How πŸš€ Fast is HuBrowser?

TIP

Speed is HuBrowser's top priority. We are probably the fastest browser.

All decisions are made with speed in mind. It does compromise a bit on features and design, but you can always install multiple browsers.

We click countless times on screens in our lives. HuBrowser makes each click faster and more elegant in your digital life.

Fast baseline

  • Based on the Chromium engine, a fast baseline

    • Google has optimized it for years, with diminishing improvements recently
  • Removed bloat from browser engine

    • Carefully removed tracking:
      • Behavioral tracking, sentiment analysis, shopping logs, etc.
    • Carefully removed bloat:
      • Compatibility support for obsolete devices
      • Disabled enterprise features
  • Removed debugging code

    • Unconventional since now crashes are unreported and cannot establish the exact context of errors, but does speed things up without logging stack traces
    • Please reach out if you experience a crash
  • Basic sensible ad blocking

    • Not too aggressive to ensure a net speed boost and avoid breakage

Code improvements

  • Pure 64-bit build
    • All phones now are 64-bit
  • Rewrote critical components in more efficient languages
    • JavaScript β†’ Java β†’ C++
  • Added memory, power, and lifecycle management to the Android browser
  • Holistic project management
    • Large tech projects like browsers typically divide work into hundreds of components, and each developer becomes specialized in a specific component
    • HuBrowser is able to look at the project holistically and make meaningful connections and structures that span across components
Example

Clicking this link in YouTube post shows YouTube's confirmation page. But HuBrowser takes you directly to the destinationβ€”no extra steps, no waiting.

  • By intelligently analyzing various elements (URL, website elements, address book, DNS, etc.), it directly reaches the target server, skipping these intermediate steps:
    • Confirm if you want to open a link (Websites want to increase site retention time)
    • Short pause on third-party links (ad calculations and data collection)
    • Gateway jump (jump to regional substation .com, .cn, add/remove www, etc.)
  • Preloading and prerendering make direct link access faster
  • HuBrowser achieves this not only through technical innovation but also through business model innovation. A paid browser is a new market; you might think browsers should be free. But because we don't need to sell your data to intermediaries, we can skip them and go directly to the target.

Example

Feel the speed

  • The best way to experience HuBrowser's speed is to try it yourself. Open the same link side by side with HuBrowser and any other browser.

  • See how fast HuBrowser opens a link with QR scan (3 seconds vs. 5 seconds in Chrome/QQ Browser):
