PureVPN review for Chinese users

Why is PureVPN a reliable VPN? A detailed review on PureVPN’s service and pricing

At present, nearly all top VPN service providers are located outside of China, with the exception of PureVPN from Hong Kong, China. PureVPN is regarded as one of the VPN market leaders. In general, PureVPN is a reliable VPN service provider according to our experience and some top online review sites. Let’s take a brief look at the service stability and price of VPN. We believe these are the two factors most VPN users care about.

By 2019, if we want to make a comprehensive ranking of the mainstream VPN service providers in the domestic and foreign markets, PureVPN will undoubtedly rank in the top three.

First of all, it depends on the stability of the service. If you are a foreign user (U.S., Canada, Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Australia, Japan, Singapore, etc.) and come to China for a temporary business trip or tourism, you must use VPN to visit foreign resources (commonly known as “climb over the wall” in China). Because you’re probably going to use Netflix to track shows, YouTube to watch videos, twitter to tweet, or Google to search. Many VPNs that can be used normally in foreign countries are likely to be acclimatized and unable to access VPN services when they arrive in mainland China, while PureVPN rarely has such problems. In particular, PureVPN’s mobile VPN (Apple’s IPSec native VPN setting) has the best stability among all VPNs, none of them.

Second, let’s look at the price of PureVPN. Among all the mainstream VPN service providers, PureVPN’s price is at the lowest level all the year round (whether monthly payment or annual payment package), and this price is not cheap at the expense of service quality. PureVPN’s stability and timeliness of customer service do not lose any other VPN. In addition, every holiday, PureVPN will also launch a great deal of discount activities. For example, during this year’s (2019) Halloween promotion, PureVPN’s five-year package is as low as $1.65 per month (about 12 yuan per month), the total price is only $99, that is to say, the total price for five years is only about 690 yuan. The price can’t be lower.

In a word, whether you are purchasing a stable and cheap VPN or need to find a reliable backup VPN for the VPN you are using now, PureVPN will be your best choice.

PS: if you are interested in purchasing PureVPN service, you can also get further discount through specific coupon code. For example, if you buy a five-year Halloween promotion package, the total price is $99. You can also continue to discount by entering the offer code. If you want to get a further discount, you can use this coupon code: save15, which can save you another 15% (that is, the original price is $99, and you only need to pay 84.15 after using the coupon, which can save nearly $15 in total). Note that to use this coupon code, you need to purchase through this link: purchase link.

In addition, on the PureVPN checkout page, remember to enter this promo code. You need to find “have coupon code” under the total order amount, or the “enter coupon code” link, after clicking, a text box will be displayed, just type in: save15, click apply. You will find that the total price payable is discounted immediately after entering the discount code. You only need to pay according to the discounted price.
