What Browser are you using?


I find the stock browser to be best on battery life, I installed Dolphin HD so far its ok, I had it in desktop mode but it absolutely murdered my battery.
 
I used to use Dolphin but found little things I didn't like. Then I tried Opera but it would not properly render a few sites I go to. I went back to stock and it has been best for me /w a SGSII and it is crazy smooth too.
 
opera mobile. opera is the best web browser of all time. except for the 1% of websites that don't get rendered correctly on it =\
 
Opera Mobile for a long time but I recently switched back to Dolphin HD. They each have their upsides and downsides. Opera seems faster but Dolphin is more polished.

I've been in a browser-switching mood of late; I also switched from Firefox to Chrome on my PC.
 
Used Dolphin HD for a while on the D1, but switched to Opera Mobile exclusively on the Tbolt since I had the storage space for it.

I use Opera too, but it needs a better method of tabbed browsing. Other than that, it's great.

not off the top of my head, but even on my desktop, i use IE9 as a backup when a site starts acting goofy. a good example on my desktop would be Mint.com. When bringing up the list of my accounts the pop up box of accounts wouldn't be centered, and i wouldn't be able to scroll in it. w/ firefox or ie9 it's correctly displayed. I'm pretty sure some websites just wont show correctly on a mobile browser either.

The card tabs are a great imo for a cell phone!

Dolphin HD here. Mostly because of the lastpass plugin. And that I wasn't a fan of opera's interface really. Tried FF, but seemed way to buggy. Stock HTC is a bit jittery when I last used it.
 
Always preferred the stock browser on my Droid and Transformer. Unfortunately the stock browser on the Transformer has this issue where text input with the keyboard dock is extremely slow, so when I needed to do any text entry I had to use Opera.
 
Pretty much just Dolphin HD from day 1. I may have to install Opera to see what all the hubbub is about.
 
I have been using Miren for a long time. I've tested Opera and Dolphin HD but couldn't get used to any of them.
 
ive tried pretty much all of them, but usually end up back on stock browser after a while. when FaotD put xscope pro on there, i tried it as well. ive been using it since, i like it so far. there are things that annoy the fuck out of me tho, like having to load the full web page that it is on before allowing you to change the address. it tends to lag out a lot too, but im pretty sure its vzw service issues causing it. i like the easy full screen switch, as well as the tabs at the top if i care to use them. i wish it didnt take so damn long to hold click for menus on all of them, too.
