with extra quiet vibrations.

When you connect to a corresponding app, it can be controlled remotely, allowing you to explore an endless array of patterns. But the joys of the app certainly do NOT end there: you can also send voice notes, chat or video chat using the partner function.

Oh, and then there's the fact that you get up to five hours play off of one charge...

Okay, we admit, the world of sex machines can feel a little bit intimidating. These pieces of tech often have powerful thrusting mechanisms *buuuuut* the drawback is that they can be a lil bit unwieldy.

The Cowgirl Cone Sex Machine, however, is portable (v unusual for a sex machine) and made from high-quality silicone. It boasts a whole host of powerful vibrations and comes with two attachments: one dildo attachment for G-spot and internal stimulation and one textured saddle attachment for dreamy grinding.

The best bit? It's also app-controlled so that your partner can control your pleasure from a distance...

Cock rings are seriously underrated — ICYMI: they can make erections better and even last longer. With some intense vibrations, this cock ring from We-Vibe helps men and people with penises build up a really strong orgasm and feels amazing in IRL partnered sex as it vibrates against the clit.

Thanks to the We-Connect app, it's also controllable remotely, no matter where you and your partner are. This app offers a whole range of tailored sensations and vibration patterns, making it easy to tease and pleasure a partner from a distance.

It's definitely one of the best vibrating cock rings we've come across, and a great tool for navigating the sexual droughts of an LDR...

This app-controlled vibrating butt plug comes with a choice of sizes for either beginner or intermediate users.

This one (RRP £156, on sale for £74) is the extra small beginner size, at one inch diameter. All other sizes come in at the same price (RRP £179, on sale for £94) and cater for intermediate to advanced anal play. As the size increases, so does the battery life — with the smallest size lasting for two hours and the largest size lasting for a whopping 11 hours.

Not only does the corresponding app offer unlimited vibration patterns, it can also be synced to music, if you and your partner are feeling ~ creative ~.

This gorge masturbator is from premium brand LELO, which we're all a little bit obsessed with on the Cosmo team.

Designed for people with penises, this masturbator is designed so that you slip a dick inside its pliable sleeve (after pouring in pleeenty of lube) and let the intense vibrations carry you away into a world of pleasure.

As well as boasting dual motors, the toy creates deep sonic waves that reverberate through the shaft. It also makes use of LELO's unique Cruise Control feature, which prevents any dip in power throughout a session.

Controlled via an app, it's ideal for spicing up a sexting session...

This cordless, rumbly and surprisingly quiet wand vibrator comes with two fun attachments that allow for a customisable experience.

You can play with the wand solo or add its included clitoral flutter attachment or a penis stroker attachment — whichever you fancy, really.

It boasts an ergonomic handle (to help you try and avoid tennis elbow... we've all been there) and a respectable 10 vibration modes, but the best bit is that it's controllable via an app, making long distance lovin' that much easier to attain.

Word to the wise, however, this toy is designed exclusively for external play — don't try to insert it anywhere!

Another We-Vibe toy to the add to the list (what can we say, they're the GOAT of long distance toys) this G-spot vibrator boasts two motors: one that targets the G-spot and another aimed at the vaginal opening (where about 90% of the vaginal nerve endings are located).

It's an updated version of We-Vibe's beloved Rave toy — which is designed to be twisted not thrusted, so as to ensure prolonged contact with the G-spot. The Rave 2.0 comes with an adjustable hinge, meaning that you can bend and adjust its shape so that it perfectly fits with your body.

Of course, if you're not so into penetration, you can also use the vibe on your clit...

Aaaand it's app-controlled!
