Surprise? BlackBerry’s Web Browser Is 3x Faster Than Internet Explorer or Safari


By Zach Epstein, BGR
More than a year ago, BlackBerry released an all-new phone and operating system meant to re-energize and modernize the brand. And though it never really caught on, tests pitting the BlackBerry 10 Web browser against mobile offerings from Apple and Microsoft saw BlackBerry’s offering smoke mobile Safari and Internet Explorer on the Windows Phone by a fairly wide margin.
Plenty has changed since then — Apple released iOS 7 alongside a major redesign, and Microsoft issued some updates as well — but one thing definitely has not: Results of new browser speed tests published recently by New Relic show that when it comes to loading Web pages, BlackBerry 10 still tops the competition.
According to New Relic, which analyzed more than 16.8 million page loads from early October through early November last year, BlackBerry 10 devices loaded Web pages in 1.55 seconds on average. The second-fastest Web browser, Opera Mini 4.2, averaged page-load times of 4.78 seconds.
In other words, the BlackBerry 10 browser is more than three times faster than its next-closest competitor.
Apple’s Safari browser on the iPad came in at No. 3 with an average page load time of 4.91 seconds, and no other native Web browser was even included in New Relic’s top-nine rankings.

Report: Google’s Robotics Plans Not as Sci-Fi as Many Were Hoping


image
 Reports of overworked and underpaid employees in Foxconn’s Chinese factories — along with allegations of child labor — have led to a number of public reforms for the manufacturer. The company has also publicly mulled over plans to build robotic factories to help circumvent such reports altogether.
A partnership could prove beneficial for Google as well, providing a real-world test bed for the company’s robotic creations. The move could also allow the company to ramp up manufacturing, reducing dependence on other companies should Google create more hardware. Most notably, Google makes the Chromecast, a web streaming device for televisions, and Glass, an as-yet-unreleased headset computer. 
Whether Google’s relationship with Foxconn continues beyond the trial stage will be determined in the coming years. Recently, Google has made an effort to expand manufacturing in the United States, first through its failed Nexus Q set-top media box and more recently by way of a plant in Texas that made Google-owned Motorola smartphones. Google’s recently announced plans to sell off Motorola may lessen its manufacturing load, however.
It’s worth noting that, while Foxconn’s most prominent facilities are based in China, the company has plants all over the world, including a $30 million Pennsylvania location set to open next year. Those plans, first announced in 2013, included a partnership with nearby Carnegie Mellon that would see the facility manufacturing, of all things, robotics.
