I Switched to the Samsung Internet Browser...

(Affiliate Link)

I didn't think it was possible, but Samsung internet is once again a viable alternative on your phones to Chrome. I gave up using it years ago, but I've heard nothing but good things on Twitter, so I decided to give it another chance. I'm glad I did! I switched to Samsung internet, and here's why I think you should as well!

The big win over Chrome to me is the fact that Samsung lets us have an in browser add blocker!! Makes such a browsing difference!!

Samsung internet has BY FAR the best video player of any of the major browsers.

You missed a HUGE PLUS to the browser. If you long press the "Find" button on bottom bar, you can customize what's in your menus and even remove/add different things to the bottom bar. Can also get there by going to Layouts& menus in the settings...

My bar from right to left is... Tabs(Long press = new tab), Menu(LP = Settings), FW(LP = FW History), Back(LP = Back History), Bookmarks(LP = Add Page To), & Find(LP = Customize Menus).

Makes doing things in Samsung Internet SUPER QUICK!!

Samsung have been improving their apps recently, a lot of people also is saying Bixby improved a lot, Samsung is trying to distance themselves from Google and become like apple

The Samsung Internet extension is also available on Microsoft Edge's add-on store. What's great about it is that if I use several browsers, let's say Chome, Edge and Brave, I can have all my bookmarks synced between them as long as I have the add-on installed. It unifies all my saved pages in a single bookmark button, what a nice little add-on 😎

Nice to see it's getting the recognition it deserves!

For a second I was genuinely shocked by how at the end you laid your phone back on the table at seemingly the same position it was at the beginning, although it definitely wasn't the case, it was seamlessly close enough.

Been using Sam Internet for several years and it's very good - Chrome still gets a look in, but not often 🐦

Samsung internet have an advantage you can get darkmode on sites that don't have it.

The only reason I use Chrome is because it has really good synchronization with PC and I am exlusively on my PC while at home so that's a massive deal for me. Plus I use a lot of Google services already. But Samsung Browser ain't bad at all and you can get an ad blocker on it.

Never touched the app until today when i was trying to pay a bill and it wouldn't load the site in chrome but samsungs browser instantly loaded it. Chrome seems sluggish on my phone and I have the galaxy s24 so its not an old phone.

Its very fast from my experience with it, kind of like how swapping from chrome to opera on PC helped performance immensely. I dont need anything fancy out of my phone browser so the built in browser works perfect.

In 2018 when i was in high school i did use it a lot for the homeworks. Maybe ill start to use it again.

[acsilver]

yep i use samgsung internet. i really like the built in ad blockers and the dedicated videoplayer. its reallly nice.

[ccroy]

It's in the Play Store! I just installed it on my Pixel 😂👍Going to give it a try.

[alexable]

I read many comments complaining about the auto filler, if you start using samsung pass you won't have those kind of problems anymore

[brendanfogel]

Ive always been a google chrome user but i can tell you that samsung internet is 100% way smoother than chrome especially for samsung phones. I was actually surprised, just as smooth as safari on iphone. I just think they should give it a better interface

[Mermilkie]

Always use it!! Highly reccomend switching

I like using whatever app are meant for the phone by the company. Samsung devices get app designed for samsung phones, my pixel gets all the google apps ect...

I recently bought S24 Ultra, first I ignored the Samsung Internet because of prejudice but then I decided to try it. I tried many Android browsers but this turned to be one of the best. Its button layout is convenient (much more convenient than Chrome), and the browser has all the needed features. Even in small things, in Chrome when you open a link in the new tab you still have to do one more tap to switch to it, Samsung internet does this by default (but you can still decide whether you want to switch by default)
Now I am using it as my default phone browser

You can add chrome extensions on the chrome app? Since when?
