Docwagon 856 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I am really tired of the stock web browser on my Stratosphere. Its a memory hog and I constantly have to restart my phone to get it to work. It will run fine and load quickly after a restart, but after several hours it gets sluggish until I finally have to restart the phone again. Any recommendations? I'm thinking of trying Opera mini.

JsinOwl 644 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Opera Mini is the fastest and uses the least amount of data (it compresses web content before sending it to your phone). The downside is that it doesn't always display pages properly and it doesn't do flash. I uses Opera Mini for 80% of my browsing and when I encounter an issue I switch to Boat Browser. I'm sure Dolphin and others would work just as well, but Boat Browser has an Evernote plug-in that will run on my Android Gingerbread device, no other browser does. It also plays flash like a champ.

Commander_Undies 618 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I use Chrome, but it's awful slow when I need the internet the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diddums 4,305 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I'll hafta look at that then. I've been using Chrome for ages but my phone has slowed down terribly since the last update (which was a week before the Galaxy S4 was released coincidentally) so it might be time for something new.

Docwagon 856 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 After tinkering with it a bit more, I really like Opera Mini. The only thing I don't like is it won't display some of the picture types, and Cracked often uses one of those types. I'll see the main images, but the little pictures with captions that they put between paragraphs as a joke usually just says "image" in a box.
