 Seriously fast

In tests performed by PhoneArena, Puffin consistently outperformed any other browser both on synthetic JavaScript speed tests as well as real world cold page loads.

 Built-in reading mode

Reading mode allows removing everything on a page but the content. It removes ads, styling and anything else that could get in the way of a comfortable reading experience.
