Dolphin is probably the best file manager out there. The grouped view and meta data sorting is something that was really missing in the old Konqueror (and every other FM on Linux). The new (4.8+) display engine speed, agility and animations are also quite amazing. Of course, as I developer, I enjoyed more than once Konqueror ability to open everything inline (from remote servers), but this is not missing from Dolphin. You can still use KIO, tabs and (limited) splits. The interface is overall better. Not being able to open files inline is not very relevant (Okular is there for that).
