Cons
Con Videos are compressed twice
In Flash mode, you get an interactive streaming video of a desktop browser running on their server, but this means that when you watch videos (a major use case for Flash mode), which are already compressed, it has to be lossy compressed again to get to you, with noticeable loss of quality. So it's better to watch videos with Flash mode off if you can. There's also a bit of lag when scrolling and such.
Con Flash mode has ads
You can also get an annual subscription to turn these off, but it's $10/year. That's kind of pricey when you can get Puffin Browser Pro with unlimited service for a single payment of $4.
Con Owned by a advertizing company
The same company which brought startpage.
Con Lag lag lag, freze freze freze
This needs to do something about it.
Con Depent on Google
Since red Chrome (that's what some people call it) is bases off chromium, it is dependent on all of google's dissensions.
Con Just a chrome fork
Like opera and yandex, its a chrome fork.
Con Mainly its just a old Chrome
It might be a copyrighted name of chrome which was pre- installed with many extensions from Chrome.
Con Only runs on Snapdragon CPU
