What browser do you use? I am trying to find the a browser that has the following features:
1. Smoothness. Must have hardware acceleration enabled. I find that UC Browser HD is good in this section.
2. Has good HTML5 support (tested from html5test.com). I find Dolphin has the best.
3. Has fast javascript.
4. Supports gestures.
5. Supports proper fonts as set by site. For example UC Browser uses system fonts and it sucks..
6. Supports flash.
From my findings so far with Exynos (P600):
UC Browser is the smoothest because of hardware acceleration, has gestures, has flash, html5 support is good but not good at rendering fonts.
Dolphin with jetpack is close in smoothness but swiping up and down is too fast and the page goes to its top or bottom by a slight touch. Has the best html5 support and the gestures are not so great as UC.
Chrome beta is a bit behind in smoothness, great html5 score but lacks in gestures and no flash. I don't even discuss Chrome (plain), it is very jerky.
Firefox is a big dissapointment. I think however that Note 3 is great with firefox. I need some opinions from the Note 10.1 2014 Snapdragon users for Firefox (P601, P605).
Maxthon sucks bigtime. Your opinions please and if there is a dev that can suggest a speedup for a browser is welcome.
PS: I use a SM-P600 and have CleanRom and Bindroid kernel.
Dolphin with JetPack is a very good combination for html5 support but without jetpack is far from Opera Browser...
i have tested a lot of web browsers and the best browsers i found were Opera Browser, Boat Browser, and UC Browser (this one always freezes with no reason)
Opera, for overall smoothness. I use Outlook. Com to check my emails and Opera does the best rendering for that site too. Only gripe is the tiny fonts.
Opera the best for me .

You guys might wanna try Habit Browser (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.ddo.pigsty.HabitBrowser). It is fast&smooth and extremly customizable. Probably the most feature packed browser in existance.
It takes some time to set it up and the menus might overwhelm at first but once you're done its amazing.
UC might become my primary browser in the future, but there are some issues (like font size) that need to be worked out first.
I use the aosp browser on this tablet and all my devices I find it fast enough and I like the quick controls

I am using different browser. They are: Chrome, Firefox, Stock Browser and Skyfire Web Browser.
But I use Chrome most often because it is synchronized with my PC chrome and it supports pages translation..
You got the right man here.... uc browser ftw dude xD..... i contacted the developers several times and they listened and added my features .... like the scrolling button which appears when you scroll very hard ... that comes from me telling them haha xD im their nr 1 tester xD.... I tested like almost every browser .... some come close but fail at smth....
And dude I advise you dont upgrade to kitkat... because you will have to stick with dolphin which freaking sucks your battery dry by playing flash.... 10 percent in 1 minute no lies happened to me.... if you have trouble with font size try ...exposed module "app settings" its awesome...you can even enable fullscreen mode which hides the status bar.... i am all about that stuff.... if you have more questions contact me... ill give you some advise.... those previous comments really have no clue what browsers to use ...... uc is the best ... i kinda would have wished for a decent firefox browser... but that thing is just so bad...... Uc browser dude there is nothing better... i even use an older version of it on my note 2 .... i wanted a browser which comes close to firefox on desktop.... uc is the choice.... other browsers have issues that casual user dont notice but there are there.... these ppl will recommend you any kind of random browser .... uc nails it for a great UI ... adblock and widget buttons... and much more.... it comes closer to perfection every update ... try contact the devs for the font issue..... it doesnt bother me ... so....
I use Firefox Beta because I can syncrhonize it with my desktop-firefox and it's the only browser that does not corrupt downloadsand websites of my university.
i use aosp brower
so so fast
Floating boat+lecture notes = no lag while writing and using web.
If anyone has used boat, and found something better then I'll try it .
I use boat browser on all my devices as my default.

There is no point just saying which browser someone uses without mentioning their model. The P600 is exynos which behaves differently than the P601/P605. Please state your browser along with your model as smoothness is subjective to the processor.

I am currently using Skyfire, i've used everything from the old beta of opera... stock, dolphin browser (hd), and such.... with the new opera browser coming out on nov. 9, and mozilla aka firefox also out with a new browser... what do u think is the fastest, best design, and such or might be?
Tried them all too and still give it to the stock browser. Works best for me, fast, stable and works great.
Firefox is not ready for primetime really, I find dolphin a bit slow and cumbersome, skyfire is ok but so so for me.
Waiting to see what Opera brings to the table.
whats so special about the stock browser? ive been using dolphin hd and it works pretty good for me. unappealing layout though. cant wait until firefox is out of beta and is working properly. im wondering if there are plans to bring chrome to android.
(Note, I am biased, I work for Mozilla)
With the latest set of changes to Fennec (Firefox Mobile) it is finally getting to the point that it is useful to me as my main browser. Biggest improvement was memory reduction. If you haven't seen the coolness that is Firefox Sync, you have to check it out. Being able to open a tab from your desktop immediately in your phone is great. Obviously, still beta, but I love it cause I don't mind beta software.

