### "Excellent pour éviter les publicités"

June 10, 2024

5.0

Brave est un excellent navigateur dont le focus est la sécurité et la navigation sans fioritures. J'adore utiliser YouTube avec Brave car c'est tellement agréable de lancer n'importe quelle vidéo sans publicités de 15 à 30 secondes qui coupent votre contenu. De plus il est possible d'écouter une vidéo en audio même quand l'écran de votre iPhone est éteint. Brave permet aussi de sauvegarder vos donnée un peu comme le faisait Opera Mini ce qui est très utile si vous voyagez avec un package de données pas très généreux. Je recommande fortement Brave

Pros

La possibilité de visionner YouTube sans publicités et en mode PiP souvent réservé aux abonnés YouTube Premium sur iPhone Le VPN intégré Le Crypto Wallet intégré pour éviter trop d'applis

Cons

Pas disponible sur TV, j'aurai aimé qu'il soit disponible sur Android TV ou Apple TV. J'aurai aimé qu'une liste de lecture soit disponible comme Pocket

J'utilise aussi Arc Search qui est pas mal avec intégration IA qui compile et fait des résumés de nos recherches.

### "Probably the easiest secure browser to use"

June 9, 2023

4.0

Very positive. Download, install, configure a few items, browse. Dead easy!

Pros

Easy setup, but there's a lot of customisation available if that's what you want.

Cons

The choice of avatar. I'd like to be able to upload my own avatar design.

### "Bewertung für meiner Meinung nach den besten Browser"

January 3, 2024

5.0

Pros

An Brave finde ich am besten, das es einen integrierten Werbe- und Trackerblocker gibt, was dafür sorgt, das man besser Surfen kann und die Privatsphäre auch erhöht wird. Dann gibt es ja auch noch den integrierten VPN der auch beim Thema Privatsphäre hilft. Besonders gut finde ich auch die Seitenleiste die ich auch sehr häufig verwende.

Cons

Der VPN kostet Geld. Ich kann es verstehen das der VPN Geld kostet. Die müssen ja auch irgendwie Geld machen aber ich find es Schade.

Switched from

[Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/)

Ich fand das Design von Brave einfach viel besser und die Seitenleiste war mir auch wichtig.

### "One of the safest search engines at the moment "

January 22, 2024

5.0

Pros

The two main things that sparked my interest in Brave and made it the only browser I use are the Ads and Cookies blockers. You don't need to install or use another app, you don't have to go through multiple or complicated steps to activate the blockers. It is a simple procedure that 100% works.

Cons

There are no downsides to using Brave, but if there is a thing I would improve, it would be the possibility of having more freedom to customize the browser. For now, there are only a limited number of extensions available.

### "Brave is a good browser especially if you work online a lot."

August 18, 2023

5.0

Brave is a good browser especially if you work online a lot, as you can use its many features and tools without leaving the browser. For example the built in private news feed allows me to not only follow publications, but also customize it with blogs and newsletters I follow. Also, any Brave Search query can be served directly from Brave’s own index, enabling users to benefit from a fully independent search engine that protects your identity.

Pros

I used to use a hand-full of browsers, for different types of uses, however, Brave seems to work well with most of the things I use it for so no need to switch browsers. Also, though it does not affect performance, I like how Brave simply serves the customer without any polorizing agendas like you find from Big Tech.

Cons

I used to use Vivaldi Browser, and one this Brave does not have in comparison is a Notes app that syncs between the desktop and Android browsers. Otherwise Brave has similar features and more, and they seem to be well desined and better thought out a bit.

Alternatives considered

[Firefox](https://www.capterra.com/p/228987/Firefox/)[Vivaldi Browser](https://www.capterra.com/p/229063/Vivaldi-Browser/)[Tor Browser](https://www.capterra.com/p/229866/Tor-Browser/)

Reason for choosing Brave

I seems to work for everything I use it for. Seems fast and smoothe. You get a similar experience both with the Windows and Android, so you don't have to remember the diference of each as it is mostly the same.

