What Mobile Browser Are You Using?

Basically what the thread title asks. I'm using Brave on Android, which is a fork of Chromium from former Mozilla employees. I used to use standard Chrome before but found it to be a battery and memory hog.
 
Samsung internet beta. Has a dark theme that works so well on almost every site.
If you're using it on gaf just make sure your preferences are on light theme cause using two dark themes will practically make it so you cant read shit lol.
 
Safari. Didn't experience any benefits with Chrome that I could see, so have stuck with the built-in.

My next phone will be Android though, I don't have any great love for Safari. It's just what's there.
 
IE

'cause I'm one of those freaks with a Windows Phone and am genuinely sad the platform is basically dead

As a developer, I hate Safari. It's basically the IE 5/6/7 of modern times.
 
Safari. Does what it needs to do (for me, at least) so I haven't been itching for something different.

I used Opera when I had a Blackberry though.

Chrome
 
Naked Browser Pro

what the heck is Naked Browser?

An Android browser that's only 272KB in size. Yes, 272 kilobytes.
It uses Android's built-in web browsing engine (Android System WebView), which is itself based on Chrome.
It has no extra permissions and doesn't spy on your browsing activity.
Its minimal nature makes it easy on battery life compared to e.g. Firefox (from my experience).
Its main downside is that the UI has a bit of a learning curve.

I bought the Pro version (using Google survey money) because Naked Browser is that good.

 
Blackberry, use Chrome. I've tried a couple others but I end up just switching back. May not even be the best but it works for me. I'm much more particular when it comes to my desktop browser.
 
Opera, but only because it feels the most comfortable to use. Latest versions are a crashing mess and I'm looking to switch, but all the popular browsers suck in daily use...
 
Safari on my iPhone so I can get ad blocking with Purify.

uhhh... you have heard of the App Store haven't you? You can download other browsers for iOS like Chrome from there.

Aren't they all inhibited due to Apple's restrictions? Or is that no longer the case?
