One of the most important pieces of software you will use on your computer is going to be the web browser. There are really three main browser brand names, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer/Edge, and Google Chrome/Chromium. There’s also dozens of smaller third party browsers around to try out. Although Firefox and Chromium are both open source, the majority of third party browsers are based around Chromium and the Blink engine. That Chrome is based around. The two are very similar but Chrome is more like the public version as Chromium is never officially released as a standalone browser. Chrome has extras like a,, auto updater and multimedia codecs. Each third party browser developer has its own ideas and either takes things out of Chromium or adds new functions and features in. There are several functions built into Chromium and Chrome already but today’s internet user often needs more, which has to be taken care of with extensions. A number of third party Chromium based browsers are really pretty similar to standard and offer a few security or privacy tweaks such as removing communication with Google servers. We’re more interested in looking at a browser that enhances the features and functions over and above the standard Chromium, such as,, better tab/download/ or even something unique like a built in VPN or DNS encryption. Here we list seven browsers based on Chromium and the Blink engine that have a bigger feature set and more options than the browser they are developed around. Importantly, the browsers can still directly or indirectly install extensions from the Chrome store, any that can’t were not included. Download Opera Mini 7 Next Handler UI for Android [APK] and Java. Here are the download links of the Opera Mini 7.0 Handler UIs. Opera Mini Next (OM7.0) JAR. Vivaldi Vivaldi is the newest big player in the browser market with the stable version released in April 2016. It was created by a former founder and CEO of the original Opera. Unhappy with the direction Opera took after moving from its own Presto engine to Chromium’s Blink, they decided to create a new browser that reintroduces many of the features and functions removed from Opera. As a result, Vivaldi is currently popular among advanced users and geeks. Perhaps the most striking difference Vivaldi has over other browsers is the color changing theme which alters the UI color to match the general color of the current web page. A very useful space saving feature is the tab stacking which allows you to drop one tab on top of another to group them together. What Vivaldi has in abundance is tons of options to tweak things like appearance, tabs and the address bar to your preference. As it’s still pretty new, Vivaldi should improve further and pick up more options and features as time goes on. I just cant believe that chromium tab management is not an issue for You. That problem is known for years. When asked about limited number of tabs you can open and have a meaningful view of them, Google geniuses replied to users to buy bigger monitors. They are unable/uninterested to add scroll bar/arrows so tabs can fill more than screen width. VIVALDI is THE ONLY Chromium based browser on planet Earth that solved the issue by offering vertical tab position (which is logical solution for wide screen monitors). When filled it offers scroll bar. You can achieve this in new Firefox via hack. Tab management is essential requirement for me and browsers without it, in my opinion, don’t have any usable value. Thanks a lot I was struggling with firefox.And because i wanted to sync my android chrome browser with my pc browser i had to seek an alternate chromium based browser.And after reading this post and all comments,I decided to give SLIMJET and CENT a try and just wow I like both. SLIMJET is my default browser now.it syncs my pc tabs to my android so well and it also installs chrome extensions with ease.And the best part.It starts instantly right after clicking on my slow 2GB ram pc and works fine even with 15-20 tabs open at which point firefox and chrome freeze for me. I suggest you make a new list with 2018 updates to above browsers and anything new if you find. Hii,Thanks for reply.I was thinking.that i like the Multifunctionality of Vivaldi browser and extra but useful features of UC browser.(Like cricket score and virtual wifi) But the problem is.these two are just so resource heavy that my old PC cannot handle them.Do you know is there any way to make them work on a slow pc (may be a lite version of these) or any tweaks? I aslo gave Comodo Dragon a try but there is no new tab page. By the way ay present Cent and Slimjet are working pretty good for me. I also heard of Iridium browser (its paid) is it any good? Raymond, any suggestion for lightweight Chromium based browser that is able to use extensions? Currently, I’m using Yandex browser. It’s working fine, but i dislike the UNREMOVABLE/Unable to uninstall extensions that come bundled into the browser and i barely use it.
