Top Web Browsers For Smartphones And Tablets

Today's smartphones come with quite capable default browsers. However, it's always good to have alternatives. Thankfully, much like the computers, modern smartphone operating systems let you choose the web browser of your choice. On iOS and Windows Phone, these third-party apps don't make much of a difference because Apple and Microsoft don't allow browser developers to embed their own rendering engine. Basically, Android is the only major smartphone platform where web browsers actually offer a different user experience. So don't be surprised to find Android exclusive apps in this list:

1. Chrome
Google's desktop browser Chrome made its way to the Android and iOS platform. In little time, it has become one of the most popular smartphone browser. It features relatively faster search and navigation controls compared to the stock Android browser. Opening and switching between tabs is also quite swift. You can search using voice commands. The sync between the smartphone and desktop version is effortless. There's also an Incognito mode for those paranoid about their privacy. But, hey Google might be paying extra attention to Incognito window, hoping to scrape some sensitive information.
