Which browser is the fastest? When Google company introduced Chrome, there was a special emphasis on the performance of the new browser.
Google regularly performed performance tests that demonstrated the superior performance of Google Chrome over other popular browsers, in particular Firefox or Internet Explorer.
Today, Chrome is the market leader. Microsoft is trying to change that with its new Microsoft Edge browser. Opera after the transition to Chrome engine I actually had to recreate my browser from scratch, and Mozilla is constantly improving its Firefox project.
What about Google? The company appears to be losing browser market share. This does not mean that the browser is not working in the best possible way for users, but is only a consequence of the company’s conservative position regarding the development of the project.
Speed is not the only important factor for a browser. Support for modern web standards is of great importance, built-in useful features for everyday tasks, security and privacy features, subjectively rated performance and support for various extensions.
We will focus solely on the performance factor, but each user should choose their own browser selection priorities.
Browsers
Performance tests were performed on two different operating systems Windows systems 10 - one of them is the latest stable build, and the second one is the latest build preliminary Windows testing Insider.
Computer 1 (Windows 10 stable version)
- Google Chrome Dev (version 53.0.2767)
- Microsoft Edge Stable (version 25.10586)
- Mozilla Firefox Nightly (version 50.0a1)
- Opera Developer (version 40.0.2267.0)
- Vivaldi (1.3.501.6)
Computer 2 (Windows 10 Insider Preview)
- Google Chrome Stable (version 51.0.2704.103)
- Mozilla Firefox (version 47.0)
- Microsoft Edge (version 38.14371)
- Opera (version 38)
- Vivaldi (version 1.2)
Benchmarks
The test used the following benchmarks to check the performance of all browsers tested:
Each benchmark was run twice without background activity.
results
The results are amazing. Chrome's performance on the 1st computer was not very good in 2 of 3 benchmarks, especially when compared with Opera and Vivaldi, which use an identical engine. The problem may be caused by a specific build of Chrome.
Microsoft Edge performed well in JetStream and Octane, but performed much worse in Speedometer. It's a little surprising that there are significant differences between browsers that use the same engine.
Chrome has demonstrated more low productivity than Opera and Vivaldi in JetStream and Octane, but outperformed those browsers in Speedometer.
On the other hand, Vivaldi was better than Opera in Speedometer.
On the 2nd computer a similar picture is observed. Microsoft Edge was the fastest in two benchmarks, but came in last place in the Speedometer.
Chrome Stable showed approximately equal performance to Opera and Vivaldi in the first two benchmarks, but Opera's Speedometer result was significantly different from Chrome and Vivaldi.
Windows 7 is still the most popular operating system, which is used by tens of millions of users. We will try to determine which browser is best for them. Perhaps they chose the wrong one?
In the new version of Ya.Browser, the developers decided to implement an unusual interface background - it will become animated. Unlike other browsers, the thumbnails here are represented by recognizable site logos, rather than screenshots of pages. This makes it much easier to understand. Other advantages include a minimalist interface. The program's panels take up at least 20% less space than can be seen in Firefox. What else can please you is the synchronization of open tabs with other devices.
You will also probably be pleasantly surprised by the answers that appear as you type in the address bar. For example, when asking: “What’s the weather like in Arkhangelsk...”, you will already see that it’s raining in Arkhangelsk right now, and the air temperature is +19.
Another plus is integration with Yandex.Disk, mail and other company services.
Simple and fast. Actually, that's all you need to know about the most popular browser in the world. And this is precisely why millions of users chose him. Tabs open at lightning speed extra elements not available in the interface
It is perfect for a weak computer because it requires little RAM. Moreover, the program identifies each open tab as a separate process.
Deserves special attention place Chrome in the Google ecosystem. If you use Android, GMail, Hangouts, Google Drive, YouTube - then this is your browser.
Firefox impresses with its personalization capabilities. How much will it be beautiful browser, and what he should be able to do is up to you to decide. Thousands of plugins to help! The second reason to download Firefox to your computer is the security system that the program developers have paid Special attention. Built-in anti-virus and anti-phishing monitors, instant ID verification, tracking protection - all this has already been implemented and is ready to serve you.
And if you are a gamer, then you should probably look at Fire Fox. The fact is that in online games this browser demonstrates more high speed responses than analogues. It also has fewer crashes.
Opera is considered an advanced browser “for those who understand.” It has a number of built-in options that will be of interest to web developers and designers. In addition, it is convenient to watch videos online - if you have unstable internet and from time to time the speed “drops”, you are unlikely to notice it. The situation is the same with loading pages - they shrink and open faster if the Internet connection fails. User protection here is also at the proper level - Opera will not allow unscrupulous sites to steal your passwords and other personal data or install a virus on you.
The first thing that catches your eye is the two interface options: classic and stylized. The latter offers not square miniatures, but round and different sizes. He looks very unusual. In addition, UC Browser makes it convenient to work with bookmarks - they are arranged in several rows.
That is, you don’t have to scroll and search for the right tab for a long time, as, for example, in Chrome. It's a small thing, but nice.
No less pleasant is that after installing this browser, you will receive bookmarks from the browser you previously used. That is, they will not have to be transferred. A built-in download manager that works even when the browser is closed is another delight of using the UC browser.
The good old “donkey” in the latest version has significantly increased the level of stability and security. According to these parameters, it is practically not inferior to its competitors. In addition, the developers have reached new level rendering - in terms of time spent processing animation, web applications and other multimedia on the Internet, they set a new record.
We compared the 9 most popular browsers for Windows to help you choose the best one. The interface, performance, security, the presence of advertising in the program, presets and “chips” were evaluated.

