That's unfair, they may not have reproduced the 1.3Mj result, but they are consistantly hitting the 100s of Kj range, which the article addresses. This is still an important step forward, and shouldn't be dismissed frivously.

What's stopping you from installing a browser app from APKPure, or one of the other repos? Alternatively you could roll-your-own basic full screen browser via Android Studio and about 20 lines of Java.
