Hi all
At the moment on my s7 edge I was using the Samsung browser with the advantage of using the biometrics to log in to sites
However for me personally that browser is good but on most forums apart from this one.
The sites I use the most seem to struggle with web pages,as you have to scroll round the page to read it.
Where as on this site you can scrol up and down with ease.
So I started using chrome,
now for mobiles it is really good but it does use a lot of resources and I have researched it and the experts agree as said.
So it got me thinking (watch out)
On my last device (s5) I had Firefox installed but as it was my first smartphone I was unsure what it was, so I left it alone.
But now I know it's a browser but not installed. I have read that its classed as a third party app
So does that mean if I give it a go
1 am I voiding my warranty
2 does any one have an info on wether it's worth giving it a go
3 is optimised for mobile browser
4 is there any other browser worth trying
That safe
Sorry I know I'm asking a lot here
Thanks in advance and for reading
Solved! Go to best answer.

Hi @SKYMAN513. No you won't be voiding your warranty, it's just the same as downloading another app to your phone.
Some browsers have settings which allow them to be optimised for mobile or use desktop sites, not sure about Firefox, I use chrome all the time as I have found that suits my needs.
There is no harm downloading it and giving it a go. You can easily uninstall if it's not for you.

It'll be interesting to know how you get on. You can, of course, have as many browsers as you like and switch between them, so adding Firefox (if you want to) wouldn't preclude still using Samsung's. There's often an "import bookmarks" option in browsers too, which makes switching that much easier.
