Really lightweight with some advanced, not complete but easy to use privacy features. Simple design and customizable toolbars. No download manager or addon support.

Open-source, lightweight browser.

Probably the fastest browser I have ever used. Every webpage loads almost instantly on my internet.

plays youtube, look's ancient, runs fast, works well for 2000-2005 era hardware,

lacks very modern features, user interface feels clunky
