Best Android Browsers




Web Browsers are one of the most significant pieces of software on your device that serves as a window to access the World Wide Web. Mostly, a browser app is always pre-installed on every Android device. However, not all the browsers can provide you with a smooth and reliable browsing experience.

There are a lot of third-party web browsers available in the Play Store which can give a fast browsing experience and will consume as little data as possible. We have hand-picked ten best Android browsers which come with all the necessary features and top-notch performance.

Let’s take a look at the best Android browsers of 2018 

Google Chrome


Google Chrome has a cornucopia of features, including searching from the address bar, browsing the web in private Incognito mode, and automatically filling web forms with your data. Chrome’s default homepage is also surprisingly useful, serving up news articles it thinks you’ll like, as well as giving you links to your favorite sites. You can also save any webpage for offline viewing — useful if you want to read something later. Google’s Safe Browsing also warns you of dangerous links and built-in Google Translate means that no page is safe from your rampant reading.
Unsurprisingly, Chrome really shines if you have a Google account. Once you sign in it syncs your bookmarks, tabs, and history across devices, remembers your usernames and passwords, and autocompletes your web searches. But you don’t need a Google account to take advantage of Chrome’s tabbed browsing, which lets you switch between web pages with a few taps. Ditto for Data Saver, which compresses images, fonts, and other web objects to speed up browsing and reduce your data usage by 60 percent, according to Google’s stats.

 
Brave Browser


Brave Browser is one of the newer Android browsers. It came out in 2016 and has a variety of features. There is an ad blocker built-in. Additionally, it can block third party cookies, block scripts, and it has HTTPS everywhere. Included is per-site settings just in case you need that. It also boasts optimizations for speed and battery life improvements. It also has most of the basic features like bookmarks, history, and a privacy (incognito) mode.

This application has an impressive set of features that includes syncing, HTML5 video player, Adblocker, tabbed browsing, gesture browsing, flash player support, incognito mode, etc.
Dolphin browser also contains add-ons, and features dolphin sonar where users can use their voice to search, share and navigate. Dolphin browser is undoubtedly one the best Android browsers providing reliable browsing experience to its users.

You can send video and web content from your phone to any TV which is equipped with supported streaming capabilities. It is a secure Android browser which is available for free in the Play Store.

Flynx




Flynx by InfiKen Labs has come a long way since its inception. This unique browser works in a floating window as opposed to a full screen mode. This allows for quick web browsing. It also doesn't force you to leave the app you're currently using. When you click links, they open a little bubble on the side of the screen and the page will load in the background until you decide to click the bubble to read it yourself. It also comes with a few other features, such as night mode. It’s something different in the Android browsers space.

Firefox Focus


Mozilla’s Firefox browser is good for general-purpose browsing, but if you are looking for something more security-conscious, there is Firefox Focus. The app features a stripped-down, streamlined interface that hides ads, shows you how many tracking programs are being actively blocked on any given page, and periodically reminds you to erase your browsing history. Firefox Focus allows users to slip through the internet like ghosts, safe in the knowledge that they are easily able to avoid ad-tracking and other such nuisances. Even better, it’s great for phones with limited space, as the download only takes up 4MB of space on your phone.

Microsoft Edge









Whoa, slow down there — don’t skip this one over just because you saw “Microsoft” in the title. Yes, it has a bad lineage, but don’t let that put you off Microsoft Edge’s very real uses. First off, if you use Microsoft Edge on any other device, then you can use this browser to continue where you left off on your phone, and you will find all your passwords, favorite sites, and reading list here too. Hub View makes finding new and favorite content easy, a text-reading mode makes reading easier, and there is even a QR code reader and voice search option. Sure, it lacks the bells and whistles of some of the other browsers, but if you use Edge on another device, this is useful to have installed.

UC Browser

UC Browser is a feature-rich mobile browser which is available on some platforms including Android, Blackberry OS, iOS, Symbian, Windows phone and Microsoft Windows. Similar to the Opera mini browser it uses cloud acceleration and data compression technology.

What Is Analogue Electronics ?

The world of electronics is all about electrical circuits, electronic components, and interconnected technologies. All these elements can be primarily  categorized  as digital, analog, or a combination of both. However, here we will be focusing on the basics of the analog category in detail.  Analog electronics  are  electronic  systems with a continuously variable signal, in contrast to digital  electronics  where signals usually take only two levels. Analog electronics  is a branch of electronics that deals with a continuously variable signal. It’s widely used in radio and audio equipment along with other applications where signals are derived from analog sensors before being converted into digital signals for subsequent storage and processing.  What is Analog ? Analog means continuous and real. The world we live in is analog in nature, implying that it’s full of infinite possibilities. The number of smells we can sense, the number of tones we can hear, o

E. C. George Sudarshan In A Tryst With Physics

E.C.G. Sudarshan T he physicist Hans Bethe once said, “There are two types of genius. Ordinary geniuses do great things, but they leave you room to believe that you could do the same if only you worked hard enough. Then there are magicians, and you can have no idea how they do it.” In the world of science, every so often we come across visionaries, ‘magicians’ in the words of Bethe, who dare to perceive the world in ways no one else has before. E.C. George Sudarshan is one of them.  Born in Kottayam in 1931,   Ennackal Chandy George Sudarsan   studied at the CMS College and later at the Madras Christian College, the University of Madras and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. ECG (Ennackal Chandy George) Sudarsan had been nominated nine times for Nobel Prize in physics. Sudarsan rewrote Albert Einstein's theory through the discovery of Tachyon particles in quantum optics. Famous scientist Vaidyanath Misra was also with Sudarsan in his efforts that led t

What Is An Amplifier?

An amplifier is an electronic device that increases the voltage, current, or power of a signal. Amplifiers are used in wireless communications and broadcasting, and in audio equipment of all kinds.  Or Amplifier is device which increase the strength of signal. An amplifier, electronic amplifier or (informally) amp is an electronic device that can increase the power of a signal. An amplifier functions by taking power from a power supply and controlling the output to match the input signal shape but with a larger amplitude. In this sense, an amplifier modulates the output of the power supply based upon the properties of the input signal. An amplifier is effectively the opposite of an attenuator: while an amplifier provides gain, an attenuator provides loss. Amplifier is made up of transistors. before invention of the transistor vacuum tubes were used in amplifier. Classification of Amplifiers 1-Type of Signal a. Small Signal i. voltage amplifier b.
