3-4 seconds, better than the $10 thermometers you'd buy at a Walmart/Target/etc. The Thermapen Mk4 is 2-3 seconds and uses a different technology. If you're grilling, you'll appreciate the extra reach and speed of the thermapen.

Because it's far more accurate, and faster. This is the gold standard.

You don't need another one, but this one works just as good, and it's cheaper.

This is a fantastic deal. Easily the best probe on the market (along with the Thermopen).
Way better option than all the generic knockoffs constantly being shilled on forums.

First, you should decide if you're cool with bluetooth, or if you're willing to pay more for wi-fi.
I need wi-fi, because I wanted to be able to go downstairs on the other side of my house while grilling, and not worry about connection issues.
This might be overkill, but I just bought this (wi-fi), and it's still on sale with the same coupon I used. $55 after coupon, and it comes with a laser thermometer:
I've been very happy with it so far. Cooked steak, trout, salmon on the grill with it so far, and brisket in the slow cooker. Each time, I set alarms for the temperature I wanted, and it rang an alarm on my phone whenever it hit the temperature.

Off topic, but if I'm looking for one that can connect to my phone, would the best option be the meater?
It really depends on how much you want to spend and how far away your phone will be. Bluetooth has limited range and I hear Meater can be pretty bad sealed in a metal grill or smoker.
The title should be changed to ThermoPop $26
I almost bought one after seeing $21, but it's actually 25% more.
Don't get me wrong I love these things, I own a Thermopen.

It's actually cheaper than buying it without the laser ($58 after coupon):

Even buying it with an "instant fast read" thermometer is cheaper than just buying it without an accessory, at $57.50 after coupon:
