Review date: April 2023
Himeros takes its name from the Greek god of sexual desire, and bills itself as "gay porn, reimagined." The site offers an interesting mix of content that you don't normally find on other porn sites. Yes, you will get your fill of hot models in hardcore action, but the site also features videos artfully shot and experimental in nature, often exploring serious themes like spirituality and body image. You'll get off, and you may also broaden your mind about sex and sexuality in the process.
Even though it was created by social media star Davey Wavey, he doesn't appear naked in any of the hardcore content, though he does feature heavily in the non x-rated promotional material.
Tour
To check out the content of Himeros, bypass the pop-up offer for a free video and click "Take me to the tour." From there you can browse the entire library of videos and watch several free preview clips before you make your decision.
Usability
The Himeros design is responsive, attractive and easy to use. The homepage serves up a selection of the most recent and popular videos and models. The "Videos" and "Models" sections are sortable by recency, popularity or alphabetically. The "Collections" area brings together many of the videos by thematic series.
There is a general search option in the menu, and each scene includes related tags and model links.
The Men and the Action
You will find many of your favorite porn stars on the site, from Alex Mecum to Calvin Blanks to Dillon Diaz, some of the top players in the biz today. Added to the mix, though, are more average Joes; men of various ages -- from 20 to 60+ -- with more relatable body types; many are new to porn and can only be found on Himeros.
The action includes everything from solo jerk-offs, toys, blowjobs, flip-flops, intergenerational action, groups and lots of bareback fucking. The men are eager and passionate, and seem to be really enjoying the action.
There is always a theme to the videos and it's amazing how many twists to gay sex there can be! While many of the videos are straight up sex, what makes the site different is that some have a more educational slant, with helpful tips on sexual techniques.
Video Details
Most of the videos are well shot in HD quality, offering multiple angles and close-ups. Sometimes the director tries to be overly artistic, failing to capture the hardcore elements of the scene for shots of faces or backs. At least you do get to see the cum shot!
The site sometimes uses a handheld camera for its shoots; this results in shaky scenes, blurred images, and odd angles.
There are over 330 videos on Himeros, with a new one added weekly. They average about 15 minutes each.
Videos are available to download in several quality choices, maxing at 1920x1080 pixels (8000 kbps). The in-browser streams are available at the same qualities and will resize according to your browser, with a maximum size of about 1170x650 pixels; from there you can toggle to full screen.
Screens: The site is fully responsive and works well with smaller and larger devices.
Image and Other Content
Each video includes an image set of around 100 fair quality screen captures, either 1280x720 or 1920x1080 pixels. You can download a zip file or watch in hands-free slide show mode.
Himeros offers additional content in the "Backstage" area in the form of hour-long weekly video podcasts. Each episode explores the most recent video release, current issues about sexuality and feedback from the audience. It offers a perspective on the industry you seldom see.
Summing Up
Himeros offers a fresh take on gay porn, with its creative approach to hardcore action.
