May 28, 2021 IOS China VPN test: Today will be conducted with Apple IOS system iPhone as the test platform, IOS system version 14.5.1, while the test version of ExpressVPN is 10.0.8 (20065), this version of ExpressVPN officially provides three connection protocol options are UDP, TCP, IKEv2, and one option is Automatic. I am surprised that the latest Lightway-UDP protocol has performed very well according to the test performance of Windows and Macbook, why it has not been added to IOS. The specific should refer to the protocol branch of OpenVPN, now there are Lightway-UDP and OpenVPN-UDP two UDP mode, in the end which one, I prefer OpenVPN.
It should also be noted that as of the release of this test report, the performance of ExpressVPN in Macbook and Windows is still very good and not affected by the firewall (mainly based on my usual use to judge).
The daily speed test will help you understand three things:
1. the success rate of the VPN’s server connection in the device under test.
2. the server connection time of the VPN in the tested device.
3. the speed of the VPN after a successful connection to the server in the device under test.

Summary: The above is a test of ExpressVPN on the iPhone today, testing a total of two protocol options, Automatic tested the six officially recommended servers, the overall performance is good. IKEv2 protocol also tested a total of 6 servers in Asia and 3 in the United States. From the test results, you should be able to see that when using the IKEv2 protocol to connect to some servers in Asia, most of the time the speed will be slow or very slow; while the use of servers in the United States can reach almost full speed (local broadband is 300M). So it is recommended that you try to use the IKEv2 protocol when using servers based in the United States.
