Five independent test origins. Select a location to explore how many quality-checked measurements came from that worker.
Compare VPNs before you commit
NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Surfshark, CyberGhost or Mullvad? Put two services side by side, explore independent VPN speed test results and see how your choice changes for gaming, streaming or large downloads. No one-size-fits-all winner.
NordVPN vs ExpressVPN
NordLynx vs Lightway: explore paired speed results, practical differences and a ranking shaped by your priorities.
NordVPN vs Surfshark
Two popular choices, tested on shared VPN exits. Compare speed retention, downloads and day-to-day fit.
ExpressVPN vs Surfshark
Lightway meets WireGuard. See quality-checked performance and choose what matters to your connection.
NordVPN vs CyberGhost
Compare matched download results and performance consistency without relying on marketing claims.
ExpressVPN vs CyberGhost
A closer look at Lightway and WireGuard across common test origins and available exits.
NordVPN vs Mullvad
Explore speed evidence alongside the privacy and device considerations that can change your decision.
Surfshark vs Mullvad
Two WireGuard-based options. Compare measured conditions, then weigh privacy and everyday features.
ExpressVPN vs Mullvad
Lightway UDP vs WireGuard: explore independent, matched VPN speed tests and see where latency data is available before you choose.
Surfshark vs CyberGhost
Compare Surfshark and CyberGhost using shared test regions, quality-checked downloads and activity-based rankings for streaming, gaming and more.
CyberGhost vs Mullvad
Explore WireGuard speed evidence in comparable conditions, then weigh privacy, ease of use and the VPN exit locations that matter to you.
Every comparison uses the selected test source and time window. Missing quality-checked measurements are never treated as a win.
Explore VPN speed, one click at a time
Choose a VPN, reveal its measured protocols, then see the quality-checked benchmark at your selected independent test source.
How is speed kept calculated? For each eligible test: download speed with VPN (Mbps) ÷ baseline download speed without VPN (Mbps) × 100. The percentage displayed is the published, quality-checked aggregate for the selected VPN, protocol and test source, not your personal speed. Valid samples counts accepted measurements. Exit locations and time can change the result.
Protocol race
Compare real provider and protocol performance over time, from the same test source.
Each line represents one provider–protocol combination measured at the selected test source. Missing data is not estimated.
Reliable data you can trust
All tests are conducted using the same methodology, on real connections, with transparent results. We do not accept payment for higher rankings and test all providers under the same conditions.
Providers tested using consistent setup and locations.
Automated checks and manual validation for accurate results.
No paid placements. Just data.
