Public Wi-Fi at airports, hotels, and cafés is a fact of travel life — and a significant security risk. A VPN encrypts your connection, protects your data, and lets you access content from home. But VPN marketing is notoriously exaggerated.
We test VPNs on: connection speed (download/upload), streaming access (Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Disney+), connection reliability, server coverage, mobile app quality, and value for money. Tests conducted across multiple countries and connection types.
