Proton VPN Review

Proton VPN does everything you could ask for in a VPN which you can wholeheartedly trust. Whether it's the unique Secure Core architecture, the protection from Swiss data laws, or the strong encryption standards, your privacy is never up for debate when connected to Proton VPN. It doesn't quite match some other top VPN providers for breadth of extra features but it is part of a wider product ecosystem, all focused on living a more private digital life.

Proton VPN impressed with its commitment to privacy, as well as multiple functional privacy tools. Its vast server network especially delivers in regions like Africa and Asia, where other VPN providers tend to struggle. However, while it's fast over WireGuard, its OpenVPN speeds were less impressive than what we were expecting, sometimes performing only half as well as the rest of our top five.

Proton VPN Free offers a premium-feeling free VPN experience. Solid speeds and a sleek app interface offer reassurance despite limitations such as just 10 locations, which you can't choose from, and its single device connection. Plus, despite unlimited bandwidth, throttling issues leave much to be desired for P2P or streaming-focused users.

“Proton VPN's excellent free VPN is even better in 2025, but the paid subscription still provides the best speed and server selection.”
