Yes, this is the advantage of PWAs. The main focus is on mobile devices, as mobile traffic accounts for 55% of total traffic and the number is still growing.

Can you guarantee the speed of StoreFront X and Lighthouse metrics results? 

We make sure StoreFront X is as fast as possible. However, we can’t guarantee this, as adding non-performing components or external resources to the frontend can affect speed/score. Many 3rd party libraries have started to take performance into account, so we need to choose wisely when selecting external components in our web apps. However, we heavily focus on clean instance to reach top score and provide consulting services if you get stuck and need help.