Well for one, the stock browser doesn't look like a pile of (insert most foul feces you can think of here). Also, the stock browser doesn't waste screen space with unnecessary nonsense, which Dolphin seems to LOVE doing.
I aggree with muyoso, stock is best option for me. Dolphin took up too much room. I do have skyfire also, but only use it for flash vids when needed. When 2.2 comes around ill drop it all together. Firefox is still very much a beta, and a huge ram hog.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Must go with stock as well. Anything the other browsers do that stock doesn't, they don't end up doing it well. Stock is fine and will be even better when F comes out.
thanks, all. i guess i didnt give the stock browser enough time. uninstalled dolphin and put browser back on and liked it immediatly.

Yup, xscope user here as well. It's quick, out of the way, tabbed browsing, file management, text copying, and an exit feature with clean-up.
Shame it went pay-only (the trial version really isn't worth it with the watermark), but the old pay version went freeware on the website, so people can still enjoy a quick, minimal browser that's well beyond stock's capabilities and well below Dolphin's system load.

What can it do that the stock browser doesn't?
Skyline is my favorite next to stock. The ability to play flash videos, plus being allitte faster than stock.

I wouldn't mind stock if it could do adblock without rooting. As it is, the delays and text wrap changes to load ads really irk me.
Despite feeling the need to root and install custom ROM and kernel within an hour of using the phone, I have not felt the need to replace the stock browser... it seems pretty much perfect.
Dolphin hd for me. Blue theme add on installed as well. It is more flexible than stock browser too. Itd like stock android vs launcher pro.
I tried out FireFox a bit and its not too bad actually..still onyl tried it for a day and there is no flash support yet...also not used to the menu key not giving me an actual menu lol..there are a few minor bugs with it...
it loads pages faster but redraw is a lot slower..
Did an ACID 3 test for fun
Desktop FF 3.6: 94/100
Mobile FF: 97/100
Stock 2.1 Browser: 93/100
Would like to see them make a final release with flash and all the issues worked out.
Messed around with a few browsers. The stock one is deff nice/stable but opera mini picks up the slack in other areas. Opera also let's you download/play flash video. Both browsers and the stock videa player don't support any mpg format. Still working on finding a decent player compatiable with all formats like tcmp player. Download time are very close..pretty much even. Comming from the win mobile/tp2..when I was prompted to download to phone or sd card I could rename the file according to my liking..not so with either browser, could be an android thing. Figured Id give some detailed info on some specs of what each browser can do
I know most of you tab owners have probably installed a third-party web browser. Which one is your favorite and why?
I'm tired of the default browser that came with my Tab. It gets stuck too many times and crashes (signal 11 seg fault)

Dolphin Browser HD is what I use on all my mobile devices. You really can't go wrong with it.
Haven't found anything better than Miren Browser

Dolphin HD is the best for me.
I tried firefox but not flash support =nogo
Dolphin Mini. I think this is better than Dolphin HD. Give it a try and let us know what you think.
Dolphin mini is definitely my favorite browser at the moment. Consumes very little, does anything I need from a browser and it does look amazing too.
Swyped from my sexy galaxy tab
Lag time during scrolling/pinching is my biggest gripe with all Android browsers. I haven't found one that equals the iPad in this regard. FireFox responds the best but I'm not crazy about the UI, I like the tab interface on Dolphin better. I hope that Honeycomb's browser is better especially with the new dual core processors.
Wow. I didnt expect such great responses. Thanks to everyone who replied.
I plan to try Dolphin HD and, if it doesnt work well, I will try Miren.
-dan
I use Dolphin Mini, it's very fast and great with flash content. Much better than iPad's safari IMO.
didn't know dolphin had a mini version. will try that out.
i still find that keyboard lag is an issue with browsers
While I was going to say Dolphin HD, I installed Dolphin Mini last night based on what people said in this thread, and a big +1 to the Mini! I like the clean interface better than HDs, and seems a little faster too.
I have a simple method of deciding on the browser. I have installed most popular browsers. Now, first I open the stock browser and open this forum site, then I copy the address to the clipboard. Next, I open let's say Miren, paste the address and hit enter, I count 1001, 1002, 1003.....and mark the number for COMPLETE opening. Do the same with other browsers. So far (for me) Miren is the winner (1016) followed by Dolphin mini (1024).
I've got miren, opera and firefox installed.
Miren is the one I use all the time, it seems the most "balanced" for me, its nicely laid out and is pretty fast (faster than the other two for me at least). Prob is it had an issue with large downloads, it would just load like a few kb and say its done. new update seems to have fixed that though
Opera was second best IMO. Firefox was slowest to load and slow to load pages. But both work more like desktop browsers.
I think I might try out dolphin mini

