'Brave also uses less memory than other browsers, with an improvement of 40% over Chrome and 47% over Firefox. 'Brave saves an average of 27 seconds per page load against Chrome on macOS and 22 seconds per page against Firefox, and Brave uses 58% less data than Chrome to load those same pages,' the Brave team said in a pre-launch press release.

For example, the Brave team says websites load to up to three to six times faster than other browsers, resulting in significant memory and battery savings. The Brave team says that since it rolled out Brave Shields, the biggest benefit has been an improved performance. This feature is getting constant improvements, with the latest update arriving last week. For example, go to Settings -> Brave Ad Block, and you can enable additional filters as well as add your own filter at the bottom. Brave Shieldsīrave 1.0 also comes with a built-in ad blocker, anti-tracking, and anti-fingerprinting features that block online advertisers, analytics, and social media companies from bombarding users with ads and tracking users as they move across websites. The Brave browser already does an excellent job of blocking ads and trackers by default, but advanced users will appreciate more control over what is blocked and how.
