What We Like

What We Don't Like

  • Increased latency on Windows: PureVPN affected our Windows laptop's latency significantly, increasing it by almost four times.
  • Price increase after initial subscription: A two-year subscription costs $69.95, but once it expires, it renews annually for the same price. That means that the price doubles after the initial subscription.

Bottom Line

Super concerned about privacy? PureVPN has the distinct advantage of third-party auditing, making sure that its no-logging policy is legitimate.
