Synthetic measurement of speed happens in a controlled environment: every now and then we run Lighthouse on a specific URL from a specific machine with defined network throttling. Reproducible, good for CI, but it does not capture what real users experience.
Under the synthetic measurements tag you will find articles on how we configure them in PageSpeed.ONE, when they have more value than CrUX, and how to combine them with data from real users.
