Quick answer
Choose the Varex for partner play and powerful wired control, or the NOVA Solaris for a slim, discreet solo experience with strong vibrations.
Design and feel: Slim vs. tapered plug
The NOVA Solaris features a streamlined, elongated shape with a secure base, making it ideal for users who prefer a slimmer profile without sacrificing power. Its soft body-safe silicone ensures comfort during extended use.
The Varex uses a tapered silicone plug designed for easy insertion, especially suited for experienced prostate players. The plug shape provides a fuller sensation once inserted, which some users prefer for targeted stimulation.
Control and power: Wired remote vs. rechargeable
The Varex stands out with its wired remote design, giving extra power and control to a partner during play. This makes it a strong choice for couples who want shared control over intensity and patterns.
The NOVA Solaris is fully rechargeable with a 70-minute charge time for 1 hour of run time, offering 16 powerful vibration settings in a discreet package. Its wireless design is better for solo use or travel.
