We-Vibe has launched Shared Touch, a new dual-sided vibrator designed for couples, which combines a ridged stroker for the penis with a curved vibrating tip for clitoral stimulation. The device, introduced on September 22, 2026, aims to enhance foreplay and shared experiences.
Product Design and Features
The Shared Touch vibrator is designed to stimulate both partners simultaneously. It features a ridged stroker for the penis and a curved vibrating tip for clitoral stimulation. This design allows for shared sensation during grinding and close body-to-body movement. A We-Vibe representative stated that the device is intended to "bring more play, creativity and connection to foreplay" and "add to familiar routines by giving partners more ways to slow down, stay close and explore together."
The device offers 10 intensity levels and eight vibration patterns, which couples can adjust. The vibration patterns include Vibrate, Pulse, Wave, Cha-cha, Tease, Ramp, Tempo, and Massage. Control is available through two plus and minus vibration intensity buttons on the device, as well as a third button to cycle through patterns. The Shared Touch can also connect to the We-Vibe App, enabling remote control, custom vibrations, and music- and ambient-responsive modes. The app also allows for remote sex toy syncing with a partner. The device includes a locked travel mode to prevent accidental activation.
Crafted from body-safe silicone, the Shared Touch is certified waterproof IPX7 and is USB rechargeable. It is available in purple and black. The device is 13.8 centimeters in length and can be used for up to one hour. It is powered by a motor designed for mutual play, creating deep, rumbly vibrations and synchronized sensations. The product is described as smooth, comfortable, and easy to clean. We-Vibe offers free shipping, a two-year warranty, discreet packaging, and a 100-day pleasure guarantee.
The Shared Touch is priced at £109 ($129) in the UK and $129 USD and $139 CAD in North America. It marks an evolution from the company’s Touch X vibrator, which was also designed to be "slipped between partners." Unlike the Touch X, the Shared Touch features a flexible open ribbed sleeve-like section for the penis to rub against, with the other side providing a gently curved section for clitoral stimulation. While many couples vibrators feature cock ring-style designs, such as We-Vibe’s Pivot 2 and Verge 2 devices, the Shared Touch utilizes a single pad that sits between partners, offering dedicated surfaces for each.
Foreplay Trends and Product Philosophy
The introduction of Shared Touch aligns with observed trends regarding foreplay. A recent We-Vibe survey indicated that 40 percent of respondents reported foreplay typically lasting less than nine minutes, while 46 percent wished it lasted longer. The survey also found that when foreplay extended beyond the usual duration, 77 percent reported greater anticipation and excitement, 67 percent felt a stronger sensual connection, and 60 percent noted a more intense overall sexual experience.
Among those who assessed the impact on orgasm, 86.5 percent of women and 77.2 percent of men stated that longer foreplay improved it to some degree. Additionally, 91 percent agreed that it fostered a stronger connection with their partner. A We-Vibe representative commented on these findings, suggesting that "better sex does not always require a completely new routine; sometimes it starts with spending more time enjoying what already works." The representative added that Shared Touch "is reframing foreplay not simply as a prelude, but as a shared experience in its own right: One that can be more creative, more connected and more satisfying."