### "Good Private Browsing Experience"

November 11, 2022

4.0

Overall pretty Good with my limited exploration so far.

Pros

1\. Doesn't go overload on the memory while using all work related sites I browse including all Google Business Suit applications, which was usual with time experienced in Chrome/Edge/Firefox earlier.2. As well helps in my basic development scenarios like debug and all, which I do occasionally per situation to help the team.3. Other features I expect from any browser or has it in any browser is present and that's make it all for me this to work well.4. No Ads/No Tracking/Again No Ads due to that is all makes it peaceful.5. In addition it gives you some incentives for popping-up adds \[non-disturbing and totally optional\]. Not sure how does that hep but I am just trying to see what it is and made it ON for me.

Cons

1\. Some important URLs you may have browsed some sessions ago and you want it now to have it now, difficult to trace through. Not sure, may be because of privacy feature or what. Sometime feel blank when you need that URL very urgently and you can't jump on like Chrome.

Switched from

[Microsoft Edge](https://www.capterra.com/p/229037/Microsoft-Edge/)[Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/)

1\. Memory usage over time and difficult behaviour at times.2. Lot of Tracking/Adds may be making it lot of happening in background.

### "Di adiós a la publicidad con Brave"

April 26, 2023

5.0

Mi experiencia es buena. Brave no aporta grandes cosas a los navegadores, pero dado que adoro navegar tranquilo, lo uso para evitar la publicidad

Pros

Brave es un navegador que tienes las mismas funcionalidades que otros de la compentencia, pero destaca por su potencia a la hora de bloquear publicidad. Eso te permite una navegación más tranquila y segura.

Cons

Se echan de menos algunas características de otros navegadores, como mayor integración de los complementos. Además tiene los menús y características en otros lugares a los de los navegadores que suelo usar, lo que hace que esté algo perdido.

### "Best browser for multi taskers and professionals"

September 11, 2022

5.0

My overall experience with Brave Browser is excellent.

Pros

The best thing about Brave Browser is that it does not slow down the PC even if we open many tabs simultaneously. Another good thing is that it has an inbuilt ad blocker which works perfectly and blocks many harmful and annoying ads in websites. Also, there is a feature which enables a user to get paid in cryptocurrency which is a unique feature and is not available in other commonly used browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox. Also, webpages can be easily bookmarked so that we can come back to it later. Another good thing is that the user interface of the browser is simple and easy to use. Also, the browser offers a lot of customization.

Cons

I did not find anything bad about Brave Browser.

### "My amazing experience which brave"

October 10, 2021

5.0

My overall experience was amazing it was one of the best browsers I have seen better than chrome and another browser it is meanly my main browser but sometimes I do change browser but normally I use brave.

Pros

I like how simple the browser is and its interface, in my opinion, a good interface will make more people go on the browser. Another feature which I like is the custom settings I like the ad blocker because ads are annoying on some website which might try to attack which a fake ad, this can help people not get a virus. Another good aspect is the private browsing and the privacy options, this has helped me in any situation where a website was trying to take my IP address and more.

Cons

I don't like how you can't change your profile picture when you make an account in brave, it would be very nice that you can change your profile picture or just have more types of profile pictures the normal option looks bland and boring it would help if there was more option

### "Canales de bloqueo para anuncio"

November 2, 2022

5.0

Pros

En realidad te sientes mas seguro al navegar, con tu propia personalización de lo que puedes llegar a ver y no ver, las estadísticas de tu perfil es algo que me gusta mucho porque siempre puedes estar informado del funcionamiento del buscador sin tener que recurrir a una petición del estado de uso

Cons

Las funciones de pago por ver anuncios tienen que ser mas estrictas con la personalización, ya que a veces no se cumple con las expectativas que se generan cuando uno piensa en usar el software

