ExpressVPN is one of the best VPNs available, but it is by no means a cheap option In fact, since its launch in 2009, it has gained ground as a top-quality, premium-priced VPN service without once raising or lowering the price of its VPN subscription

However, there is stiff competition when it comes to VPNs, and ExpressVPN seems to have finally realized that buyers vote with their wallets and want better value, regardless of the quality of the product

What this means is that now is the best time to sign up for ExpressVPN The new 2-year plan costs $532 per month (about $140 overall) and includes a 3-month free period This price also includes a year of free Backblaze cloud storage and ExpressVPN's perpetual free password manager Keys

In addition, this plan is exclusive to Tom's Guide and our friends at TechRadar for the next few weeks

ExpressVPN has long been one of our top choices, and one of our biggest complaints has always been that it is a bit expensive This deal goes a long way toward solving that, and while it is still far from the cheapest VPN, it is much more affordable

If you are a beginner, or just like to keep things simple, ExpressVPN is another great choice The interface is very easy to navigate and all settings are automated, giving you the best connection regardless of the network you are using

It is also one of the best streaming VPNs, and it unblocks everything we tested in our ExpressVPN review In short, it is a very sophisticated and easy-to-use VPN that is well worth the premium price We also rate it as the best VPN for iPhone thanks to its great iOS app

If you're looking for something a little cheaper, NordVPN is currently our number one VPN rating, albeit more complicated to use, and Surfshark is even cheaper

That said, if you want the most sophisticated VPN, or if you are a loyal Apple user, this ExpressVPN is worth considering
