[See the review of Next Door Pass for a description of other sites included with Next Door Buddies.]

Next Door Buddies puts the bisexual amateur studs from Next Door Male together for hot sessions of sucking, fucking, groups, and toys. As part of the deal that comes with your Next Door World membership, NDB has guys meeting, greeting and grinding in all sorts of situations. There are definitely times when these mostly straight amateurs look a bit gay-for-pay, but they persist and give good performances. Over 100 of the 330 videos have been filmed in high-definition and there are numerous video options, including excellent quality high-def MP4 downloads.

Tour

Next Door Buddies' homepage is a good start if you're looking for a revealing tour. Click on one of the large images on this page to go an episode description and a great looking one minute clip. There was an issue, though, in that most of the older clips did not play -- they just went to a blank screen.

Usability

Next Door Buddies has an attractive design, though with perhaps a bit too much going on. The members' home page starts you off with the most recent episodes. Click "Movies" or "Photosets" to get to the content indexes. You can sort by most recent or highest rated videos or narrow your search by category, actor or specific episode number.

The Men and the Action

Next Door Studios is famous for discovering and showcasing some very hot masculine amateurs. And it's a thrill when guys who started out with a nervous solo come back to experiment with sucking dick and then go on to be powerful tops or power bottoms. As a member, you'll see a lot of this progression at Next Door Buddies, which is populated with a choice crew of 19-30 year old guys. Almost all of them are lean and muscular, many are very handsome, and almost all identify as "straight".

Duo sessions predominate at NDB and usually consist of an encounter indoors on a bed or a couch. Activities include kissing, sucking, fucking, rimming and dildo play. There's even a hot double penetration dildo session. What are the odds: two straight amateur bottoms in one room?

Video Details

Playback quality for the most recent one-third of videos, filmed in HD, is excellent (and stunning for the most recent 15%); older ones are still good quality. Consistently there is excellent light, clear sound, and a nice range of camera angles, close-ups, medium shots and model poses. The all-important cumshots are almost all there.

At review time there were 329 video episodes, averaging 13 minutes in length mostly duos and a few solos. The site is updated weekly and there's no DRM.

Image and Other Content

There are almost 310 image galleries, averaging 35 images, the majority of which are digital pictures, with a few video captures thrown in. The lighting and poses in these images is definitely above average.

Summing Up

The exclusive content and good looking amateur guys paired up at Next Door Buddies will appeal to those who like hot, bisexual guys aged 19-30 who don't try to act like porn stars. A little over 30% of the videos are filmed in high-definition, with the most recent available at an astounding 7 Mbps, 1920x1080p. Add in the fact that there's no DRM and access to loads of bonus sites at Next Door Word, and Next Door Buddies is definitely a good bet.
