Wave
Wave is a Shopify theme by Xotiny ($320). Tested on 2026-11-10 with Google Lighthouse via PageSpeed Insights on its own demo store, it scores 77 for mobile speed and 90 for desktop speed, 97/97 for SEO and 96/93 for accessibility (mobile/desktop, 0–100). Those are medians across its 5 tested presets; mobile speed across every tested page ranges from 65 to 90. On its marketplace it is rated 5.0 out of 5 from 2 reviews. Note: its demo home page is heavy — 9.4 MB — heavier than a typical store, so the speed score may understate the theme.
