Google’s browser needs no introduction, but in case you feel like it does, we would, first and foremost, like to welcome you to Planet Earth. Which part of the universe have you come from? Concerning what Chrome brings to the web browser table: faster and more convenient browsing, voice search, enhanced privacy thanks to Incognito Mode, unlimited tabs, an integrated website translating module (the monstrosity known as Google Translate, committing heinous linguistic crimes since 2006), and cross-device syncing. Google Chrome holds no surprises, and we’re not entirely sure we’d choose it over either Safari or Dolphin.
