Android Options Mean "Best" Browsers Might Surprise You

Posted by timothy on from the an-actual-figurative-ecosystem dept.

An anonymous reader writes with this quote from Tom's Hardware: "Due to Apple's anti-3rd-party browser stance, and Windows RT's IE-only advantage on the 'Desktop,' Android is the only mobile platform where browser competition is thriving. The results are pretty surprising, with the long-time mobile browsers like Dolphin, Maxthon, Sleipnir, and the stock Android browser coming out ahead of desktop favorites like Firefox, Opera, and even Chrome. Dolphin, thanks to its new Jetpack HTML5 engine, soars ahead of the competition."

    Yes, in 1998 Apple, Amiga and BeOS all included their own browsers with their OS's.

    And I'm the fucking idiot.

    They're Apple's devices

    Then I guess I had better give the one I've got back.
