Maxthon browser on the Fire?

grvthang · 02-04-2012, 06:08 PM

has anyone had experience with the Maxthon browser on the Fire? Its available in the App Store, but I haven't heard anyone mention using it. I wonder if it's a decent alternative to Silk (ive been using Opera Mobile).

Haven't used it on the KF but it's a decent browser on the iPad. Why not give it a try and see what you think?

I like Dolphin on my Fire, personally.

I tried maxthon and didn't like it; the user interface was confusing (at least to me). Dolphin was next and I use it all the time. it's much faster than silk.

I tried it for a couple of days. It started hanging up, and I went back to Opera Mobile.

I just installed it when I found a site that wouldn't work right with the Fire's built in browser. Maxthon seems to work fine, but I haven't dug into it too much yet.
