Yes without internet what’s the point of using smartphone. So to interact with internet, we need some kinda tool, that has a interface. Here comes the BROWSER. Its main job is to connect us to the internet.
So why not we just search for Browser and install any random browser from playstore and start interacting with internet. And why there are so many Browsers to choose from, confused right? Yeah there are many Browsers with its own unique features other than just surfing web. And now we’re only going to talk about Speed here, because everyone loves Fast browsing experience.
1. Opera Touch
This is my favorite browser in this segment. Because it has amazing modern interface and pretty good looking and also I’m having smoothest experience from this browser. Yes it is a new browser from famous Opera. The interface is clean and simple to use, all there is just one button at bottom. But that one button can do most of the jobs that we can expect from a browser. Flow is introduced, it is kinda timeline and online sync tool.

3. CM Browser
CM browser is the best light weight browser in my opinion. Because it’s main theme is to block annoying popup ads and intrusive ads. And also the coolest feature is that there is a in-built video downloader. Hence whenever you watch or play videos, it would show a option to download that video. And it is secure browser too, since they use some best antivirus engine to power up the browser.

4. Chrome
The default browser in most Android phones. The Chrome browser actually gives faster and smoother experience to the users. And the main advantage of this browser is everything is synced with google, so just sign in with our google account and boom, all the saved passwords, bookmarks, and even we can open tabs from PC. And what’s making even special is, chrome has a AMP viewer which instantly opens a website without even loading it, pretty cool right.

5. Puffin
Puffin Web Browser already has the crown for Fastest browserfor android in some aspect of ratio. And it’s true, because it has a cloud based algorithm, which helps to load the web page faster than others. And also Puffin developers claim that it can save upto 90% of data when normally browsing. What’s the niche feature that I personally like is, that it has a virtual mouse and keyboard with scroll button, so that we can use a desktop site without any worry.

6. Microsoft Edge
Everyone has to be familiar with Edge browser on the Windows 10. Since it is a product of Microsoft, if we use Microsoft other products very often, this browser comes in handy. Because it has feature, that enables us to interact with the browser in the PC and mobile at the same time and even it shows the timeline. On the PC side without no doubt Edge browser is the fastest but the memory consumption and lack of plugins made Chrome popular. But on the android side they are pretty good with fast scrolling and animation. But only downside is that this is heavy browser so it could run bad in low end phones.

Another lightweight browser and it is tiny but it can easily compete with chrome or edge browsers. Because it packs pretty powerful features in it like flash player support, html 5 support, no image mode, additional plugins, speed mode etc,. And this app is lesser than 10Mb, can’t believable right. The only annoying thing is the recommended ads in the home screen, other than that this mini browser is pretty cool.
