The 10 best male sex toys will blow your mind, body, and soul

If you're on a budget or shopping for your first sex toy, the Arcwave Ghost is an affordable option that doesn't skimp on pleasure. This silicone toy is reversible so you can enjoy two distinct sensations with one device.

"When it comes to strokers, bigger isn’t necessarily better," Justin Lehmiller, Ph.D. (aka The Sex Dr.) and research fellow at The Kinsey Institute, tells Mashable. "The Arcwave Ghost’s compact size offers discreet and easy storage and the ability to travel with it. Also, while its design may appear simple at first, this silicone stroker flips inside out, offering two different sensation surfaces. Double your pleasure!"

And if you're wondering just how good the reversible sleeve feels, Zachary Zane, author of Boyslut: A Memoir and Manifesto and sex expert for Momentum Intimacy, says it feels "incredible against your shaft and head, and it's super easy to clean."

We should note that men with particularly large penises will not be able to fully insert their penis into the sleeve, a common problem with stroker toys for men.

The Handy isn't your typical masturbator — this interactive stroker toy takes solo pleasure to an extraordinary level. With its sleek and Norwegian-inspired design, both inside and out, the technology behind this blowjob machine is truly mind-blowing.

It's Wi-Fi enabled and can be effortlessly controlled through the Handyverse app, while its video sync feature allows it to replicate every movement in your favorite videos, from blow jobs to penetration. That makes this the best male sex toy for lovers of virtual reality and futuristic pleasure products.

This handy device (yes, pun intended) is said to be the masturbation of the future, with several experts agreeing that it's one of the best male sex toys on the market.

"I find the Handy quite intriguing and exciting," Graveris tells Mashable. "It caters to those who derive pleasure from the visual aspect of having a device work its magic on their shaft. With its clear, textured sleeve, and external motor, this toy offers an automated pumping motion that can be customized to match your preferred stroke speed and length. It's like having your own personal pleasure assistant!"

Graveris also mentions that the Handy is easy to use and comfortable to hold, and the sleeve can be tightened or loosened depending on your preference. "The adjustable Velcro band adds another layer of versatility, allowing you to explore different sensations by using alternative sleeves from your collection," adds Graveris.

These TENGA EGGS may look a little different than the rest of the toys on this list, but those differences are what make them special.

"These cleverly designed toys act as sleeves that effortlessly slide over the penis, providing a pleasurable and customizable sensation," Rhiannon John, a sexologist at Bedbible, tells Mashable. "Its versatility and range of ribbed patterns set the Tenga egg apart. Each TENGA EGG features a unique texture with crafted ribbed patterns, adding extra excitement to your personal pleasure sessions."

This standard variety pack comes with wavy, boxy, brush, tornado, sphere, and silky patterns. It also comes with lubricant, so once you open the egg, you can apply and enjoy. These features make this toy much easier to pack than, say, a Fleshlight, but that's not all — they also make this toy a fun, easy, and cost-effective way to sample what you like. 

The eggs are disposable, so clean up is nice and easy, but if you find a pattern you really like, you can buy a non-disposable version — it just might cost you a bit more.

If you're looking for a hands-free prostate massage, then the LELO HUGO may be exactly what you need. With two vibrating motors and six settings, the HUGO offers unparalleled pleasure for P-spot stimulation. It's also waterproof, so you can play in the shower or bath without worry.

"The vibrations produced by this toy are persistent, powerful, and wonderfully rumbly, which really hits the spot for me," Graveris tells Mashable. "It's like having a mini powerhouse of pleasure in the palm of your hand."

This luxe remote control prostate vibe also features SenseMotion technology that allows you or your partner to control the intensity of the vibrations with just a tilt or shake of the remote.

“Not only is it a convenient and hands-free way to adjust the intensity, but it also adds an element of fun and excitement to the experience,” says Graveris. “It's a delightful surprise to discover how the toy responds to your movements, allowing you to customize the sensations and explore new heights of pleasure.”

Playboy has released a ton of exciting new sex toys for women under its Playboy Pleasures brand in 2023, but the iconic company also has toys for men and non-binary adults. An intrepid Mashable reviewer recently tested out the new Playboy Pleasures sex toys for men, and he was impressed by the results he achieved with the Bunny Buzzer.