No sorry but Dolphin Mini was rubbish - it did not open some of my required sites - just gives usual message of "Server Failed to Communicate"
therefore

I have to agree
It's like the stock browser on steroids. I gave up on this browser month's ago and never thought i'll go back affer the countless FCs and lag. What did they do differently this time?
I tried the HD a while back and then uninstalled it, after it kept FC'ing me in Google+ trying to read Yegges post. Has it improved that much?
Opera is still faster. I used to love dolphin HD, but one day I installed every browser I could find and ran some tests. The conclusion, opera was blazingly faster. I also downloaded this new Dolphin and still prefer Opera.

how do you do that? there is just zoom
and if you use zoom on websites with tables, the tables will also become bigger, requiring an excessive amount of horizontal scrolling. which makes it pointless

The stock browser fonts are bigger because it uses what it refers to as a "wide viewport." Basically it just enlarges the page to make the fonts and other UI elements match the rest of the Android OS, which are huge compared to the standard fonts and UI elements of desktop operating systems. For instance, the typical task bar on a desktop OS is 24 pixels tall, while Honeycomb's notification bar is 48 pixels tall. If the fonts appear small on your tablet screen, it's because the tablet screen has a much higher DPI than a typical desktop monitor, and current websites are not designed for such a high DPI. Opera is simply displaying the pages as they were originally intended to be displayed on devices of 1280x800 resolution. The problem is that 1280x800 screens used to be 14-15" instead of 10.1".
where have you found v7?? I only see dolphin HD v6.2, dolphin mini 2.2 and for pad v1.0 in the market...
It's not going to be stupid fast, it's going to be the same speed as the stock Android browser, BECAUSE DOLPHIN IS THE STOCK ANDROID BROWSER.
How hard is it to understand that DolphinHD is justa skin on the standard browser, using the same rendering, the same javascript engine, just with a different UI.
Opera Mobile will smoke dolphin, as it's the only mobile browser to use hardware acceleration (not even stock one does), and it very fast anyway.
Tried all browsers. I like Opera best because of the GUI and because it's the fastest IMHO.

Then there is something wrong with your opera. Scrolling in Opera is silky smooth on all but the most intensive web sites.
the only reason I keep Dolphin installed is because the Flash Hardware Acceleration fix does not work on Opera, when that is finally fixed, dolphin will be gone too.
3.2 was suppose to bring hardware acceleration for stock browser, but I don't think it did.

Opengl and other technical assertions aside.... You are in the absolute minority of users who actually has a better experience with the stock browser. In there lies the truth. If everyone was experiencing the same performance as you seem to be saying your getting, then threads like this and other browsers in fact would not exist! It's simple supply and demand.
Stock browser blows for the vast majority of users, whether on stock or custom roms /kernels.
I used the Dolphin browser on the Nexus One and automatically installed it on the Note believing it to still offer the best Web browsing experience with the most add-ins. I suppose if the Google Chrome was available for phones I would use it to match with my laptop. Which browsers work best on the Note for you?

another updated : after played with Dolphin about an hr, i still think stock browser is faster and more responsive
first Firefox Mobile Beta,loving to have all my Desktop Bookmarks in sync

I been using Dolphin Browser HD for month on dell streak and i gotta tell this is one of the best browser on Android. Desktop mode and On demand Flash Plugin is awesome.
I just installed Dolphin HD to see the difference and on the BBC website there is a hell of a difference. The stock browser is far smoother scrolling the page up and down than Dolphin HD

Just a tip I just learned, i know some on XDA already know this,
but if you type about:useragent into the default browser, you get a dialog to pick desktop browser functionality and remove mobile pages.
I personally prefer default browser to any other so this is a good thing.
I know about the useragent ...trouble is you have to keep repeating the process after rebooting or.powering off. A pain after a while
Opera Mobile for me.
dolphin is my favorite
but I had to install opera in order to download all files confused:)
also for me the default browser is faster, but the comfortable features of dolphin no one have it
Stock browser is probably GPU accelerated like the SGS2. Dolphin HD isn't, and since the Note runs at a significantly higher res than the SGS2 it therefore is "slower" than the Stock browser.... at least until ICS comes out for the Note. Then it shouldn't matter since everything will be GPU accelerated.

I'm looking for the best mobile browser for android . I care about simplicity , not flash support blah blah blah . I remember on windows mobile I used uc browser and loved it . Uc browser pretty much sucks for android . I sorta like boat browser mini but I hate how all the web browsers on the market display an entire webpage . I just want a single column browser without having to zoom in and out to view things . And I can't seem to find one hence the post . I hate posting requests like this but I've lost all hope .
