Xlogin is the latest in a series of Chinese anti-detect browsers hoping to capture a wider audience abroad. It promises to be the one-stop solution for multi-accounting needs as diverse as ad arbitrage and community engagement and offers a slew of fingerprint masking features.
If you regularly read our browser comparisons, the descriptions and screenshots in this review might jog your memory. No, you’re not experiencing déjà vu. Xlogin is essentially a carbon copy of the VM browser, from its interface and features to the pricing structure.
Which is the original? Is the same company behind both? What’s the point? With so many sketchy browsers competing against legitimate options like GoLogin, it’s impossible to say.
We’re not off to a good start, and things are about to get even weirder. Stay for the ride and find out whether Xlogin is worth your time and money.
TL;DR – A table in the final section will also bring things into perspective if you don’t want to read through the review.
First Impressions
Xlogin’s homepage greets you with tasteful graphics and a high-level overview of what you can expect from the browser. All the pricing information and a quick download button help speed up the initial steps. So far, so good – or so we thought.
Downloading Xlogin’s newest version went smoothly. However, during the installation Windows Defender issued a Trojan warning for the main executable.
We’ve had to install some seedy anti-detect browsers to bring you these reviews, but none of them triggered any anti-malware measures before.
Tech support claims this is due to the software packer and a false positive. We weren’t keen on finding out, so we aborted the installation. Luckily, older versions are available in the downloads section.
We picked one and were able to install it without issue. The install tool was the same, while the older executable didn’t trigger any warnings.
Rather than speculate about what the latest version may or may not install on your computer, we can say with certainty that the ordeal reflects poorly on Xlogin, especially when dealing with enterprise clients.
Dashboard & Customization
The Xlogin dashboard looks dated and lacks customization. Users accustomed to shaping their profile overview will be disappointed, as creation, launch, and edit dates take up most of the real estate.
Rearranging the limited elements is impossible. You can’t even resize the window!
Xlogin partially redeems itself with a comprehensive right-click menu. The options focus on profile editing and exporting, cookie settings, and group management. Group overview and creation are available on the second tab.
The third tab, Recycle Bin, is a neat feature. Deleted profiles go into the bin rather than being removed completely. You have seven days to restore any you deleted accidentally.
Profile Creation and Fingerprints
Xlogin boasts one of the most in-depth profile creation experiences we’ve ever encountered on an anti-detect browser. Newbies will definitely be overwhelmed with the amount and breadth of customization options.
Luckily, they may create a random fingerprint or consult the thorough tutorial section to learn what each setting does.
The extensive fingerprint masking section covers everything from modifying the user agent through canvas settings to font choices and media device masking. And that’s without delving into the advanced settings.
Batch profile creation is supported too – we just wish it wasn’t tucked away towards the end of an already cluttered settings list.
Proxies and Profile Viability
You go about proxy setup in a bit of a roundabout way since Xlogin doesn’t have a dedicated proxy tab. It’s possible to assign a proxy when creating a profile or import a text file with the appropriate formatting and apply it to single profiles or batches.
Since the UI is so sparse, there’s no way of knowing whether you’ve tied a profile to a proxy unless you edit the profile.
Despite all the fingerprinting possibilities, we found Xlogin’s performance hit and miss. It supposedly lets you emulate Android and iOS mobile environments, but scans showed both browser and fingerprint inconsistencies.
Getting the green light from Pixelscan and IPhey takes some work. You’ll have to experiment with different settings and may not get consistent results even then.
For example, the tests in the picture were conducted with the same configuration, and Pixelscan passed while IPhey did not.
Reputation and Customer Support
Xlogin has a modest online presence beyond the great firewall. Cursory searches reveal nothing, partly because Twitter’s name change makes it much harder for anything with the words X and login to stand out.
G2 and Capterra are silent. Trustpilot has a few generic positive reviews and a negative one criticizing profile unreliability and the steep price. While the review itself is 4 years old, not much has changed in that respect.
On the bright side, we have to give Xlogin kudos for exceptionally thorough documentation. Everything you could possibly want to know about the browser, from advanced fingerprint settings to API integration, is accessible from one place and explained well. There’s a video tutorial series to get newbies up to speed, too.
You can reach Xlogin’s customer support via Telegram, Skype, or email. They’re slower to respond on weekends but answer weekday inquiries reasonably quickly.
GoLogin – The Safe & Effective Anti-Detect Standard
Now that we’ve examined Xlogin’s advantages and shortcomings, let’s see how GoLogin approaches multi-accounting challenges.
User Experience & Customization
GoLogin was designed with a broad audience in mind. First-time users with little general technical experience can start using it as intended after the introductory tour acquaints them with the basics.
