Chrome and Firefox don’t work on my phone. Chrome needs ICS. While Opera Mobile does a pretty decent job (my current browser) which among these occupy the least memory? I mean Opera is fine but it is a bit of a memory hogger. How about Dolphin? Looks wise, it’s nice.

Hey Chirpy,
1. Dolphin is feature rich but would be taking more size , Full version of it would be taking around 25 Mb and I didn’t give a try on the mini version of it.
2. Among all the browsers, I must say Opera Mini would be taking least memory.
Thanks for stopping by,
Keep in Touch.

Using Dolphin, I must admit it is superb! Though just a bit more memory than Opera, I like it a lot, sticking to it. Thanks 🙂
