What's the best VPN for Android in 2026?
ExpressVPN is currently CNET's top pick as the best Android VPN, thanks to the outstanding performance of its Android app and its strong commitment to privacy and transparency. The Android app is intuitive and doesn't compromise on privacy features. Also, ExpressVPN's proprietary Lightway protocol was recoded last year to improve its speeds, security and overall performance -- so you can stay private and stream content smoothly, even on the go. However, ExpressVPN’s price tag is on the high end of the spectrum. Surfshark offers some of the most wallet-friendly introductory prices on our list.
