Default Question about Chrome

I have been using Chrome browser for a minute. Like it well enough. Question, if for example, I download a pdf file from the browser to the phone, maybe a softball schedule for example. Is there a way to get to the downloads directly from the browser like there is in every other Android browser available? It's kind of a pain to ha e to go to astro or whatever file manager in order to see the downloads. Am I missing something? Or is it just the browser? Thanks.

If you have time, what browser are you using and why? Thanks

I use Dolphin, because it's the "browser for smartphones", not like FF or Chrome that are IMO marketing material.

Dolphin Browser is faster, offers more features and better UX, read it yourself: http://www.androidauthority.com/dolphin-browser-dolphin-engine-in-beta-available-to-download-96251/

Isn't there a pre-loaded app labeled "Downloads"?

Actually there is...never thought about that. Still isnt as easy as the pre loaded button in every other browser that exists, but hey, one click isnt too bad...thanks for the heads up.

Chrome IMO is the best because of the ease of syncing/accessing bookmarks across all your devices (desktop/tablet/phone) and also being able to see what tabs you were on last on each device so you can easily pick up from where you left off. Plus not to mention the Chrome to Phone plug-in that allows you to push pages from your desktop to your other devices. You picked a good browser def stick with chrome. To get all this all you do is sign into chrome across all your devices.
