# Google vs QQ浏览器

The clearest difference is rating: Google at 4.6 against QQ浏览器's 4.2. Google also leads on ratings volume (5.1M vs 1.1K) and chart position (#1 vs unranked). QQ浏览器's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Google sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $0.89 per month and QQ浏览器 sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $36.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Google holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google has 5.1M ratings behind it against 1.1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Google's written reviews are positive against 64% of QQ浏览器's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Google ships an update every 5 days, QQ浏览器 every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
