I appreciate the scroll box buttons for the scroll bar! However the settings manager is handled within a web page tab, and it's difficult to locate specific options and features without having to resort to the search box. It looks like Chromium to me with a few minor tweaks. Let’s take a look at some of the things that sets Brave apart. My review here is limited by my use case, so such features as the BAT token are meaningless to me, so there may be a gap in some aspects of the browser for this review. I've managed to avoid Chromium based browsers as a primary web platform until now. My history with web browsers has primarily existed within the sphere of Mozilla and NetScape, and some with the old Internet Explorer. Of late, I’ve been dabbling some with the Chromium based browser Brave. "Brave is built by a team of privacy focused, performance oriented pioneers of the web, including the inventor of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla." - Brave Software, Inc. Although Brave’s settings are similar to that of Chrome and feature HTTPS everywhere and Tor integration, it does not come close to Google’s security."Brave is on a mission to fix the web by giving users a safer, faster and better browsing experience while growing support for content creators through a new attention-based ecosystem of rewards.". Google scans for malicious downloads, is quick to fix bugs or loopholes and allows you to send “Do not track” requests to your browsing traffic. So where does Chrome overachieve? Well, there are lots of things and one of the main ones is security. Although Chrome does have adblocker extensions, adding extensions can sometimes decrease the security of your browser. Brave is definitely a new competitor to go along with the likes of Firefox and Tor for users concerned about their privacy. Brave on the other hand blocks trackers by default keeping your data private. Users should be aware that Google is always watching over your shoulder and collecting your data, as its livelihood is based on this. The first reason is privacy, due to the growing awareness of how big tech companies collect and use our data. But what are the main differences and why are so many people switching to Brave? Google Chrome obviously still dominates the market. If you are using mobile data and downloading ads this could obviously cost you! However, by blocking these ads you’re not paying for unwanted content! Save Money: You might even find that Brave could help you to save money.Tor Integration: Brave integrates Tor into the browser and gives users a new browsing mode that helps protect their privacy not only on a device but also over the network.By sharing less data with advertisers your privacy will be kept intact. Block Trackers: Improve your online privacy with Brave which stops trackers from taking your data which includes the likes of Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, etc.Block Ads: The browser is ad-free by default, stopping unwanted ads from ever appearing on the screen.Browse Faster: Brave can save you time, as the browser is very fast and they boast that news sites load up to 8x faster than with Chrome or Safari.But what are the other features of using Brave? The browser shows you the number of ads that have been blocked, HTTPS upgrades and the time you have saved. So confident, that these are shown as soon as you launch their browser, along with its performance. Brave are pretty confident in the benefits you’ll get using their browser.
