Before you choose
Check your devices
Start with the platforms you use. The list identifies support for Windows, macOS, Android, Linux, iOS and browser extensions.
If you switch between a laptop and a phone, confirm that the browser supports both systems before you choose it.
Compare free and paid access
Review the pricing model and the Paid from field. A free plan can cover basic browsing, while a free trial can let you evaluate paid access before subscribing.
Review privacy controls
Compare built-in ad blocking and tracking protection when reducing unwanted page elements or limiting tracking matters to you.
These are separate fields, so check both rather than treating one as a substitute for the other.
Look at engine and extensions
The browser engine affects how sites and web apps render. Extension support can add tools for work, security or media, so compare both fields with the sites and add-ons you use.
Plan for multiple screens
Cross-device sync can matter when you move between browsers on a computer, phone or tablet. Check the sync field and the supported-platform list together.
Check the code model
The list identifies open-source status. If you need to read or change the code, review the browser's licence and project terms before choosing it.
