5 apps to quickly browse the Internet for Android
Table of contents:
Web browsers belong to that type of application that we must download to our phone no matter what. They are essential to access the different web pages that populate the Internet network. But not all of them work equally well, they don't even have the same features. And since speed is a plus, we are going to recommend 5 applications for fast Internet browsing for Android.
We are going to try, of course, that all the Android browsers that we recommend here are free.So anyone can enjoy them on their phone at no additional cost. We begin with the special ‘5 applications to quickly browse the Internet for Android‘.
Firefox Quantum
Now, the new version of Firefox is called Firefox Quantum, an update of the famous Mozilla browser. This update promises much faster and smoother browsing than any other browser. Of course, the application is completely free and you can install it through this link on Google Play.
Firefox Quantum's interface is very clean and minimalist. At the top, on the right, you have an icon with a number. This number reflects the number of tabs you have open. To your right, the browser settings menu. Here you can open a tab privately, access bookmarks (which you can synchronize with your PC's browser thanks to Firefox Sync), add special add-ons such as blocking … Also, different accessibility settings, clean private data, choose default browser, etc.Too bad we can't activate any dark mode to read the browser at night.
Opera Mini
A very light browser is Opera Mini, which is also completely free and whose developers promise that you will save a valuable amount of data. What does this Opera Mini offer?
As soon as we open the application, we see a series of suggested bookmarks. Right at the bottom, we can see a newsreader that Opera selects for us and whose categories we can reorder. At the bottom of the browser we have the toolbar: back button, refresh button, start button, number of open tabs and a small pop-up menu where we can consult:
- Saving data: We can also configure the level of savings and the quality of the web images to download.
- Blocking: The browser itself continues to appear even if we have it activated.
- Saved Pages to view later offline: you can save the desired page in the three-dot menu on each page.
- Download settings: location, show download list, number of simultaneous downloads, etc.
In addition, in this pop-up menu, we find the settings icon, with which we can do:
- Choose the color theme for the application
- Open new tabs in foreground or background
- Night mode: Dims the brightness and also applies a warm filter to reduce the typical blue light of mobile phones.
Download Ópera Mini now and enjoy a complete and fast browser.
UC Browser Mini
UC Browser is a really tiny web browser weighing just over 1MB. Such a lightweight browser should be very easy to use, and it is. Also, it is completely free and you can download it from the Play Store app store. According to the application, web content is downloaded using this browser 32% faster than using similar ones. As it happened with Opera Mini, the home screen is a news feed as well as a 'Top Sites' in which you will see the most common sites that you access from the browser.
One of the great novelties of UC Browser Mini is that, in addition to the browser, you can access your media library in addition to:
- Incognito screen to navigate without leaving a trace
- Night mode configurable intensity
- Fast mode to make pages download faster
- And, of course, bookmarks, browsing history, downloads, data consumption and even a QR code reader. Of course, in 'Settings', we can modify the font size, the quality of web images, among other settings.
Browser Via
A browser so light that it weighs less than 400 KB. And that is not reflected in its potential: it is tremendously configurable and customizable Its home screen is very basic and at the bottom we can see the typical back buttons , home, tabs and browser settings. Within the configurator we can see the bookmarks, history, downloads, a practical night mode and more in-depth settings.
In these settings, we can customize the browser to our liking, embedding an image as a background, for example, to block so that do not disturb us while we navigate. The browser is free and you can download it in the Google Play Store.
CM Browser
CM Browser's home screen is very similar to the rest of the browsers included here: A first part with direct access to frequently used pages and a lower settings bar. As a novelty, CM Browser suggests searches that are trending globally, so you don't miss out on anything new. As a novelty, you can delete history every time you exit it, automatically. You also have a dark mode, its own ad blocker, the possibility of adapting the pages to the full screen of the mobile (eliminates both the bottom and top bars)... A very complete browser that you can download for free from the Android application store.
