The Best Android Browser


I like everyone used to use chrome on my phone. Well because it is preloaded on to my phone and I also used chrome on my PC. So there was no reason to think otherwise, right? Well, I used to do that before I got into tech. When I was an uninformed user. But you do not need to remain uninformed, as I am here to help you decide which browser is the best for you!

Now, if you are heavily invested in the Google ecosystem. then go on keep on using Chrome. By no means is it a bad browser. It is just a tad bit resource intensive.
However, if you are open to the possibility of change, then here is the best browser for Android according to me.

Brave: 

Brave is founded by the co-founder of Firefox. The browser, however, is based on chromium and the blink engine. What this means is that this browser is wicked fast. It looks and feels exactly like Chrome. So Chrome users should feel right at home. But, it lacks the nags of Chrome. For example, it consumes a lot less battery, when compared to Chrome and also blocks intrusive ads. In my experience, it does not block all ads, only the ones which are annoying. 
The only drawback with using Brave is that it lacks any cloud syncing, so all your data is only on your device. It is to improve privacy according to them. And I think it is the reason for its low resource consumption.
In all Brave is a compelling browser and is my daily driver. It provides only the features which you need and is privacy-focused!

Firefox: 
But, Geekman what if I am a power user? you might ask. Then my friend the browser of choice for you should be Firefox. Firefox is a seriously underrated browser in the Android ecosystem. It is an open-source browser from a reliable name with plenty of features. The browser is just like its desktop counterpart and provides the end user with total control! Everything on the browser can be controlled by you. From the UI to what syncs and what doesn't. If that was not enough the browser has add-ons support. The add-ons ecosystem is also rich and should provide you with all your add-ons need! From blocking ads to playing YouTube videos in the background. You ask Firefox shall do! 
Reading Mode in Firefox
However, all these additional features might make the browser feel bloated, hence I will only recommend Firefox to the geeks out there. Who knows what they are doing. 
Firefox Focus:
This is another browser by Mozilla for the privacy-focused users. It does not save any user data and is very lightweight. Using is like using a browser with incognito mode turned on all the time! Useful when you need to visit those sites which should not be named😉. I like to call it the ultimate privacy browser.

Birds of Prey: Feminism done right

While the world is at a standstill due to the Novel CoronaVirus, I finally got time to return to watching movies and series. The first movie I saw? Birds of Prey and how I regret missing out on this in the cinemas. The movie is great! It is a self-aware, fourth-wall-breaking joy ride. It paints a new picture of Gotham city from the perspective of Harley Quinn and I love this vibrant new Gotham! The movie kicks off with our protagonist Harley, who has recently broken up with the Joker. She is trying to get by all alone and prove herself to the world. The plot of the movie revolves around Bertinelli's fortune, the key to which is in a diamond. Roman Stonis aka The Black Mask is behind the killing of the Bertinelli's’ and now wants their fortune. He hires Harley to recover the diamond and viola! We have ourselves a popcorn crunching, the edge of your seat, jaw-dropping female-led action movie! All the characters were spot on, be it Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn or my second fa...

Spiderman: Homerun

The third reboot of the Spiderman franchise is old news. So is the fact that it was a huge success, but I only got to watch it tonight, Now that I am done watching it, I am going to talk about it. Spiderman homecoming is a good movie. It has a simple story, stellar cast and a director who knows what he is doing. At its core, Spiderman homecoming is a simple coming of age teen flick. And that is what makes Homecoming so good! The movie has very little faults, so let’s get them out of the way first. It lacked action and the soundtrack was average. Done these are my gripes with the movie. Now let’s talk about the good stuff. The movie really fleshes out the characters . Supporting characters like Ned get a lot more screen time then they did on Spiderman’s last outing. Tom Holland is perfectly cast as the web-slinger and for me, he rivals Toby for the best Actor to portray Spidey! For the first time, Spiderman is an actual teen! He has school to deal with and his aunt is not hi...
