I used to love this browser for its customisable nature, but following a new update thar removed the option to hide the status bar and the side of the screen where the scrolling could be chosen, the app has lost its appeal to me, the status bar being present at all times causes loss of focus on what I'm viewing. I'd be willing to return this to 5 stars if those features return.

Mostly great. Really. When it's working well, it's my favorite browser. Occasional problems occur with settings changing for no know reason. Sometimes, problems are caused by Samsung's system upgrades. In general, Samsung pushes (forces) apps and bloat-ware that most people don't want or need. Some of it resets other programs and runs a lot of background power vampires. It's very time-consuming and difficult to go through everything and reset several apps.
