"First, the bad: NordVPN's apps could all stand to undergo a little more quality control, with elements distracting from other elements and inconsistent designs from platform to platform. At least one of its FAQ pages directly contradicts itself. And while all the server locations could unblock Netflix, the one in Nigeria still showed U.S. content, indicating that our real location might have leaked."
"However, there's a lot of good to balance that out. Speeds are fantastic and we saw no other hint of any kind of leak. Its server network is expansive and not overly reliant on virtual locations. The vast majority of servers are ideal for unblocking foreign websites. The real draw, though, is the extra features, including the innovative and flexible Meshnet, plus a malware blocker that acts more like a full antivirus and forward-looking quantum resistant encryption."
NordVPN provides excellent connection speeds and an expansive server network spanning many countries, with most servers successfully unblocking foreign websites. The service includes advanced features such as Meshnet, a malware blocker resembling a full antivirus, and quantum-resistant encryption. App design and quality control are inconsistent across platforms, and at least one FAQ contains contradictory information. One tested server location (Nigeria) returned U.S. Netflix content, suggesting a possible location leak in that instance, though no other leaks were observed. Virtual locations are used but not heavily relied upon, and the overall service performs strongly for many use cases.
