Anyone have thoughts on which one is better to use? I know chrome can sync all your google bookmarks, which is nice.......but i haven't found much fault in the default browser so far.

Just wondering if anyone's noticed any significant differences between the two.
 
I prefer Chrome just because it syncs pages and bookmarks across devices. The stock browser is pretty good as well, but not for me.
 
I use Chrome. Not a fan of the AT&T browser bar in the stock (even though I turned it off, knowing its there at all angers me), and I'm not super into Flash being supported (see comment about browser bar).

I actually use the Chrome Beta version exclusively.
 
I prefer chrome as well since I use it at home and the accross device sync is great for me.

I couldnt stand that pop up thing in the bottom of the stock browser.
 
I have the DE version so don't have any AT&T stuff on the browser. The default browser I feel is faster. Chrome seemed a bit laggy... also I can't move around the page after I zoomed in on it. Not sure if there is something I am doing wrong.

The default browser can sync with Google Bookmarks but I supposed you can load the page you had up on your computer.
 
Stock browser, why? because it's much much faster than chrome and has flash (can be enabled though settings).
 
I use Boat browser, prefer it as its a tabbed browser.

I went to adobe.com archives downloaded flash player cause many sites still haven't updated to the html5. Chrome doesn't support flash so I use the stock browser for my flash sites and chrome for everything else....Don't know if that helps...

I am having trouble finding Safari in the Play Store, so I am using the stock browser. ;)

Has anyone tried Opera ?
 
I've been using stock on mine...so far I am finding it faster than Chrome. Have not seen the toolbar other people are talking about on my T-Mo US version.

Firefox, it syncs with ALL my desktops, and not just bookmarks, but also history and open tabs, so I can move tabs from device to device at will. Also, without ads it's a lot faster because a lot of ad servers are terribly slow or non-responsive slowing the page down. And lastly, I can expect some modicum of privacy protection using Firefox, hard to do with an advertiser building your browser.

This. The stock HTC Browser which I believe is almost an exact replication of Androids Native browser is the best browser I've used on a phone. I have not tried Chrome on the One because it lags like it does on every other phone. I don't care how many cores you throw at it.
