Samsung Internet Browser is no longer exclusive to Samsung devices

05 June 2017
A quick look at the browser's Play Store listing reveals that the app is now also compatible with Google Nexus phones.

just downloaded samsung internet apk for my Tab S last night, before this post came out.

like the clean looks of this browser

    The Samsung browser is the best, i use it all the time with the adblocker plug in.

      Chrome is the best in my opinion. I'm used to Chrome and can't think of using any other browser. Samsung Internet Browser is quite fast but the usability sucks compared to Chrome.. All I need is a night mode feature built in Chrome..

        Anonymous, 05 Jun 2017No thanks. I'm happy with Chrome. Also Opera is superb brow... moreOpera is great, but you can choose between several ad blocking extensions for the Samsung browser from the Play Store. With Adblock Plus you can also block tracking, acceptable ads and social media buttons (but this option is too much) and it's blazing fast. Where Opera blocks 2-3 annoyances, Samsung browser blocks 10-20 and pages load crazy fast.

Opera and some others block ads too, but this one blocks more, and optionally blocks tracking as well. Using it as default.

                Dolphin browser is the best

                  This Samsung browser is great. I use this with the adblock plug-in and I'm totally happy.

                      The only thing I miss from Chrome is the auto-translate, the adblock more than makes up for it.

                        Best thing about this browser is that it downloads YouTube videos rather any video!

                          AnonD-39937, 05 Jun 2017Ok, but Chrome has always, is and will always be better... ... moreGoogle's Chrome browser is laggy and lacks fundamental features like plugin support, just so they can force all the performance breaking ads on you.
                          You should try the Samsung Browser with Adblock Plus before commenting on it... You'll clearly be surprised with how smooth mobile browsing can be.
                          Another recommended plugin is All In One Gestures, which adds Windows-like edge gestures to the browser.

                              I am using this browser in my j7 prime mobile... I think This browser speed than chrome browser in my browsing experience ,,, very comfortable and nice smooth...

                                Samsungs implementation of multi-window is still better than googles and Samsung devices have had it for years.

                                Samsungs music player is miles ahead of the stock google music player.

                                And yeah I have used Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Samsungs internet browser and I prefer Samsungs.

                                So to say Sammy are rubbish on the software side just isn't true, some of the software features and apps are alot better than the competitions.

                                  Ok, but Chrome has always, is and will always be better... It may consume more resources than other browsers , but it does it job whatever you may throw at it, it's more versatile... And we can't say that Samsung does something else than mediocre software, after all it's a hardware company.
