Sohimi Bole Review: Two-in-One Penis Pump and Masturbator
The Sohimi Bole is a two-in-one device that combines a penis pump with a powered masturbator — suction, rotation, and vibration in a single rechargeable unit. It’s built for solo use, but the app control opens it up to partnered play in ways worth knowing about.
Here’s the honest breakdown of what it does and whether it’s worth it.

First impressions
The Bole is discreet — compact enough to keep in a drawer without it being obvious what it is. The build quality is solid, and the design is more considered than most male toys at this price point. Inside, there’s a removable silicone sleeve with internal texture and a small tongue-shaped stimulator at the end that targets the frenulum during use.
Seven modes across vibration, suction, and rotation means there’s genuine variety here rather than incremental intensity settings on a single sensation. That distinction matters in practice — different modes feel qualitatively different, not just stronger or weaker.
Key features
Two-in-one pump and masturbator: The pump function draws blood into the shaft, producing temporary engorgement. The masturbator function — rotation, suction, and vibration — delivers active stimulation. Both work independently or together.
Seven modes: Four buttons control on/off, spin, suction, and mode cycling. The range covers gentle rotation through to stronger combined patterns. Adjustable speed within each mode allows you to calibrate to what works in the moment.
App controlled: The Sohimi app connects via Bluetooth. Your partner can control intensity and mode remotely — same room or at a distance. This is the feature that shifts it from a solo toy into something with genuine partnered utility, particularly when desire levels differ or when she’s participating without being physically involved.
Rechargeable and waterproof: USB charging via a waterproof flap. Shower and bath use is supported — keep the motor unit above water. The sleeve is fully removable for cleaning: remove, rinse with warm water, air dry. Low maintenance.
Where it fits in practice
Solo use: The combination of sensations is the primary draw here. Standard masturbation delivers friction; the Bole delivers rotation, suction, and vibration simultaneously across the shaft and frenulum. Most men find the sensation qualitatively different from anything manual — not just more intense, but a different type of stimulation entirely. It works particularly well as a stamina training tool: the variety of modes means you can use it for extended edging practice, building arousal to different levels and backing off, which develops the arousal control that transfers directly to partnered sex.
Partnered use — app control: The most practically useful partnered scenario is when desire levels differ. She controls the app; you’re both involved in the experience without requiring her to be physically engaged in the way full sex would. This is a genuine solution to the tension point many couples hit when one partner wants connection but the other isn’t up for sex — it creates participation without pressure. The dynamic of her controlling what you feel, from her phone, is also worth experiencing in its own right.
Stamina training: Like the Sohimi Trueform, the Bole works well as a deliberate practice tool. Regular use at higher intensity, combined with edging practice, builds tolerance and arousal control over time. This isn’t a passive benefit — it requires intentional use. For a structured approach to this kind of solo practice, Riding Solo provides the framework that makes the solo work genuinely productive.
Looking for an app-controlled solo toy with a different stimulation profile?
The Lovense Solace Pro is worth comparing — an AI-powered male masturbator that adapts to your movement patterns. Different mechanism, similar remote-control capability. Both are worth knowing about depending on what you’re looking for.
Verdict
The Sohimi Bole delivers on its core premise. The two-in-one design isn’t a gimmick — the pump and masturbator functions work independently and together, and the seven-mode range provides enough variety to keep the experience from becoming routine. Build quality is solid at this price point.
The app control is the standout feature for men in relationships where desire discrepancy is a factor. It turns what could be a solo experience into something participatory — which matters when the goal is connection, not just physical release.

Frequently asked questions
What does a penis pump actually do?
A penis pump creates suction around the shaft, drawing blood into the erectile tissue and producing temporary engorgement. In the short term this increases sensitivity and firmness. For men with mild erectile difficulties, regular pump use can support blood flow to the tissue over time. The Bole combines this pump function with active motorised stimulation, so the suction serves both purposes simultaneously rather than being a purely passive device.
Is the app control reliable?
The Sohimi app connects via Bluetooth and works reliably for same-room use. Remote control over distance requires both devices to be connected to the app — it functions more like a remote interface than a direct Bluetooth connection at range. For long-distance use specifically, verify connection stability with your app version before relying on it.
How does this compare to a standard masturbator?
The primary difference is active stimulation versus passive sleeve. A standard masturbator provides texture and friction from your own movement. The Bole provides rotation, suction, and vibration independently of how much you move — hands-free if you choose. The sensation profile is different enough that men who’ve used both consistently describe them as complementary rather than interchangeable.
Can it genuinely help with stamina?
Used deliberately — building arousal to a high level and backing off, repeatedly — yes. The mechanism is the same as deliberate edging practice: you develop familiarity with your arousal arc and build tolerance for sustained stimulation at high intensity. The key word is deliberately. Passive use doesn’t build this capacity; intentional edging sessions do. Used consistently over several weeks, most men notice measurable improvement in arousal control during partnered sex.
