I'm using Chrome. Seems to work the best. I don't see what's wrong with chrome. I've done the sun spider test, I don't see any real world difference in a accordance with the test.

Re: what browser is everyone usung?

What about chrome is sucking for you? Maybe you can try Dolphin

Dolphin is (has been) my favorite browser but there seems to be a serious problem with its compatibility with the S6 so now it freezes and crashes all the time. I've emailed them about this so hopefully there will be a quick fix soon but, as of now, Dolphin is essentially unusable on the S6.

I always have a tendency to pull the edges in dolphin when zooming or scrolling side to side. It drives me crazy. So, it's like bookmarks on the left and control panel on the right, popping out all the time. Is there a way to turn it off? I do like the browser for other reason.

I only had Chrome loaded on my Verizon S6 Edge. I could not find the stock browser usually present on Galaxy phones. Did I miss a setting?

Re: what browser is everyone usung?

To those using chrome do you use Chrome or Chrome Beta?

I'm not sure what's up with one listed beta since it's been in beta for years. Maybe that's my problem? I just don't like how you access bookmarks and how it closes the app when you close your last tab.

I like Chrome, but I wish there was a way to move the options button from the upper right of the screen to the upper left. Would make accessing favorites much easier when using my left hand.

I switched to Chrome yesterday after having issues with a few websites on the stock browser.

I don't have an S6 just yet but I'd be using Dolphin on it. Does the flash and adblock plugin for Dolphin work with the S6? I presume so, just making sure. Those two are a must for any phone/browser I use given my inclination to watch sports. Absolute must.

Re: what browser is everyone usung?

I am very confused now.

For me Chrome was the way to go but on the s6 is laggy as hell. I come from a nexus 4 and scrolling was totally fluid. On the s6 is not and it annoys me.

Firefox is better but I like Chrome.

I can't understand how can this happen on this phone.

How about trying Opera since it has text reflow. No more scrolling left and right to read.

You can turn off that swipe in from the left and right feature in Dolphin. Just go into Dolphin settings and you can toggle it on or off.

Hope this helps.
