2345 Ace Browser
Today, we've chosen to compare the most popular domestic third-party mobile browsers in recent years: QQ Browser, Baidu Browser, Opensource Browser, Baidu Browser, UC Browser, Cheetah Browser, and 360 Browser. In order to ensure the accuracy of the review, we conducted the test in a 3G network, the test model is Meizu MX3, the system version of Android 4.2.1.
Browser traffic comparison
In China, I believe that the most important concern for every user of the cell phone to access the Internet is how to save the traffic. That's right, into the era of mobile Internet, web pages do more and more beautiful, more and more pictures, some also added FLASH and HTML5, these for the use of cell phone traffic on the Internet friends is painful, both want to see the beautiful web pages and want to save traffic, it seems to be a fish and bear the paw and can't have both. So an excellent cell phone browser must have good traffic control capabilities. After all, to save traffic is to save money, who consumes less traffic will inevitably get the user's heart.
We'll start with a comparison of Internet traffic for each of the six browsers. We used these six browsers to open the wap page of 58.com and the web page of Mobile China, and recorded the amount of traffic consumed by the six browsers after opening the complete web page. To ensure the accuracy of the test, all the browsers were restored to their default settings before the test, and the browsing history was cleared after each webpage opened. The results are shown below.
As you can see, UC Browser's performance in terms of Internet traffic is very strong, and in the same network environment, whether you open a wap site or a web site, it consumes much less traffic than the other five browsers, which can be said to be a complete victory, thanks to the cloud-based architecture used by the UC Browser's U3 kernel, which is capable of compressing the page traffic by more than 60%, and the fact that UC Browser's U3 kernel can compress the page traffic by more than 60%, which is a great help for the Internet. The UC Browser uses a cloud-based architecture that compresses page traffic by more than 60%, using very little traffic when the page is perfectly open. The QQ Browser, Baidu Browser and Cheetah Browser have a moderate performance, with slightly lower traffic consumption; Opensource Browser and 360 Browser consume more traffic, and there is still much room for improvement in terms of traffic saving.
Opening a web page with UC Browser
Browser memory usage comparison
Compared with the PC system, the memory of the mobile system is very small. Especially on large-screen phones, in the website UI design is more and more gorgeous today, the shiny appearance often need more memory resources to support, once the browser occupies too much memory, not only will the browser itself will have an impact on the smoothness of the browser, and sometimes also affect other background programs. So let's test the memory usage of these 6 mobile browsers when browsing the same website. In this test, we chose mobile Sina.com, which is a website that people browse more, and recorded the startup memory, open webpage memory, and background memory size of these 6 browsers. The tests were also conducted in the same network environment.
Website Browser Startup Memory(KB) Open Memory(KB) Background Memory(KB)
UC Browser 65400 102800 78400
QQ Browser 96604 174200 101200
Baidu Browser 99600 173026 141970
360 Browser 106500 167720 135000
Cheetah Browser 134300 265700 100670
Open Browser 103560 263500 244800
From the above table, it can be seen that, whether it is in the browser's startup memory, open web page memory, or the background memory occupied by the UC Browser is much smaller than the other browsers, and the other browsers still need to improve their memory footprint. UC Browser in this test to stand out, but also with the recent optimization of UC's U3 kernel is inseparable. From the test performance, using UC Browser to browse the Internet, not only can ensure the smoothness of the Internet, but also the phone will not lag, and will not affect the use of other background programs.
Summary:
From the above data, UC Browser 9.5 version of its self-developed U3 kernel has been greatly optimized, both in terms of saving traffic and memory consumption performance is remarkable. And from the performance of the test, UC Browser in the browsing speed and download speed to achieve a substantial increase in the speed of performance is also very good, it seems that UC publicized UC 9.5 networking speed increased by 42%, download speed increased by 61% is not just empty talk. The performance of several other browsers are also considered moderate, in terms of traffic use and memory consumption are still some room to rise. However, with competition comes development, and I believe that these well-known third-party mobile browsers, driven by healthy competition, will bring our users a better and better Internet browsing experience.
