Preferred browser?

I used to be a Dolphin fanatic, but I found that it slowed me down too much. I did a little exploring and I am dead set on Miren Browser. It incorporates the speed dial of opera with the tab style of dolphin. Haven't been able to figure out some features but I plan on working on it. The small but VERY significant feature that sold me on Miren was the option to long-press on a link to open it in a new tab in the background. When reading a forum or rss feed, I like to open all articles at once in separate tabs, so I can keep my spot on the original page while closing articles as I read them. With dolphin you can long press for the menu and select 'open in new tab', but Miren eliminates that step by allowing to to map that shortcut directly to 'long-press'. Other than that it is pretty lightweight and I can't remember a single problem it has caused. Worth checking out, in my opinion.
 
I installed skyfire, miren, dolphin hd, opera mobile, and xscope. I liked dolphin at first but then went back to the stock browser. I had a need to save webpages for offline use and started using opera pretty heavily. I hear the xscope is the fastest and best, but I cant get over the fact that is doesnt even have the tap to zoom with the text wrap feature or whatever its called. so as of right now....

Opera mobile
 
Dolphin. But I have Skyfire, Opera Mini, and Firefox installed. I find that no one browser can alleviate all my browsing needs.
