Top Browser?

[hossman12]

Idk, dolphin is noticeably faster than stock for me. I love the flash support but my absolute favorite feature is the way it swipes and handles bookmarks.

I must admit not even trying chrome though.. you guys think its worth trying even though im happy w dolphin? What are the main differences between the two browsers?

Some differences are that dolphin supports flash while chrome doesn't. Chrome has a desktop application (Which allows you to sync tabs) while Dolphin doesn't. Speed wise (IMO) they're about the same. I think you should give chrome a try and if you don't like it then uninstall it and continue using dolphin.

I tried syncing bookmarks with dolphin but couldn't get it to work. I like on chrome that there are "desktop bookmarks" so things I have saved on my computer are mobile. It also lets you save bookmarks as mobile bookmarks so just your sites you go to on phone can be saved there.

Note: in the app store it says chrome is 18.94 mb but really is 45+mb when downloaded. Or at least when u go into app manager it is.

Love Dolphin browser with the X-Marks bookmarks add-on. I have used X-Marks for Firefox forever and it works great with Dolphin also.

I mostly use Chrome but I use Dolphin for Flash and I also use the LastPass plugin for password management.

After resetting and losing all my bookmarks, im flirting with 4 browsers including stock and im leaning back towards Firefox... just wish the "full screen" add-on worked and id be happy.
Havent used Chrome in a long time so may give it another chance.. since gettin JB (i still have flash) ive noticed just how little i actually use flash....
..downloadin Chrome now coz ive always really wanted to love it.... im a google fanboy...

It is fast isn't it???! Really fast. Don't know about full-screen mode, haven't seen option for it.

Just got my Samsung GS3 - came from iPhone...

Reading about these browsers, the stock seems quick but I hate how the bookmarks are situated. I downloaded dolphin hd and am thinking of downloading the chrome browser. Most of the comments I searched for were a month or more ago and I see chrome has updated some stuff since then.

One thing I noticed, dolphin is only 5 mb or so but chrome is 18.99 mb, why so big and the big diff??

What is your browser experience...?

I use Chrome on my laptop and ipad and find that I like the mobile experience as well. Plus all my bookmarks are always available to me no matter what gadget I'm using.

Ditto here - very user friendly

Give "quick browser" a try. It has:

- quick menus on the left and right side of screen edge
- two layers in the quick menu
- and a bunch of other features

It is an add-on for Dolphin that backs up your bookmarks to their cloud so you can access them from any computer. They have an add-on for Firefox (I use on my laptops and desktop) also.

Yeah the speed shocked me.
Lack of full screen could be a deal breaker though.
Are there add-ons for Chrome?

I used to use Dolphin until they started making way too many changes that killed the speed of the app. I use Chrome now that I have a phone capable of it!
