Top 5 browsers for Android

One of the main reasons why people buy Android Phones or Tablets is productivity. You can surf websites on the go, easily without the restriction of using the browser which came with your android device.  Well the stock browser is also fine but the manufacturers don’t include a lot of features more over everyone has their own choice of browsers that they prefer on their PC, so we all love to have the same favourite browser on our Android device. Let me share the list of the 5 best and most downloaded browsers from Android market.

1. Opera Mini web browser: Personally my favourite browser for many reasons. The best part that I like about this browser is its unique data compression technology which makes loading of pages faster and even uses less mobile data. So you can not enjoy faster surfing but you can save money of your mobile data plan too. You will get the same kind of experience as in Opera for PC. You can open multiple tabs and switch between them. This is definitely something worth trying and it’s free too.

2. Dolphin Browser HD: This browser is like a blessing for android tablets and smartphones. This is very fast and fun filled web browser. It has got very high ratings and good reviews. Few of its unmatched features include gesture to access websites that you use the most, wonderful add-ons, speed dial to visit favourite websites with one touch, easily switchable tab browsing, etc. The free version has got all the features but it keeps ad running. So if you want ad free version you can purchase it from here.

3. Firefox:  This is the official Firefox app developed by Mozilla. Mozilla has tried to integrate best of its desktop app features in this android app. Bookmarking any website is pretty simple in firefox. The best thing is you can sync all your bookmarks, tabs, saved passwords, history, etc anytime from any device. It has got amazing add-ons. You can also choose from multiple search engines for your query, choose themes from a vast range of themes, typing suggestions, one touch bookmarking, advanced security, etc.

4. SkyFire Web Browser : This is very high rated and reviews browser for android. It is one of the oldest browser app for android devices and its not updated every now and then like other apps. It supports rich flash videos even on mobiles which otherwise are incapable to play flash videos. Its referred to as Social browser for its easy integration with facebook and twitter. Some fantastic features include feed reader of facebook, popular pages as recommended by facebook friends, facebook like button on every page, powerful search option, easy sharing services, private browsing, etc. You need to purchase Video License key for the “Video Optimization” feature.

5. Chrome Beta: Well this was the only missing app in browser list in android market from a long time. Google has launched this super hit web browser in android market. It quite new and under development phase, so they have still kept the name “beta”. It has been made available in few countries and is not available in India yet. It has got all the functions that you have used in desktop version of chrome. Syncing is very easy if you use chrome in your PC, send pages from desktop version to android version with one click, easily switch between multiple tabs and it is very fast browser. It’s currently available for 4.0 Ice cream sandwich. The app is pretty heavy but it’s not an issue with powerful devices.

Well I shared the best browsers according to me and you can share your favourite browsers too. Have a happy browsing.
