I am a old user of Google Chrome today i tried Maxthon & really i am liking Maxthon very much.
Whats your opinion, Please give reason for which one you like.
 
Tried it, but didn't like it.

Some things I didn't like about it's design:
  • Sidebar
    • You're not Opera (Presto)
    • Takes up too much space
    • Too intrusive
  • Status bar
    • Didn't this go extinct or at least off by default
  • User Interface combines...
    • FF4 search engine box
    • Chrome-style address bar
    • Opera toolbar additions
    • IE9+ rectangular tabs
  • Extensions
    • Poor range of popular extensions such as AdBlock, HTTPS Everywhere etc

@trainbus120 FindTheBest is a crap website.

Maxthon is a whole lot faster than Chrome on my old system. But it really badly needs a session manager to restore tabs after crashes. The extension store for Maxthon has LastPass, but a lot is missing.

If you don't care about no session manager, go for it with Maxthon.
 
Maxthon isn't a bad browser but



What makes me not use it
  • Addons (Maxthon barely has addons... the only addon i can use is LastPass)
  • Adblock (Maxthon doesn't have a adblock addon)

Maxthon includes its own AdHunter which works great.
Yes it has limited add-ons but includes enough features by default compared to other browsers and is much faster.

It depends on the user's preferences to which is best. Why not use both?

If you just want a light fast browser with with basic functions then you can not go wrong with Maxthon.
If you are an extension freak, then Google Chrome will suit your needs much better.

Enjoy!! :D
