Cute, discreet, wearable, and powerful – that’s the promise of egg vibrators like the Lovense Lush 3 and the Ohmibod Esca 2.
These two toys have similar looks and functions and are both made by popular, tech-forward sex toy distributors. But what sets them apart?
In this Lovense Lush 3 vs Ohmibod Esca 2 review, I will cover all the details you need to know about these fun teledildonic toys.
You will learn more about the ins and outs of each toy, how they work, and which one is the right choice for you.

What is the Ohmibod Esca 2?
The Ohmibod Esca 2 is a compact and wearable teledildonic vibrator. This toy can be controlled remotely through the Ohmibod smartphone app.
Ohmibod Esca 2 comes to you through collaboration with the Kiiroo company, which has been known for years by tech-heads as a cutting-edge teledildonic company.
Kiiroo is especially well known for its toys’ compatibility with online adult content like 3D adult games and VR videos.
Ohmibod’s Esca toy, now in its enhanced second edition with the Esca 2, is a fierce competitor with wearable vibrators like the Lovense Lush and We-Vibe Chorus.’
The Ohmibod Esca 2 is larger and more flexible than its predecessor. It is a fun piece of gear that has tons of cool, futuristic features, especially thanks to its Bluetooth capabilities.
The Esca is also known for its glowing light system and is the only toy of its kind to light up brightly during use.
The Esca will use its LED light system to respond to where its vibrations are most effective.
The bright glow of the toy also helps to get a view of the action without ruining the mood with overhead lights.
The Esca 2 is also designed to be compatible with VR content. Along with that, the Esca 2 can be paired with any Ohmibod or Kiiroo toy.
Because of its Bluetooth capabilities, the Esca 2 can be controlled remotely or long-distance using the Ohmibod App.
The Ohmibod App is free to download and use. You can use it with any compatible smart device that can access the Apple App or Google Play store.
The Ohmibod app is also itself a fun toy. Like a health app, you can use it to track your orgasms and other goals related to your sexual pleasure.
The Esca 2 has an elongated, ovular shape and a flexible tail that remains outside the body for easy removal and additional external tickling.
The Esca 2 is first and foremost a g-spot stimulator toy. While you can get a bit of clitoral stimulation from it, you might want to use it with another toy, like a bullet vibrator.
What is The Lovense Lush 3?
The Lovense Lush 3 is the popular, award-winning egg vibrator from the Lovense company, known for the Lovense Remote app.
The Lush 3 is the third edition of the top-selling Lush anal toy, which put Lovense on the map as a remote-controllable and Bluetooth-enabled toy.
The Lovense Lush is a hands-free g-spot stimulator that can be inserted for extended periods.
Its rounded, egg-like shape places firm pressure against the g-spot while its thin antenna tail extends outward to provide additional stimulation to the clit.
The tail also has the dual-purpose of housing the Lush’s Bluetooth chip, which enhances connectivity and ensures your session will not be disrupted by tech issues.
The Lush is great for remote, long-distance, and public play. Whether playing solo or with a partner, the Lush will satisfy.
Lovense is known for its boosted vibration motors which provide stunning, rumbly vibrations even in the smallest and most discreet toys.
And discreet is the key word for the Lush because as a wearable toy, you might like to wear it anywhere. And with a whisper quiet motor of no louder than 43 decibels, you can.
Another good option for an egg vibrator is the newly released lovense vulse but it is a little louder than the lush.
As a toy that’s almost entirely inserted into the body, the Lush can be extra discreet because so much of its vibration volume is absorbed.
The Lush is not just a vibrator because with the enhanced functionality of the Lovense Remote app, it is like multiple toys in one.
The Lovense Remote app is one of the top-rated sex toy remote apps available. It is free for download from either the Apple App store or Google Play store.
The Lovense Remote app features a variety of functions. You can turn on and control the Lovense Lush 3 remotely or long-distance via WiFi connection.
That means a partner can control the Lush from another country!
Along with remote control, the app has other fun features like customizable vibration patterns and the ability to sync the Lush 3 to the music of your choice.
You can also sync the Lush with any other Lovense toy. By using the Hush 2 Butt Plug, or another Lush 3 together, you can enjoy the same pulses simultaneously.
How to Use Lush 3?
The Lush 3 has a super simple interface and along with the user-friendly Lovense Remote app, it is a breeze to use either manually or virtually.
To start, you will want to charge your Lush 3 to full capacity, which will take about an hour. The red indicator light will turn on to alert you that the Lush is properly connected to the USB cable.
