Samsung Internet 16.0 beta brings enhanced search results, adds page zoom, and more
Samsung Internet is one of the best Android browsers based on Chromium out there. In a way, it is much better than Google Chrome, it offers features such as the built-in ad blocker, a custom interface, and advanced privacy and security controls. Samsung recently released a new beta for the browser, which further enhances the browsing experience.
The beta version of Samsung Internet 16.0 based on Chromium 92 is here and includes enhancements to the search experience, protection from specific pixels, and page zoom support for phones and tablets.
The latest version offers an improved search experience. When you enter a search term in the address bar, you’ll see a list of relevant results that include possible answers, chips for search suggestions, and bookmarks and history suggestions.

For example, if you type “Weather,” the current weather for your location will be displayed under the address bar without loading search results. Note that this is not limited to Samsung Internet – Google Chrome has had this capability for a long time.
Additionally, as you type your search name into the address bar, search suggestions now appear as small chips instead of a drop-down list, allowing more results to be displayed on the screen.
Samsung Internet 16.0 beta is now able to identify and block malicious tracker types using a small, almost invisible image to track which websites you visit on the domain. The new Smart Protect feature on Samsung Internet will detect these images and make them useless.

Finally, Samsung Internet 16.0 beta adds a new access feature that allows users to zoom in on any web page on smartphones and tablets. You can try all of these upgrades in the latest Samsung Internet beta currently being released in the Google Play Store and Galaxy Store. As usual, a steady release will follow in the coming weeks.
