Moreover, the Safari Tab Groups you use will be accessible across all your Apple devices, letting you seamlessly transfer your browsing sessions from your Mac to your iPhone. That said, Chrome is still faster for bouncing around on multiple tabs, and oddly enough, Firefox was faster at loading pages than Safari for a tab-heavy browsing session. Despite Firefox being the slowest in a benchmark, it felt no different in speed compared to both Safari and Chrome for single-page loading. It's worth noting that for single-page loading, there is no discernible difference between any of these browsers.
Firefox: Comparable to Safari, Yet Betterįirefox has comparable speeds to Safari. That said, if you maintain a reasonable amount of tabs, you'll have an incredibly snappy browsing experience.įor comparison, Chrome's Speedometer score in our test was 275-the highest. However, this comes at the price of high resource usage, which at a high enough load alongside running other programs can cause crashes of both the browser and even your entire system. It is by far the fastest browser for multitasking across numerous tabs, thanks to keeping them loaded at all times. This is incredibly annoying, especially if you typed in a long search query and need to type it in again, but it's infrequent enough to overlook.įor comparison, Safari's Speedometer score in our test was 241. For example, occasionally, when opening a new tab, it cancels progress on loading that tab and reverts to the page you were previously on. However, it does have a few performance issues. Similarly, Safari's Reader Mode allows for much faster loading on articles with removed ads and links. These trackers can otherwise reduce the performance on many websites. Safari also has performance gains from some security and convenience features like Privacy Report and cross-site tracking prevention that block websites from collecting your personal data. For best performance, open all your tabs as soon as you open Safari for minimal waiting while browsing or working, but otherwise, it is ideal for single-tasking or with a lower quantity of tabs open simultaneously. That said, Safari is pretty stable and can consistently handle numerous open tabs across multiple windows without crashing. Safari does not load tabs until you use them to preserve battery and system resources, so compared to other options, Safari is slower for starting a browsing session. Safari: Medium in Speed, High in Convenience
