Default What's your favorite browser on Android?
I prefer Opera Mobile. The performance is so much nicer than the stock browser. Just scrolling/pinch to zoom on webpages...performance is easily better on Opera Mobile.

The new Dolphin browser is very close but it still needs some slight work for me to consider it over Opera.

Opera Mobile gets my vote. It's super fast and its my default browser. I also love the Opera Link feature.

Stock. It handles links correctly

Dolphin HD, here. Although I'm going to give the new, stock browser a go, when I get my Galaxy Nexus.

I miss the HTC Browser. Their text selection method is the best.

That being said, Opera Mobile and Dolphin HD are pretty good in their own right.

Its been Boat Browser for me lately.
Magnifying window when selecting text, full screen mode, colored themes, screenshot feature, nice UI for tab browsing, website speed dial.
It looks like a lot like the Safari browser.

Been using stock ever since jumping to android. No need to change browsers to get optimal speed not like my 8900. On my 8900 I used opera to bear with the slow web browsing capability but even that was a horrid experience once you experience android.

Opera Mobile for me. Head and shoulders above the Atrix stock browser imo.

+1 for Dolphin HD. I tried Opera Mobile about a year ago. I may give it another go.
