4.1.1 Stock Browser - Good enough???

[muddasick]

Hello all,

I've noticed that the JB upgrade has new stock browser. It appears to work well. I've used Chrome prior but is there really a need now with the new stock browser??

If you aren't using the stock browser which one do you use?

I still use chrome. Syncs open tabs on my home and work pc

Is flash compatibility affected? It seems like it would be rather messed up to suddenly remove a feature through an update that was already preinstalled from the factory and was already working fine on 4.0.

I use Xscope as I find it has the best default view for forums

just trying chrome and seems good
plus the auto space issue after JB update is better

yep - chrome rocks - they have done a very good job with it imo

If you use chrome on desktop, it makes sense on android more. I always have flash installed and the stock browser if needs be, but haven't needed to yet

Once you go Chrome, you won't go back.

I did. At least on the desktop. Until Chrome can allow me to control tabs the way I like - it is a non-starter. It is Firefox+TabMixPlus for me.

And I've been meaning to try Chrome on my phone but honestly Firefox works well enough there too.
