Glad to hear Tis. I keep waiting for it to prove me wrong since I have installed other browsers, thought they were the best, and then find them to be only as fast as the rest.

I have experienced only one minor problem. I have a bookmark widget. Whenever I select one of those bookmarks, Puffin reopens the last website I was looking at. When it does that, I just back out and retry the page I wanted.

Interesting tidbit: I went to www.speedtest.net via Puffin on my Maxx.

Got this for the best result:

I tried Puffin too. I'm very disappointed with it. It's fast, no doubt about that. But the part I hated is when I was on the Yahoo homepage (desktop not mobile) I tried to type something in the search bar but the browser kept on shifting the web page up so I couldn't see what I was typing in the bar. I type and search in landscape not portrait. It was so fast and I wanted to like it but that is a huge problem. I'll stick with my ICS+ browser for now.

Has anyone else had keyboard issues with Chrome? Anytime i type on an input field, like a search bar, i can not get the soft keyboard to pop up. The only way i can type anything with Chrome is to use the physical keyboard.

I use to love Dolphin but recent updates have left it very hard to work with. I personally loved the tab browsing and the shortcut keys.

Chrome I really like the tap to zoom. The tap to zoom works the best on chrome, does a great job of making any and all text on a page readable, but pages load slow and I don't really like the UI.

Puffin is easily the fastest browser but it is very buggy.

ICS+ is great but it seems to be a huge battery hog?

Dolphin Beta is a nice all around Browser. It isn't the best in any category, but it also isn't the worst in any category. So it makes for a decent everyday browser.
