We recently ran new benchmarks comparing Brave against the three most widely used desktop browsers: Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.
We found that Brave for desktop is faster, uses less energy, consumes less CPU and memory, and transfers less data. Specifically, across all tested browsers Brave:

• Uses on average 44% less CPU
• Uses on average 10% less energy
• Uses on average 28% less memory
• Loads pages 20% faster
• Transfers 26% less inbound data
• Transfers 39% less outbound data

I agree to that based on my usage.
All made possible because of the default AdBlocker and Privacy Focus.

I have been using Brave on my mobile and tablet for years. Happy with it for Android adblocking. I use Chrome on my desktop and notebooks with extensions such as Ghostery.
I have no idea whether these performance claims are true, but may give it a go in the desktop.
