Meet Lovense’s new self-teaching AI-stroker, their latest toy that makes video’s interactive using Vibemate’s new AI-Sync software, letting you feel the strokes you watch on screen – move for move – during your private and long distant swoons.
Unlike the original Solace, the new Lovense Solace Pro houses its motor in a silver unit attached to the side of the stroker instead of behind it, which means you get a full-size Fleshlight experience that strokes you skilfully at 300rpm, and in-turn slots into a mount for hands-free relief.
In brief, the Solace Pro is an inch longer, 10% faster, delivers slightly deeper thrusts and has more juice than the Solace. It’s specifically designed for AI interactive adventures (now with positional command), bringing extra dexterity to your blowey’s, and it’s $10 more. Here’s how Christmas with the new Lovense Solace Pro panned out.

First impressions
The Solace Pro took just 2 days to get here, arriving in a standard nondescript cardboard box. The Lovense box says what it does on the tin, so you will need park it somewhere discreet if there are prying eyes nearby, but it does come with discreet black bag so you can cloak the machine and its accessories.
The device is packaged well, has good firm polystyrene buffers and there were no missing parts or any damage located, and it has that brand new device smell which I like. Available in a host of languages, if your eyes have difficulty zooming in, try the the big screen pdf version.

NEW Lovense AI Sync feature
Software is Lovense’s forte, and there’s an AI pleasure revolution taking place right now, and Lovense is embracing it. To be clear though, certain genres currently perform better than others when it comes to pairing I’ve found.
Using their new “AI Sync” feature through their Vibemate browser, the software is able interpret the movements on screen and relay them back to the Solace Pro in real-time. Watching POV content from VR porn sites streamed through the browser is on the money most times, but the first couple of Hentai videos were hit and miss.
Lovense state it’s still in beta mode, so lets see how advanced it gets. If you have your own material, you can use Vibemate now to create a sync pattern for it. It’s normally pretty spot on, except when the lighting fades it can skip a beat.
What can I sync with Solace Pro?
So you have the Vibemate browser which allows you to pair with unlimited genres, be it: anime, Asian, mature, teen, bondage, hentai etc, but their AI sync feature also pairs automatically to:
- 2D porntube sites
- Livestreams
- Adult freemium sites (Stripchat et al)
- Adult games on apps
- Local videos on PC
- Multi-screen pairing (PC only)
- Video calls with partner
- Filming adult content
- Best 2D interactive site faptap.net
Can you watch VR with the Solace Pro? No and yes. VR is officially coming as SLR are developing scripts as we speak, but with no ETA just yet, you can still watch VR, as it follows other Lovense scripts pretty well as one reviewer states, until a proper update is released.
Go to DeoVR in chrome, the gargantuan free library of VR scripts and movies, and you can connect the Solace Pro via bluetooth using their Lovense Max 2 option. It can be a little jerky but it tracks scripts fairly smoothly.
Unlike the Solace which lacks positional control crucial for accurate timing and depth playback – so interactive BJ’s weren’t the best with the Solace, the Solace Pro API has positional command, which is indispensable for interactive blowey’s.
Hands-free mount
The icing on the cake is being able to use the Solace Pro hands-free. The Keon missed a trick in the early days without considering this feature and it would be a struggle to hold manually, given it’s over a kilogram.
The tabletop mount is super simple to put together. These GIF images by Lovense do the instructions justice. Make sure each part is screwed firmly in place to limit any reverb.
The Feel
Measuring 7.1″ internally, you gain an extra inch with this 2nd edition Solace. Girth wise you also get more room. It’s eye isn’t as tight as you might imagine, but then your own water based lube plays a role here.
The pleasure chamber is lined from start to finish in a millipede of globular shaped bulbs. Your size may determine your how sensual it feels, but being TPE you can warm it up to body temp in warm water first, which expands it slightly so then when you place it back in it’s case, you get a tighter fit. The sleeve feels very soft and slippery, with a crushing caress.
Solace Pro tips
1. Join an Orgy Event: Vibemate’s discord channel is where the live orgies take place, and they’re listed on Reddit first (try here), once or twice a month, which you can watch and lock into with other people.
2. Captain Hardcore: Gents are testing the Solace Pro out on the popular interactive game for VR and desktop right now – Captain Hardcore, where you seek out the deepest, darkest, most sordid regions in the universe.
3. Use your Fleshlight GO sleeve: For 7 inch guys, Lovense’s stock sleeve is a winner, however for a tighter affair, Fleshlight’s GO sleeve will slip inside. The closed ended Solace Pro sleeve is preferred though.
4. Stream multiple vids/live-streams at once: For PC only, there’s an option to add multiple links, so you can have many streams going on at the same time, where you switch between scripts or AI interpretive syncing.
5. Experiment with Edging/Cockhero/Joi videos: AI sync is training itself well, with new kinks joining the ranks of Solace Pro playtime adventures. Jerk-off instruction videos – aka Joi, edging games and cock hero torment are worth exploring.
Instructions & care
Manuals can be impossible to decipher sometimes when the font is minuscule, but in Lovense’s case it’s not too bad. There are some useful diagrams to give you food for thought and while the manual controls are self-explanatory, the long distant rendezvous and the Vibemate app require some basic knowledge.
Cleaning the Solace Pro is also a doddle. Once mission is complete, you poke your finger in the orifice to pull out the sleeve and then rinse it thoroughly under the tap with soap. TPE dries pretty quick but if you live in a sultry climate then these cleaning and drying tips will help.
Performance overall
Is the Solace Pro worth the upgrade?
Size: It was in part built to tackle the length and girth issue of the first model, so for five or ten bucks more, if you want more of a Fleshlight experience, a thicker, softer, longer ride, then it firstly ticks this box.
Noise: Noise is a factor. Is it louder than the Keon or the Handy though? I’m not sure it is. Their official decibel reading puts them all in a similar ball park, the 50 to 60 dB range at top speed. I’d say on lower thrust levels they are both a bit quieter, but at full whack I think you’re clutching at straws. Some background music definitely helps with these devices.
Lovense Solace Pro going at half-speed (see top 2 green LED’s lit up – 4 in total).
AI: AI syncing is all the rage and like Feelme AI that the Keon uses, this software is also very deft at picking up real-time movements, sharper than the Solace. You have a slight clunky sound when they Solace changes direction, but less so with the Pro, which is almost silent on its return at lower speeds. Depth tracking is better and clear videos with positions like missionary, oral, and cowgirl perform well.
Cost: About the same price as the Keon, Handy or Fleshlght Launch – the three main players, give or take big season discounts, the main difference here is the Solace Pro comes with a case and a sleeve but the Keon and the Fleshlight Launch do not, nor do they include a mount for hands-free play, so you’re spending a further $40-$60 say on top.
Build: The build quality is good. It’s not plasticky or lightweight in any department. The TPE sleeve feels lush and tender. Time will tell how durable it is. Fast at 5 strokes a second or 300 a minute, it has the best battery of its contemporaries, and its AI skills are being developed by a leading sex toy brand, so with regular updates come regular improvements.
Worth it?: I personally loved it. It’s a luscious device and if your partner uses Lovense toys then that would be handy, for ease or pairing. AI-Sync is still learning so there’s room for improvement, but it’s legitimately a good product. A solid device that comes as a complete package – i.e an AI BJ machine, a sleeve in a case, and a mount which is invaluable. Worth the entrance fee.
