The MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 is the final boss of penis aids. It took a minute to learn the ins and outs of the positioning and how to work the app, but my partner noticed a marked difference in the potency of his orgasm. It’s an excellent choice for people with erectile dysfunction or anyone who wants a top-of-the-line, doctor-approved cock ring with targeted vibrations to increase blood flow, enhance erections, and improve orgasms.

Who Should Try It? Anyone struggling with erectile dysfunction will be comforted by the fact that there are options beyond Viagra. This pricy penis vibrator can do wonders for your erections and sexual confidence, and if you have extra money in your FSA or HSA, this is an easy choice.

Who Can Skip It? If you don’t suffer from ED, there are other cock rings with much cheaper price tags.

You Can Buy It on the official MysteryVibe website for $244.

What Is the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2?

The Tenuto 2 is a vibrating cock ring designed by doctors not only to improve your erections but to help your partner reach orgasm. The four motors are placed precisely to help stimulate your penis while soft, titillate your perineum, and engage your partner if you’re playing together. It’s app-compatible and intense, and the materials are made to last. It’s pricy, but it’s also a sex toy that you likely will not need to upgrade or toss out for the foreseeable future.

First Impressions and Features

Unboxing

MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 arrived discreetly on my doorstep. After opening the inconspicuous cardboard box it came in, I found a neat, sturdy, white cardboard box inside. The unboxing experience was clinical, which makes sense for a sex toy whose purpose is to be used as an erection-enhancing health aid. The device was accompanied by a USB recharging cable, a quick start guide, and a user manual (items are visible in the image below).

The content of the boxThe content of the box

The quick start guide was helpful because the buttons aren’t very intuitive. The safety instructions are what you would expect, except for safety instruction #9: “DO NOT throw product into flames.” So, if you were wondering if this was one of those vibrating cock rings that you can throw directly into flames, the answer is no. I wished it came with a sample packet of lube and a carrying case at this price point, so that was slightly disappointing.

Specifications

MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 specifications at a glance:

  • Material: Silicone
  • Size: 4” x 5” x 2.5”; opening is 1.8” x 1.6” when stretched
  • Color: Dark blue
  • Mechanism: Penis and perineum vibration
  • Weight: 6.6 ounces

How Do I Use the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2?

After unboxing Tenuto 2, wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap or sex toy cleaner. Then charge it. The guide to getting started indicated that it would take one hour to charge and then last two hours on a full charge. When I tested it on the first setting, it took an hour and forty minutes to charge and then lasted for twelve hours and eleven minutes, both well over the estimated time. Plug the cable into the port on the back. You’ll know it’s connected and charging when the light blinks amber (it should look like the image below). When it’s green, the battery is full.

The device chargingThe device charging

Now it’s time to dive into the four-button setup on the Tenuto. As you can see in the image below, there is a plus, a minus, and two buttons with arrows. One of the arrows has a power sign next to it, and holding that button for two seconds turns the vibrator on or off. The other arrow has a small dot next to it, and holding that for two seconds turns on the Bluetooth. If you press either of the arrows briefly, they take you forward and backward through the patterns. The plus and minus buttons increase and decrease the intensity.

Download the MysteryVibe app if you’d like to use your phone as a remote control, which I found to be the easiest way to operate the vibrator. In the app, you can create your own patterns or download additional preset patterns. Hold down the arrow button that has a dot to enable Bluetooth. You will know it’s on when it vibrates twice and the light blinks blue. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone, and then select Tenuto 2 and press “tap to connect.” The app does the rest! The app will allow you to control the vibrator with your phone from up to twenty feet away. It’s an excellent idea to download the app and plan to operate the device on your phone, since once you’re wearing the vibe, the buttons can be quite hard to reach. When you’re in the app, you can view which motors are activated on which settings and control them separately when you create your own patterns.

When you are ready to play, grab water-based lube and lube up your penis. Turn the device on and then stretch the opening to put it around your erection. It should sit comfortably at the base of your penis, and your testicles can be placed through the gap or rest on top, whichever you prefer. When you’ve placed it correctly, you’ll feel vibrations on your penis, balls, and perineum during solo play. You can also use Tenuto 2 during sex, and your partner will enjoy the rumbly vibrations as well.

To turn on the travel lock, hold down the plus and minus buttons for four seconds simultaneously. To deactivate it, hold the buttons again or charge the vibrator. When you’re done, wash the Tenuto 2 and store it in a makeup bag or somewhere safe from the elements.

My Personal Experience

My partner willingly volunteered his penis to try out this science-backed pleasure aid, and we were both excited to see how it worked. This isn’t the squishy, stretchy style of vibrating cock ring that we’d both used numerous times before; this was a sturdy, flexible, tight-squeeze with more powerful motors than any other product we’ve tried. It has four separate motors, and it shows.

Here’s the deal: the little blue pill only works for some people in certain scenarios. So many different triggers cause erectile dysfunction, and a prescription typically only addresses the root cause if it is vascular. If you’re plagued by performance anxiety, a pill may not solve your problem. The Tenuto 2 can help with performance anxiety, allowing your partner to get off from the vibrations, no matter how well your erection is performing on any given day.

On my end, I enjoyed the vibrations. They were rumbly and traveled well for me. They weren’t enough for me to get off because I typically need solid stimulation, not patterns. And with a wearable penis vibrator, I only felt the vibrations when my partner had fully thrusted, so it’s an on-off pattern. But we both enjoyed using it.

Packaging

As you can see in the image below, MysteryVibe Tenuto 2’s packaging is a white cardboard box, and it looks like something techy. Inside the box is the cock ring and a USB recharging cable, but it is missing any plushy extras, which is a slight letdown at this price point.

