how's it going everybody welcome back today we're going to be taking a look at the speed test
results here between nordvpn and surf shark we're going to be comparing both and just
to give you guys a little bit of an idea of which one could be the best choice for you and you know
based on these results hopefully you can make a more educated decision as to which one could
be the better one at least for your situation so before we begin if you guys are interested
in either nord or surf shark you'll find links to special deals and discounts in the description
down below as well as a full review if you'd like to learn more about either of these vpns
now just to offer a little bit of a reference anything between five and twenty five percent
uh decrease in speed it's considered to be uh very very fast most vpns will struggle to keep up
with these vpns as i've tested a whole lot of other vpns and
they consistently give me speed decreases of you know over over 20 at least over 20 30 sometimes up
to 60 percent decrease in speed so uh yeah we're gonna go ahead and take a look what these uh vpns
are giving me of course take it with a grain of salt each uh you know speed tests will vary yeah
it depends on the server you're connecting to it depends on your own uh network and how good your
internet connection is are using an ethernet cable or are you on wi-fi the distance between
you and the server you're connecting to there are multiple factors that affect the speed tests
and of course the servers are using uh for the test so uh many things that affect these tests
so take it with a grain of salt this is just supposed to give you a rough idea of which vpn
uh performs uh better than the other uh and of course i'm somewhere in the in this region so
i'm i'm near uh europe essentially when i connect when i game i do connect to european servers and
that's why you'll find that my european results are actually better when i connect to european
servers i get better speeds than when connecting to faraway servers so i tested a server in the
middle which is swiss server the swiss server in switzerland i tested the east coast new york
server and i tested the japanese server and here are the results my speed of course without a vpn
is at 5.72 megabits per second nothing impressive i can't really afford any more decreases
in my speed so let's go ahead and check it out with nordvpn at 4.91 megabits per second which is
a 14.16 decrease in speed with surf shark at 4.79 megabits per second which translates into a 16.25
decrease in speed um this is so it seems like nordvpn is two percent faster in this case
uh moving on to the swiss server 5.09 megabits per second with nordvpn which is an 11
decrease in speed 5.08 megabits per second with surf shark which is also an 11.1 i mean
yeah roughly the same here with the swiss server moving on to the japanese server impressively
enough 5.63 megabits per second it seems like nordvpn has a strong japanese server there
uh very well optimized and i i tried to make sure that this isn't a fluke and i kept refreshing this
uh test right here and i kept getting very high speed results here so this is a 1.57
decrease which is insane considering the distance here uh i mean i'm testing a server roughly
yeah this is probably i mean it's kind of the same distance between new york uh and uh in the middle
here between new york and japan so yeah uh anyways this is super impressive uh surface is definitely
not going to be able to keep up with this at 4.61mbps per second which is a 19.4 decrease uh in
speed uh percent decrease so uh yeah uh hopefully you guys have a bit of a better idea of which vpn
could be the better uh choice for you i mean it depends on what you're looking for you know
do you prioritize speed are you prioritizing perhaps the few features a few extra features that
come with nord um do you want something cheaper so you can go with surf shark do you want to be
able to unblock uh an unlimited number of devices you can go with surf shark or maybe six or enough
with north so you'll go with nord uh yeah it depends on what you're looking for obviously both
