Surfshark review: honest experience and pricing (2026)
Surfshark stands out with a low entry price and unlimited simultaneous devices, making it popular with families and people with lots of devices.
Pros
- Unlimited devices on a single subscription, unlike many competitors that cap device count
- Low entry price on longer subscriptions
- High Trustpilot score with a large number of reviews
Cons
- Monthly pricing without a long-term contract is significantly higher than the promoted entry price
- Smaller server network than the very largest competitors, though this isn't an issue for most users in practice
Pricing
Surfshark starts at around $2.49/month on a long-term plan, versus $15.45/month on a rolling monthly plan. Watch the auto-renewal terms.
Speed and servers
Surfshark generally performs well on speed in independent tests, with a smaller but still substantial server network compared to the biggest players in the market.
What users say
Surfshark scores between 4.3 and 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot in early 2026, depending on when it's measured, based on 27,000 to 30,000 reviews. About three-quarters of reviews are five stars, users mostly cite price and unlimited devices as strengths.
Verdict
Surfshark is one of the best options if you want to protect a lot of devices without paying extra for it. Do expect a substantial price jump if your subscription auto-renews after the initial discounted period.
