BETA RELEASE

Summary

Brave publishes performance test results for its Android browser, comparing battery, CPU, memory, page load speed, and bandwidth against Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and DuckDuckGo.

Key quotes

Brave for Android continues to be faster, use less battery and CPU, and consume less mobile data or Wi-Fi bandwidth.
We attribute these performance wins to Brave’s advanced privacy and security features, which block ads, trackers, fingerprinting, and bounce tracking by default.

The tests were conducted using a Google Pixel 6a running Android 13 and the BLaDE open-source infrastructure. The evaluation compared Brave (v1.80.113) against the latest versions of Chrome, DuckDuckGo, Edge, and Firefox.
