Fastest mobile browsers 2016: Chrome, Firefox, Opera or another?

Fastest mobile browsers 2016

You can guess, but we bet you won't guess which is the fastest mobile browser. You have more options in predicting which browser gives you the best mobile internet experience. Is it Google's Chrome, Apple's Safari, Opera, maybe Firefox or something else? Why is this information important? Since data traffic through mobile browsers is twice that of other applications, choosing a mobile browser is not such a trivial decision. Find out below which one is the best to have in 2016! Chrome is by far the most popular, but is it also the fastest?

The fastest mobile browser of 2016 is a fairly unknown browser Puffin, which is being tested by the company Morgan Stanley beating all the big names like Chrome, Firefox and Opera. It boasts the largest percentage of mobile browser users, according to market research company NetMarketShare Chrome, which you own just 46% share. They follow him Safari with 33 ter Android's default browser and browser Opera. The criteria by which users choose mobile browsers are different popularity, appearance, performance and speed. With the latter, we have to pay attention to page loading speed, HTML support, efficiency of Java scripts...

Speed of mobile browsers.

On the processing test a Java script the best performer was the Puffin browser, which set ten times faster time from Chrome, who landed in inglorious last place. But speed isn't everything, and it shouldn't be the deciding factor when choosing a mobile browser! There is also an element of frugality to consider. Saving memory is one of our main concerns, so choosing a browser that is as greedy as possible. Here, on the example of five web pages opened at the same time, Chrome did the best, which was four times more efficient in this category than Puffin, which found itself at the very tail of the ranking. The second was Opera, Firefox but only the seventh. In the category overall efficiency and speed of operation (loading speed, running Java scripts, zooming in and out of pages, processing graphic elements...) Opera swung to the top, and Chrome was close behind. Puffin did better here again and was third.

What does all this tell us? Yes there is no perfect mobile browser, but the Puffin browser comes closest to it, taking into account that you have the least on your mobile device 3 GB of memory. Chrome is by far the most popular, but the most popular, as many examples in music and film teach us, is not necessarily the best. But Google's "star" browser also needs to be defended. Admittedly, it is among the slowest, but occupies very little memory, which is why the use is smooth and so much more reliable than with the competition.

Chrome isn't the best, but it's the most reliable choice.
Chrome isn't the best, but it's the most reliable choice.

If your mobile phone does not have a built-in system memory with a capacity of at least 3 GB, it is otherwise the best choice is the Firefox browser, and next in line are Opera and Safari. These offer the best ratio of speed and reliability.
