Ok I have a note 2014 and only you guys can answer my question
After updating to 4.4 is the browser still web kit based or chrome? Does drag and drop Now support chrome? or dolphin Jetpack? Can you get Hash running in 4.4 with a stable browser that supports drag and drop.

I like Dolphin HD. I can have it set to a desktop user agent, it can be set to not load flash elements automatically. You have to tap to load which I find nice. Tried Firefox but it felt a bit bloated. Opera Mini is nice when you aren't on wifi or 4G because it compresses pages for faster loading.
If you prefer the stock browser, give the app named "download all files". Just search the market.
File downloads in stock browser.
There is also an option under the setting of " astro file manager " to enable browser downloads in the stock browser.
I agree, I am loving Dolphin HD on the Bionic... I also use Lastpass & Xmarks to sync it with everything else I use.
On my Tab, I am still happy with the stock browser tho, sometimes I switch back to Dophin but waiting for the 'Pad' version to get the Lastpass & Xmarks plugins

Dolphin HD here.
I'm liking Dolphin, set to work as a desktop
I, too, use Opera Mini.
Either Dolphin HD or Firefox Beta, your call.

Dolphin for desktop browsing, Miren for something else

+1 for Dolphin too. I also use it on the iPad and it syncs favorites between them which is kind of handy.
Opera Mobile. Because the stock browser is junk.
I use Opera Mobile and Dolphin Browser HD.

Im loving Dolphin HD more now that it has an evernote extension!
I tried them all, by far the best and easiest to use has been the Boat browser. Once you go Boat, you never go back.
I use dolphin personally due to its stylish user interface and gesture support.

Can someone explain the benefits of using a browser other than stock? I surf the web a lot (2.5gig a month) on my phone and have always used the stick browser...?
i prefer opera mobile, but i might have to switch back to dolphin since they have an evernote add-on now.
I downloaded Opera Mobile from android market.
At least is not transfering so much data.
Quick and fast!
It's all good
Really a matter of preference.
However some might do specific tasks better than others. For example the other day I tried Dolphin, Opera, Firefox and the native browser during a flash stream of a basketball game. I was hooked up to my home wireless router.
I never did get the flash addon to work properly on Firefox. Opera and Dolphin opened the stream just fine, but the video was jerky and hard to watch.
By far the best video continuity was with the native browser.
But I still prefer Firefox for general web browsing.

for me the chrome off course !! with the sommthness its great experience

I have now tried Chrome, Firefox, Dophin, Opera and stock browser. They're all quite nice (except stock), and speed-wise it's no big difference. So try them all and choose the one you like best.
I like chrome because of it's smoothness and ease of tab switching. UI is better in chrome than dolphin in my opinion.
Dolphin with Jetpack plugin
Nothing works better than dolphin with dolphin jet pack

The stock android browser is by far the best on my.smothest and fastest. i discussed it with some phone riviewers, and they didnt anderstand why the nexus 4 comes with chrome as stock browser when the stock android browser is just faster overall.. offcorse this is what i have found out. you may have other opinions
Try boat browser.

I'm using Naked Browser. Simplistic philosophy, and so intuitive, like swipe from edge or quick tap on open tab to close it, not to mention that this is lightest browser for CPU-GPU
Thank u all,
Dolphin is FLASH GORDON! with jetpack
See this xda discussion about how browsers like Dolphin, Boat, Ninesky, and others spy on you, violating your privacy and wasting your battery power, bandwidth, and CPU. The thread is very long and at one point Dolphin removed the tracking but it now tracks again.
I made Naked Browser in response to all of this crap. No spying or monitoring of any kind, fast, and full-featured. This is a not for profit app that's free in the Google Play Store. The xda discussion about it is here.
I'm tired of chrome on the nexus 4 anyone else feel the same. I can't stand the lag when scrolling
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
If you have lag when scrolling it isn't chrome, it's something else. I don't get a single bit of lag on this phone in any app.
Man its annoying, I'm trying out dolphin browser , very smooth, if it isn't chrome then what could it be, I ha e plenty of free memory ram and SD.

I love Chrome on my N4, never had lag or any issues
After the chrome update last week it has been great here. Much improved from the previous version..

Hi
How do you cast a web page from an android phone? I installed chrome beta but there is no cast button. How do you do it please?
It is not supported on mobile phones yet..
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
You can only send videos of supported types from a site you're on. You can't cast a tab's contents from mobile Chrome yet.
You have to enable it on your phone. Chrome beta supports it already but it's kinda buggy and not all videos are supported.
