If privacy is your main concern, I probably wouldn't go with Cyberghost. A lot of people who prioritize privacy and anonymity don't trust it because it's owned by Kape Technologies, a company that's had a controversial past. Whether that matters is up to you but it's something worth knowing...
That said, from my own testing Cyberghost for DNS and WebRTC leaks, it passed both without exposing my IP. It's no logs policy has been independently audited which is a definitely a positive.
From everyday privacy, like hiding your activity from your ISP or public wi-fi, I think Cyberghost does the job just fine. But if you're someone who wants the highest level of privacy, I'd probably look at something like Mullvad or Proton VPN instead.
I've been using CyberGhost on my iPhone and iPad for a couple of years. When I'm connected to WiFi, it works really well. I mostly use it on my iPad to watch YouTube and connecting to servers in countries like Albania or Russia means I can watch without ads which is nice and I never had any problems with that.
The only issue I've had is when I'm out and using mobile data. My network isn't the best and in some areas the signal is already pretty weak. If CyberGhost is turned on, the internet sometimes just stops working completely. I tried disconnecting the VPN but it kept turning itself back on. I also tried disabling the Kill Switch but that didn't help either.
After a while it just got too annoying, so I ended up deleting the app from my phone completely. If you've already got a slow or unreliable mobile connection, I probably wouldn't recommend using CyberGhost on your phone. On WiFi though, it's been absolutely fine.
