Well, the browser looks really good, but here are some problems
- Not the fastest.
- It can't render Facepunch correctly (I think it uses Internet explorer rendering, I don't know which version)
- ..not to be a troll/dumb/idiot, but Internet explorer.
I think that is all..
It looks nice and all, but there are some problems with it.
EDIT:
EDIT 2:
OOPS, forgot about a facepunch rule (if it counts here)
As a quick look on Wikipedia would reveal, Maxthon indeed uses the Internet Explorer rendering engine, Trident.

So no thanks. IE shells should just die.

I agree with you.
I only tried out Maxthon, because after the browsers i've used (Opera, Firefox.) I wanted to try out other browsers... such as Maxthon, Avant, etc. Does anyone have other browsers to reccomend?
Google Chrome ,Safari.
[QUOTE=Strikebango;23650251]Google Chrome ,Safari.[/QUOTE]
Tried em.
Google Chrome - Fast, really well, but the awesomeness gets old over time..
Safari - Tried it, but haven't got a chance to try the new one (I got restricted to a regular user account on XP.)
Any other browsers?
Steam browser fuck yeah
[QUOTE=paul simon;23650749]Steam browser fuck yeah[/QUOTE]
Agreed. But I want a browser that is different (besides, i've already tried it, lol.) I use it when I need to check out stuff for a small bit.

... :wtc: Too simple.
More along something that looks nice, and fast (and NO INTERNET EXPLORER CODING SHOULD BE IN IT. kay? kay.)
Why not just stay at one of the well known ones
[QUOTE=chamon;23652622]Why not just stay at one of the well known ones[/QUOTE]
I agree with you, but I wanna try new browsers. Such as the Firefox 4.0b1 browser, or any other browser. I wanna know if I could use it one day, when I feel like it.
AFAIK there's only a few web rendering engines so most of the browsers you're going to use are just going to be the same as others but with different shells. Just use chrome or firefox or something.

nope. Just hate IE.
Guys, before you bash Maxthon, try out their latest beta of version 3. It uses Webkit and has a very minimalistic interface. It's kind of like a mix between Opera and Chrome (even has a Speed Dial-like page).

It's still missing some features, but it's actually quite nice at the moment.
I vote for Opera, great browser.

I tried it, bad thing is, i'm using Windows XP, so I dont get much of the transparency. -snip- I'll try it again, but one thing, when I tried it for the first time, the Maxthon logo on the menu was the word "Menu" instead of the Maxthon logo.
(oh yeah, and one thing, I tried reinstalling Google Chrome, and I keep getting the error code 0x800405ff when trying.)
That, and..well, Webkit is EXTRA BETTER than trident. I'll give it a try.

Interface on XP is good enough, but there is one missing thing
-Menu icon is missing.
I think thats all
...I noticed that the menu button turns into your avatar when you log on.
...sweet.
