"Chrome, Firefox, when I'm tired of Edge"

Web browsers for Windows often include Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Internet Explorer. Some people use Opera, but most of them use one of the four browsers.

The world of web browsers seems small at first, but there are actually quite a few alternative browsers. These alternative browsers are working to get users' attention with their own personality, new interface concept, privacy, music and social media expertise.

When you want to surf the web in a new mood, I recommend one of the following 10 browsers that are not Firefox, Chrome, or Internet Explorer.

1. Opera Neon

Based on : Blink (Blink) rendering engines
focus : a new concept browser
Opera neon emerged in early 2017 as an experimental browser interface in terms of design and function. Opera is described as "a kind of browser performance experiment similar to" anticipating cars of the future through concept cars. " In fact, Opera introduced several features derived from Neon in a new version of Opera's mainstream browser, which was released in May.

The first time you open a neon, you'll immediately notice that the tab is not the most common browser at the top. Opening a new tab in a neon is different from other browsers. Enter the URL or click on one of the "link bubbles" to open the website.

The Opera Neon uses Chrome's blink rendering engine as well as the official Opera version.

2. Vivaldi

Focus : Advanced User

Vivaldi is a chromium-based browser aimed at the hardcore power users. From the moment you install it, you can customize various parts, including color, tab location, and start page image. Borrowed current and previous Opera feature (the former CEO of the Opera leads the current Vivaldi), and a simple browser.

Vivaldi has a side panel for viewing the speed dial function, built-in app notes, the second Web page for quick access to favorite sites. It is also rich in features to mouse gestures, keyboard shortcuts, and advanced users, such as Session Save tab, tap the stack, user interface scaling, adaptive interface colors greet.

Vivaldi was seeking the several existing browsers such as Opera geuraetdeut from initial plans to put built-in mail client. But until now, only Vivaldi's own branded webmail is available.

Vivaldi is based on Chrome, so it's compatible with the Chrome Web Store extensions

3. Maxthon

Base : Trident and WebKit
Focus : Multi-device browsing and

SocialMaston's primary function is a cloud-based account called Passport. The browsing data is synchronized across multiple devices. Mainstream browsers are all features, but they are not common in alternative browser worlds. Passport also has a feature called cloud push that shares content with friends via email or text messages.

Maxstone comes with built-in RSS reader, notepad, password manager, virtual email mailbox service (UUMail) and Adblock Plus. There is also a "reading mode" that allows you to read articles without interfering with normal websites.

Maxton uses both Trident (Internet Explorer) and WebKit (Safari), not a single engine browser. Basically you use WebKit, but when you visit an old-fashioned website that is friendly to Internet Explorer, it switches from instant to trident.

4.Torch

Torch is a browser for media lovers armed with features for music and games. It features Torch Music, a YouTube-based streaming service. Torch Games is a feature that allows you to access various web-based games with a single click. Drag and drop sharing is also useful. Dragging web content to the left opens a sidebar for sharing content on the social network, and dragging it to the right launches the search.

Even the media pirates have built in tools and torrent clients to download audio and video from sites like YouTube and Vimeo, which are essential.

5. Epic Privacy Browser

Base : Goanna - Gecko Quarter
Focus : Old Firefox

What if you missed Firefox in the past? It does not mean old real old fashioned firefox. Before the interface is applied now, if the menu button is in the upper left corner and you miss that Firefox, let's look at the fail door.

Failed to break the core Mozilla project, the first version was released in 2009. That means Firefox has picked up the open source code for Firefox and has upgraded it apart from Mozilla.

The result is a browser that is familiar to long-time Firefox users. Of course, Fail Gate and Firefox are quite different browsers internally. For example, fail-over continues to support legacy add-ons and NPAPI plug-ins. However, in today's situation, plug-in support is not necessarily good.

7. Comodo Ice Dragon (Comodo Ice Dragon)

8. Ghost Browser

Based on : Chromium
Focus : Productivity
Ghost is a browser with an exciting idea. With a browser focused on productivity, you can create a separate browser session within the same window. This allows you to set apart a tab set for business accounts and a set of tabs for personal use. Cookies are managed separately for each session, so you can stay logged in to multiple social media or email accounts simultaneously on separate tabs. Each new session tab is automatically assigned a different color.

Going one step further, you can also categorize sites by "project" with multiple tabs. For example, you can open a "social media" project with all the different accounts open in different tabs, then switch to a "Party Plan" project with tabs open for email, listing tools, and calendars.

The ghost browser is based on the freemium model. Use is free, but functionality is limited. To use a more powerful version of the browser, you pay $ 10 to $ 15 a month.

The free version is great, but the number of projects is limited to three, and the number of individual tab sessions per project is limited to three. You can also open only one project at a time. Also, free users can not use the secret mode or individual user profile functions.

The Ghost browser is chromium-based and is compatible with the Chrome Web Store.

The Avant Browser has many interesting features. A "video sniffer" is a feature that downloads videos from websites like YouTube, and "always on top" means that even when used with other desktop apps such as Outlook, Microsoft Word, Photoshop, It is a function that always comes to the top.
