NordVPN Review
The best all-round VPN
Our Verdict
The fastest VPN we tested thanks to its NordLynx protocol, with a huge server network, independently audited no-logs policy, and rock-solid streaming support.
NordVPN takes our top spot by being excellent at everything. Its NordLynx protocol delivered the fastest speeds in our testing, and its server network is vast and reliable.
Privacy is a genuine strength: the no-logs policy has been independently audited multiple times, and extras like Threat Protection, Double VPN, and a dedicated-IP option add real value.
It reliably unblocks Netflix, Disney+, and other services, and apps are available for every platform. The only real downsides are a pricey month-to-month plan and a feature-packed interface.

- Independently audited no-logs policy
