Lovense Hush 2 vs We-Vibe Ditto+: Which vibrating anal plug to choose
The Lovense Hush 2 and the We-Vibe Ditto+ are both rechargeable vibrating butt plugs designed to be worn and controlled hands-free. Lovense presents the Hush 2 as a plug available in four diameters and fully controlled via its app, with both short and long-range operation. We-Vibe describes the Ditto+ as a compact plug with a tapered tip and flexible base, supplied with a physical remote and compatible with the We-Vibe app. This comparison isn’t based on any hands-on testing: it simply sets out what each brand states on its own product page.

Remote in hand or smartphone in hand: two different approaches to control
This is the most defining difference between the two product pages. We-Vibe equips the Ditto+ with three levels of control: a button directly on the plug’s base, a physical remote described as splash-resistant, and the We-Vibe app, which also allows remote operation. Lovense, for its part, only mentions the Lovense Remote app for the Hush 2, but goes into more detail about what it enables: short and long-range control, unlimited vibration patterns, programmable levels, music sync and sound-activated vibrations. The page also lists compatible platforms: iOS 11 and above, Android 5.0 and above, Mac, and Windows via the Lovense USB Bluetooth adapter. In short, the Ditto+ is the better option if you’d rather not reach for your phone, while the Hush 2 pushes further on software-based customisation.
Four diameters versus a single size
Lovense offers the Hush 2 in four maximum diameters: 2.5 cm, 3.8 cm, 4.5 cm and 5.7 cm. The page notes that the smallest version is aimed at beginners, while the larger diameters are better suited to those already familiar with anal play. Each version is described as 100% silicone, waterproof, portable and app-controlled, with a flared base said to be comfortable and secure. The Ditto+ page gives no dimensions at all: We-Vibe calls it “small but mighty”, with a tapered tip meant to ease insertion and a flexible base, and presents it as suited to different body types. So if you’re unsure about sizing, the Hush 2 gives you a clear range to choose from, whereas the Ditto+ requires you to go on a qualitative description alone.
Battery life, charging, noise: what each page actually documents
On usage figures, the two pages aren’t playing in the same league when it comes to transparency. Lovense publishes a detailed comparison table for the Hush 2: 66 minutes to charge, up to 172 minutes of use, a minimum noise level of 38 dB and up to 7,500 vibrations per minute, with a magnetic charging port. Worth noting: there’s an internal inconsistency, as the 3.8 cm size listing mentions up to 4 hours of continuous use instead. The Ditto+ page only mentions USB cable charging, with no charging time, no stated battery life and no noise level given. Both products claim the same IPX7 waterproof rating, though. If these figures matter to your decision, only the Hush 2’s data can actually be checked against the manufacturer’s page.
Remote play and syncing with content
Both brands claim remote-control capability via their respective apps: We-Vibe states you can control your toys “even from a distance” with a simple tap on the screen, while Lovense dedicates an FAQ entry and a dedicated line — “long-distance control” — to this feature. Lovense goes further, though, in what it describes around its wider ecosystem: music syncing, sound-activated vibrations, pairing the Hush 2 with other brand devices (Lush 4, Edge 2, Gush 2) as part of couples’ sets, and syncing with videos or games. The Ditto+ page doesn’t mention syncing with online content, nor controlling multiple devices at once.
Materials and safety of use
Lovense states the Hush 2 is made from 100% silicone, with a flared base described as comfortable and safe, and a magnetic charging port said to be more hygienic than an open port. We-Vibe highlights a soft silicone coating for the Ditto+, materials described as skin-safe, and manufacturing free from phthalates, BPA and latex — an explicit claim the Hush 2 page doesn’t make in the same way. The Ditto+ page also includes detailed instructions: water-based lubricant on the tip, gradual insertion, rotating into a comfortable position, then switching on via the base button. Both are advertised with an IPX7 waterproof rating.
Where the Ditto+ has the edge
The Ditto+ has one genuine practical advantage: it doesn’t rely on a smartphone. We-Vibe supplies a physical remote, described as splash-resistant, plus a control button right on the plug’s base, letting you switch modes without an app. The brand also emphasises manufacturing free of phthalates, BPA and latex, a tapered tip designed to ease insertion, and a flexible base. Its page also provides step-by-step instructions, handy for a first anal play experience. IPX7 waterproofing and USB charging round things out.
Hush 2 or Ditto+: which one should you pick?
The Lovense Hush 2 — The Hush 2 is the better fit if you want to pick your exact diameter from four available sizes, want hard figures for battery life, charging time and noise level, and want to make use of long-range control paired with music syncing or online content sync.
The We-Vibe Ditto+ — The Ditto+ is more suited to you if you’d rather have a physical remote and an on-device button, so you can control vibrations without going through a phone at all, and if you want manufacturing explicitly stated to be free of phthalates, BPA and latex.
Frequently asked questions
Can these plugs be used in the shower or bath?
Both pages advertise IPX7 waterproofing. Lovense describes the Hush 2 as fully waterproof, regardless of size, and lists the IPX7 rating in its comparison table. We-Vibe, for its part, states that the Ditto+ can be used in a bath or shower thanks to this same IPX7 protection. The Ditto+‘s remote, however, is only described as splash-resistant.
Do you need a smartphone to use them?
For the Ditto+, no: We-Vibe states you can cycle through patterns and intensities using the button on the plug’s base or the included remote, with the app being purely optional. The Hush 2 page only mentions control via the Lovense Remote app, compatible with iOS, Android, Mac and Windows via the Lovense USB Bluetooth adapter.
Which one is better suited to someone new to anal play?
Lovense answers this directly: the Hush 2 comes in four diameters, and its 2.5 cm version is described as ideal for beginners, with the larger sizes aimed at more experienced users. We-Vibe gives no dimensions for the Ditto+, but describes a small-format plug with a tapered tip, and provides detailed instructions recommending water-based lubricant and gradual insertion, without ever forcing things.
How long does the battery last on a single charge?
Only the Lovense page puts numbers to this: the Hush 2’s comparison table states 66 minutes of charging for up to 172 minutes of use, via a magnetic charging port. Worth noting, the 3.8 cm size listing instead mentions up to 4 hours of continuous use. The Ditto+ page mentions USB cable charging without specifying either charging time or battery life.
