# Google Chrome vs Cốc Cốc

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cốc Cốc at none against Google Chrome's 25. Cốc Cốc also leads on ads (none vs shown). Google Chrome's advantage is ratings volume (3.9M vs 764) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Google Chrome sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Cốc Cốc asks for nothing beyond the download.

Google Chrome holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Chrome has 3.9M ratings behind it against 764, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Google Chrome's written reviews are positive against 63% of Cốc Cốc's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
