Well, it used to be the case that 3rd party browsers could never be as fast as Safari, since Apple didn't open up all of the web surfing API's to anything but Apple products. http://www.howtogeek.com/184283/why-third-party-browsers-will-always-be-inferior-to-safari-on-iphone-and-ipad/

With IOS 8, Apple changed this policy, which is why Mozilla finally decided to come out with a Firefox browser for the iPhone. http://time.com/2822625/iphone-chrome-faster/

Even given this level playing field, there's still quite a bit of difference in browser performance. Here's just one set of benchmarks, whih point to Safari and Firefox as your two best performing browsers. http://www.zdnet.com/article/and-the-best-web-browser-for-the-iphone-is/

It is my understanding that any browser running on an I device will use
the same API so there will likely be no appreciable difference in
performance no matter which browser you use.

Well, I haven't started using Firefox on my iPhone yet, but Firefox is
the browser I use on Windows, Android and Linux, so I need to try it out
on my iPhone, so I can have my bookmarks, log ins, history, tabs and
everything synced across all of my devices.

Dear,

I sometimes feel that Safari is slow on the iPhone. Is there a better
internet browser for us?
