Regarding location and throughput, its a bit outdated (October 2017) but legit reviews and reports (tons of VPN reviews are basically on a circle of faux review sites owned by VPN companies or advertisers themselves) of their performance suggests that they're very capable. Regarding latencies and server locations, their locations are all helpfully listed on the Server page and the Mullvad rep mentioned 71 cities.

Mullvad goes a bit further and has implemented some quality tech (ie they support WireGuard in addition to OpenVPN), open source utilities, and more - check out their technical list at the bottom of the Features page. One can also check out which has nice spreadsheet-based breakdowns of VPN features Mullvad does well here too. A good place to start for comparisons is - they list quite a few VPNs to compare which all ostensibly claim to be no logs, non US based etc. ![]() Mullvad is one of the better options out there. ![]()
