Lelo Siri Versus Je Joue Mimi


Mimi by Je Joue  VS  Siri  by Lelo



They are both for clitoral stimulation and other external stimulation. They both work wonderfully for back massages and working out the knots.  They work on both males and female erogenous zones.  They both have their pro's and con's.  This is just my opinion of how they both work for me and my thoughts.



The Mimi by Je Joue  3 inches long and 2 inches wide and  ¾ of an inch thick. Mimi resembles a river rock or massage stone.  On the bottom portion of the toy is the  + / ~ / -  buttons.  The plus and minus buttons are raised but the middle ~ button is level with the base  and has to be depressed to change the  vibe patterns.  Press the + button to turn on and to increase the intensity of the vibrations,   press the - button to turn down the vibrations and to turn it  off. The ~ button in the middle is to change the vibration patterns.



The Siri is an oval shape with the silicone and plastic being at a diagonal cut.  It is only  4  1/2 inches long and  2  1/4   inches wide.   It is  1  1/2  inches thick. It does fit perfectly in the palm of my hand and when it is turned upside down so that the controls face downward the shape fits perfectly to my external female parts.  You can use both the silicone end and the plastic end for stimulation.

There are  4 buttons on the Siri, a + button, a - button, an up button and a down button.  To turn it on you push the + button. There really isn't a number for the vibrations.  It seems to just ramp up from a low to a high.  Pressing the up or down button will change the vibration patterns constant, long pulsations, short pulsations, a fast roller coaster, a slower roller coaster, and a chaotic mix of pulses and  vibrations.  Pressing the - button down for several seconds will turn the vibrator off.  The Siri's vibrations rate about a 4 out of 5 on the highest setting.

Neither the Siri  or the Mimi have  a memory, each time you turn it off you restart at the lowest setting.  Mimi always gets complaints about the buttons that they are hard to push and hard to change settings.  Siri has buttons that can get hit inadvertently while in use.

Mimi has a total of  5 vibration  settings from weak to strong and the strongest vibration level is about a 4 out of 5.   Mimi has 5 different patterns. Long pulse, Short pulse, Roller coaster, Fast steady Pulsing, and even faster Pulsing. Mimi is rechargeable with a magnetized charging connection that attaches to the button area.  The magnetized charging is so strong that you can suspend the Mimi by the cord and it will stay connects.
Mimi is completely waterproof and submergeable.  You can take this one to the bath with you.  The motor of the Mimi is centered towards the curved top portion of the toy and the vibrations carry throughout the entire toy.  Siri is not even splash proof, you cannot get this one wet in the control area or the charging port.  The motor on the Siri is also located towards the tip area with the vibrations carrying throughout the entire toy.

While both Mimi and Siri have a similar palm sized shape the Mimi works better for clitoral stimulation with intercourse.  Mimi is flatter and fits better between partners.  Siri, with it's curves  fits better if you want to tuck it in your panties or harness.

Both Mimi and Siri have non porous, hypoallergenic, phthalates and latex free silicone.  Both are actually plastic that is covered in the velvety soft silicone.  Honestly it is hard to tell the silicone apart on them, they both glide across your skin and feel good.

Siri is silicone and plastic and has the seam to contend with when cleaning the toy.

Now I have been told that my Mimi is defective because it has noise when it is turned on.  You can barely hear it over the covers but you can definitely tell that it is on.  Siri is dang near whisper quiet.  Only on the highest setting can a person sitting next to you hear that it is on.

It really comes down to what you are looking for.  A shape that is comfortable with intercourse or more solo play.  Buttons that you can inadvertently hit, or ones that can give you a fit.  So you want that toy to be fully waterproofed or do you mind if you have to be very careful?  Does the combination of the plastic with the seam  or full silicone sound better to you?

The Vibrations are essentially the same and they are both rechargeable.  The price point is very similar also. You can read the full Siri Review

Siri By Lelo


Siri from Lelo

Siri is a perfect sized toy to fit in the palm of your hand.  It is more for external stimulation, it's shape doesn't lend to insertion. But it can be used on your external lady bits.  It works great for back rubs and massages, it works on nipples, scrotum's, and  the backs of knees.  Pretty much all of your and your partner's erogenous zones.  I have also found that you can tuck this one in your harness to add some excitement for the evenings play.







Pro's

Small palm sized
Strong vibrations
Silicone
Rechargeable
Easy to use controls

Con's

Not waterproof
Seam where plastic meets silicone
Secretions can get in buttons
You can inadvertently hit buttons with use


Siri is smooth and soft.  One half of the toy is silicone and the other half is ABS plastic. The silicone  has no drag to it and it doesn't collect any lint or hair.  The Siri is free from odors or tastes.  Both the silicone and plastic are hypoallergenic, non porous, latex and phthalates free.  It is safe to be used between partners as long as it is properly sterilized.

The Siri is an oval shape with the silicone and plastic being at a diagonal cut.  It is only  4  1/2 inches long and  2  1/4   inches wide.   It is  1  1/2  inches thick. It does fit perfectly in the palm of my hand and when it is turned upside down so that the controls face downward the shape fits perfectly to my external female parts.  You can use both the silicone end and the plastic end for stimulation.  The motor is centered in the tip area of the silicone end and the vibrations do carry through the plastic also.

There are 4 buttons on the Siri, a + button, a - button, an up button and a down button.  To turn it on you push the + button. There really isn't a number for the vibrations.  It seems to just ramp up from a low to a high.  Pressing the up or down button will change the vibration patterns constant, long pulsations, short pulsations, a fast roller coaster, a slower roller coaster, and a chaotic mix of pulses and  vibrations.  Pressing the - button down for several seconds will turn the vibrator off.  The Siri doesn't have a memory, each time you turn it off you restart at the lowest setting.


The Siri's buttons light up when in use and when charging.  It takes approximately 2 hours to charge for about 2 hours of use at the highest setting.  Siri is actually really quiet, it definitely cannot be heard over the covers.  The vibrations are more rumbly than buzzy.  I would say that these vibrations fall at a high 3 to 4 level out of 5.


The drawback comes when you try to clean Siri, it is not water proof and it is not splash proof.  You have to pay attention to the charging port, the button and then you need to get the seam clean.   I have found that the fingernails and the toy wipes work the best.  You can use antibacterial soaps and water but you would be better off to have it on a moist wash cloth, you definitely don't want to place this one under running water.  You can also carefully spray it with your toy sprays.  You can wipe it down with a 10% bleach solution.

Siri comes with the same packaging as all the Lelo products.  The outer box with a picture of the product, an inner black box with a lift off lid.  Inside the box is the toy, the charger and a product booklet.  It does come with a warranty.

The Siri is a strong, rechargeable toy that works really great.  It is much more rumbly than the Nea by Lelo.  It is very, very similar in vibrations when compared to Mimi, but the  Mimi is also louder.  But the pain is the cleaning of the Siri and the fact that it is not water proof.
