  • A distinct user interface that places tabs on top of the browser window instead of right below the address bar.
  • An “incognito” mode that lets you browse the web in complete privacy because it doesn’t record any of your activity.

  • Malware and phishing lists that automatically update themselves and warn you of bad websites.
  • A new JavaScript engine built from the ground up for speed.