Setting new profiles up takes just a few clicks, and you don’t have to worry about renting a proxy since they’re a core feature.
Advanced users can take advantage of the modern, highly adjustable UI while exploring a depth of profile configuration options similar to Xlogin’s. Specifically, GoLogin’s dashboard is much more suitable for monitoring, sorting, and managing hundreds of profiles as well as performing mass actions on them.
Thanks to this flexibility, you can turn GoLogin into a minimalistic control panel that displays only a few pertinent bits of information for many profiles or track more than a dozen parameters.
Collaboration Features
We didn’t talk much about Xlogin’s collaboration features since they’re underdeveloped. An administrator can assign profile creation and viewing privileges along with proxy settings to subordinates. Strangely, admins can’t see profiles created by subordinates unless they sign into their accounts.
GoLogin’s collaboration features are more refined. Admins can enable a host of permissions for team members and always know what they’re up to. Team member accounts can access the same profiles and alter their settings.
However, you can isolate profile groups and assign them to specific team members if you don’t wish others to interact with them.

Multi-Platform Support
Unlike Xlogin, which is only available for Windows, GoLogin offers versions for Linux and MacOS. Alternatively, you can install its Android app and emulate mobile fingerprints to advertise and manage multiple accounts on TikTok from the same device. Finally, you may launch 1-4 profiles from the online dashboard without installing anything locally.
Anti-Detect Performance and Customer Service
Immediate, hassle-free results are the best thing about GoLogin. While you can tinker with advanced fingerprint settings or import external proxies, the defaults are enough whether you’re scraping data, managing social media, or hunting for the best online prices. Also, we never thought we’d need to point a problem-free installation out as a feature, yet here we are.
GoLogin customers enjoy prompt 24/7 support. You access the live chat feature from within the app and don’t need to link any other accounts.
Xlogin vs GoLogin – Pricing
Trials & Free Plans
While it doesn’t have a free version, Xlogin still lets you experience most of its features through a 3-day trial. Keep in mind that you’ll have to contact customer service to activate the trial, which can take anywhere from a couple of minutes to several hours, depending on the time of day and week. The trial limits you to five profiles and doesn’t support subordinate accounts.
GoLogin’s 7-day free trial comes pre-activated. Better yet, it has no feature restrictions. This is crucial for indecisive clients with considerable multi-accounting needs who want to evaluate the browser in realistic conditions before committing.
On top of a free trial, GoLogin makes 3 profiles available for free indefinitely. Perfect for someone with a few Facebook accounts or e-commerce stores to run.
Paid Plans
Anti-detect browser providers usually have reasonably priced starter tiers designed to satisfy the needs of single users and small or medium-sized businesses. For example, GoLogin offers the “Professional” tier for $49/month, complete with 100 profiles along with access to its REST API and mobile app.
Xlogin users have no choice but to start at a steep $99/month. They get 200 profiles and five subordinate seats, which is fine for established teams that manage complex automation campaigns or extensive ad testing. However, it’s overkill as the entry-level option.
As if that weren’t a hard sell, GoLogin’s “Business” plan costs the same yet supports 300 profiles and 10 team members.
Missteps on Xlogin’s end continue with the “Teams” tier. It makes 500 profiles available for up to ten seats at $209/month. In contrast, GoLogin’s “Enterprise” plan costs $10 less, comes with double the profiles, and ups team member support to 20.
“Scale” is the final structured Xlogin plan. It costs a hefty $499/month, comes with 3,000 profiles, and matches GoLogin’s seat count at the enterprise level. The same setup would cost $100 less if you were to sign up for a custom plan with GoLogin.
The above prices don’t account for the savings a yearly subscription comes with. Committing to a year puts Xlogin users at an even greater disadvantage since they get a 25% discount compared to GoLogin’s 50%.

We’ve seen worse anti-detect browsers than Xlogin. Then again, several we’ve tested outclass it in every way while still not being up to GoLogin’s high standards.
The installation warnings and the fact that there’s another browser out there that looks and behaves just like this one should give you pause. Even if it doesn’t, there’s no single egregiously wrong thing about Xlogin that should make users dismiss it outright. Almost all features fall short of expectations, compounding into a mediocre experience you don’t need to put yourself through.
Even if you look past the non-existent customization and half-baked teamwork features, Xlogin’s unreasonably high monthly fees will put the vast majority of potential customers off. Especially since GoLogin does everything better and cheaper.
We tackle these dicey anti-detect browsers so you don’t have to. Save yourself the trouble, avoid this one, and go with an industry-approved choice like GoLogin instead.
