My experience vivaldi on s20 plus android 11
-
Tried few vivaldi versions. Atm still on 3.2.1996
I have also tested kiwi bromite Firefox brave browser chrome opera and Edge.
Vivaldi uses around 1gb of ram sometimes. More than chrome. On newest vivaldi 3.8 & 3.7 if you go to some websites where there are many videos and you open each video in each tab, videos will freeze. It doesn't happen on 3.2.1996 and I found out it's not vivaldi issue but chrome as I tested it on chrome and the same issue..
On newest vivaldi 3.8 & 3.7 sometimes when I perform lots of tasks I will see two bottom bars and only after I restart browser one dissapears.
Impossible to remove bottom strip bar in vivaldi. And that makes browser look bloated.
Why not allow users to completely remove bottom bar?Out of browsers I have tested only kiwi with extension blocks ads , brave browser blocks ads and vivaldi with ease blocks ads, also Firefox blocks ads
Slowest browsers are Opera Edge Chrome and Firefox
Snapiest, around 600mb ram usage, brave nightly 1.25.28 but has issue of video freezing if you open to many tabs, if you use older version of brave it won't be as fast anymore.
Older vivaldi such as 3.2.1996 is second best it doesn't freeze videos, it blocks ads but it uses more ram than brave browser.
Out of all browsers I have tested fastest was Firefox 67 it was as fast as safari on iPhone. Funny no? Safari on iPhone without ads blocking and tweaking is almost three times as fast as newest Firefox on android. Actually safari is the fastest mobile browser on this planet, not sure about Mars.
Shame mozilla has bloated Firefox with crap and now it became so sluggish, instead they should just improve a bit ver 67. Like dark mode and copy paste doesn't work well on Firefox 67. And it would be the greatest browser on android. Equal to safari on iPhone.Vivaldi has chance of becoming best, when it comes to speed java rendering for example it's as fast as brave browser or bromite, but a bit of clogged esp because of that bottom bar and it uses a bit more ram than brave and bromite.
