in future versions it would be better to have zoom capability like Opera Mini.

hello ppl. im using skyfire on a tg01 from tosh. and is very nice. the fastest !! had no problems so far. it does feel like a desktop experience. used al of the above …and this is the fastest and the closest to what it should be web browsing in a phone. so except the privacy issues is hands down 1 of the nicest browsers. and by the way…ppl that do make this kind of reviews…should use devices as even on the specs side as possible…skyfire in my phone (4.1″ screen) is BETTER than the iphone experience that everyone raves about…but it doesnt look as nice when u compare it with an iphone ‘experience’ if the device u using is a device that has a 3.1″ screen(spv m700). and this shoub be observed when comes to the power of the device. now that i run skyfire in a very fast device…..leaves everyone in the dust (ran al of them in the same phone (except safari ofcourse))so now i do have only 2 browsers. this 4 everyday use and when securitiy is a priority… the slow one from microsoft that came with the device.

I have tried about seven browser on my n95.

I still have four intalled.
They are sky fire , opera , Bolt, and the native browser.

The one that get used the most is BOLT, not because it is the best (It is real darn good) but what I do most of the time it does it best.

But I use each for the functions it handles the best.

Skyfire is great but it kill batteries too quickly, but it is the closest you could ever get to the pc.

Bolt is my favorite because you do a lot less scrolling when you want to focus on reading content.

Dont know anything about Safari.

I am waiting for the firefox brand.

Three of the best mobile browsers that act like grown up ones are Mobile Safari, Skyfire and Opera Mobile 9.5. Even though the latter two (both for Windows Mobile) are still betas, Laptop Mag decided to toss them all into a race anyway, seeing which could deliver piping hot content the fastest. They ran Opera and Skyfire on an AT&T HTC Tilt, so everyone was surfing on the same 3G network with beefy hardware. Spoiler: Skyfire delivered pages in one third of the time it took Safari or Opera. It’s because Skyfire cheats.

This article and most of the comments miss a tremendously important point about “Skyfire”. It is constantly watching everything you browse, every piece of data you enter, and everything you bookmark, as well as your geographical location. It is unbelievably intrusive to your privacy. Your emails, your passwords, your bizarre sexual deviancies are all being collected on servers at Skyfire.

Skyfire is not a browser, it’s a Big Brother. Best hope it isn’t hacked. I think I can live without Flash support on my phone for a while longer.
