First of all, I know noone really like mobile browsing then on computer.
But it's really handy when you need it. Eg, I use when I study, turning on PC/ my netbook gets me distracted relatively easier than my Android.

There is default browser, steel, dolphin, opera mini etc.

I use fake firefox to cover default browser.
It's still default browser but just firefox icon and name, this really PWNed all my non android friends. rclxms.gif

I love dolphin's interface and ability to use gestures. It's laggy for me though. hmm.gif

I'm mainly using opera mini though since the speed is ridiculously fast. rclxm9.gif

Wapedia for searching wikipedia article.
It's wikipedia specific browser, only load wikipedia(actually wapedia.com), faster and very convienient.
Use this a lot while studying since I can't click outside links and go to unproductive sites, tongue.gif

As of now only opera mini satisfy me speed-wise, maybe firefox (ehem... I meant the default browser...) will be faster on froyo(as google promised)

What's your opinion on browsers?

I use the default browser. With Froyo now officially supporting multi-touch, its an excellent experience..Speed, rendering, everything is just nice..

currently using the "stock" Browser. Disappointing because it doesn't have a "X" option when browsing. >.<

It is so annoying when you want to select "older post" in Facebook but selected "DOwnload" instead. Imagine all those errors that eats into normal 3G fees of 10cents/kb. sleep.gif

For 3g, its better to use Opera.. fast and uses low data cost due to the server side rendering and compression... but it lacks on pinchzooming and have a only once zoom which is quite painful to touch buttons such as on this forum to navigate next and previous post page.. but i still use it for 3g browsing.. on Wifi, i use stock browser

tried it.. but ii prefer stock and opera mini...

stock browser = wifi
opera mini = 3g

the stock browser consumes so many power and drains more battery comparing to opera mini, so i prefer opera mini when outside without power supply reach.. stock browser is when at home with wifi and i could use up all the battery.. haha
