using xscope, but dolphin mini seems faster/better to handle!

Honestly I've used em all. Nothing compare's to the speed and stability of Miren's, followed by dolphin mini

Stock browser is good enough for me.

I prefer Dolphin HD. I noticed that it loads pages a little faster than the stock browser. I also like the fact that I can actually 'exit' the browser as opposed to it continuing to run in the background.
I used Opera very briefly on my Desire Z and though it was amazing on my old Blackberry phones, I think Dolphin has it beat on this platform.

Whay do u think about DOLPHIN MINI?

I use the stock browser most of the time and think is the best out of all of them

I haven't tried Dolphin Mini. With the power of the Desire Z, Dolphin HD runs plenty fast and zippy for me

I prefer stock over any other

I use Dolphin HD. It's fast, I like the ergonomy (gestures, toolbars on both sides), it's multitabs, it can read Flash and has add-ons (I can easily switch between desktop and mobile views for example), web pages are automatically resized to fit the screen width when you're zooming.
It's just perfect!

Dolphin HD - hands down... I hate the fact that you never actually exit out of the browser for stock and all other 3rd party browsers... till then Dolphin HD is the way to go
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I was using dolphin mini but I missed the notification bar I n full screen and have been using stock. Now I miss tabs. Any browser have both of these? I don't care about flash...

Miren > Dolphin

I used stock a long time, switched to Opera (since I liked it in WM) which felt heavy and laggy, moved further to Dolphin HD (which has been my daily browser for the last weeks), but am trying Miren again now. I really prefere it's UI, but I've earlier experienced random crashes when downloading etc... Crossing fingers now thought
/edit
DL'ing workes like a charm now May have been the "GB support" they added a few days ago...

So wrong about saying: i hate the fact i cant exit 3rd party browsers... download miren, press menu, presse exit and think hmmmm.... Then browse and see that its a lot better and less overbloated then dolphin hd...

I've tried Miren as some of you find it better and if that's the case it sounds logical to give it a try.
There's one dealbreaker for me: when I zoom in it doesn't resize the page to fit the screen. Have I missed something?

stock browser is best imho.
2nd is dolphin mini, if it had all the features of stock
3rd is dolphin hd, it's just too much though
4th is meh, who cares

Stock browser is my favorite but I use Opera and Miren sometimes because downloads sometimes screw up on file sharing sites. They never fail on Opera or Miren. Miren tends to crash on occasion and Opera is heavy on memory so stock still is the best for normal use imo.

Best browser?

Which is the best PROVEN browser on Android? please give opinions also, I use xscope at the moment but is there a better one out there? I used to use dolphin mini but changed, what's the best?
Thanks

That will always come down to personal preference. Personally I like Dolphin HD, it's almost as functional as a full desktop browser and supports plugins

I Tried Xscope but it didn't let me manage my bookmarks into folders and Dolphin used to crash when starting up. Now I am using Opera which surprised me as I hated it years ago on symbian but its really good these days.

Gonna have to go with opera, myself. I particularly like that you can set it to use less bandwidth while not on wifi.

Opera Mobile is pretty fast, but lacks flash I think. The full opera is pretty much the same as any other browser.

Opera Mobile does have Flash support & seems to be the fastest...Dolphin browser is good as it can get add-ons as our normal PC browser add-ons...

Easily answered: DOLPHIN HD

Will try dolphin

Bumping this thread... I used to have an iPhone (it was the only way of getting unlimited data in the UK at one point, shoot me :cyclops so outright smoothness in browsing means the most to me. I use an old version of Opera Mobile (11.10.ADR-1107051709) below... The hardware acceleration really helps. I think this site is legit, if not mods please remove... It has flash and you can set the user agent to "Desktop" if not other to other machines.

Opera Mini is the best for saving on CPU/battery and is fastest because the rendering goes on on the server, but 404 File Not Founds come back annoyingly on secondary Google hits.
The newer versions of Opera Mobile seem more choppy, and I can't stand the webkit browsers (everything else). On ICS webkit becomes hardware accelerated, but I like my games too much not to stick to GB.

I prefer Dolphin hands down. If not dolphin then the Miren browser

A bit of a bump, but I'm very happy with the new Opera Mobile (12.1.1). It's smoother than any other browser I'm aware of on Xperia Play + Gingerbread. The only problem is it takes a few seconds to start up (and you can get a "Application not Responding" during that sometimes).

I tried a couple dolphin crashed on startup for me alot but when it worked was great but I prefere maxthon stable pretty fast and simple
Xperia Play-
Dixperia 2
V6 Supercharger
Lightning Launcher
LFC!

Thanks for the answers and comments

I use Dolphin Beta & stock browser.
Dolphin Beta has some minor issues that need to be fixed while the stock browser works fine but is missing a lot of features compared to other browsers.

try using dolphin browser with the dolphin jet-pack add-on, i use and its pretty fast.

i use the stock one ever since... especially in ICS the stock has been much improved!

If you want more customization, dolphin browser might be the one, otherwise, use the minimalist opera mobile.

Use miren browser, stock, dolphin hd, x scope and a couple others but opera and firefox don't support flash.

Opera mini dosent suports flash, but opera mobile suports because i came from a galaxy s2 and i always used the opera mobile in flash sites without any problem...
I can see the flash content, but cant play videos on the browser.

I have the same problem. Probably compatibility problem with ICS. It hasn't been updated since November after all.

I really like Chrome but it's just not stable enough for daily use.

Firefox is out for me. It's the only browser that doesn't properly display Khmer Unicode.

Ya... Chrome is a bit buggy with the sense keyboard...
I'm still sticking to the stock browser until the bug is fixed...

that's why I use stock one ATM. Chrome is fast on wifi connections though

In my 4 android dolphin use is simple, easy to use, does not consume many resources, I would say the perfect browser

Will try the dolphin

I use Opera on all of my devices and computers.
So it's Opera Mobile on my One V.

For me dolphin browser is the right choice.

Opera Mini
I like Opera Mini... (NOT Opera Mobile)

Google chrome works good for me!

Opera mini here too

Opera mobile here. It works flawless and it's faster than stock by far.

Opera Mini works great for me.

Still stock for me.
I like the labs-quick control feature. But haven't tried other browsers to compare

Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox both are good fou me and stock one also....

Ok,
Thank you for your reply

Hey,
I use Dolphin HD too, it's a great browser (gesture, vocal recognition, etc.).
You can check out the "Dolphin Browser Mini" version. It's the light version of Dlphin HD ! Nice if you want only the "essential".

Opera is good, but takes way too long too start, dolphin is more advanced
