Instructions: Research on the Top 10 Web Browsers that people in the world are using
today (2024).

Provide the following details:

1. Logo:

2. Name of the Web Browser: Google Chrome

3. Developer: Google
4. Short Description: Chrome is the fastest and best web browser on Microsoft
Windows and an excellent alternative to Safari on a Mac in terms of speed.
However, you agree to Google’s excessive data collection in exchange for speed
and convenience.
5. Unique Features:
 Supports Google services
 Includes tab group management
 Outperforms other browsers in tests

2. Name of the Web Browser: Mozilla Firefox

3. Developer: Mozilla, Mozilla Corporation, Mozilla Foundation, Blake Ross
4. Short Description: Mozilla’s Firefox browser isn’t known for speed. It falls into
last place in most of our tests for Windows and Mac, and that’s okay. Firefox is
more about security features than speed, which is ideal if you’re more concerned
about blocking malware than loading pages in a flash. If you want the best
internet browser that puts security first, not data collection, then Firefox is your
best bet. However, it’s not the fastest browser available.
5. Unique Features:
 Blocks cryptominers
 Prevents fingerprinting
 Stores passwords locally
 Ranks the lowest for speed in tests

6. Reference/s: The Best Web Browsers of 2024 | HighSpeedInternet.com

Provide the following details:

1. Logo:

2. Name of the Web Browser: Vivaldi

3. Developer: Jon von Tetzchner & Vivaldi Technologies
4. Short Description: Vivaldi breathes new life into the tired, repetitive web
browser design. Here you can customize the start page, create and use a custom
theme, customize and move the menu, customize the toolbar, and so on. You can
also assign browser commands to keyboard shortcuts, map commands to
gestures, and assign quick commands to the Function keys. Vivaldi is great for
customizing your browsing experience, but it doesn’t match the speed of Chrome
or Safari.
5. Unique Features:
 Provides high customization
 Protects against phishing
 Syncs data between devices

Provide the following details:

1. Logo:

2. Name of the Web Browser: Opera

3. Developer: Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner and Geir Ivarsøy
4. Short Description: As for performance, Opera holds its place as the third-fastest
browser in our tests for Windows, falling behind Chrome and Microsoft Edge. It
has a similar performance level on our MacBook, falling behind Safari, Chrome,
and Microsoft Edge in our four tests. Opera has a “battery saver” mode that
reduces background activity and pauses animations, but we verified it was
disabled before running our tests. Opera is a good web browser if you want a
built-in VPN client and social tools. It provides middle-ground performance in
terms of speed.
5. Unique Features:
 Includes a built-in VPN client
 Includes social tools
 Verifies all websites

6. Reference/s: The Best Web Browsers of 2024 | HighSpeedInternet.com

Provide the following details:

1. Logo:

2. Name of the Web Browser: Apple Safari

3. Developer: Apple
4. Short Description: Safari is the best browser for Macs, hands down. Stick with
Safari if you also have an iPhone or iPad. However, if you use other platforms like
Windows and Android, Chrome is the better multiplatform solution—if you can
ignore Chrome’s data collection woes.
5. Unique Features:
 Provides a clean privacy report
 Supports extensions
 Displays tab previews

 Competes with Chrome in speed on Mac

6. Reference/s: The Best Web Browsers of 2024 | HighSpeedInternet.com

Provide the following details:

1. Logo:

2. Name of the Web Browser: Microsoft Edge

3. Developer: Microsoft Corporation
4. . Short Description: The original Edge browser was a clunky mess despite
Microsoft’s good intentions. It used the company’s in-house EdgeHTML engine
and really couldn’t compete with Chrome. Microsoft scrapped its proprietary
engine in early 2020 and chose Chromium instead, the browser foundation used
in Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, Brave, and more. Now Microsoft Edge is highly
competitive in terms of speed. On Windows, it gives Chrome a run for its money,
falling just a hair behind Google’s browser in three of four of our tests. On our
MacBook, Chrome and Microsoft Edge are nearly identical in performance, both
falling behind Safari. Microsoft Edge is a great native browser for Microsoft
Windows and a good alternative to Safari on a Mac if you need a browser that
runs outside Apple’s ecosystem.
5. Unique Features:
 Stacks tabs vertically
 Groups websites into Collections
 Supports Dolby Audio and 4K
 Competes with Chrome in speed on Windows

2. Name of the Web Browser: Microsoft Internet Explorer Browser

3. Developer: Microsoft Corporation
4. Short Description: Internet Explorer (IE) is a web browser that formerly came
bundled with the Microsoft Windows operating system. The browser was
deprecated in Windows 10 in favor of Microsoft's new Edge Browser. It remains
available on a few versions of Windows, such as Windows 8.1, and Microsoft
Edge includes a feature called IE mode.
5. Unique Features:
 Enhanced Security Features
 Compatibility with Web Standards
 Seamless Integration with Windows Operating System
 User-Friendly Interface and Customization Options

2. Name of the Web Browser: Tor Browser

3. Developer: Syverson and computer scientists Roger Dingledine
4. Short Description: Tor (an acronym for The Onion Router) is essentially a
network that masks online traffic. Tor browser is an open-source platform
managed by volunteers and, due to its onion routing, creates anonymity for users
who access websites and servers through this network. The browser is often
used legitimately by journalists and other users who need to protect their
identities, for example, while investigating the opposition in a legal dispute, or
researching competitors.
5. Unique Features:
 Ad Blocker.
 Address Bar.
 Anomaly/Malware Detection.
 Bookmark Management.
 Dark Mode.
 Password Management.

2. Name of the Web Browser: Arc Browser

3. Developer: The Browser Company
4. Short Description: Arc is a web browser. In simple terms, it's a replacement
to Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge, but oh, also so much more... A big
part of what makes Arc great is actually the fluidity and experience when using
it. It feels more core to the operating system than any other browser on the
market.
5. Unique Features: Arc uses Spaces and it functions very similarly to Opera's
Workspaces…with a twist. Arc not only allows you to create different Spaces to
hold related tabs, but it also allows you to theme each space. Although this might
sound more form than function, it does actually help quite a bit.
