Lelo Dot Review: A Clitoral Pinpoint Vibrator

I didn’t expect 2025 to be the year that my longtime favorite vibrator would be replaced, but here we are. The winner of such a regal spot in my bedside table drawer? The Lelo Dot, a clitoral pinpoint vibrator.

I’ve come across a few pinpoint vibrators in my life as a sex toy reviewer, but I usually dismissed them mostly based on looks: pokey, aggressive, and somewhat medieval. In most cases, the pinpoint was made of hard ABS plastic, making it even more uninviting. It’s here that the Dot immediately stood out against other pinpoint vibrators with its super-soft and flexible silicone. Being able to easily move the pinpoint with my fingers made it more welcoming, too.

From the moment the precision tip touched my clitoris, I knew I was dealing with something far different from other vibrators. While traditional vibrators, like wands, bullets, and G-spot vibrators, diffuse vibrations so they travel in waves across and/or inside the vulva, that wasn’t happening with the Dot.

Because of the tip, the vibrations are precise, meaning you can explore the glans of the clitoris in an intimate way that you just can’t with vibrators that have bigger heads. If you thought that every part of your glans experiences pleasure in the same way, then you’re in for a treat—it doesn’t.

For example, I’ve learned that the most sensitive part of my glans is the upper left area that’s closest to the prepuce, also known as the clitoral hood. When I use toys, I know that if I angle the vibrators, no matter how big the head, so that the majority of the pressure and intensity is on that area, that’s what feels best for me. When you reduce the head size down so it’s just a point, as is the case with the Dot’s design, then you can focus on that one itty-bitty spot, giving you more to discover in sensations. You’re not just stimulating the vulva and its money spot, the clitoris—you can stimulate the money spots within the money spot, increasing pleasure exponentially.

Having so much control over such a small and extremely sensitive area allowed me to experience orgasms in a new and more intense way, and the Dot also makes multiple orgasms easier to achieve. There’s something about pinpoint stimulation that leaves the body craving more, so you succumb to that desire and give it more.

Orgasm after orgasm, like I’d never had with a traditional vibrator, made me ever-so briefly concerned. So far, I’ve managed to live my entire life without any addictions, but with the Dot, I couldn’t help but wonder, “Am I going to turn into Charlotte York? Is the Dot to me what the Rabbit was to her? Have I finally found a vice with which I’ll need to grapple?” I’ve only had the Lelo Dot for almost a month so far, so it’s hard to say. But if ever there were a vibrator that would lead me down a road of obsession and lust, the Dot is it.

Near Perfect for Those With Vulvas

While the precision is certainly the best part about the Dot, it has other features that make it a must-have for those with vulvas. Like the majority of Lelo toys, it’s 100 percent waterproof, has a run time of two hours (which takes two hours of charging to get there), and is USB rechargeable. Note, though, that only one end of the included charging cable is USB-A. The connector that goes into the Dot is a barrel charger, which isn’t as convenient as USB-C.
