It's actually the first time I hear of "Samsung Internet Browser".
- input_sh 3y agoIt's just a skin of Chromium that Samsung phones use as a default browser.
- Mindwipe 3y agoSamsung's Browser will very likely overtake Firefox in share this year. It's just Chromium, but it's superior in performance and features IMO to Chrome itself.
- leesalminen 3y agoAn interesting take. I’m not a Samsung user, but these days I get enough bug reports about issues specific to Samsung browser that I had to buy a device just to reproduce the random weird stuff that happens. The latest one had to do with Samsung browsers’ dark mode which has some strange algorithm to make every website dark.
- bcx5k15 3y agoI understand why - quite important on Samsungs to use dark mode and not just at night, as their OLED screens draw a less power displaying dark colours, giving improved battery life
- Mindwipe 3y agoThe fact it has a proper dark mode that doesn't require sites to support it is one of it's best features IMO. It is a lifesaver when trying to get a small child to sleep.
- leesalminen 3y agoI, too, like dark mode. But, I've found several instances that required the site to make modifications to support dark mode. Most recent example was a QR code rendered as <svg> with a transparent background. The parent container had a white background. Samsung made the parent background black but didn't invert the QR code color. So as a result the QR code was unusable.
