Which speed test should you take?
For reflexes, start with the Reaction Time Test: five rounds of pressing the moment the screen goes green, averaged to the millisecond. The Choice Reaction Time Test makes you pick the right square first, and the F1 Reaction Time Test copies a race start: five red lights, then go. The Serial Reaction Time hides a repeating pattern in its presses, to see whether your hands learn it before you do.
For clicking, the CPS Test counts your clicks per second over 5 or 10 seconds, the Kohi Click Test offers timers from 1 to 60 seconds, and the jitter and butterfly click tests each measure their own technique. For typing, the Typing Speed Test gives words per minute and the Number Typing Test keystrokes per hour when typing numbers.
What is a good reaction time?
On a test like ours, about 273 ms is typical. That is the middle result on Human Benchmark's browser test, which also times a click on a screen that turns green (read on 2026-10-12). The Reaction Time Test rates your average against it in five bands of its own, and explains why your device adds time to every result.
Why do results differ between devices?
Because your device is part of every measurement. A screen shows a change only when it next refreshes, every 16.7 ms at 60 Hz, and mice and keyboards report to the computer at fixed intervals, every 8 ms at a common USB rate. Wireless devices and some screens add more. Compare results taken on the same device; the methodology page explains the details.
