Updating the Chrome browser from Yandex has been discontinued, a project is being developed today.

Chrome from Yandex is version of google  Chrome, which was equipped with built-in. The functionality of this version differs only in some additions from Yandex, but in general it is the same Chrome.

Google chrome  Now it is in great competition with such browsers as. Many consider it faster, more lightweight and more convenient. The interface is built, of course, according to the current "browser" standard, namely the tab model. As for tabs, in Chrome there is no function for grouping tabs, as in Opera, but there is a function "Pin tab" as in Firefox. When you pin a tab, it decreases in size and displays only the site icon. Moreover, it is always at your fingertips. This is one of the options for selecting selected content on the Internet.

There are several features that only Chrome can boast of. This is an intelligent set of addresses, and the same formation of a visual bookmark bar. When you type the address of a site, Chrome uses the site directory from Google and guesses the sites that you need by the first characters you enter, which is very convenient. However, of course, we do not often enter the site address manually, but look for it in a search engine, or pin it to bookmarks, and here we can evaluate the visual tabs of Chrome. The fact is that they are formed independently, and those sites that you visit more often will be presented in bookmarks first.

The advantage of Chrome is that each tab is presented in the Task Manager as a separate process. That is, if you close the tab, then the memory is freed. Unfortunately, for example, Opera cannot boast of this.

Chrome from Yandex is a browser version for those who are not against using Yandex.Bar. If you need it, then download and use. If not, then the regular version is more suitable for you.

Yandex browser  - This is a browser that you can use for free. It was developed by Yandex. A distinctive feature of this program is the built-in viewer, designed to work with files related to the type of PDF. Also worth noting is the built-in player Adobe flash Player, which becomes indispensable when working on the network.

The integration of the browser with various services related to Yandex is noted. These include search, cloud storage, mail, as well as a translator, which allows you to achieve maximum convenience in work.

It should be noted that the developers of the program paid special attention to such an important aspect as security when working in the new Yandex browser. To do this, all the files that users download are additionally checked by a special system, which eliminates their danger.

Today, this type of browser is becoming very popular. This is due to its obvious advantages over other programs. One of the most important points concerns a simple and understandable interface for all categories of users. Before the eyes of the user are only those elements that are used most often. Special attention is drawn to the so-called smart line. Here you can enter not only the addresses of sites, but also certain search queries.

This browser is perfect for those users who have a low Internet speed. Thanks to the special “Turbo” mode, which turns on automatically, the work will become much more comfortable. As a result, work is performed much faster, and traffic is saved. Special widgets show the most important information for the user.

The program can perform translation. The browser provides the ability to translate from 14 languages. It can be not only words, but also pages, which is very convenient when visiting foreign sites. Thanks to the offer of a variety of photons, you can use your browser to show your personality to the user by choosing the option that matches the mood. Data synchronization is another important advantage. In addition, it is necessary to note the special measures that have been taken to achieve security. The browser alerts users who visit dangerous sites. All files that are downloaded are pre-checked.

Today, among many browsers, the undisputed leader is. Immediately after the release, he managed to gain universal recognition of users who had previously used mainly, and. After the apparent success of Google, other companies also decided to focus on creating their own browser with the same engine.

So there were several clones of Google Chrome, among which at first was. The functionality of both web browsers was practically no different, except perhaps in some details of the interface. After a certain amount of time, the brainchild of Yandex acquired a proprietary Calypso shell and various unique functions. Now it can be safely called “another browser created on the Blink engine” (fork of Chromium), but not insolently copied Google Chrome.

We installed two browsers, opened the same number of tabs in it and set identical settings. No extensions were used.

Such a comparison will reveal:

• Launch speed;
• The speed of loading sites;
• RAM consumption depending on the number of open tabs;
• Customizability;
• Interaction with extensions;
• The level of collection of user data for personal purposes;
• User protection against threats on the Internet;
• Features of each of the web browsers.

1. Startup speed

Both web browsers start almost equally fast. That Chrome, that Yandex.Browser opens in one and a little second, so there is no winner at this stage.

Winner: draw (1: 1)

2. Page loading speed

Before checking the cookies and cache were empty, and 3 identical sites were used for checking: 2 “heavy” ones, with a large number of elements on the main page. The third site is ours.

• 1st site: Google Chrome - 2, 7 sec, Yandex.Browser - 3, 6 sec;
• 2nd site: Google Chrome - 2, 5 sec, Yandex.Browser - 2, 6 sec;
• 3rd site: Google Chrome - 1 sec, Yandex.Browser - 1, 3 sec.

Whatever you say, Google Chrome’s page loading speed is at the highest level, regardless of how bulky the site is.

Winner: Google Chrome (2: 1)

3. RAM usage

This parameter is one of the most important for all those users who save PC resources.

First, we checked the RAM consumption with 4 running tabs.

Then opened 10 tabs.

On modern PCs and laptops, you can freely launch many tabs and install several extensions, but owners of weak machines may notice slight slowdowns in the speed of both browsers.

Winner: draw (3: 2)

4. Browser Settings

Since web browsers are created on the same engine, their settings are the same. Almost no different even pages with settings.

However, Yandex.Browser has long been working to improve its brainchild and adds all its unique elements to the settings page. For example, you can enable / disable user protection, change the location of tabs, and manage a special Turbo mode. The company plans to add interesting new features, including moving the video into a separate window, reading mode. Google Chrome has nothing like it at the moment.

Switching to the section with additions, Yandex.Browser users will see a predefined directory with the most popular and useful solutions.

As practice shows, not everyone likes the imposition of add-ons that cannot be removed from the list, and even more so after inclusion. In Google Chrome in this section there are only extensions for branded products that are easy to remove.

Winner: draw (4: 3)

5. Support for add-ons

Google has its own branded online store of extensions called Google Webstore. Here you can find many great add-ons that can turn the browser into a great office tool, a gaming platform, or an ideal assistant for an amateur to spend a lot of time on the network.

Yandex.Browser does not have its own extension market, therefore, he installed Opera Addons to install various add-ons in his product.

Despite the name, the extensions are fully compatible with both web browsers. Yandex.Browser is also free to install almost any extension from Google Webstore. But most notably, Google Chrome cannot install add-ons from Opera Addons, unlike Yandex.Browser.

Thus, Yandex.Browser wins, which can install extensions from two sources at once.

Winner: Yandex.Browser (4: 4)

6. Privacy

It has long been known that Google Chrome is recognized as the most arrogant web browser, collecting a lot of data about the user. The company does not hide this, nor does it refuse the fact that it sells the collected data to other companies.

Yandex.Browser does not raise questions about improved privacy, which gives reason to draw conclusions about exactly the same surveillance. The company even released an experimental assembly with improved privacy, which also suggests that the manufacturer does not want to make the main product less curious.

Winner: draw (5: 5)

7. User protection

So that everyone feels secure on the network, both Google and Yandex include similar protection tools in their Internet browsers. Each of the companies has a database of dangerous sites, upon transition to which a corresponding warning appears. Also, downloaded files from various resources are checked for security, and malicious files are blocked if necessary.

Yandex.Browser has a specially developed tool Protect, which has a whole arsenal of functions for active protection. The developers themselves proudly call it "the first comprehensive security system in the browser." It includes:

• Connection protection;
• Protection of payments and personal information;
• Protection against malicious sites and programs;
• Protection against unwanted advertising;
• Mobile fraud protection.

Protect is relevant for the PC version of the browser, and for mobile devices, while Chrome can not boast of anything like that. By the way, if someone does not like such custody, then you can turn it off in the settings and delete it from the computer (Defender is installed as a separate application).
