What is the fastest Astro theme in 2026?

On 2026-09-14, the highest mobile speed score among the 430 Astro themes we have tested is 8-BitQuest by AstroCraftThemes at 100 out of 100, measured with Google Lighthouse on its demo store. Rankings change as themes are re-tested, so the live table above is the current answer.

How are Astro themes tested?

Each theme's own demo store is run through Google's PageSpeed Insights API (Lighthouse) on mobile and desktop, for the home page and, where the platform has them, a collection page and a product page. A theme's headline score is the median of its presets; a preset's is the mean of its pages. Every run is kept, so scores have a history and are re-measured continuously.

What is a good Lighthouse score for a Astro theme?

Google's bands are 90–100 good, 50–89 needs improvement, 0–49 poor. The median mobile speed score across tested Astro themes is 95, and 263 of 430 (61%) reach 90 or better. Mobile scores run well below desktop for the same theme because Lighthouse simulates a mid-range phone on a slow connection.
