Hi, not sure if I am really starting a NEW thread, but wanted to find out what the best browser for Note 2 was. The criteria I am looking for are two things: ability to accommodate handed operation (incl. starting a new page, broesing through open pages, opening home page) and text wrapping. Not simply adjusting the text to the width of the screen, but wrapping it to the closest zoom level, just like Opera does it. Suggestions are welcome.

Best browser for Note 2

+1 and since I use it on all my devices I keep all my bookmarks and settings. For flash I use puffin which isn't great but I don't know any other browsers with flash built in. Been meaning to try chrome though.

+1 - I use dolphin HD on my atrix right now, and I love it, and I am sure it is even better on the note 2. Only reason I don't use chrome is because I can't use it on my phone. My only gripe with dolphin is I don't have a find on page feature on my phone, is that available in the newer versions for jellybean?

There are no issues with performance of the stock browser. It can be good on smaller devices, but with Note 2 you need to reach to the top of the screen for operations like navigating through open pages, bookmarks and starting a new page.

Was enjoying dolphin until I noticed the stupid amount of battery it was using, 2x the amount that the screen was using. Now using boat browser and am really happy with it, it can freeze occasionally but is so much nicer than stock as it always resizes properly.

My browsing needs are so extensive that I need a different browser. I'm good with stock.
Same reason I stopped using it on a different phone.
