Google Chrome alternatives have been filling up the web browser choices on Android, but here are some of the best options in 2021.

Google Chrome on Android

Although Google Chrome is the built-in browser of Android, it does not mean that it is a perfect choice.

Similar to how Windows users don't just settle with its built-in web browser, Edge.

Just recently, Google Chrome figured in another security issue, which could potentially expose their private data.

As such, some security experts warn Chrome users on Android to uninstall the browser from the smartphone to avoid giving away their private information and other data.

Just before that, Google also warned about high-level security vulnerabilities on its browser, which required its users to update as soon as possible.

Google Chrome Alternative Browsers for Android

Now that some experts are suggesting Android users to ditch Google Chrome altogether. Here are some of the best alternatives that you might want to check out.

After all, a web browser is still essential for smartphones despite the plethora of apps available that do almost anything.

Opera

This browser has been touted to be an alternative for Google Chrome for PC users. And even in smartphones, Opera is still one of the top choices.

As per TomsGuide, Opera is known for two things: speed and data saving.

This mobile browser is popular for users who are trying to save some data as it tries to compress standard web pages, as well as videos.

That said, Opera tends to load heavy web pages, even those filled with video ads, much faster than other counterparts.

Not to mention that Opera comes with a built-in ad blocker and a free VPN-like function that hides your real IP address.

Although the performance of Opera is faster than most Android web browsers, Chrome still tramples its speed.

Firefox

Another household name for PC users is the popular Chrome alternative, Firefox.

Its mobile browser still provides the numerous features that Google Chrome users enjoy, including dark mode and massive extension support.

On top of that, Firefox additionally gives its users a tool that recommends articles for them to read. Instead of following the news from social media platforms.

Not to mention that its users could similarly sync their passwords, bookmarks, and history similar to Chrome by creating a Firefox account.

Vivaldi

Lastly is a privacy-focused browser called Vivaldi.

Aside from the encrypted syncing and private browsing functions of Vivaldi, this browser provides unique features that its users might find useful, according to How2Shout.

One of which is the Notes tab that students or those who are seriously researching about something that they are passionate about would absolutely need.

On top of that, there is also a Clone tab, allowing its users to create a duplicate of all of their currently opened tabs.
