I still use Chrome since I use it on all my devices, but I'm slightly annoyed that the stock browser seems to be a smoother experience. I'm bone stock though. Anybody else notice this?

Same here, I've used Dolphin on every phone I've had but the stock browser on this Nexus is pretty solid

Using stock browser here on my Note, have tried Chrome and Dolphin and they both kinda suck
compared to the stock browser.

I complain about this all the time on twitter. Its not even so much page load times. Scrolling, pinch to zoom, and general UI performance is just better on the stock browser. I wish the developers working on stock would get together with chrome guys to fix this. I really want to switch to chrome full time.

Get the stock browser+ and turn on the added dropdown type side menus

Chrome is faster than the stock browser for me on JB, and was almost as fast as the stock browser on ICS. Scrolling isn't as fast, but zoom performance, page loading, and interacting with page content all seem more fluid and responsive.

If you're talking about interaction and responsiveness, especially when typing/editing in the address bar, try turning off "Search and URL Suggestions" under 'Content' in Chrome's settings, or making sure that "Preload webpages" isn't set to 'Always' under 'Bandwidth Management', also in Chrome's settings.

Same here. Chrome has been very disappointing to me. It has a nicer UI, sure, but it isn't as fast. I'm not sure if it's just because it isn't well suited for ICS or what, but it just isn't as good as the stock browser.

I just started using Dolphin and I'm not impressed. Chrome and stock seem faster. Also, I can figure out how to access bookmarks and "find in page" without using sonar, but talking to my phone isn't alway realistic. (Like when I'm in the bathroom at work.)

Swipe to the right and you'll see the bookmarks.

It says bookmarks, but it seems to show me all "most visited" sites. I only have 1 bookmark.

I'm writing down your user name for future reference. Just in case you sell your phone
here or on eBay... no offense, I'd rather not buy a used phone that has been
"contaminated" like George Costanza's book at Brentanos Bookstore.

if you don't mind... post the last 5 digits of your phone's serial number.... I'd like to
blacklist it.

I have never take my phone(smart or dumb) or any other electronic device with me
to the bathroom. Only paper(book/news/paper) for me!

I do much of my smartphone-ing while sitting on the toilet. And from other's I've talked to, it seems to be pretty common. You better never buy a used phone; you never know.

the only noticeable difference for me are:

-chrome loads pages faster

-stock browser is fitted perfectly on any page i visit (compared to adjusting the zoom in chrome)

-chrome looks and feels nicer

- tabbing in chrome rocks

[georgeanderson]

Never really tried stock. Went with Chrome as soon as I got my GNex. Will give it a try.
