74 Phoenixxx Review [visit now]

Review date: September 2022

Phoenixxx is a network of twelve sites, each with a distinct theme, but often pairing masculine studs with young and slender bottoms; these include "PhoeniXXX," "My Gay Boss," "Bonus Hunks," "Bonus Twinks," "Boys That Gagged," "Hard Issues," "My Gay Tips," "My Husband Is Gay," "Bang Me Sugar Daddy," "I'm Your Boy Toy," "Phoenixxx Bonus" and "Phoenixxx Twinks." Though the updates appear to be consistent, it appears that even "PhoeniXXX" updates are mostly recycled.

Tour

The Phoenixxx tour is very generous, offering clips for about half of the videos on the actual site. But clicking "Models" or "Videos" on the main menu bar will take you to the sign-up page rather than the index you were expecting.

When you sign up, be aware that the trial membership is very limited: only 3 - 4 scenes. Technically they do tell you this, but it is in small gray text on a black background and very easy to miss.

Usability

This is a network of twelve sites, and all the content can be accessed by mousing over the "Explore" button on the top navigation bar. The button for "Sites" takes you to a page where the latest updates can be viewed by site, while the "Models" index delivers you to model profiles that are cross-referenced with his videos. An Advanced Search feature has been added so you can search by site, by models, by category, or by a combination of all three, for a more refined search.

You can personalize the selection of videos at Phoenixxx, such as marking a scene as a favorite or assigning ratings to scenes and later pulling up your top rated ones. You can also display the indexes in a basic thumbnail or a "detailed profile" format. A nice feature is the "Playlists," which take favorites a step further: you can take any streaming video, dictate a start and stop time and then add it to a Playlist -- so you can bookmark not just your favorite videos, but your favorite moments in the videos.

Clicking "Discounts," "Live Cams" and "Hookup Now" on the menu leads to content that is not included in your membership.

The Men and the Action

While there are a few sites following themes, the network also releases videos under the generic "Phoenixxx" brand. There are over 1,222 videos in total, with updates two to three times a week. However, 202 of these videos are short interviews with no sexual content.

Video counts for the content areas in the network are as follows:

Phoenixxx (203 videos) masculine guys in hardcore action videos.

Phoenixxx Twinks (68 videos) focuses on well-toned twinks, not being updated.

My Gay Boss (65+ videos) in which an employee has sex with his boss.

Boys That Gagged (20 videos) featuring blowjobs, not being updated.

Hard Issues (21 videos) of men needing to jerk off, not being updated.

My gay Sex Tips (19 videos) with mostly amateur action, not being updated.

My Husband is Gay (58 videos), in which a supposedly straight married guy gets it on with another man; no longer updated.

Bang Me Sugar Daddy (96 videos) features older, younger pairings.

I'm Your Boy Toy (82+ videos) has a similar set-up to Bang Me.

Bonus Videos Bonus Hunks has 221 videos; Bonus Twinks has 86 videos; and Pheonixx Bonus has 201. Many are recycled, older videos.

While there are exceptions, most of the models on the sites are either masculine and muscular with some body hair; or young, slender and smooth. If you're looking for collegiate types, you won't find that many here. Each scene has a text description and there are a fair number of videos that are model interviews, with no sex. As well, in the model index there's a profile including stats and a description of the guy's hottest characteristics.

Video Details

The viewing quality of the videos is somewhat mixed, though truly new material is excellent. These scenes are sharp and well-lit, with a decent range of medium and close-up shots and camera angles throughout. Still, these are one camera shoots and there are always limitations when using just one camera.

Some newly added videos are simply recycled scenes which were released several years ago; the quality is often lower than freshly shot scenes.

At review date there are over 1222 videos in the Phoenixxx network, with about two to three updates every week. However, many of these updates are listed under one of the other sites, most of which appear to be older, previously released material.

Image and Other Content

Each of the sex scenes includes an image gallery of about fifty good-sized (1000x700 pixel) digital photos; they can be downloaded as a zip file or browsed in slideshow mode. There are no image galleries to accompany the interviews.

Summing Up

The Phoenixxx network is a great place to find masculine guys paired with younger, smooth bottom boys. But not all "new" material is really new; many of the updates are older, recycled scenes and it's just "Phoenixxx" that updates anymore. There are lots of navigational bells and whistles but ignore the upsells inside the members area and skip the very limited trial.

30 day: $24.95 (rebills @ $24.95)

3 day: $1.95 (limited trial) (rebills @ $24.95)

Trial limited to four scenes.
