One of the big problems with being in China is that the Internet is heavily controlled. Many famous social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook are all blocked in mainland China. So if you want to escape the Great Firewall of China. You really should resort to some internet tools.
You may try some free VPN services, however most of them do not work well in China. In order to have a smooth surfing experience and save your valuable time, it is worth to spend a buck on it. I live in Beijing and have personally tried about 15 VPN services during the past 4 years. And I am willing to share my experience and review of the VPN services in CHINA.
So lets get started. I’ve got the current best 7 VPN services in mainland China as below. Some VPN services have had their main domains blocked in the country, which means you have to download it before coming to China. And those marked not blocked can be downloaded and installed within the territory of mainland China.
1. Pure VPN (site blocked in china)
This is a great VPN service and I am using it in China.Purevpn.com is easy follow and set up, it provides step-by-step tutorials on their website to help you set up VPN on Windows, Pad or cell phones. They have 24 hours live chat support through their website, so you can always talk to a real person and get help. Its IP address are scattered around the world such as the USA, Canada, Malaysia and other regions. You can choose the IP address with the fastest speed. According to New York Times recently China further tightens grip on the Internet and a number of V.P.N. companies’ services were disrupted by Chinese government, but my Purevpn account still works quite well, fast speed and very steady, so I strongly recommendtheir service. )
2. Switch VPN (not blocked in china)
Switchvpn.net is the only VPN whose site is not blocked in China, which means you can visit its site and download its vpn service in mainland China. In China where many of the larger VPN service providers have been experiencing issues, SwitchVPN can still work well and continue to provide a solid and reliable service. SwitchVPN is a cool service you should try.
3. Hidemyass VPN (site blocked in china)
Hidemyass.com/vpn/ is a great and reliable VPN service provider. They provide more than 22,000 IP addresses located in 34 countries around the world. Their service is relatively cheap compared with others and very easy to use and install. The software itself can automatically change IP address to obtain the fastest speed. It works well not only in PCs but also in smart phones.
4. vyprvpn (site blocked in china)
vyprvpn is another very good vpn service I strongly recommend. I have used their service for the past one year. You can fastly access to facebook. twitter, Youtube and more websites blocked by Chinese government. The site offers dozens of servers in many countries and I have tested their service in Beijing, the speed is very good especially with youtube, Facebook and the like. The interface is very simple and users can change servers very easily by just a click. They also support a free trial which allow users to see what they will get for their money, and it proves that it is really worth the value of your money.
5. Ip Vanish (site blocked in China)
Ip Vanish is another good choice. They’ve got a huge number of server locations and IP addresses. Their VPN speed is very fast and users can surf anonymously and access blocked websites in China. Its advanced technology even allow watch Netflix, Hulu in China with an anonymous IP address. Their price is not the best but I think it is good for the money. The one year package is $77.99 with only $6.49 per month.
6. 12 VPN (site blocked in china)
12vpn.com is another one you shold consider. They have a very simple site interface which is easy for common users to master. An ordinary netizens can figure out how to set up and use it in about ten minutes without actually understanding anything about VPN technology.
7. Strong VPN (site blocked in china)
Strongvpn.com is a very good paid VPN service in China. Strongvpn has fast speed, great 24 hours online support and what’s more it is very easy to set up and use on computer, iPhone and ipad. It is a powerful tool for foreign expats and Chinese netizens inside The Great Firewall of China. I strongly recommend it.
