The Best Browsers for Android Smartphones


Skyfire Web Browser 4.0Firefox
Opera Mobile web browserDolphin Browser® HD


Android Gingerbread comes with a generic stock browser which may satisfy some but if you are really serious about surfing the web and are constantly loading up your browser for searches then you would want a browser with much more user-friendly options

The stock browser gets the job done, but Android users have so many more options that are even faster, lighter, stronger, smarter—whatever superlative you seek, really—than the stock browser. Whether you want to customize a gesture-based command, block mobile ads with a plug-in, or shrink your bandwidth consumption by 90 percent, there's an alternative mobile browser for you.

Dolphin Browser HD
This is the most popular browser for Android platform. It offers the most plug-ins in a user-friendly versatile interface. It also offers many features you cannot find on any other browser, such as gesture commands, bookmark sorting, RSS feed factor, multi-touch pinch zoom and compact page toggles.

Opera Mobile web browser

Opera Mobile
Opera’s rendering engine and server-side compression enables web pages to load faster on your mobile device.  It has a speed dial function which lists all your favorite sites on one page making it easier to go to where you want faster. You can have several websites open at the same time and be able to switch easily between them using Opera tab feature. Opera also has aurl auto completion feature which allows you to effortlessly enter addresses of URL’s with Opera guessing the entire URL before you finish typing its address.

Opera Mini web browser

Dolphin Mini is the slimmer, faster version of Dolphin HD, purportedly taking up far less bandwidth. Plus it only requires Android 1.6 and up as opposed to Android 2.0.1 and up for its full-fledged sibling. It's a speed demon too, although Opera Mini (see below) loads non-JavaScript pages faster. Dolphin Mini also skimps a bit on performance, especially for Flash content.
