So the other commenter has all the good deets on the silicone. They don't advertise the raised charger nipple thing, it's just a trait of the 1.5mm jack construction.
As for design, these classic style corded eggs are pretty fantastic, especially for under clothes use. One of the consistent features we found was that they're notably gerthier than you expect from the image, this makes for consistent pressure but can be uncomfortable if you're not used to the size.
Another worthwhile note is g spot vibrators. For those not in the know who may be reading, the g spot is a spongey nerve cluster near the inside of the pelvic bone along the roof of the vagina. While it differs between individuals, the majority of women report lackluster results from g spot vibrations with best results from repeated pulsing squishes. If you know for sure that you're into g spot vibration, go for it, but if you don't know then don't be discouraged if it doesn't feel like it's working. On that note, the girth of the corded eggs can play to the benefit as shiftin the hips and engaging the pelvic floor can stimulate the g spot. My understanding is it takes some practice, but isn't difficult.
more questions about the corded, double egg vibrator and c-shaped vibrators like this one
I've only seen online pictures, but it seems the c shaped toys are completely enclosed in a silicone coating, with no fissures whereas the corded one has visible lines where the different parts assembly as in the picture attached, next to the bullets.
Isn't that dangerous and unhygienic? The c-shaped toy seems a more hygienic alternative.
Intended use is vaginal and anal. This toy doesn't have a base but it's long, so I can simply pull the cord, or will it break?
In the lot we tested, most of those seams were just junctions in the mould used to coat them and didn't actually have any depth. They may take a little extra attention while scrubbing but they weren't deep enough to be a hazard. Also most had some form of sturdy cordage inside the silicone cord to reinforce the wires in the case of pulling.
In one particular case, my ~55kg tester hung one of the sturdier models from a pull up bar and picked herself up with it. There were also a lot if nunchuck stunts lol. While most won't hold up to that level of stress, they're more than adequate for the grip strength of human orifices. A caveat to that, if you're worried about size or ease of retrieval anally you can start with guaging plugs. Similar to normal butt plugs they come in sets of 3-12 and have progressively wider diameters. This aclimated the body to a wider stretch.
For those with worries about anal incontinence from guaging, understand that the human anal muscles engage in both directions. So long as you're giving your body time to aclimate to the new size, you will actually gain muscle control and strength from this process. When pared with regular kegal exercises it can make a huge difference, especially for people advancing in age.
