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

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.

I think most of us use dolphin... Its the best all around. Good size, better reaction time, looks sweet, & its a freakin dolphin...! Plus its always being updated.

Trying hard to move from dolphin hd to either stock browser or chrome beta,but they just seem so limited in set up options compared to dolphin.in stock I can't group bookmarks for similar topics into folders,in chrome I can't seem to stop it display mobile pages on spine sites.If any one has made the switch some tips would be great

I use opera mini on 3g as it has great data compression, no flash support however. I use the stock browser on WiFi or if I'm wanting to view a flash site.

What browser does everyone use?
I just got dolphin with the "jetpack" add on works damn good so far.
I use Chrome, Firefox Aurora and Orweb (for banking).
Thinking of getting Dolphin.

quick ics is my favorite because of the quick controls and how customizable they are. can't imagine not using quick controls for surfing the web once you get used to them.
Naked browser and firefox are my goto browsers. Used to use maxthon and dolphin.. but dont trust them...

I was using Dolphin prior to getting the GN2, now rocking Chrome
I use chrome for most stuff and the stock browser for flash.

I use the stock browser since some of the internet doesn't feel like switching from Flash videos, but I do like using Chrome from time to time.
+1 for chrome
Chome, because it syncs my pages and bookmarks. I like using Chrome-to-Phone too.
Your not the only odd one bro because I rather use the stock too. (My opinion) It makes know sense to use another browser when the stock does it all. As long as I can get flash with the stock I'm Good.:thumbup:
Swyped by Me & My GN2
I like Chrome
Chrome, use it almost exclusively on my other devices because of how nicely everything syncs
I'd say Chrome is my favorite Android web browser so far, but the Firefox Beta browser is quickly becoming more of a daily driver. I like how Firefox Beta handles flash heavy pages and video content.
for general web browsing - opera
for more desktop experience - firefox or aurora
for pron/videos - aurora - supports flash and has on of the the best html5 video support, especially if you choose iPad UA. chrome is #2 for this.
While I like chrome, I always go back to dolphin because of the plugins (especially Lastpass).

dolphin
Been using the AOSP browser since I'm rooted. I enjoy it for the Flash support.

Hi, I've been using Firefox since I got my Ion back in June 2012, but lately I feel it has gotten a lot slower and it went from crashing the home screen every once in a while to every time I use the browser. By crashing the home screen I mean forcing all the icons and widgets to reload once I exit the browser.
So I'm curious as to what browsers are you guys using now.
The stock browser is very good, fast and has some options
I use it with wifi networks. For 3G I use opera mini

Maxthon for Android and PC

Stock browser.
I was using Chrome and I liked it a lot, but suddenly, after one update, performance dropped horrendously. It was when they introduced smooth scrolling.
Stock browser...its the best!!

Chrome is good because of connectivity with pc and syncing but it's kinda slow compared to dolphin or stock. And also chrome doesn't support fullscreen which is a negative for me.
Mostly I use dolphin and its really good and now there is a plugin for connectivity with chrome and syncing tabs between pc and phone. Whenever I am on 3g I use opera mini, it is really good with data usage and pages open faster because they are compressed.

Dolphin Browser,because it was (again WAS) a perfect and fast browser that I ever had when first time installing it...now,after a ton of update for the browser,it occasionally suddenly crash...I can only bear with it since it was a perfect browser for me

ICS+ browser.
Opera mini & stock browser.
Naked browser
I use ICS Browser +
Based on stock Browser, it feels lightweight and fast, but with many extras and an intuitive handling.
Those that say chrome, cos of the sync with pc, you do know the stock browser does that as well don't you? I found chrome And stock almost identical apart from a few ui differences

I currently use Mozilla Firefox but I'm looking for a change. It has some really awesome features but web browsing is really slow compared to other browsers.
So what browser do you use/recommend?
I use chrome on all my devices and computers

boat... I've tried alot of them: chrome, atomic, opera, firefox, dolphin, stock, AOSP
and I like boat the best.
I like Chrome and Dolphin
Aosp with chrome sync. Kind of plain but I find its the best.

Check out Next browser. It's really good, I definitely recommend it.

Dolphin. It gives me what I need and some.
I use Dolphin mobile. Its fast and has useful plugins like save to Evernote and Pocket. You can select exit and delete cookies and history.

Firefox, for the sync function (I use it on my desktop and laptop aswell).
Boatbrowser used to be my favorite, but that one had to go since it was too buggy (was getting 50% loading stop bug all the time).
AOSP would probably be my second choise...
Tried Chrome, Dolphin, Next Browser and Opera and never liked any of them.

I use Chrome Beta. I base my decision on which browser to use on each of my devices by pitting them against each other on a multitude of benchmarks to determine performance and reliability.

Chrome, on all devices, and sometimes AOSP because it can sync my bookmarks too.
