Netflix ExpressVPN Test in China

May 30, 2021 VPN Netflix test in China, today is my first time in using VPN to test Netflix. The test is different from my usual VPN test. First of all, any VPN server for Netflix support is usually not a big change in the short term, the only thing to consider may be the speed problem (such as whether the lag, whether you can watch 4K and so on), and this speed problem can be done completely through the daily [VPN daily speed test] to complete.

Netflix speed test Will help you understand the following two things:
1. testing which servers of the VPN support Netflix.
2. testing how fast the VPN servers are for Netflix Fast.

• ExpressVPN Test Report in China March 20, 2025 - Today's ExpressVPN test was prompted by its recent update for Chinese users, which added several new servers.

Summary: A special test was conducted on Netflix via ExpressVPN in Windows. I also found some problems with the Netflix main site and the Netflix speed test site, Fast. In the Fast speed test station, it showed an indication that it could not connect or was not secure, making it impossible to test the speed, but in fact these servers were still able to watch Netflix proprietary movies in the region where the server was located. I couldn’t test all the servers because there are hundreds of them, but from testing, it appears that ExpressVPN has very, very good support or compatibility with Netflix.

Since this is my first complete test of Netflix, so the test content and key elements may not be grasped accurately. You can make more comments so that I can improve, and I will also test the server support and speed of Netflix on other VPNs that can be safely over the wall in China in due course.
