Browsers
Top web browser according to benchmarks, yet requires powerful hardware and lots of resources: Chrome Fastest Web shines in efficiency; Firefox performs well; Opera excels on slower connections. For optimal battery performance, high DPI support, and a smooth touch interface: IE11 is recommended. Chrome, Firefox, and Opera all handle high DPI well, but the touch experience falls short. It works, but could be improved.
It really doesn't matter which of the four major browsers you use—they all perform similarly these days. I’d focus on what each offers. Firefox gives you greater control, customization, and privacy. Google services run more smoothly and faster in their own browser. On YouTube, 60fps playback is now available only in Chrome at the moment, but it’s expected to expand soon. Ultimately, I’d test each one to see which fits your needs best, since speed depends on your computer as well.
Opera faces unusual issues as well. It seems to run using Chrome but struggles with high frame rates in videos. Additionally, recently I encountered problems where certain websites appeared on mobile forums, suggesting Opera wasn't intended for desktop use.