To power on the Lush 3, you will hold down the manual power button. You can locate this control button on the tail, and you will know it’s on when the toy begins vibrating.
(To turn off, you will hold down the button again until it stops vibrating – easy to remember!)
If you do not have the Lovense Remote app or don’t have your device with you, you can still use the Lush 3. You just won’t have access to app-specific features.
To use the Lush 3 with the Lovense Remote app, you will need to pair the toy with the app. All you need is a Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or tablet.
Download the Lovense Remote app from either the Apple App or Google Play store. The app is totally free to download and use – with no hidden costs or premium subscription features.
Once your Lush 3 is charged, and your Remote app is downloaded, you can pair the two to get to playing.
Rather than going through the Bluetooth controls in your phone’s system settings, you will actually make the connection directly in the app.
Upon first opening the Remote app, you will be greeted with the main menu screen. The first load-up might take a few extra seconds.
The great thing is that you only need to go through the pairing process once, and from then on the app will automatically recognize and connect with the Lush 3.
To pair, you should see a + button at the top of the screen. From here, the app will automatically search for any new, unpaired Lovense toys in its range.
If it’s close enough and properly charged, your Lush 3 should appear on the screen. You can then confirm the pairing, and you are ready to go.
How to Use Esca 2?
Straight out of the box, you will want to be sure to charge your new Esca 2 for an hour and a half before use. It will not be charged at all on arrival.
Once charged, you can begin using your Esca 2 manually or using the virtual remote and features with the Ohmibod app.
You will insert the bulkier end of the Esca 2 inside the vagina so that the thinner tail is sticking out.
The Esca 2 has a helpful, light-colored band around the end where it’s recommended you not insert the toy any further inside the vagina.
The Esca 2 also has its helpful indicator light located at the rounded end of the tail. This light not only lights up your session, it indicates to a partner (or viewer) how intense the vibrations are.
The main motor of the Esca will also send vibrations into the tail, so when it rests against the clit it provides additional stimulation.
The Ohmibod app is straightforward and free to download. Like the Lovense Remote app, you can download it free from the Apple App or Google Play store.
On the Ohmibod app you can control the Esca 2 remotely or long-distance. You can also
The Bluetooth connectivity between the Esca 2 and the app is quite strong. Your partner can travel up to 26 feet away from the toy without losing connection.
If you do run into Bluetooth issues, especially in the initial pairing process, it might be helpful to first troubleshoot your smart device.
Try restarting and make sure Bluetooth is enabled.
You will also want to make sure your device is not actively paired with another device, like a speaker, as that will prevent the Esca from pairing.
The other feature to take note of when using the Esca 2 is its LED light located on the tail.
This light shines quite brightly. Also, if you have access to an Apple Watch, there is actually a function where you can have the Esca 2’s light react to your heartbeat.
Cam models or anyone who likes to put on a show will enjoy the way the glow gives you a glimpse of the action without revealing everything.
While the light is a great asset, some people might find it distracting – or it’s giving them away if they’re trying to be discreet.
Fortunately, you can turn off the Esca 2’s light through the app remote.
Comparison of Features Between Lush and Esca
Lush vs Esca – Size
On first view, the Lush and Esca are clearly similar shapes but are hard to compare because of their different sizes and design features.
The Lush is slightly larger than the Esca 2 and has a more bulbous, rounded head, while the Esca 2 is a more elongated shape with a thinner head.
The Lush 3 is 8.3 inches long from head to tail and 1.5 inches wide.
The Lush is also extremely lightweight despite being designed to apply so much pressure to the inside of the vagina.
The Esca is slightly smaller at a total length of 7.3 inches and a 1.3 inch diameter. The Esca 2 weighs 1.9 ounces (56g).
Both toys are compact and quite comfortable, especially as hands-free toys that are intended to be worn for hours.
Lush vs Esca – Noise
The Lush 3 is a whisper-quiet toy. It has actually been redesigned in this third edition to be even quieter than the previous Lush toys.
The Lush at its loudest is about 43 decibels, which is no louder than a standard library.
The Esca 2 is still quiet, but not as whisper quiet as the Lush. The Esca 2 can reach about 50 decibels, which could require some covering up if you are in a quiet location.
However, both of these sound levels should give you all the discretion you need for the bedroom.
You are unlikely to have issues with the noise of the Lush or Esca getting past your bedroom walls.
Lush vs Esca – Battery Life
You want your wearable toy to have an extended battery life, especially if you take it outside of the bedroom for a spin.
