Pros
Pro Built-in adblocking
Other apps make it difficult to block ads without rooting your phone or going through unoptimized add-on stores, but Link Bubble blocks them out of the box, making browsing much less crowded. Contains an optional "Allow Brave Acceptable Ads" So you can support the site you truly enjoy.
Cons
Con Hypocritical/deceptive stance on privacy and advertisement
Brave is advertised as a browser that respects your privacy and blocks ads while still supporting content creators. However, at the same time the company is making deals with Facebook, Twitter and others to whitelist their trackers and ads.
Con Fake privacy - ultra bloated with high level of "verbose" spyware, adware and ferocious telemetry
If you want to see with your own eyes to believe you must extract the installer, after that look for pak file and extract them to folders after that view the files inside that folders...
Con Same security-holes as Chrome
On the desktop: Brave uses the same browser engine as Chrome, meaning it has the same security-holes as Chrome. Chrome is a big target for hackers (being the most popular browser in the world), and a webpage that will hack Chrome may also hack Brave.
However, Brave has security features that Chrome doesn't (such as a built-in adblocker). Those features will stop many hacking attempts.
Con Dumbed down in the latest versions
In previous versions, Brave felt more like Firefox. Now it's been dumbed down, it feels more like Chrome/Chromium. For example: There's no menu-bar. And when you install Brave, it just installs - it doesn't give you any options on how to install it.

Pro Takes care of privacy and security
Takes privacy seriously by blocking ads and trackers and not tracking people's searches. Things like https everywhere and no tracking are standard with Brave. In most other browsers, things like these are optional at best.

Pro Very Fast and built in adblock.
The fastest browser out there. With the latest update Brave is my favorite browser on my PC and on my Phone. The built in adblock and the rewards system are amazing.

Con Uses Google as its default search engine
Quite ironic for the "privacy" browser.
