Chrome

Chrome is the fastest to use for multi tabs

Compared to Firefox which runs slower ( prob from too much bloatware)

I also use Pale Moon which has less bloatware but none are faster than Chrome

I personally use Chrome because it was the fastest browser around the time I started web browsing (think about 11 years ago), and has a natural synergy between Android phones and PCs. I do wonder how much data Google is able to obtain from us though, what with their monopoly and vast variety of softwares... But that is another discussion!

[Off-topic] Dirk:
Why is Chrome on Android so bad at video playback? Pick any subreddit, for example r/WTF, and compare Chrome and Firefox for Video clips and GIFs. With Firefox they all begin immediately, with no buffering, no spinning circles or Triangle shaped Play icons in the frame. With Chrome it's the complete opposite. Half the time they won't play at all. It's been this way for so long now and nothing has changed.

Unfortunately the scrolling, sync and Bookmarks management in Firefox makes it unusable for me. Seriously, why is it almost impossible to order Bookmarks, and the folders they're in, alphabetically? Why won't the SOB load favicons until a site has been visited, that's if they'll load at all? The Tab switcher is fugly too and much nicer in Chrome. Of course, one benefit to Firefox is being able to use Google Search and not have any AMP results. On Chrome i have to use Bing because of this.

Chrome has another huge bug that doesn't afflict other Browsers. Some 'Display Size' settings, like the 'Small' preset or various Custom values, break Full Screen video in Chrome. The Status Bar won't be hidden. Then there's the constant reloading of Tabs when you switch between them, and the godawful New Tab page. Let me define a URL and load that instead! Lack of Extension support is a huge fail too.

Overall, Browsers in Android are a hot mess. There isn't a single one that comes close to ticking all the boxes. Fortunately on Desktop it's much better. I can use either Chrome or Firefox with no real preference either way.

I suggest Opera

I suggest Opera

Opera is quite good at handling resources

You have an inbuilt VPN provided with Opera in private mode.

I've used Chrome - i'm not a fan of it, but somehow it became popular,

FIirefox is the second one i suggest if you want to customize your browser with a bunch of addons and stuff, eventually both Firefox & Chrome thrive for resources if you've multiple tabs opened and switching between them, cgiven that you've limited RAM (<=8GB).

There's no right or wrong answer, especially when it comes to taste. Would you like you meat roasted or smoked? That's it, your preference nothing else.

Everyone has a reason for using a particular browser over the other. Although I'm a fan of Chrome.

Why would it be an obvious choice? Windows users might say they use Edge obviously because it comes with the bundle.

1. Known best for its Speed and simplicity.

2. It doesn't require an additional flash player as it is in-built with this platform.

3. Having popular UI and GUI services, integrated by Google.

4. It supports both application and browsing platform of worldwide websites.

5. Option to access browsers from different Google accounts in its platform.

:good: Just create a Google Account, Sign in to Google Chrome, Search and Explore!
