How the winners of the Xataka Awards were chosen
The mechanics of the Xataka NordVPN Awards 2025 have been similar to previous editions and are divided into three phases:
- Public vote: For a few days we have opened voting on our website with all the categories and candidates selected by the Xataka team. Our xatakeros have voted on them and we have obtained the finalists that appear in this article.
- Jury vote: With the finalists that the public has chosen, the Xataka jury and other technology experts voted for those who are, in their view, the best devices.
- Choice of winners: The jury’s votes have been combined with those of the public to choose the winners, who were announced at the gala on November 20.
The selected candidates are devices that They have gone on sale in 2025 or will do so with a confirmed date before the end of the year. We also include those that were left out last year when they were announced after the Awards. We believe it is the best solution: Unfortunately we cannot celebrate the gala on December 31 and our idea is that the Awards can serve as support in the purchasing decision for this last part of the year.