In reviewing this cute, bunny-shaped vibrating cock ring, our product tester found that it worked better for some female partners than for others, but on the whole it was an impressive ring that delivered repeat orgasms. Unlike some other vibrating cock rings, this bullet vibrator isn't overly complicated, which is actually a key benefit. Some other luxury cock rings are also a bit overpriced (we're looking at you, LELO), but the Bunny Buzzer is an easy to use and dependable sex toy with a reasonable price.

Use it alone or with a partner for intense vibrations and powerful orgasms.

The KIIROO Onyx+ is a unique blowjob machine with three modes: interactive, manual, and automatic. Its high-end tech meets pleasure, offering a realistic experience with up to 140 strokes per minute and a super quiet motor for discreet use.

You can also pair it with any KIROO device (KIIROO Pearl, KIIROO Onyx, OhMiBod Fuse, OhMiBod Esca, or any FeelTechnology-enabled compatible device) for a fully interactive experience, which is ideal for anyone in a long-distance relationship. Feel your partner's touch in real-time, no matter where you are.

"One aspect that sets the Onyx+ apart is its unique and textured sleeve, which features internal contraction rings," Graveris tells Mashable. "When you insert your penis into this sleeve, you'll experience a sensation, unlike the traditional up-and-down motion in most milking machines. Instead, it simulates the feeling of being gently squeezed and released, creating a new level of pleasure."

Graveris also says that the Onyx+ is compact and silent, making it ideal for anyone on the go.

The Arcwave Ion is the "world's first pleasure air male masturbator" that takes air pulsation technology to a new level of pleasure. Like the oh-so-popular Satisfyer toys for people assigned female at birth (AFAB), the Arcwave Ion uses gentle airwaves to stimulate those sensitive Pacinian receptors in the frenulum.

"What sets the Arcwave Ion apart is its innovative use of suction air technology, specifically designed to target and stimulate the sensitive nerves of the frenulum, often referred to as the male clitoris," Graveris tells Mashable. "This distinctive approach to male vibrators offers a completely different sensation beyond traditional vibration-based toys."

The only caveat? Graveris notes that finding the best position to fully enjoy the sensations of the Arcwave Ion may take a bit of experimentation. "But once you discover the sweet spot that works best for you, the payoff is extraordinary," he adds. "The sensations it generates can be described as incredibly intense and, according to some users, even approaching the level of a female orgasm."

Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be frustrating and challenging for individuals and couples. This condition prevents people from achieving or maintaining an erection, affecting an estimated 30 million people in the U.S. Fortunately, sex toy companies have developed innovative solutions to help individuals with ED preserve their sexual health and pleasure.

One example of this ingenuity is the Hot Octopuss Pulse Duo. This pleasure product features adjustable settings and dual-stimulation capabilities for both the user and their partner, making it a great choice for couples trying to spice up their intimate moments or combat the symptoms of ED.

"The Hot Octopuss Pulse Duo sleeve has an adjustable design that fits any girth and is a good option for men who have trouble with erections because they can use it without getting hard," Joe Kort, Ph.D., LMSW, founding director of The Center for Relationship and Sexual Health tells Mashable.

MysteryVibe has redefined the traditional cock ring with the Tenuto. This vibrating wearable toy stimulates the penis and the perineum, offering intense pleasure and heightened sensations for solo play and partnered fun.

"Tenuto is not your usual-shaped cock ring, and that's precisely why I love it," Graveris tells Mashable. "Putting on this cock ring for the first time was a bit of a learning curve, but once I got the hang of it, I was blown away by the pleasure it delivered."

With six strategically placed motors, Graveris says using the Tenuto is like having a symphony of pleasure at your fingertips. "The stimulation provided by Tenuto is nothing short of amazing," adds Graveris. "It's not just about the physical pleasure but also the connection it creates with my partner. We enjoy exploring the different settings and finding what drives us wild."

Now, with that said, the original Tenuto is no longer available, but MysteryVibe's Tenuto 2 (which is also available on the MysteryVibe website) is an upgraded version of this highly-recommended toy. You can also purchase the Tenuto Mini as a smaller version of the OG Tenuto.