Known to all Windows users standard browser- Internet Explorer. It does not need to be downloaded when installing the OS, but it is recommended to update to the latest version - 11.0. In Windows 10, it was replaced by Microsoft Edge, written from scratch. Partly because of its bad reputation: netizens joke that it was invented to download other browsers.
IE loses significantly modern browsers in functionality, interface, pages load slowly, many web development standards are not supported, which is why sites may not be displayed correctly. IN latest versions these shortcomings have been improved. 
However, if you add up all versions of IE from the top 10 Russian Internet browsers, it is used by 10.5% of network users. Explorer can be compared to an old “calls only” telephone. The main function (website browsing) works, nothing extra.

The browser runs on the new EdgeHTML engine with the Chakra javascript interpreter.
Ability to take notes and drawings on top of web pages and share them. This doesn't exist in any browser yet.
When you select text, Edge recognizes the type of data and offers customized solutions. For example, when you highlight a phone number, it will offer to call.
Smart address bar displays search results for some queries without going to the site.
Reading mode. The page is cleared of everything unnecessary, leaving only text and photos. You can save articles you like to your reading list. The function is similar to the Pocket service.
The browser does not support extensions, but they were promised to be added in new versions at the end of 2015. This is the main drawback, without which Edge cannot fully fight its competitors. There is not even a banal Adblock yet. To block ads you can now use separate program- Adguard, but it's paid.
According to unconfirmed information, Edge will support not only extensions from the Windows Store, but also from the Chrome store.
There is a button for feedback from the developers in a prominent place.
Safety
The built-in SmartScreen filter blocks potentially dangerous sites.
Each tab is isolated - it opens in separate process, like in Chromium.

The best browser for Windows 7
Windows 7 is still the most popular operating system in the world. It accounts for almost 50% of all computers. Despite the release of Windows 10 and the rapid growth of its popularity in 2016, it remains the preferred OS for the majority of users.
Many surveys conducted have shown which browser is the most used and preferred for Windows users 7. So, for example, statistics show that 30% of devices running Windows 7 are installed with Google browser Chrome. Not far behind him Yandex browser. It accounts for about 29%. Well, the third place of honor was taken by Opera, which almost scored 15%.
From all the following we can conclude that the best browsers for Windows 7 are GC and Yandex browser.
The best browser for Windows 10
If we talk about Windows 10 and the most suitable browser for it, then the choice falls on three browsers: GC, Yandex and Microsoft Edge. And of all, it is worth highlighting the last one.The fact is that Edge was developed specifically for Windows 10. It is by far the fastest browser for this system. Many tests have shown that he is the best among all. It is several times faster than the fairly fast GC browser. In addition, after analyzing all popular browsers, it turned out that only Microsoft Edge is able to play video with a resolution of 1080p. The rest produced a picture whose resolution was only 720p. Considering that Windows 10 has the most latest technologies, then such a browser is simply irreplaceable. He is the most fast browser for 2016. However, if you evaluate its performance on Windows 7, the speed will be much lower than on Windows 7.
The best browser for 2016
Choosing the best reviewer of 2016 is difficult. It all depends on what OS you use, what region you live in and many other factors. The best options are Google Chrome and Yandex browser. They will work stably on both Windows 10 and Windows 7. Both the first and second browsers are developed on the Chromium engine, and, in fact, work the same way. The only difference is target audience. If users are more focused on the Google search engine, they will not find a better GC. If a browser is necessary for Runet users, then, of course, Yandex can help.Both browsers have a minimum of disadvantages and a maximum of positive qualities. Yandex will provide reliable protection, fast loading pages and the ability to work in “Turbo” mode.
Google Chrome, in turn, will provide the user with the latest extensions, fast page loading, security and the ability to work in incognito mode.
Choosing a browser is a personal matter for everyone. If you have Windows 10, then it is preferable to use Microsoft Edge. When using Windows 7, good options are Google Chrome and Yandex.
