I downloaded this about a month ago and have been using it as my default browser for a while now.

I'm trying to break my dependency on Google Services as I've found chrome to be a little to snoopy not to mention how bloated it is and its become slower over the years.

So far I'm really loving this browser!

Thinks I like:
  • Dark theme
  • Bottom controls - controls for tabs, settings, etc on bottom of screen make it easier to use one handed
  • Swiping for page navigation - swipe from left or right side to go forward or back in history. No need to hit a button.
  • Sync and continue with devices - laptops, computers, etc....
  • Performance - seems to run very fast and efficient. Uses less battery than chrome.

My biggest wish/complaint would be that accessing favorites or browser history is still at the top of the screen and hard for me to reach with one hand.

I'd love to hear others thoughts on this browser.

Right now I rank this above any other browser I've used. Chrome, Samsung, Opera, etc....

Nice. I was not aware there is Edge for Android.

I use Edge once in a while at work when I need a different browser than Chrome