The packagingThe packaging

Design

Right off the bat, we noticed that this penis vibe didn’t look like other cock rings or partner vibrators that we had seen before. I was pleasantly surprised that the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 includes stimulations for the perineum—a spot that many cock rings neglect. It also stimulates your partner’s labia, vulva, and clit, if they have those, and will give a nice, buzzy jolt to anything it encounters.

The website says that the Tenuto 2 is the world’s first wearable vibrator, which, if true, is incredible. It also says that it fits 90% of penis shapes and sizes, and while that is impossible to test, it did fit my partner incredibly snugly. My partner noted that it felt slightly bulky around the perineum, though he enjoyed the vibrating sensations. The vibrations don’t stay tight against the perineum, however, so they were slightly more muted than he expected.

The gap at the bottom is designed specifically to allow for more powerful ejaculations in a way that traditional cock rings do not. Every part of this penis vibrator is designed specifically, with care, by experts. MysteryVibe incorporated malleable electronics to allow it to bend without tearing. The design was impressive, overall.

Material

The Tenuto 2 is made of showerproof silicone. It’s soft, stretchy, and durable. Better yet, you can clean it with water and soap without worrying about destroying the motor.

MysteryVibe Tenuto 2MysteryVibe Tenuto 2

The material is ultra-durable, and it’s much stronger than most cock rings. The sturdiness is extreme, so it can be difficult to get your testicles through the opening. And then, if you clench (which my partner does during masturbation, and I can only assume most people do), your balls may try to retract out of it. Since it’s not stretchy and clingy, they can start to come out of the opening, especially during orgasm. This situation happened to my partner once, and his balls got a little pinched. But he still enjoyed it enough to use it repeatedly because the design augmented the strength of his orgasms.

Stimulations

The stimulations are deeply rumbly and travel well, meaning they should reach your partner without problem and will stimulate everything from the base of your shaft to the depth of your perineum. On the website, the stimulations are referred to as medical frequency vibrations, which sounds complicated. But the position of the motors was well thought out and can help with blood flow for better erections and more powerful ejaculation.

Sound Level

I was astounded at how quiet this vibrator was on low settings, despite having four motors. When we tested the decibels, they ranged from 37 to 47. Just wow.

Build Quality and Dimensions

Tenuto 2’s build quality is gorgeous and seamless. It is modern, sturdy, and looks like something you might purchase from Apple. The dimensions make it larger than most cock rings because it has an extra element that reaches the perineum. It’s a little cumbersome, but that’s to be expected with a vibrator that has four motors (you can see how the dimensions compare to some of my other penis rings in the image below).

MysteryVibe App

The MysteryVibe app is straightforward to use. It gives you a visual of what’s going on with the vibrator you’re using, which is helpful. You can also create your own patterns and control the motors separately, adding versatility and customizability to the experience.

Ease of Use

After unboxing the Tenuto 2, I noticed that it looked more complex than other vibrating cock rings I’d seen. And when my partner put it on, it took a minute to get it comfortable. Add in learning the app and figuring out what the buttons do, and this isn’t a penis vibe that immediately brings joy. But it is well worth your time investment.

Closeup of the control interfaceCloseup of the control interface

My partner had to put the vibe on and take it off a few times before it felt natural to him—and like he wasn’t about to crush his testicles (they’re sensitive, okay?). But he did successfully get it on, learn how to use it, and it improved his orgasm exponentially.

The directions suggest turning the toy on before you wear it, which makes sense since the buttons are located on the bottom section of the vibrator—a hard-to-reach spot when it’s on. Fortunately, though, they are easy to press and simple to use once you get oriented and remember where they are. The easiest way to change the settings is by using the app.

Versatility

This wearable vibrator scores sky high for versatility. It’s showerproof, has numerous intensities and patterns, boasts an ultra-customizable app, and works for partner play or solo time. I was hoping you could control the motors separately, and I learned that you can if you use the app. Between the four motors and the many settings, you can do just about anything with the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2.

Warranty and Support

The Tenuto 2 is covered by a two-year warranty that you can activate by registering your device online.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

It took a little while for my partner to get it into a comfortable position, but it worked wonders once he did. After he got comfortable, the only remaining complaint was the expense, but that’s mitigated by the fact that you can use your FSA or HSA to pay for it.

Alternatives to the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2

MysteryVibe Tenuto Mini

The Tenuto Mini incorporates the main ideas from the Tenuto 2 into a smaller, cheaper package. For $280, you get three motors and a flexible vibrator whose targeted stimulations can help with longer, stronger erections. It’s showerproof, rechargeable, and app-compatible, but it’s missing the perineum vibrations. It’s textured for an extra dimension of sensation, has sixteen intensities, and lasts for an hour. Similar to its bigger brother, you can purchase a package deal with the Tenuto Mini, which includes Pjur brand lube and a remote control.

Luxus Couple Set

The Luxus Couple Set is much cheaper than the MysteryVibe Tenuto 2 at $149 and is a better choice for couples new to sex toys. Luxus is not designed by a doctor, and the vibrations are much less potent, but the cock ring is easier to figure out and wear for first-timers. It is also app-compatible, but it is geared for straight couples, and the vulva-haver must shave their pubic area for the stickers to work and the toy to be used hands-free.

Lovense Diamo

The Lovense Diamo is another more budget-friendly cock ring that costs $140. The Diamo is a vibrating cock ring that’s both app-compatible and rechargeable. It’s reversible, too, so you can have the tip vibrating against your perineum during solo play or rub up against your partner’s clit during partner play. The Diamo is firm but slightly easier to get into place, and it’s not as bulky as the Tenuto 2.
