Streamen vs Supermen updated June 28, 2023, by David.
In my previous top 7 gay webcam site list, I reviewed and compared the best gay chat sites. Based on that list, Chaturbate.com was our highest-rated site (read our Chaturbate review).
However, for today’s entry, I wanted to focus on two different sites: Streamen.com and Supermen.com. If you’ve been perving out on gay webcam sites as I have, you may already be familiar with some of these top-rated gay webcam model sites.
So, here is my Streamen vs Supermen site comparison without further ado.
Introduction to Streamen
Streamen (review) provides a variety of amateurs, exhibitionists, and gay porn stars from various countries worldwide, not just in North America. We have also earlier compared Camera Boys to Streamen and also the trans cams My Tranny Cams vs Chaturbate.
It’s either free chat, low-cost pay-per-minute, or ridiculously high prices depending on the model (more on later). There are at least 100 models online at any time, showcasing them in a modern-looking theme compatible with any device.
To quickly narrow your gay webcam searches, you can use the category list on the left sidebar, taking you to the hottest athletic studs, BDSM fetish models, big cock masturbators, and dozens more. There are both free chat and paid options, so it doesn’t necessarily have to put a dent in your bank account.
Introduction to Supermen
Supermen (review) comes from the same company that brought you Im Live Gay (review). The models are a step up compared to Streamen, with barely any average-looking guys. Unfortunately, the selection isn’t as great.
There are Twinks, gay-for-pay straight dudes, and a free credit sign-up offer for new members. As you’d expect, the site is optimized for any device including mobile phones.
Regardless if you’re looking for a young twink or hairy mature, I’m sure you’ll appreciate the slick design and free chat males. There are white guys, gay couples, and a ‘New Models’ section at lower pay-per-minute rates.
First Impression
In a lot of ways, Streamen and Supermen are rather similar. When you visit the home pages, you’re greeted by sexy gays and straight guys earning a living by flirting and masturbating for you. Of course, the hardcore stuff is reserved for paying members only. (If you’re only interested in free gay webcam shows, visit our Chaturbate Review).
I prefer the profile images on Streamen as they provide the country where the gay webcam model is performing from. On Supermen, you must enter their profile page to learn more about them, including their spoken language(s) and country. It’s not a big deal, but it is an unnecessary step.
However, I favor the larger Supermen images, which are actual high-quality photo shoots, instead of just screen, captures on Streamen. I’m not sure what their hiring process is like, but nearly all the guys on Supermen are hunks.
Advantage: Streamen
Free Chat Features
The first thing you’ll want to do after visiting either site is to test out the free chat rooms. You’ll need to create a free account that only takes a minute. You can still enter the rooms without registering, but the text chat window will be blocked.
Once logged into Streamen, you can partake in the free non-nude gay chat rooms. I say “non-nude,” but the guys often wear skimpy underwear without tops. It all depends on the guy you’re viewing.
The chat features of Streamen include options to save your messages, change the video size to full screen, and view a “Gold Menu,” which describes their Gold Shows.
It’s similar to Supermen, but there are fewer options here. There’s only one screen size, and the rooms are often nearly empty, with only one or two other guests. The videos stream flawlessly, though, which I appreciate.
Like Streamen, Supermen gives you various text sizes and emoticons, but microphones and cam-2-cam options are reserved for premium members only.
Advantage: Streamen
Premium Features
I’ll start with the most popular feature of Streamen: the Gold Shows. Essentially, this is a type of group sex chat, oftentimes with dozens of live cam viewers. The model will set a specific goal (for example, if he gets 100 gold coins in tips, he’ll then do an anal show), and once the goal is reached, anyone who tipped the model gets to partake in the hardcore show.
Over half of Streamen users enjoy the site because of these gold shows. It works out to maybe $10 per show, which is great value compared to some of our other Top 10 gay webcam sites.
Of course, there’s always the option to go private. You have more control over what happens here since you call the shots. You can become your porn director or pass the time flirting, as many dudes will provide you with the boyfriend experience.
There are no Gold Shows on Supermen, but instead, there’s a ‘Happy Hour’ option where models give discounted shows. It costs about $1 per minute, so that you can save a lot of money in the long run.
You can also control a vibrating dildo. There are different credit packages for this. For example, 4 seconds of vibration for 3 credits. I guess it’s an interesting concept, but it seems better suited for live females.
Advantage: Streamen
Webcam Video Quality
For video quality, I tested the free chat rooms on both sites. What I found was an overall better quality of Superman. The videos seemed sharper and smoother, but it’ll depend on the chosen model.
One thing to consider about webcam quality is that some guys perform from developing countries where the internet isn’t so fast. This results in choppy video feeds. But oftentimes, these guys give shows at lower prices.
I couldn’t find any “HD” tags or categories to find the better quality streams, so perhaps that’s something that both companies should consider adding at some point.
Advantage: Supermen.
Number of Gay Webcam Models
I counted 200 online gay webcams on Streamen and only 50 on Supermen. However, I should point out that I’m reviewing this site in the early hours of the day, so if you’re visiting in the evening or nighttime, you can expect a better selection.
As for categories, niche-specific models such as bears, bisexuals, Blacks, and Asians can be found on the left sidebar of Streamen. Whereas on Supermen, the list is shorter and appears on the top. You won’t even need it, though, since all the models fit on the same page at Supermen.
Advantage: Streamen
Site Usability
As you’d expect with the best gay webcam sites, both are compatible with any device. It’s a cinch to browse on mobile, with the chat window automatically fitting your screen size. So no complaints in terms of mobile compatibility.
As for viewing options, Streamen allows you to change the size of the images on the main profile page, allowing either more models to appear on each page or larger images for a preferred visual result.
Supermen don’t have multiple viewing options, but a drop-down menu in the top-right corner summarizes all categories into Age, Ethnicity, Body Type, Role, and Fetishes sub-categories. This works fine, and there’s no need for additional search tools.
Advantage: Tie
Value For Money
We all know that live gay webcam chat isn’t cheap, right? Well, don’t be so sure. There are always low-cost options available if you’re willing to spend the time to look for them.
On average, you can expect to pay about $2/min on both sites. But Streamen seems to have higher-end models closer to $5/min, with some models charging $10/min! In my view, the guy better be damn fucking good at giving live sex shows for that price.
Currently, Supermen is offering 15 Free Credits for joining. It’s just enough to test the private show features, but at least they give you something. At Streamen, joining only gives you access to the free chat rooms, but nothing too hardcore.
Advantage: Supermen
Streaman vs Supermen Conclusion
Although you’ll find some hot male webcam models on both sites, if I had to choose only one, I’d go with Streamen.com, mainly because there are way more models. You end up paying about the same for private shows on both sites, and there are always free chat options.