### "Privacy for everyone"

October 13, 2022

5.0

I've been using Brave for about two years now and am delighted with it. I switch to it from other browsers because of two main things - privacy protection and cryptocurrency earning. Users' privacy is protected by ad and tracker blockers - as the name says, they block ads and web trackers. This makes pages much more readable and loads much faster, saving both transfer and time. The browser and privacy options are highly customizable, so users can tailor everything to their needs. Brave is similar to other Chromium-based browsers, so it is convenient to use and is also compatible with Chrome files and plugins. Huge community support and ongoing development make it a great alternative to other browsers on the market. One of the huge advantages is the cryptocurrency earning system and the community support associated with it. It is possible to define how many ads per hour the user wants to see. For each ad displayed, a small amount of cryptocurrency is awarded to the viewer. This 'money' can be paid out or sent to specific site creators to support them. However, to withdraw the cryptocurrency, one must perform KYC with the company that provides the wallet. Unfortunately, Brave is still a lesser-known alternative to the major market companies, so it is rarely considered when testing websites, which can result in errors (e.g. lost transactions if blockers were enabled) or broken layouts. All in all, this is an amazing piece of code. Highly recommended if you value your privacy!

Pros

Many features - especially the ad blocker and tracker blocker. Customizability. Compatibility with Chromium-based browsers (including Chrome) - import/export, plugins, etc. Vast community support. Cryptocurrency ad earning. Developer support.

Cons

Some plugins are not supported because of browser differences. The way of withdrawing cryptocurrency. Sometimes pages are broken because of built-in blockers.

### "Brave, navega online sin anuncios por todas las plataformas 😎🥳"

September 23, 2022

5.0

Pros

Principalmente me sorprende su bloqueador de anuncios, ya que restringe el spam, las ventanas emergentes e incluso los anuncios en plataformas de streaming o contenido audiovisual, cosa que en mi celular no podía. Gracias a esto, utilizo como navegador predeterminado a Brave tanto en en el escritorio como en mi dispositivo móvil. También se integra muy bien con apps web3 y todo lo relacionado con el mundo blockchain, lo cuál es otro motivo para recomendarlo, es compatible con TODAS las extensiones y plugins de sus competencias asique esa no es una excusa para cambiar y probar este maravilloso navegador 😎👍

Cons

le faltaría una mayor personalización en cuanto a tema visual, y la opción de "forzar página oscura" en todos los sitios por los que navegamos. (Otros navegadores de la competencia si poseen ésta última opción y es muy útil para horarios nocturnos)

### "Browser for speed and security"

March 23, 2022

The browser is excellent it blocks ads provides private browsing and even allow to watch YouTube videos without ads and also how can we skip about money. It's the best browser I ever used after using this I completely reduce the usage of chrome

Pros

The browser is awesome. It loads fast and uses less ram than previous browser chrome . It also give user the access to control about the privacy tools and it provides anonymity and private browsing. Out of all these this broser gives money in form of bat tokens cryptocurrency

Cons

Recently the amount of bat tokens per ad is decreased. Now the take taken to earn ad is increased. The number brave ads coming to browser also decreased

### "This is Really Best , Safe and Secure Browser I ever use !"

February 21, 2022

5.0

My experience is really good I shifted From chrome to here and I am using this Browser from a long time. I really so much Happy I use that browser. specially I like his Ads blocker ! I can happily watch YouTube Videos but I have one request from brave team, Please Add side bar for quick access to social media Specially WhatsApp Web. Because there is lots of user's who are using WhatsApp if brave do something about this then this is the best Browser! Its also faster then chrome I recommend every one to Use This Browser!

Pros

I really love this feature. and I most like feature called Ads Blocker !. In these day' websites have so many popup ads its so irritating. but after Installing brave I love all popup ads are blocked !

Cons

I really love that browser but there is something missing feature. brave are good but there is feature missing is WhatsApp Web. If you see Opera Browser it's have special windows for WhatsApp Web. Which we can minimize and Maximize any time. So I think if brave browser team add some side bar for social media like Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp then may be this is the one of the best browser I ever Used!

