    I use Chrome on my S3, it syncs well with my desktop version and does the job perfectly.

    I use Opera on my phone,but it doesn't support flash so have to resort to stock browser for flash sites.

    Hmmm. To be honest I stay away from Flash nowadays so it doesn't fuss me. The Nexus 7 doesn't seem to suffer without it at all, and I don't want it on my phone either (Samsung Galaxy S2, ICS 4.04). Don't want it on my desktop either! I'm getting hardline in my old age. ;)

    I suppose if you stream a lot of TV beyond TVCatchup then yeah, but for me, time to die, Flash!

    Dolphin Browser seems the best for me

    Another vote for Dolphin on Android. Also works very well indeed on iPad.

    I use Firefox, mainly because I can sync my desktop and android device for bookmarks and passwords etc. Plus it supports flash.

    You say to firefox if you need flash, but it doesnt support flash the Nexus 7,

    It might not officially support it but I think you will find you can manually install it. Thats what I had to do on my transformer because it came with Jelly Bean on.

    Sure it does, just go to the Adobe website and install it, I did this with my N4 & N7.

    Chrome doesn't support flash though so you need to use a different browser like Firefox.

    yes! please do!

    I can't recommend boat highly enough, the gestures thing where you draw a shape on the screen and it does an action/website is brilliant

    personally, I don't see the point of using another browser aswell as the stock one for the simple reason that you cannot remove the default one so its adding unneccessary files/browser cache etc to your phones storage along with another program process..

    Not that I knock anyone for using a 3rd party browser, just my opinon of course.

    It's for tablet use though, not on a phone, so memory use is much less of an issue.
