Versatile and lightweight web browser powered by the same engine as Chrome, boasting excellent rendering speed and a rich feature set. #Webkit Browser #Web Browser #Create Bookmark #Browse #Browser #Explorer
Portable SlimBoat is a relatively new web browser in its line of work, although this does not seem to be an impediment for its increasing popularity.
It’s powered by the WebKit rendering engine (a technology that Chrome and Safari use as well), which contributes to its ability to load web pages faster and with little to zero errors.
Portable SlimBoat is the to-go version of SlimBoat, with the exact same engine and features as the installer version, but with the added benefit of a no-installation package that doesn’t write to the registry.
Despite lacking eye candying elements, Portable SlimBoat is wrapped inside a streamlined and intuitive design, sporting a myriad of features, some of which we’ve seen in other web browsers and some of which are completely new.
The feature set that is common to the majority of navigators includes tabbed browsing, bookmark management, an automatic form filler, a downloader manager, a history browser, a popup blocker, a web inspector, as well as proxy support, to name the most important ones.
On the other hand, the list of abilities that are rarely to be seen in such applications encases an ad blocker, shortcuts to the most popular social networks, as well as a browser locker and a set or privacy tools for cleaning the history, the cache, various authentication information and virtually any trace of your browsing habits.
Our tests concluded that although it is a rich and speedy browser, it has a long way to go until it hits the top of its software category. It crashed twice while trying to access Softpedia’s homepage and scored a total of 285 points on the HTML test (out of 500), compared to Chrome’s 476 and Firefox’s 428.
On an ending note, Portable SlimBoat is a very promising browser, which could become competition for many navigators out there soon enough, with the right improvements.