### "Brave- A modern age browser."

April 6, 2023

5.0

I'm happy with Brave. It has all the features needed in this ad-filled world. Feels good to be able to browse with fewer ads. Integration into my workflow was easy.

Pros

The biggest factor to Brave's advantage is it's privacy and ad blocker. It stops non-essential cookies and vastly reduces the number of ads you see on a daily basis. It has all features of a browser, and it works the same as Chrome, functionally. Easy to download and install. Mobile version is optimised for continuity between platforms.

Cons

The whole concept of BAT is not very easy to understand for most users. It also requires a decentralised wallet to collect, and a high amount is required to cash out. It's also quite RAM hungry, as it's made with Chromium framework just like Chrome.

Alternatives considered

[Firefox](https://www.capterra.com/p/228987/Firefox/)[Vivaldi Browser](https://www.capterra.com/p/229063/Vivaldi-Browser/)

Reason for choosing Brave

### "Un navegador web "valiente""

July 13, 2023

5.0

Excelente, no he encontrado una opcion similar en navegadores web basados en Chromium. Simplemente, recalcando que este es un comentario subjetivo, tiene todo lo que buscaba de un navegador web: Es facil de usar, nunca he tenido "cuelges" o situaciones donde el programa se "trabe", se siente como llega a ser un navegador web que ocupa los recursos de tu pc de una manera fluida y sin quitar rendimiento a otros programas o incluso juegos.

Pros

Optimización al máximo en casi cualquier pcBloqueo de publicidad automático (y desactivable en cualquier caso)Bloqueo de cookies y rastreadoresRespeto por la privacidad del usuario y facilidades para la misma (incluso incluye TOR y servicios de VPN integrados)Compatibilidad total con extenciones de ChromeGanancias por ver publicidad que no llega a fastidiar

Cons

La sincronización de datos no es por cuentas, sino por código. Personalmente se me ha hecho tedioso tener que buscar ese código para no perder mis datos de navegación en nuevos dispositivos. Sin embargo, es literalmente lo único que me llega a desagradar de este navegador.

### "My daily browser for many reasons!"

June 30, 2021

5.0

Overall, my experience with Brave is amazing: great speed, enabled ad-blocking, privacy based and extra earnings with Brave Rewards for just browsing the web (an action I do everyday anyways). Even though there is room of improvement for the support service, the Brave community is extraordinary (one of the best I see nowadays) and I can find almost all my questions answered on the Brave forum. I can only recommend Brave and I use it everyday. It is my daily browser.

Pros

What I most like about this software is that it is privacy-based: I can turn on the Brave Shield and opt-in and opt-out for trackers, cookies and scripts all over the web! I also like the speed of navigation and the enabled adblocking on Brave. I use this browser with Brave Rewards enabled that rewards me with BAT tokens (Basic Attention Token) whenever it shows a Brave Ad (an ad for its many partners). What I love about Brave is also its environment and the diversity of products: Brave News (similar to Google Discovery), Brave Search Beta (a search engine running currently on Beta) and Brave Together (similar to Google Meet).

Cons

I don't have any particular negative thing to point about this software, but once I needed to contact its support service regarding an order I placed from Brave Swag Store (a merchandising store owned by Brave) and at the time I am writing this very review I didn't get a response back. I still managed to solve the issue with my order anyways. Now focusing only on the Brave software itself (the core theme regarding this review), I didn't face any problems yet so far and I can only recommend it.

Switched from

[Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/)

I did make the switch since I was looking for a different and privacy based browser. I found in Brave all my needs and it also rewards me for browsing the web, which Google Chrome doesn't. I may say however that Brave is a Chromium web browser and it is based on Chrome, but it has its own features and identity.

### "Fast brower, privacy and earning crypto"

August 12, 2021

5.0

When I downloaded The Brave browser I just tried it. After a couple of days of testing, I made it my default browser, and still, it is my number one browser.

