Droid's Snappy Web Browser

In the words of Alexander the Great, “I came, I saw and I conquered”. The Motorola DROID seems to have just done that especially where the web browser is concerned. I don’t think after trying your hands on the DROID’s browser, you would ever want to go back to your old browser.

The browser can best be described in one word i.e. snappy. It loads images in a flash thanks to the 550 MHz processor and high speed hardware accelerated graphics. Though this depends on the 3G data network coverage, once you're in it web browsing is fast and easy. On the onset, a major change. Now once the pages load up you are presented with a fully zoomed out view of the page. In addition, the browser now supports double taps to zoom, and the load times and scrolling is way snappier. However a drawback remains as there is still no multi touch. While the overall browsing speed is not that great as the iPhone 3GS, things like auto-prediction on URL entry make it bearable. The streamed videos from sites like YouTube look very impressive; the playback of high definition videos is excellent with no stalling. The quality of audio is also top class through the pair of high quality headphones. The music player supports building playlists, album art, loop, shuffle and normal playback modes. DRM-free music can be purchased at the Amazon MP3 store via the preloaded application on the mobile.

Most of the alterations are subtle, that is they do not jump at you and make you fall of your chair. However there are some notable visual tweaks worth mentioning. New fade effects and cross-application animations make the device suited to our times. Additionally, all the icons have been updated to give the UI a rich feel.
