The overall texture and softness of TPE are more realistic. The material also behaves like human tissue, moving and vibrating like real body parts. Think of the bounce of your breasts – TPE mimics this very well.
On the other hand, heating a
TPE sex doll (as opposed to a silicone doll) to body temperature for a more realistic experience is very dangerous - you could damage a very expensive doll.
If you want, you can spend your money on a RRS silicone doll, which stands for Realistic Painting/Realistic Skin Texture/Smooth Matte. This gets you closer to a more realistic texture and gives you the opportunity to safely warm up your
sexdoll.
You can wrap the doll in an electric blanket and heat the orifice with a special heating rod. If you're willing to spend a little more money, some silicone dolls are even self-heating.
Some silicone dolls have gel implants in the breasts, bodice and butt for optimal softness and realism. Again, this is usually a premium feature for which you have to pay extra, and after a while, such extra costs add up.