Pros

When to start from? Brave browser is a super-fast, minimalistic browser. I like it because it is really fast. There is a perfect option for privacy, which could be customized for your needs. Last but not least - you can make money browsing. As a former Chrome user - I imported all my bookmarks and passwords.

Cons

I noticed when I am using the brave browser my CPU is busier. That is not big deal if you have a good laptop, but could be an issue for an older PC.

Reason for choosing Brave

I still using different browsers - Google Chrome, Mozzila, Opera, and Brave for different purposes. But my default browser is Brawe. Why - because of the privacy and earning crypto.

Switched from

[Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/)

The main reason for switching from Google Chrome to The Brave was the ability to earn crypto BAT. But over time I found much more useful options and features in Brave compare to Google Chrome. When I was using Google Chrome there are a lot of crashes over time. There are no such crashes using Brave.

### "Brave offers a fast and private browsing experience"

December 28, 2021

4.0

Brave is a fast and efficient browser that provides users with a secure browsing experience. The browser is easy to use and it has helped me to surf the internet comfortably. The browser loads webpages quickly which has helped me to get academic and business related information online in a timely manner. Moreover, the browser has provided a variety of privacy options such as VPN and incognito windows, which has helped me to feel more secure when I am browsing the internet.

Pros

Brave is a fast browser that loads webpages quickly. As a result, I have been able to conduct research for business and academic purposes in a more efficient manner. Furthermore, the browser is very secure since it provides users with a myriad of privacy options such as VPN, private search, incognito windows, and ad- blocking. Consequently, I feel very safe when I browse the internet because I know that my private/personal data will be protected.

Cons

Brave takes up a lot of storage space on my laptop and mobile device which has caused me to delete applications so that my devices do not have storage issues. In addition, Brave does not display all of the content on some pages such as videos and images, which has frustrated me several times.

### "Unique browser in itself"

August 28, 2022

5.0

I have been using the Brave browser for my daily browsing needs for more than 3 years now. I started with a pursuit to earn BAT tokens from searching but slowly fell in love with the way Brave Browser works. I feel more secure and safe while browsing on Brave Browser. I love how it's Privacy Hub the most which show the amount of data saved, estimated time saved, and the number of trackers 7 ads blocked by it. I also like the Brave Talk feature that lets a user start private video calls with up to 4 people at once, right from the browser itself.

Pros

Brave is a distinctive browser that gives a unique browsing experience to its users. Its clean interface makes it easy for the users to navigate through various features provided by Brave Browser. The unparalleled tracker and ad blocking feature are what make the Brave browser stand out from the crowd. It also comes with Brave firewall plus VPN feature which aims at giving a secured browsing experience.

Cons

Brave Browser is a great alternative to other browsers as it gives a secure and personalized browsing experience to its users. It has an attractive reward system as well wherein users can earn BAT tokens for watching ads. I feel this reward system is quite confusing for me as the number of BAT tokens earned stays the same for me even after watching the ads.

Also with Brave users can experience more secure internet usage by using shields and tor private browsing feature. So, brave is recommended for any user due to great features and Brave can be customized to users preference. And for many who are using separate work and home accounts, brave comes with multiple account to use exactly for that.

Pros

Brave browser consists of many novel, innovative features such as Brave shields and Brave rewards making web browsing a comfortable experience. I really appreciate the brave shield function which removes almost all the unnecessary advertisements making web browsing easier for the users. And introducing brave rewards for users to earn some money while browsing the internet is another feature I like in brave browser. And compared with competition brave is much faster and does not overload RAM unlike many other browsers. Being able to customize almost anything and having multiple user profiles with separate accounts and ability to download torrent files are the best features introduced in Brave browser. Also increased security and privacy by blocking trackers and ads while saving both time and bandwidth is another pro feature is the Brave.

Cons

Although almost everything can be customized inability to create a desktop shortcut for main profile and being slightly slower than some browsers was noticed. And torrent downloading speed was lower compared with independent torrent applications.

Brave was faster and more user friendly while Google chrome was using most of my RAM while browsing internet.
