Skyfire v Dolphin HD v Opera 5 v Stock

Skyfire pages take FOREVER to load on my DI. Stock is ok, I'm not an Opera fan so it's Dolphin HD for me. Good speed, like the UI, good browser.

+1. The Dolphin HD browser is amazing. Best mobile browser, IMO. Makes Safari look very 2007.

how is the data usage on dolphin hd vs opera? I know opera uses a lot less data because the pages are processed on their own severs before they send the page down to your phone. Anybody able to advise?

Can you set Opera as the default browser as when ever I'm prompted it offers, Stock, Dolphin etc but never Opera??

Make sure Opera isn't at the bottom of a scrolling list of choices.

Search for "Make It Default Browser" in the app store. It's for Opera.

Check out "Opera Bridge" in the market.

I like xScope for 1 major reason, it renders the pages I visit often in a manner that is very easy for me to read and navigate. I almost never have to zoom in or out to be able to read the pages I go to. I get tired of constantly zooming in with all the other browsers to be able to read the tiny text in forums such as this, xda, and some of the others I go to on my phone.

OEM browser. I've tried them all and it is the only one that works consistently well, at least for me.

I have a Galaxy Tab. I have not tried Opera on it but I do have Skyfire 3.2
as well as Dolphin HD.

I used to he a big Opera fan before version 5. Is that still the latest?
Any how...I disliked Opera 5 all the way around....it was just too "busy"
for me.

Skyfire is great but Dolphin does a much better job of showing me content
on the first try like it would appear on my PC. Skyfire tries but too often I have
to adjust something to get a webpage to look good on my nice 7 inch
screen. Dolphin just looks good on most sites without fiddling.

The stock browser is better than most but cannot hold a candle to
either Skyfire or Dolphin HD.

I like the Stock browser on my HTC Desire HD
I tried Dolphin HD, didn't like it and my friends have all got sky fire on their Androids which i didn't like the look off either. Just found my Stock browser faster and cleaner but its all down to preference
