Alternative Mobile Browsers Tested For Speed, Usability, JavaScript Rendering

Posted by timothy on from the but-can-it-run-slashdot dept.

CNETNate writes "Do Opera Mobile, Skyfire, or Mozilla's Fennec have the power to take down the BlackBerry browser, IE on Windows Mobile, or Safari on the iPhone? This lengthy test aimed to find out. Speed, Acid3 compliance, JavaScript rendering capabilities, and general subjective usability were all tested and reviewed. So were Opera Mini and the default Symbian browser, but these two were unable to complete some of the tests and benchmarks."

    What about the Pre's browser? It'd be interesting to see how it differed from Safari.

    The only difference that matters: It's not on the iPhone.

    Is that the same Nokia browser that's on the E71? It fucking wanks cats for a hobby.
