Chrome came out on top, with Edge a close second and Opera nearly three points behind the leader. Firefox, meanwhile, was way behind team Chromium. The scores, however, are dramatically different.
WebXPRT scores were commonly three hundred or more. WebXPRT uses a wide number of web apps, from photo collections to online note-taking to data sets to score performance. This test is kind of like a PCMark for browsers, and to our mind, one of the most significant tests.
Firefox came out on top here by a solid margin, with Edge coming in second followed closely by Chrome and Opera—the latter two tied for third. Finally, we come to the memory and CPU tests. Slamming an average PC with 20 tabs of mostly media-rich sites all at once is going to chew up a good chunk of CPU and memory.
Most of these browsers did not disappoint in that respect. Edge was the best performer in CPU usage by a good margin. Opera came in second, followed hot on its heels by Chrome. This test is where each browser distinguished itself with finally at least three different outcomes.
Interestingly Opera was only marginally better than Firefox. Again, mostly different outcomes for each browser. The Chromium underpinnings matter less here. Chromium Edge wins our top spot for a good showing in the stress test, as well as Octane 2. Chrome is a close second since its showing was consistently good and not far off of Edge. As the only non-Chromium mainstream browser it simply has to do better—especially in CPU and memory management. Why about Dissenter browser?
I was surprised to see Brave listed as 1 — it feels like a fairly well-known browser. On that note, if Brave makes the list, why not Vivaldi? Vivaldi should be on the list as it is, by far, the best web browser currently in existence. Dillo Pros Fast Small footprints Friendly to both users and developers. Cons Looks outdated.

Download Vivaldi and you've got a quick, versatile web browser with some excellent built-in features. While it doesn't technically do anything that you can't do with Chrome or Edge and a bunch of extensions, Vivaldi bakes a wide range of features into a single browser, and is all the better for it.
Among the boons in Vivaldi are the options to post to Instagram from a desktop computer or laptop, the ability to auto-fill cookie pop-ups so they never appear , and the ability to take full-page screenshots of web pages with a single button press.
This is just scratching the surface of everything that Vivaldi offers, and it comes with a huge number of customization options. It's quick, too, and it doesn't have sinister data collection practices either. The only real downside is that it can be tougher to use if you're not technically-minded, and you won't use a decent suite of the features it offers.
Safari is the default browser that comes preinstalled on Apple devices, including both MacOS laptops and home computers, along with its smartphones in the iPhone range. Opera feels similar to Google Chrome because it uses the same base program. But Opera is unique because it features a sidebar where you can pin links to your favorite websites, sort of like a bookmark, or shortcuts to email and chat windows. You can adjust the settings to hide the sidebar and use more traditional menus and toolbars like other internet browser programs.
Opera is decently fast, about on par with Firefox and Chrome when it comes to initial startup, site navigation and page loading. The URL bar doubles as a search bar, and it has stacking, which means you can drag and drop open tabs in the order you want them. Maxthon has some unique features, most notably its drag-and-drop content feature.
This allows you to grab any image or content on any website and drop into a personal message or email message to share or send, eliminating completely the need to clip, copy or save content.
Maxthon also includes parental controls to block specific content based on security levels and site ratings. However, you can adjust the settings to stop the autofill of personal information. It includes typical browser tools like tabbed browsing, session restore and a password manager. Its pop-up blocker is automatically enabled from the moment it is installed, which is becoming more typical of all internet browsers, and it has a privacy browser to keep your browser history from being tracked while online.
Avast is quick at starting up and navigating between pages. And compared to more popular browsers, Avast loaded more quickly. There is an early access Mac version, but as this isn't yet fully-fledged we wouldn't recommend using it yet. Avant can be used as either a standalone browser or as an add-on to Internet Explorer, giving IE users updated tools and functions no longer supported by Microsoft. This internet browser has session restore automatically enabled, which means your tabs and activities are saved each time you close the browser and will be there the next time it is opened.
It also automatically updates itself. In our tests, Avant Browser did a decent job protecting against phishing schemes and malicious downloads. It comes in useful if you still need to use Internet Explorer to access certain secure apps that won't allow another web browser.
SeaMonkey is an open source browser, so you have access to the code and can customize its features. In these cases the SeaMonkey community works together to provide patches or new versions to fix these issues.
The current version of SeaMonkey includes a password manager, customizable tools and session restore.
