It's fast and clean, the colors offered gives you a good sensation when using it. Google Chrome is also ahead in terms of security, it will warn you if you try to access potentially dangerous sites.

The address box is called Omnibox, that prefix Omni tells us that we can do everything from within that box, in fact you only have to type the internet address you want to access or the word you want to search, it doesn't matter, once you type it, you can choose if you'll search for the word or if you will access that website. Google said that it was easy, fast and very usable, and that's what we have checked when we have downloaded and tested this amazing web experience. The M1 version of Chrome can be downloaded on M1 Macs on the Chrome website by selecting the "Mac with Apple Chip" option after clicking download.Everybody was surprised when Google decided to release a new web browser, its name: Google Chrome. Jetstream 2 best mimics web applications such as spreadsheets, and MotionMark 1.1 measures complex graphic animation techniques. Safari was the fastest browser of all, of course, having been designed by Apple, and it came out on top across all of the tests.Īccording to Ars Technica, the Speedometer test best mimics real life usage and that's where the greatest advantage between the two browser versions was seen.

In the Motion Mark 1.1 test, M1 Chrome scored 726.4, while standard Chrome scored 435.7.Īcross all tests, the native M1 version of Chrome performed between 66 and 81 percent better than the version of Chrome running through Rosetta 2. In a Speedometer 2.0 test, M1 Chrome scored 210, while standard Chrome scored 116, and in a Jetstream 2 test, M1 Chrome scored 156.9 and standard Chrome scored 93.1. Google earlier this week released a version of Chrome designed specifically for Apple's M1 Macs, and those with a new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, or Mac mini will want to download the Apple Silicon specific version of Chrome because it's going to run faster than the x86 version working through Rosetta 2.įollowing the release of the M1 version of Chrome, Ars Technica did a series of benchmarks using Speedometer 2.0, JetStream2, and Motion Mark 1.1, and in all cases, the M1 Chrome was much faster than the x86 version.
