[General Topics] Midian:
i made this thread to:

1)Discuss Mobile Browsers ONLY

2)Review These Browsers

3)Give Download Links To Them

4)Because We Needed It Lol

SO lets try to keep it organized on KEEP IT ON TOPIC. Dont spam my thread lol. Keep these rules in mind. Also, if a browser has been reviewed already, you CAN give it another review JUST MAKE SURE that you DONT have the same service as the reviewer did AND/OR you used a DIFFERENT data type.

Follow my simple rules and it should be all cool :cool:

Organization:

1)Browser Name

2)Phone Model and Service

3)Type of Data (EDGE, Wifi, 3G, etc)

4)Browser Review (and web pages tested)

5)Rating (1-5 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest)

6)Download Link

And well......Why make the thread if i dont intend on posting something. So here we go:

Opera Mobile 9.5 (Buile 1004)

T-Mobile Wing (HTC Atlas) with...of course...T-Mobile

Using WiFi (high speed lol)

Well lets see, Ive used Opera Mini for a long time and i decided i needed an upgrade. Then i remember hearing that Opera Mobile 9.5 was leaked. So i visited my favorite torrent site, gave it a quick search, downloaded it (its only like 4-5mb so it took like 2 minutes for bittorent to finish it) and installed it on my phone. Opera Mobile 9.5 has an extremely nice UI and its easy to use. I like the fact that the page goes to full screen when i tap on the background and i can bring up th menu to change the settings, bookmark the page, etc all easily.I visited this site (30 seconds to fully load), Myspace.com (took 50 seconds to fully load), and Google.com (took 7 seconds to fully load). Also, at first (for myspace) it loaded a form of portal. It gave me the option to load the full page of myspace, or the mobile version. The portal took 9 seconds to fully load and the mobile version only took an extremely short 4 seconds to load.

Opera Mobile 9.5 gets a definate 5/5 from me. It was fast, easy to use, and its Opera lol you cant go wrong with this browser.

Unfortunately, i cant provide a download link. Its leaked, google it lol. Dont want to get in any kind of trouble

Picsel Browser

T-Mobile Wing.....using T-Mobile

Using WiFi (of course)

Well welll well.......Its labled as "iPhone style web browser" in the herald forum. So i thought i would give it a try. It was actually a pretty decent browser. Easy to use, simple UI, and its speed was decent. Unfortunately it handles memory like a ***** and it got annoying after 20-30 minutes of browsing. But i still liked it. I tested this site (loaded in 39 seconds), myspace (loaded in 1 minute 33 seconds) and google (loaded in 15 seconds) But unfortunately, some of the pages were odd looking (myspace and this sites)

So enough said. Its a pretty nice browser but the memory control needs to be improved and loading big sites like this, myspace.....well basically any site with alot of links and/or images causes the page to come out weird. This browser gets a 4/5

Microsoft Internet Explorer Mobile A.K.A Pocket Internet Explorer A.K.A PIE

T-Mobile Wing.....do i need to even say the service again?

Wifi.....duh lol

Well here is the default browser your Windows Mobile device will come with. Not much to say. If you have ever used Internet Explorer, this one is no different. If your still using Internet Explorer.....something is definately wrong with you lol. Still testing the same 3 web sites. This sites (1 minute 4 seconds) myspace (1 minute 27 seconds AND IT DIDNT EVEN LOAD THE FULL PAGE.....WELL IT DID BUT YOU CANT SEE ANYTHING!!!!!!) and google (7 seconds)

And again, it loaded the myspace portal (taking 12 seconds to load that) the mobile page (in an amazing 5 seconds)

Well enough of that, lets give this browser a score......this browser gets a 2/5 (go figure :rolleyes:)

Download Link:...............I wont even include it. Internet Explorer is that horrible of a browser. I have yet to try a worse browser (saving it for the 1/5 mark) but if i dont find one, this will get a 1/5

well thats all the browser im doing for now
