About Carbon Browse

Carbon is a Web3-ready open-source free browser on the Chromium engine. Carbon sets out to solve problems with both Web2 and Web3 browsers. 6 out of 10 users today use Google Chrome, which is slow and takes up storage on the user's device. Chrome and other Web2 browsers also don't provide sufficient protection of users' privacy.Web3 browsers like Brave collect no data but there is not enough incentive to use it. The team behind Carbon browser is developing a product that can provide the best user experience to everyone by making most of its features free and rewarding active users with CSIX.

Pros

  • Quick Loading Speeds

    Benchmark 0.5s loading compared to 3~4s loading on other Web2 browsers in the same engine.

  • Token Rewards with Value

    The CSIX token is intended to be used not only for in-app utility (Carbon Pro subscription and AdX campaigns). Carbon is building a network of partners where you will be able to spend CSIX.

Cons

  • Reported Performance Issues

    User reviews bring attention to app crashes and loading times being slow. Although they refer to earlier releases, there are also inherent engine limitations and drawbacks to be aware of.

  • Rewards Usable only on the Platform

    The browse-to-earn awards as of Q1 2024 cannot be withdrawn or spent anywhere else but the Carbon offerings. You can still upgrade your experience by going Carbon Pro or launch an AdX campaign.

Final Verdict

Even for users not interested in crypto, Carbon can offer quick loading and smooth browsing. CSIX holders can look forward to the partner network to use their browse-to-earn rewards.
