| Pros: |
- One of, if not the, top lesbian sites on the internet.
- Over 750 models, 1,558 videos, every video has accompanying photo set/screencaps that are downloadable.
- Roughly 3 updates a week.
- Older content has tons of scenes of the top-tier Euro models from the 2005-08 time period. Great for collectors of those models.
- Was the first site I saw with "tribbing" and there's quite a bit of it, it's one of my favorite parts of the lesbian porn. Also lots of kissing.
- A little confusion on how long they've had 1080p, it looks like they've started remastering the older videos, randomly, so there's some 1080p, then a newer one won't be 1080p, but it looks like they are all 1080p starting in 2006. Will go into that in BL.
- Good download speeds and navigation but will also go into navigation problem that might not be a problem for some.
- TBP/PU price is very good.
- Photo quality is good, but not great.
- A rare one these days, no ads in the member area! |
| Cons: |
- There was several of these sites that were using the same "naming" system for Euro models and Sapphic Erotica still uses it. What this means is if you knew a model by a certain name there's a chance she won't be named the same here. The most obvious one for me that shows how confusing it can be is Eve Angel. I would think she's one of the best known Euro models. Her name on here is ... Daphne. I've seen her name as Eve, Eva, Evie, but Daphne is only used on this site and a few others also managed by the company who manages Sapphic Erotica.
- Like any porn that focuses on one genre, it can become boring.
- Some of the old videos that say they are HD 1080p, look like someone has taken an old video and upscaled it improperly as they're not as clear as the newer 1080p videos. Also had several videos to "fail" during download. |
| Bottom Line: |
A bit of a mixed bag. I really do believe Sapphic does lesbian porn as good as anyone. At least for me and I'm of course, a male, who knows very little about real lesbian sex. So, lets put it this way, they do lesbian porn in a way that is directed at men. Not to say women and lesbians won't like it, but it's very similar to Viv Thomas' way of shooting lesbian porn. There's lots of kissing, focusing on the womens bodies, the action including tribbing is very good. I have a friend who is a lesbian that tells me tribbing is nothing more than the creation of a dirty man's fantasy and I tell her that's fine. It works.
I didn't score Sapphic as high as I thought I would. I've had numerous errors in downloads of older videos. I used to join this site 3-4 times a year and have a large back collection of thier content. When I saw the older videos showing up as HD, I downloaded them since I already have them, but mine are lower quality. As I said in cons, I am only assuming they've done some kind of upscaling to those source videos and it shows. While the videos are 1080p, they look stretched and blurry. Those are also the ones I'm getting the most errors on when downloading.
With that complaint out of the way, the newer content is still very good, the videos, dating back to 2007 or so are crystal clear 1080p. Anything before then is hit or miss.
I don't know if they've changed the way they do pictures, but a lot of the pictures are just screencaps from the videos. I know some of their old sets came with a video/photo set that wasn't spot-on identical.
The alias problem has always been a big problem for me since I am/was a collector of Euro models. Some of the models don't have aliases like Peaches, but most of the other well-known ones do. I've had long discussions/arguments with webmasters about this for over 10 years. They tell me they use the name the model on her release paper. Other people with knowledge of the behind the scenes work in porn have chimed in and said that's not true. That the sites originally did it to make a model "seem exclusive" to their site or to claim some kind of exclusivity to the model being on their site.
Sounds like a lot wrong with the site, but really it's not. The site works well, downloading is easy, clean interface and the action really is probably as close as we're going to get to real lesbian sex. It's very passionate, very believable and on top of that, nearly every model is very pretty/attractive.
I would recommend it for anyone into lesbian porn, at least as a one-time join, just to get the older videos which were some of the best porn I've ever seen. |
