Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: InBrowser at none against Dark Browser's 5. InBrowser also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 32%). Dark Browser's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
