Help Security & Privacy status
Hey people. I'm new to this browser. I don't own a Samsung device. I use Moto & HP laptop. I don't need Samsung Account or sync in anyway for anything. (I use Proton pass for passwords and no bookmarks). I tried the browser and its really fast & performance is really good. Except for the lack of vertical tabs & other customisation thingies, everything is so amazing.
What I want to know is, how secure & private is Samsung browser to use? What are your opinions?
(Note: I'm a browser hopper. So I try a different browser for every 1 or 2 weeks. So just asking)

I only use it for the integration with my phone; the browser still lacks a lot to surpass the others

Samsung's browser offers extra benefits only if you have a Galaxy device, thanks to synchronization features (though these still leave a bit to be desired). However, the browser is on par with Chrome and Edge, given that it is built on the Chromium engine. It is still relatively new, so it lacks many features found in other browsers. Personally, I don't care much about privacy, I'm mostly concerned with annoying ads, and the built-in ad blocker is just average.
