expressvpn is about USD4.48/mth whereas surfshark is USD0.62/mth
i saw an article about surfshark got a 700% increase in hk sales this week. might be the reason for this.

It should be clear that services like SurfShark are going for MASS sales vs quality service like ExpressVPN provides. Why don't we see such a massive sales from ExpressVPN or Astrill? Because is impossible to sustain efficient infrastructure, including private business streaming US IPs (to access Netflix etc) by charging so little.

Does SurfShark have smart DNS which works with US Netflix and Disney+?

Not so sure about how good it is, but Surfshark does offer smart dns for US geo-restricted contents (not for other contents, say UK or Japan).

FAQ from Surfshark on their smart DNS.

BTW, side topic, Astrill Android free version is excellent, much faster than my paid purevpn.

I have got NordVPN, VyprVPN, ExpressVPN & Windscribe now.

Will do a comparison between them with apps like Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, Prime Video & Viu in the coming weeks.
