The browser named Baidu Browser is a product that Baidu, a large Chinese company focused on web services, has just released. They presented this Android web browser during September but if you wanted to install and use it, you had to be a member of the Baidu Forum. It became available for anyone to use during December when it was released on the Google Play market.
Baidu has a much better Java Script and HTML support than any of its competitors. The design is simple but this is on purpose to make it fast. Baidu may not be compativle with all devices because it works on a T5 engine. If your phone is able to support this feature, you will be able to install this amazingly fast and sleek browser.
Features:
- Home screen with links to social networks and your favorite websites. These are divded into categories
- Support
- Browsing and scrolling with the use of two fingers. If you tap down to up you will close a tab and if you tap from up to down you will open one. Scrolling from left to right will allow you to browse open tabs
- Bookmarks
- Incognito Mode
- Web History
- Text mode which will ignore all pictures to save bandwidth
- Screen shots
- Night Mode
- Download manager
- T5 features which include zooming and GPI rendering.
Downsides:
The only flaw we have found with the Baidu Browser in this review is that it can not synchronize with all platforms. Hopefully they fix this feature in the upcoming months.