What could be more inconvenient than having your vibrator die in the middle of a public play session?
Fortunately, you do not have to worry much with either the Lush 3 or Esca 2, as they both have impressive battery life.
The Lush 3 has the longer battery life of the two, clocking in on average at about 4.5 to 5 hours, depending on the intensity of use.
The Lush can also last for much longer with its standby feature. You can keep it “on hand” and ready to go whenever you trigger it with the remote app.
The Esca 2, by comparison, can last up to 3 hours, which is still impressive battery life for a vibrator, especially once that reaches the intensity it does.
Lush vs Esca – Feel
The Lush and Esca both have stunningly powerful vibrations for toys of their size. However, the vibrations’ quality and the toys’ overall sensation when inserted vary quite a bit.
For g-spot stimulators, most people enjoy a lower, pulsing vibration that reaches deeper parts of the body.
To that end, the Lovense Lush is the more rumbly of the two. The Esca 2 has a lighter, buzzier vibration similar to a typical bullet vibrator for clit stimulation.
The Lush has a more balanced vibration between a wand and a bullet. The Lush is slightly tickly but with a deeper rumble.
The shape of these two toys also affects the sensations you will get from them. The Lush is slightly girthier and has a sturdier tail.
The Esca has a more tapered design and a much more flexible tail.
The tail of the Lush is much more likely to stay pressed against the clit, which is great for people who enjoy dual-stimulation.
Lush vs Esca – App Features
Both the Lush 3 and the Esca 2 have the bonus feature of coming with amazing Bluetooth remote apps that are completely free to download and use.
Gone are the days of rooting around for the teeny, plastic remote that comes with your remote-controlled vibrator, or worse, having to find a replacement battery.
The Lovense Remote app hosts a variety of fun options to interact with your Lush 3, with other Lovense toys, and with other people.
The Ohmibod app is also easy to use and has great functionality with the Esca 2, but it is a little simpler.
On the Lovense app, you can search for and connect with other Lovense users if you know their usernames. You can also pair your Lush 3 with other Lovense toys.
The Ohmibod app also has a cool chat feature. You can have a live text chat with another Ohmibod user or with your partner while they control your device.
Other features on the Lovense Remote app are customizable vibration patterns and music syncing. You can save your specialty patterns for later use, too.
Both the Lovense Remote app and Ohmibod app allow for long-distance control via Wifi connection. Both toys are great for long-distance couples or cam models.
Both Lovense and Ohmibod/Kiiroo have multiple options for Virtual Reality and other online adult content.

My Views on Which is Better
I am a huge fan of teledildonic toys of all shapes and sizes, and I have enjoyed both the Lovense Lush 3 and Ohmibod Esca 2 immensely.
But which comes out on top in this Lovense Lush 3 vs Ohmibod Esca 2 head-to-head?
The Lovense Lush 3 gets the most points for vibration power, shape, and app functionality.
I love the deep, powerful vibrations of the Lovense Lush 3 motors. My partner and I travel a lot and use the Lovense Remote app, as well.
The Ohmibod Esca 2 has lovely, tickly vibrations that I think some people would say are their preference. The Esca is also great for fans of VR and other online adult content.
It is so cool to be able to connect your sex toy to a game or video; it is seriously like living in the future!
The Esca 2 also quickly connects to the app and has great functionality and Bluetooth connectivity. These toys are equally matched for the quality of their connections.
The Ohmibod app works well but is much more simple than the Lovense Remote app. The Lovense Remote app has many great features, especially customizing vibration patterns.
The Lovense app alone might make the Lush 3 (or any Lovense toy) the standout winner, but the toy itself is also fantastic.
The Lush 3 is great for the adventurous or long-distance couple that wants to experiment with new things.
Both toys are also well suited for public play, however, the LED light in the Esca 2 makes it better suited for the bedroom.
Fortunately, you can turn off the light if you want to go under the radar or find it distracting.
The other secret benefit of the Lovense Lush 3 is that I got it on super sale thanks to the discounts that Lovense was featuring on their website at the time.
My partner and I went in on a bundle package so that we could each get a toy we could use and sync up with. This cut down the price immensely compared to buying each toy separately.
Lovense has great customer service. Both Lovense and Ohmibod also offer quality warranties on their toys, which is great in case of any shipping damages or issues outside your control.
Fortunately, I have not had any issues with my Lush 3 or Esca 2 or technical difficulties. Both toys have satisfied me, and I find myself reaching for both.
