![]() ![]() Previously, if you wanted to browse things, you’d have to resort to Opera Mini. I used the Torch for a solid two weeks, and virtually every website I visited rendered faithfully on the Torch’s new browser, something I can’t say for the old OS 5 browser on other BlackBerries. Hopefully HPalm get together and update WebOS to a much newer version of WebKit with their next major platform update, because it's starting to look like the browser that needs the most help.īut ACID tests aren’t everything, especially the tests that essentially see how well browsers render obfuscated or intentionally broken code. ![]() WebOS arguably does the worst of the four, scoring a 92 with a number of very obvious rendering and XML errors. iOS now passes, but also has a few rendering errors in the top right which technically diminish the score. On all the Froyo devices I’ve tested, it fails a number of tests as evidenced by silver and grey boxes in positions 3 and 5, indicating failure of some DOM2 views and ACID3 competition tests. It’s interesting to note that Android 2.2 still doesn’t quite make it. By comparison, the old browser scores a 93/100 but takes minutes to complete the test, and is rife with rendering errors from failed tests. That said, it does do an exceedingly better job than the old browser. The new browser on BlackBerry 6 scores 100/100 but technically doesn’t pass perfectly due to a small rendering error in the top right, and being below 30 FPS for most of the test.
