By what measure are they "very good" web browsers? Certainly not rendering speed, javascript benchmarks, or standards compliance.

- zygen 15y agoIf you're trying to make a serious argument that Mobile Safari is slow and incompatible, I suggest you actually use an iPad first.
- MatthewPhillips 15y agoI own one. I'm surprised you haven't noticed the lag when trying javascript intense sites (like games). Here are the iPad Nitro Sunspider results: 2121ms vs. Chrome 11: 248ms. That would make Mobile Safari javascript 8x slower than desktop Chrome (other desktop browsers have similar speeds).

- cageface 15y agoVery good only in comparison to earlier mobile/game devices. Given the choice I still prefer to browse the web on my laptop.
