What Internet browser do you use? I am currently using Google Chrome. Just wondering what browser most people thinks is best.

Re: Internet browser

I go between chrome and Firefox. Both are pretty good. I'm used to using Firefox on my computer

Re: Internet browser

firefox obviously. Black background addon is my secret sauce for batter battery life. Also faster, less security risk that can bring down the whole system.

Re: Internet browser

Chrome all the way. Have had my Note 4 since October and maybe have spent a grand total of three minutes on the stock browser. The UI is garbage. It would be nice if Chrome supported the S Pen Hover but I can live without it. No need to install any other browser on my phone. Use Firefox on my Macbook though.

Re: Internet browser

That's a bit alarmist IMO. I've used the stock Samsung browser on my old Note 2, OG Note 10.1 and now Note 4 and have never had any type of issue. So I think it's a misnomer to state it's any type of security risk. This isn't Windows running Internet Explorer (its Active controls and deep hooks into the OS is what makes it problematic). :)

well, it takes time for hackers to generating enough interests and programs. It may well be pretty safe in the past, but do a search on android security flaws, more and more are emerging, FREAK being the most recent one.

Its better safe than sorry.

I used to love Firefox but I'm not sure if it's lollipop that it doesn't like or what. It crashes and does weird things now. I started using Dolphin and I have no complaints so far. I have Chrome downloaded but have yet to try it.

I like the Samsung stock browser for its speed and Firefox for the way it works with some sites. Firefox mostly for flash content and drop down menus.
