Proton VPN Review

"You could always go for ProtonVPN, that is a pretty good option and is much faster as well. They do have a free plan, however you don't choose the servers and it's only for 1 device. But it's one of the most secure VPN's out there (besides ..."

"... to peer file sharing, it has been valuable. You missed all the Black Friday sales for VPNs. I use proton vpn free on my phone, I have a different paid one that works better on my computer. The speed slowdown is minimal on my phone and non..."

"Just got back from Chengdu and Chongqing. Read on a lot of threads that Proton VPN wasn't working in China, NordVPN did the job. Took a 30 days free VPN for the holiday... NordVPN didn't allow me to connect to any server. Funny enough Proto..."

"I’ve never had an issue with the speed of proton even when going. From Belgium into Switzerland. Streaming is great. You do have an option for fasts connections but I have never found the need to use thst feature."

"Regardless of wether you stream or not proton hasn't been slow in my case(I do understand that varies for some users), I get my full 1000mbps connection just fine with it. Now as far as locations go sure I can see wanting one with servers i..."

"Currently in China and I’m having no issues at all with Proton. Just pressed fastest country and connected straight away to a Singapore server."

"I use proton free and have no issues at all. On android box you do get a few locations to actually choose. On my phone I don't, not sure why, guess a different version. "

"Proton also announced they will be releasing more 100gb vpn servers , only one available now is in Amsterdam but after they roll that out more widely , congestion in some areas should drastically decrease. Speeds are already very good in mo..."

"Mullvad for everything but streaming, proton works well streaming with fast servers mostly but it works and there’s a lot to choose from. Free service for select servers paid us where it’s at"

"ProtonVPN (USA server - free version) and Bitdefender (Argentina & USA servers) are not being blocked in hidive.com/login ExpressVPN (USA server) is getting blocked, though. Weird..."

"ProtonVPN is best for free use, but their servers are selected randomly. You can also try CopVPN; their free version provides 7 locations, and you can easily change it."

"...VPN you really need to pay for it (though there are good mail options around $1 a month). Free tier Proton VPN is slower and you can't choose your server. The free email is oversensitive about the bots issue and you won't get much support (..."

"I have been using ProtonVPN for months and speeds have been mostly stable for me, especially on nearby servers. Support answered once within a day, so I would not say it completely fell off, but results probably depend on location."

"This reads like astroturfing. Regardless though, Witopia is incredibly overpriced for the service they offer and I have frankly never heard of them before this post. >However, they are more expensive, have less servers to chose from, c..."

"I'm very happy with Proton VPN, but dont understand why different servers gave different results. For example, reading newspaper sites. With a US server I can log in and comment on stories. But with the UK servers, despite it being the home..."

"Proton worked fine for me when I was there a month back. Stayed for a month. But the best VPN is still LetsVPN, just use that one on “Hong Kong” servers. It has always worked for me, even Chinese people use it"

"If you wanna use a VPN for **privacy** , it truly does me great contradiction as to how thee conclude to belive some provider giving you free candy. I'd understand if it were for anything other than privacy. With that being said, ProtonVPN ..."

"I did some shopping and researching and am testing Proton for a month to see if I like it. It works pretty well, a little lag but I think I can choose better locations. I made the decision based on price and needs"

"Windscribe is the best choice in terms of unlocking many Netflix libraries than any VPN along and other major UK/NZ/USA streaming services. Some users with high bandwidth, like those over 500.Mbps, report slow speeds and lag (not less than ..."

"Best free VPN for everyday privacy use right now? i've been testing a bunch of free VPNs lately (Proton free, Windscribe free, TunnelBear, Hotspot Shield free) and most of them feel too limited for daily use. Either the speeds drop hard on..."

"Your experience is unique to you. Others, specially those that stream, see Proton as a very slow speed VPN service, with also far less servers and locations then the top VPN services."

"Not a fan of either. Proton randomizes what country server you connect to, so there is no manual control in terms of country server selection, plus there is only like 5 or 6 country servers available, and Windscribe has a annoying 10GB data..."

"Suggest avoiding ProtonVPN. I'd been using ProtonVPN for a year and initially liked the service. However, within the last month or so, I noticed the connections become sporadically disconnected and rerouted to local, but "unsafe", Countries..."
